*** ''[[Transformers Animated|Animated]]'': Blurr. gets trapped in a tunnel and crushed by its closing walls. After which his killer (in disguise) casually hands his cube-sized remains over to the nearest Autobot who has no idea what he just tossed down the disposal chute. Considering the show had no "real" deaths up until this point, this made the emotional impact even worse.

*** And who can forget the [[Transformers: The Movie|original movie]]? Where most of the [[Kill'Em All|first two seasons]]' cast has [[Dropped a Bridge on Him|bridges dropped on them]] in very graphic and sadistic manners, not counting those who died offscreen. Prowl melts from the inside out after being blasted by Scavenger, Ironhide has his computer-brains blown out execution-style by Megs, Optimus gets blasted and stabbed a dozen times(supposedly the fatal wound was due to a stab) while Hot Rod is held hostage, Kranix and another Lithonian are eaten by the Sharkticons, Gears gets digested by Unicron, the Conehead Seekers get chomped by Uni's robot form, and Ultra Magnus gets blown to pieces (originally was going to be drawn and quartered), [[Disney Death|although put back together shortly after]]. Shockwave was supposed to be stomped by Unicron, but they cut out the shot. Red Alert was also supposed to die by being shot in the back by Devastator, but that scene was never animated.
