1986 transfomers movie
I was watching the 1986 tf movie and realized something, some many characters arent in it. What happened to characters like, reflector, skyfire, dirge, Tracks, the stuniticons, ect. Do they ever show up in the G1 series again?

well, the stunticons do. The movie was written during the airing of the 1984-85 season, so any characters from the cartoons that are '86 toys, were not in the storyline at the time of writing. As for the others you listed, they don't show up again. Also, did you notice that there are only four dinobots?

For a couple of seconds, the 5th Dinobot, Snarl does make an appearance.
Also, Reflector IS in the movie for a few seconds.
A lot of characters were just used for background characters while the main focus was on the leading cast.
Look for Grapple, he's in the movie also

none
i think they were just mainly focusing on the transformers that would mainline the new shows
I don't know about the others but in the movie Dirge was seen getting gobbled up by Unicron with the other seekers Thrust and Ramjet. Each one of them came back however in later seasons after the movie.
I suppose that Sunbow/Hasbro focued on the other characters because that was the new line to sell.

I noticed that a couple characters, like Gears and someone else I can't remember, are in the credits as voices. I don't remember them in it at all! Perhaps they were one of the agonized screams heard when they were dropped in the vat of acid?

I just watched it again in slow motion ( no I have not gone nuts, it was hust so I could see myself ) and I noticed several Autobots that I had not previously -
We see Arcee dragging an Autobot and putting him next to a blown to bits Wheeljack.
We see Huffer ( god I love the identify feature, I can match the toys to the characters that I see on screen ) in the bit as the Decepticon controlled shuttle is coming in to land at Autobot city.
We see Dirge as the first to see Galvy coming.
We see Sunstreaker and Hound in the shuttle with Optimus Prime.
And the funniest part in slow motion is when the Junkion kisses Grimlock, you can see the surprise register on grimlocks face.

That would be Windcharger! It's funny because that was actually supposed to be Smokescreen dead, 'cause Wheeljack shows up in the Victory series, apparently younger in age and experience then Perceptor,Snarl wrote:We see Arcee dragging an Autobot and putting him next to a blown to bits Wheeljack.
