Truth be told, if you think about it... He is not dead. Granted, he was disassembled and had his spark removed. But in truth, they never said that his databanks (if he has any) were deleted or removed. So he may be a husk now, but it does not mean that he is gone for good.

And besides... He could always do what Starscream's ghost did by crossing time and space, and may have inadvertently bonded with your Breakdown toy.

I can keep pretending it's Lex Luthor in there.

Here are examples of toys from the toyline:

Not much of a big example.

<clipped for space>

A real example would be the original Ratchet's toy, which has the shoulders in the wrong position, no back kibble and a seat instead of a face.

How? Two words: "Project Damocles".

Silas is given a bizarre new lease on life, and approaches Megatron with a plan to join the Decepticon ranks.

RIP Breakdown.

This is more of a take on "Autobot Spike" than the Headmaster tech.

Hmmmm I don't think either fit. It's more like Spike and Daniels exo-suits or a human protector shell. Silas definitely doesn't turn Into a head or have his mind taken out of his body. Oh oh or like in g1 season 3 when cobra commander transplants the captured Autobots minds and the criminals drive their mindless bodies.

Edit: though the criminals weren't surgically attached, so I guess it isn't like that either.

He's not in any slumber. He's dead. And he's not coming back. That would go against their motto: "Once we kill a character, we kill a character. They won't come back."

Do you want to teach kids that you can come back to life if someone takes over your body?

I think there is a possibility.Breakdown's body is intact,his head is not damages(Except the eye of course) he just needs some energon to power him up and go...but of course if it was that simple dark energon wouldn't make sense would it?
I just miss Breakdown

I'm not holding my breath.

All that information they acquired over time with careful study.

I don't know why people hope and hope for characters to come back after they die. The writers said themselves, a thousand times, that they aren't going to bring back a character after their dead. If they're dead, tough luck; keep crying.

Sure, I'm sad Breakdown's dead. Sure I'd give anything for Breakdown to come back, but it's not going to happen. It's the unfortunate truth.
