They'd have no choice but to seek out Starscream as he is the onlyone fit enough to rule decepticons.

I'm going to assume that was a joke.

I assume we're going by cartoon here. Cyclonus was spineless, Scorponok wasn't really a Transformer, Scourge just didn't have it, and Soundwave rocked.

talking just the cartoon here, cyclonus wasn't spineless, and he was clearly more intelligent in his plans than galvatron. i think scorponok means zarak? maybe? but we never really knew how good he could be. scourge? not a chance! soundwave, no matter how cool i think he is, he's still just a decepticon, and no leader to me. starscream? maybe he would be a good substitute, but i'm voting cyclonus but i must make it clear this is cartoon and this is a lesser of four / five evils.

*EDIT* sorry, i mean i'm just talking about the cartoon because i haven't read the comics. i don't presume to tell anyone what this thread is about. i like the idea of it being soundwave though, i should really read them.

Why? I think Starscream was about one of only 3 Cons who even bothered to pay attention to what was going on around them.

Soundwave as leader? Okay, he was one of the other Cons who paid attention to what was going on, but he only did so to better serve Megs. I don't think he could have led. The comic version, sure, but not the cartoon...

Shockwave didn't die in the movie. They never showed him dead, ever. They did, however, show 3 jets fly into Unicron's mouth and blow up, which look to me to be Dirge, Ramjet, and Thrust, but they show up in FFOD part 1.

There are lots of things in the script, if you don't see it happen in the movie, or talked about in an episode, it didn't happen. Sorry.

He was absent, just like Trailbreaker, Hound, Hoist, Tracks, Skids, blah blah blah.....

You are meant to assume that they are dead, missing, retired, whatever.... but it's never shown what really happens to any of the characters that didn't appear after the movie and you can't just assume that they died.

Cyclonus. Galvatron's number two and the natural heir to the throne. He is also more dedicated to the Decepticon cause and less self serving than possibly any Decepticon in history.

Yep. Cyclonus is the robot for the job.
