>"But muh Optimus would never kill!"
Oh shut the fuck up, Of all the things you can shit on Michal Bay for this is not one of them, In The G1 Movie Optimus fatally injured an entire wave of Decepticons before attempting to execute Megatron, In Prime you could see him dismember Decepticons on a regular basis in the background(Pulling their circuits out, Decapitating them) During his fight with Megatron Optimus ran a tire against Megatron's face till it created burnt marks, Then tried to execute him. Even in Bumblebee, The fucking darling film of "Geewwun" TF fans, You see him mow down Decepticons without remorse, And he's only there for like 2 minutes
