Despite that unintended consequence, Optimus Prime's death remains one of the most affecting moments in the franchise's history and enriched the mythos in ways that Hasbro couldn't have possibly predicted. Hasbro eventually saw the error of their ways, reviving the Autobot leader in the season 3 finale "The Return Of Optimus Prime" after a huge letter-writing campaign made them realize they had seriously traumatized a huge swath of their audience. To Hasbro, Optimus Prime was simply a 1984 toy that was discontinued and needed to make way for new product. Grimlock was known for his dialogue being spoken in the third person. He is usually portrayed as the leader of the Dinobots, a subfaction of Autobots who can transform into metal dinosaurs.

(March 2015) Grimlock is the name of several fictional robot characters in the Transformers robot franchise.

Optimus would muster one last bit of strength to mortally wound Megatron, but he died soon after the conflict was over. Megatron used Hot Rod as a shield, shooting Optimus multiple times as he collapsed. After plowing through most of the Decepticon soldiers, Optimus had a pitched battle with Megatron where it seemed he would come out on top before the naive young Autobot Hot Rod interfered in the fight.
With the Decepticons firmly in control of the conflict, Optimus arrived from Cybertron - with the Dinobots in tow - to help turn the tide of the battle. The leader of the Autobots met his untimely end at the climax of the Battle of Autobot City. TRF release Megatron a group of Decepticons and give out the location of the Autobots, the Decepticons and TRF began hunting them, the Autobots and Cade arrived in an abandoned city.
