    Default Who the bloody hell are you?

    TFTM: the scene where Daniel finds Spike, Bumblebee, Cliffjumper, Jazz etc. inside Unicron and has to shoot down the acid cover to save them, at the very end is a little yellow Autobot... WHO is that Autobot? We'll probably never know the official answer to this burning life question, but we can sure have fun guessing!
    Contenders include:
    * Bumper (aka Bumblejumper) - the little yellow Mazda 323 Autobot from the first year's line up of toys
    * Yellow Cliffjumper - he actually appeared in the very first episode of the G1 cartoon!
    * Hubcap - the only 1986 Autobot mini-car who is not know to have made a canonical appearance during the original G1 run (other than in only one issue of the Japanese manga series)... although arguably the lack of an orange face may rule this out.

    Why not Volks?
    Cos he's orange, and that Autobot is clearly yellow.

    Who do you think it is? Vote away!
    I personally think it's Bumblejumper.

    Great question. I never noticed this guy before. I'll throw my Blu-ray of the movie in tomorrow and have a look at him in 1080p.

    OK, I just had a spare 10 minutes. Sorry I don't have the ability to screen caps of Blu-ray as all my Blu-ray players are game consoles. But I'm now 99% certain it's Bumblejumper himself. The head is a close match.

    well, it couldn't be that only Jazz and Spike where the ones hanging in that conveyor belt going to the acid baths, so yeah it could be any other transformer that was randomly absorbed when the moonbase was eaten.... of course when Spike got rescued, you think they'd just stay there hanging? hahah As for who it is, well they didn't have enough screen time for me to see clearly and it had a black helmet head, Bumper has a yellow head.... must be someone else then....

    Helmet looks yellow to me...

    Also, it's not unheard of for the G1 cartoon to change helmet colours for characters compared to the toys.
    e.g. Grapple, Red Alert, Slag etc.

    In 1080p, you can see him clearly:


    Just looks like another bumblebee without horns. Could be Bumblejumper.
