Does Cliffjumper always die all the time? 

My answer to this video would be no cuz, I'm much more appealed to the Cliffjumper that he never dies, one of the smallest autobots & is a red clone/version of Bumblebee & I think he & Bumblebee would make a fine duo. What would you think?

To answer the first question is probably to implement a simple simple psychological trick. since he resembles bumblebee in a lot of continuities (and general audiences would see him as a red bumblebee) and bumblebee is the go-to kid appeal character, they can use his death for the shock value to get a similar reaction to killing bumblebee without the backlash and the bad marketing move of actually killing bumblebee. As for the recolouring, hey developing toys isn't that cheap considering the complexity of some of the lines, so if you can use almost the same parts and moulds for 2 figures you've halved the price (or significantly reduced if one is obviously more popular than the other) of developing that single figure. This leads to said character being more tempting to implement in future series or have more attention as they are going to be made into multiple products. Starsceam and the seekers are in a similar situation.

@@julyleonard Well, it’s hard to tell but, at least in the original G1 figures, they are two different models of car from two different manufacturers. While it’s true that both the Porsche and the Volkswagen have their origins in Nazi Germany (The Volkswagen, or “People’s Car” was a design called for by Hitler himself) and they are similar in some respects, they are very different cars. Cliffjumper is a 911 series Porsche, which no self respecting Gearhead, such as myself, would ever mistake for a Volkswagen “Beetle” like Bumblebee. To me, that makes them very different and not a “repaint” at all.

@RodimusPrimal Cliffjumper is a Porsche 911. Not a 924 like stated in the video. The 924 has its engine in the front of the car while the 911 and the Beetle have engines behind the rear axle making them rear-engined cars (Not to be confused with mid-engine cars like the Porsche Cayman). Not trying to nitpick you, I’m just a Gearhead trying to help out with the details.

I just assumed that the reason why Cliffjumper died in the bumblebee movie, was because the bumblebee movie seems to call back to multiple previous transformers series for the sake of nostalgia, as we see many of the G1 inspired designs in majority of the other transformers besides bumblebee, who is designed based off of the Michael Bay bumblebee, and then there were multiple other things, I don’t remember what other things I found to be calling back to the transformers prime series, but I just figured that Cliffjumper dying in the beginning of the movie in the hands of the Deceptacon‘s was really a call back to that for all the transformers prime fans who are watching the movie. I’m no longer Transformers fan now, but I’m a nostalgic sucker , which is why I watched it. I tend to delve deep in to childhood nostalgia win distressed, and I’ve had a pretty stressful move, which is why I’ve been delving into transformer stuff lately, which is why I watched it. I tend to delve deep in to childhood nostalgia when distressed, and I’ve had a pretty stressful move, which is why I’ve been delving into transformer stuff lately

Cliffjumper has a history of dying just like the dumbass theme of Bumblebee being a mute in all of the live action movies. Michael Bay really ruined the Franchise. Thank goodness for the Bumblebee prequel, minus Cliffjumper dying again. Lol

Yup he just keeps getting hit by veicon

Adrian Carpenter Bumblebee isn’t a prequel dude,this has confirmed many times that it’s a reboot

I called him CJ or cliff

Don’t make suicide jokes.... Just don’t......

I'd imagine that hes used to dying after many years of kicking the bucket

HES LITERALLY ONLY FUCKING DIED 3 TIMES. Did you even watch the video?

@@gezi5927 those are like all his appearances lol.

@@user-pj7ur2pk4t he's the uncle ban of transformers

Myloprime not even close

Not even close Cliffjumper: 4 times Optimus: every time

@@weik-2936 cliff has a very high death count for his appearance time.

@@user-pj7ur2pk4t starscreams is higher

True.

Yes yes yes yes

He didn't even talk in the episode "Predatory".

@@basedpota anyone except optimus and ratchet and arcee and bulkhead and bumblebee and soundwave and knockout and shockwave and airachnid and predaking and-

@@dragonlord3376 Technically, Prime and Bee died for a short while

They probably only got the rock since they knew he would die so early

@@ALJ9000 technically Prime is dead in transfomers prime. He gave up his spark to save cybertron

Hey! I love Green Mario!

He is technically Green Mario, because his last name is Mario. They are the Mario Brothers, Mario Mario and Luigi Mario

@@sidelink8448 well yes but its not right to call luigi "green mario" because throughout the years he became more than just a clone of mario, he became a individual

@@sidelink8448 botw links official name is link link as well wich is brilliant

Mario and Luigi have a much bigger difference between them than bee and cliffjumper

And maybe there's one where they're equally popular

And maybe there's one where Glyph isn't obscure and Cliffjumper's obscure.

