With the movie just around the corner, I put together my wish list of second tier characters I hope to see in the Movie. Yeah, yeah, we all know Optimus and Bumblebee are there, but let's dig a little deeper, here are 5 characters that I think were the coolest of the cool!

1. Soundwave
Soundwave is the ultimate opportunist & will use anything he can to advance his status in the eyes of Megatron. He is indispensable due to his ability to eject his tapes (Frenzy, Laserbeak, Ravage, Rumble) and gather important information for the decepticons. He also has the ability to read minds through his soundwaves.

2. Jazz
This Porshe screams style as he is the break-dancing right hand man of Optimus Prime. He loves the Earthen culture and uses a variety of tricks to get the job done. Bumblebee is a stud, but the movie will lack pizzaz if it doesn't spotlight Jazz.

3. Grimlock
The independent leader of the dinobots, would take over the kingship of Optimus if he could get away with it. A valiant warrior who loves to tear into decepticons but can be a distraction when he argues with the leader of the autobots. I am not sure if they can weave the dinobots into this plot, but if they can pull it off, all kinds of Grimlock fans will be overjoyed!

4. Ultra Magnus
The "other" autobot semi-truck, offers a contrast to Grimlock's stubborn attitude. Ultra Magnus loves to be a follower and carry out the orders of his master Optimus Prime. A loyal, dependable giant, that offers heat seaking missiles capable of striking from over 30 miles away.

5. Devastator
The result of the six Constructicons- Scrapper, Scavenger, Bonecrusher, Hook, Long Haul and Mixmaster- joining together to form a single giant robot. Devastator has one goal in mind -- destroy everthing. Standing 60' tall, and with the weapon abilities of its seperate parts, his only weakness is his akward slow motions and low IQ. I thought he was the coolest creation, and it would be sweet to see him form on the big screen. To bad all my old toys are missing parts and I can't constuct him in real life....(yes, I brought out the old box and had to give it a try).
