    Thinking once again about how interesting and potentially compelling the idea of human distrust and government persecution of Cybertronians after Chicago was turned into an occupied war zone is and how that’s wasted in a movie like Transformers: Age of Extinction

    Age of Extinction Hound Army Camo ver. A limited exclusive from Japan that was only available with the purchase of the movie. A redeco of the voyager toy, it's very flattering to its subject. Depicting a Hound in his prime rather than the dilapidated and bloated guy in the movie. #Transformers

    LRP I choose to believe that when Optimus Prime says "I have never killed a human" later in the film despite clearly killing lots of guys there, it's not because Age of Extinction is a strange and confused film, it's that he doesn't view member of ICE style organisations as human.
