If you could bring back one pre-movie character

Shockwave was supposedly meant to die when Unicron's hand came down but he appears and speaks after that point, we don't actually see him die in the movie and he's not referred to as being dead in season three like they did with some of the autobots whom we didn't see die.
Then again Shrapnel shows up again in the movie after he died and in season 3 even has a line of dialogue. There is a miscoloured Shockwave in Five Faces of Darkness not that it counts for much given the huge amount of animation errors in those episodes. -

For characters who vanished without explanation I'd choose and Hound, and Sky/Jetfire. Two of my favorite characters from the first season.
I loved how Hound appreciated Earth and all it's beauty so much. It would have been interesting to see how he'd adapt to living life back on Cybertron.
Skyfire just always seemed like he had potential as a character but they never utilized him well enough.
As for those who vanished with explanations:
Prowl is my #1 choice. Would have been nice to see him adapt to Rodimus' leadership and how he'd handle that considering he was once Prime's second in command. I don't think his logical brain could handle Rodimus' style of leadership and could create a lot of internal conflicts within Autobot ranks.
Of course this is assuming they'd give the characters proper development which was never a real strong point of the show.
Always really liked Skywarp as well and would have been nice to see him continue but seeing he was reformatted into Cyclonus/ Cyclonus' Armada they couldn't really have the two at the same time. -

Skyfire had an interesting debut and backstory, but then after being on for just a little bit he just vanishes. I always liked Thundercracker's voice and his blue and white color scheme, as with Skywarp he was reformatted so having him back wouldn't really make sense.

Yeah, it's fun for me as a Skywarp fan that he was given second life. He does live on.
Would've been fun had the lot of them each had to deal with their former personas like Galvatron-Megatron did.
Esp fun would've had Ghost of Starscream pissed off that Skywarp & Thundercracker are out tearing up the galaxy alive while he's stuck in a tomb lols.
At least I can laugh at that irony, I can't stand Starscream. -

Thundercracker, Skywarp especially.
I think it would have been really cool to have delved into early Cybertronian War history when it was Megatron, Soundwave, and the 3 jets. I think Thundercracker mentions the Guardian robots "really giving us a pounding" in the episode where they find the Guardian robot body. It would be cool to see more stories about this.

No one mentioned Skids. He was an underused character that needed more character development. I think he only spoke twice during the second season.
It would have been nice to see the old female Autobots again lead by Elite-One.
What happened to Reflector?Use the Force.

Skids was pretty interesting. I remember there was one full issue that spotlighted his character in the old Marvel comics. He became friends to a girl that washed him and took him to different nature areas. I think that had something to do with his bio-card being a "naturalist." I can't remember the exact issue but I think it was No. 20

I'd try to stop the whole movie from happening and would've got them to make a 2nd TV series to introduce all the new characters instead of killing off all the best ones. We got ripped off by only getting 2 seasons with the original guys who were the whole reason for the popularity.
