Unicron, Galvatron or the Quintessons?

Will the new series, Transformers: Prime, have Unicron, Galvatron or the Quintessons (the creators of all the Transformers on Cybertron millions of years ago)? AdamDeanHall (talk) 15:02, 7 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

They show hasn't aired yet, and little to no plot has been revealed. Just wait. Mathewignash (talk) 18:16, 8 August 2010 (UT

Sources for new Autobots and Decepticons?

Where did all of these characters that weren't in the press releases come from? There's been nothing to suggest that Jetfire, Jazz, Blitzwing, etc. will be part of the cast, at least not yet, anyway. I get the feeling this might be the work of the same guy who put up those bogus actor names earlier...Also, where was it said that Andrea Romano replaced Sue Blu as voice director after she dropped out? 24.193.137.13 (talk) 06:07, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Unsourced human names

Okay, can we get a source on those new human characters' names? This is starting to look like that problem with the randomly-added Transformer names and actors all over again... 150.210.226.28 (talk) 20:35, 28 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Again with the unsourced actors?!

Seriously, who's putting these names here, and where did they get their ideas? I have heard nothing to indicate that Ironhide, Thundercracker, or Brawl will even be on the show, let alone who would play them. If no one comes forward with a source, I'm taking them off. 24.193.137.13 (talk) 23:10, 30 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

4 Seasons, yea right...

G1 was supposed to go on to headmasters and so forth, but got the shaft and wound up with a 4 episode season 4 covering the headmasters and targetmasters but not actually using the plot it was supposed to.

Beast Machines was supposed to be followed by transtech...which only appeared in the semi cannon comics.

(interestingly the makers of BW also canned reboot around the same time sadly this made a bigger plot hole than any of these cancellations, even animated and G1 put together)

Animated was cut short, and you could tell by the rushed finale. There was like the series it played major homages to, supposed to be a season 4. Funny how that works.

Case in point, any thing the states touches regarding transformers cartoons, is doomed to only have three seasons or less. The possible exception being that Beast Machines continues BW's plot...

Thank you for your time 75.84.122.182 (talk) 09:36, 8 November 2010 (UTC

In any case, there has been no official, sourced confirmation that this show will even have two seasons much less four. There needs to be sources, otherwise it's just rumor and hearsay, and if this keeps up, I'm going to have to ask for this article to be protected.Brittany Ka (talk) 12:35, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Another Article???

This may not have to do with this article but...

there is a Miko Nakadai article, that was previously deleted in October 2010. Shouldn't there be one for Jack, Raf and Agent Fowler?--WikiEditor44 (talk) 20:45, 23 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Non-neutral writing?

Has this article been tampered with by someone who works at "The Hub" or something? Most of this stuff isn't cited and every other sentence mentions the channel.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.187.76.46 (talk) 10:37, 24 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Lengthy, unnecessary information

Some parts of this article must be redirected or deleted altogther.

The information on charaters must be redirected to an article such as "List of Characters in Transformers Prime".
The Merchandise information must also ge given its own article.
Information on weekly airdates, local listings, and the i-tunes information must deleted, as this is considered advertising (see listing 5 of WP:NOPRICES).
Information about the cast can be incorperated into the characters list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Derezzolution (talk • contribs) 14:05, 11 June 2011 (UTC) arcee loves to dance[reply]

Second season

Strange how this page said that unicon would be a villian in season 2 without a source. Now it claims that the autobot will help Optimus Prime regain his memories without a source.P3771 (talk) 00:14, 14 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Indonesian dub version

I watched the Indonesian dub version on Global TV this morning. but i don't know which episode and since when it being broadcasted in Indonesia. can anyone confirm this? 114.79.62.115 (talk) 02:02, 24 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Characters

Created the Characters section with similar structure to that of the GA-class My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic article. Feel free to fix some errors. JSH-alive/^{talk/cont/mail} 10:02, 11 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Season 3 air date/episode title

I followed the link provided in citation note #14. The following web article contained an update, which I re-post here:

UPDATE: Fellow fans over at Seibertron.com, have reported an e-mail from Zap2it regarding this listing: Some kind of mistake has been made in which the Zap2It Transformers Prime episode guide has attributed an old episode of Transformers Animated (“Lost and Found”) airing on 2/15 as being a new episode of Transformers Prime. It is incorrect. This is being revised.

As such I'm removing the alleged air date for ep. 1 of S3. --76.115.36.89 (talk) 05:37, 14 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Major work needed!

This page is missing a LOT of information about the series. How about an episode list like every other show ever listed on Wiki? Major plot details are also missing from each season description. Very sad this that this "AdamDeanHall" person has taken it upon himself to rule over this page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.82.209.86 (talk) 12:59, 5 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

My butthurt

In the russian translation of the film I heard something, where light years were used as a time measure. Is it from original film or it is translator mistake?

Lesson learned

The Transformers franchise is based on two mecha toy lines originally created by Takara, the current Takara Tomy represents the franchise in Japan, and a Japanese studio was involved in the production of Prime. However, that doesn't always mean that I have to add Japanese voice cast (which I tried years ago). JSH-alive/^{talk/cont/mail} 14:39, 29 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Japan

The infobox lists Japan as a country of origin, yet the article has zero information on this. Did it ever air in Japan? Was a Japanese company involved in production? Why are Japanese actors listed in the characters’ articles? —67.14.236.193 (talk) 02:25, 31 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