@Absently1218 2118 "maybe" and "parallel universe"

Yeah maybe Cliffjumper got buffed up and appeared in six movies and Bumblebees punk ass was the one to keep dying. F**k you Bumblebee movie, F**k you!

Not really no, only 4 recorded instances of Cliffjumper dying in all of the Transformers multiverse

That’s why he’s dead every movie 😂

Boi

Is it bad I laughed at it?

He's laughing at how jank the animation was in that scene

Sounds like Mickey Mouse

He didnt die in dw, energon and g1 cartoon. Or the marvel comic. Since he is the shattered glass continuity

Love that movie

What If Cliffjumper Get's Killed By Galvatron In Season 3?

You’re right because when all the others were Dying he’s survived Surprising

He dies in the bumble bee movie

He did nothing just like you said lol

he died

Not really, He's only ever died 4 times, Optimus and Starscream are the real Kenny's especially since they always come back

@@weik-2936 "only 4"

Funny, I was all like ”Oh my god, they killed Cliffjumper!” when I watched Bumblebee.

At first I thought you said "Kennedy", still not wrong

Waspinator is the Kenny

@Mikhail G yep yeeted in the first act TWICE. Once as himself once as a zombie. No luck poor guy.

blinded journeyman I’d say he had a decent life since he had the Rock’s voice.

@@basedpota before that, he had Nolan North's voice in FoC

Come to think of it, I wonder if Hasbro was condsirering him to return as Cliffjumper in Bumblebee.

Considering*

@@matthewreynoso6904 well yeah, but that may have not been the case at all though ☹️😔😞😔

I was so excited when they announced Dwayne Johnson as Cliffjumper, but in hind sight that alone was telegraphing his fate. I should've seen it coming.

@@Ironlantern723 yeah....we could hope that Dwayne “the Rock” Johnson reprising his voice acting role as Cliffjumper, potentially in a live action TF reboot film....

I agree with you 💯, cliffjumper is his own character. And back during the spring time, TAKARATOMY together with Hasbro, Transformers Generations:WAR FOR CYBERTRON EARTHRISE, have sold the Cliffjumer deluxe figure.

Ritual mocking

lucky i have your recent earthrise toy

You are your own character, Cliff!!! You NEVER died in G1!!!

Clifpooper

Yup.....poor Yamcha-Jumper

Except... That they dont

Hi blitzwing

RW:yeah almost reminds me ok Jazz and Blurr,when it comes to death in the series ,movies,cartoon shows,and video games.😓

Jason Tachin Jazz and Blurr don’t die a lot, Optimus and Starscream do on the other hand. Dirge is also unlucky.

Oh you see that is because he does.

All hail Starwing(Starscream and Blitzwing fusion)

VELOCIRAPTOR GREEN 2019!!!! Lol

True asf

Mirage even has foot prints on the Ark.

DECEPTICON SHOCKWAVE777 wait what

why udothat

G1:Does not even get killed,just stop appearing in the show all together. Unicron Trilogy:This is not the cliff Jumper ı know! Tfa: Secretary that has 5m of screen time.

As a cliffjumper fan I agree, people think he dies like 100% of the time

If by a lot you mean 4 times in total, and if by recently you mean once in 2010 and then didn't die again until 2018

@@mr.jm2214 except no, Continuities Cliffjumper dies in: Prime, IDW G1, Bumblebee, Shattered Glass Continuities Cliffjumper lives: G1 Cartoon, Marvel Comic, Marvel UK, Classics, Animated, Energon, and various spin-off realities from those

ikr bumblebee would be cool if he had that helmet that look like a it had small anteana aka the G1 helmet

You can have that stupid bayformer Bumblebee to thanks for that, that damn thing ruin everything

we are getting him in earthrise happy new year

maybetoby he’s died less than most transformers characters. Shut up

@@gezi5927 it was a joke, not a dick. Don't take it so hard 😜

Don't forget Sunstorm. Dirge, Ramjet, and Thrust are retools and sometimes redecos of Starscream too. Also Slipstream in one or two cases when name isn't being used for a GI Joe or minicon... (The WFC toy is a retooling of Starscream)

Prowl = Bluestreak Jazz = Smokescreen Inferno = Grapple Huffer = Pipes ...Should I go on? Or are we getting the picture that early Hasbro was just cheap as fuck, and double painted everything to be able to sell more shit.

@@Devillionaire Actually Smokescreen is another one of the Prowl/Bluestreak mold. But that is not to take away from your greatness. But let's be honest and say that we'd all buy the toys again if they were recolered from shattered glass.

