At his age I'm skipping the 86 movie; he has a pretty strong attachment to prime and ironhide. I'm not going to sugar coat the world for him too much as he grows but I'm pretty reticent to have him see a parental type figure killed on his fave cartoon

In any case, what's season 3 like? Are there many references to the dead autobots? How is primes resurrection handled etc?
Don't shield him. Death is a part of life and everyone must face it at some point in their lives by seeing someone close die. Sometimes it happens when you are young and sometimes when you are old, you never know.

Probably best for him to be partially prepared for its existence in a 'make believe' cartoon form than knowing about it first hand in the unfortunate event of a loved one passing.