@@jdavis6053 You mean from Bumblebee? Pft, that's not a Blitzwing, that's a Starscream.

@@sunstormtheyellowsuck-upst401 he's a redeco of Jazz in ROFT Toyline so he's right and you're right

Thanks. I spent a good 2 hours making sure it looked right!

Wish bumblebee would die even once

He did in prime

@@nathanchoe5445 but he came back to life

@@mro-aviation He did in the IDW Comics And in that Transformers/GI Joe Crossover Comic And in the Marvel Comics And I THINK in the Dreamwave Comics too

Yeah he's one of my favourite Autobots

Especially as of late. G1 Cliffjumper is still around bending Decepticon metal.

​@@RodimusPrimalI had the yellow version of him. I think it is a continously intentional slap in the face to Casey Kasem

Torri Taite Cliffjumper survived the movie. They should have treated Casey Kashem a lot better. The situation should have been handled a lot better. Yes he like a lot of the other original characters should have been used in Season 3. As I have felt in the past. Season 3 lost the balance that seasons 1 and 2 had. Actually Cliffjumper did appear quite a bit during the Dreameave run etc.

Cliffjumper was an old character most season 1 characters only mFe one or two apperances in season three

@Oliver Deacon That's true. Unfortunately you stopped seeing him more or less by the end if the animated movie and Kasem no longer did anything for them after that except for maybe that one line in the episode "Chaos".

@@charlesjensen1002 The team shouldn't have gone through the dictator and his organization in Season 3. I feel that they should have made a different corrupt dictator from a country that doesn't exist.

The Rock: “You’re welcome!”

I was literally just thinking about that joke but it seems I'm one year late

Same here

@@blastatron2007 Glad we share how he should be handled in the future

Cliffjumper is getting an extremely G1 accurate toy in Earthrise, equipped with the cannon he tried hitting Megatron with. He's an original mold too, and not a red Bumblebee.

@HaLOPLaYER M6G You mean Nolan North? Id take him too

Nolan North is awesome as Cliffjumper voice in Fall of Cybertron.

@@omegaus817 I think hes the best one personally

I doubt The Rock would accept it.

@@VicEntity Why not? He does tons of voices wouldn't he be thrilled to be a main character?

His one of my favorite characters to.

Same, cuz my favorite is the G1/Classics version even as a clone of Bumblebee.

I liked him as Cliffjumper!

I definitely! Agree it should matter more than any other series.

Brothers from another Cyber-mother.

Well need a bumblebee first

Ratbat 1986 fucked up😂😂

We can get it repainted as bumblebee, justice

I know you probably know already, but just in case you don't, he's getting a G1 accurate figure, equipped with the rocket launcher he tried to hit Megatron with, in Earthrise, and it's a new mold, no red Bumblebee in sight.

Yes

Yeah but Cliffjumper only dies twice... Prime and Bumblebee. Other than that he's alive and well in every continuity whether it's comic book or cartoon from 1984-1999

Yoy mean red chasis

Lol.... From now we should called Bumblebee as Captain Bee 😏 maybe cliffjumper should painted in blue as science officer or doctors 😂😂😂

I dont even watch Star Trek and I got the joke

Perhaps if he got a repaint he wouldn't die all the time

@@bozo0727 He was joking as well idiot

Optimus Prime is cybertronian kenny.

@@gamingguru2k6 so is jazz

Cybertronian Sniper that would be dirge. Or at least the Kenny of the decepticons

It hasn't become a reoccurring thing to kill off Cliffjumper since Prime, That was his second death ever, and that was in 2010, he didn't die again until Transformers Unicron and Transformers Bumblebee in 2018, so for 8 years Cliff was fine, out of all the Transformers characters he still has one of the lowest death rates across continuities

Do you recon Matthew Lillard (Shaggy's current voice actor) should do Cliffjumper (Similar to his G1 counterpart)?

His original toy was a Bumblebee repaint so he pretty much was a repaint from the start

It took me longer than I expected to finish. I had to rewrite a few things during, plus I had a few family events to handle. Glad you enjoyed it!

@@RodimusPrimal I enjoy all of your videos. Thank you, sir! How has your Walmart been treating you lately? Mine is STILL completely bare other than the $50 G1 Optimus cabin. As far as I know, they have only received 1 shipment of Siege. And all I saw of that is the Hound I picked up. There are so many toys I want from this line but I MUST have that Ironhide!

Yeah, I think it was the combination of rushed dub work, production, and many instances of mis-translations. XD energon ehh, I'm mixed on it, but enjoy the unicron trilogy overall. Armada and cybertron were fun and had a ton of rad designs!
