'''Sentinel Prime''' is a Prime! A legendary warrior revered by Autobots and Decepticons alike, Sentinel was believed lost long ago but has now returned to turn the tide in the Autobots' favor!

==Fiction==
===''Revenge of the Fallen'' film===
Sentinel Prime led an expedition where it took him fourteen galactic convergences to get an echo of something.

Whether or not he is one of [[Seven Primes|the original Primes]] or in the later Dynasty of Primes is uncertain. He does however seem to be one of the direct ancestors of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]].

Sentinel Prime was mentioned in a rambling lecture of [[Sam Witwicky]]'s while under an [[AllSpark]] fragment-induced trance. {{storylink|Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen}}

Sentinel Prime was a direct descendant of the first Cybertronian, [[Primus]], and was believed to be the last of the [[Prime (rank)|Primes]]. He told tales to his much younger Cybertronian brethren of how the [[Dynasty of Primes]] had called upon a legendary artifact, the star-powered [[AllSpark (Movie)|AllSpark]], to give life to their world. But the AllSpark had been lost to history, and their world had tumbled through the cosmos without a star to orbit for eons.

Sentinel Prime had plans to rectify this, and he gathered followers who believed in his path to a new age of life on Cybertron. With the help of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus]], [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]], and their legions, they searched the planet for the legendary artifact and a way to power it. However, there were the [[Thetacon]]s, a tribe of separatist Transformers who disbelieved in Sentinel Prime's vision, and warred against him and his followers. This conflict ended when, with the help of [[Wheeljack (Movie)|Wheeljack]], a sun to orbit was brought to Cybertron, and the AllSpark discovered and energized.

Though Sentinel Prime had finally returned the forgotten concept of "freedom" back to Cybertron, he felt he no longer had a part in its path to the future. He was old and tired, and spoke in confidence to Optimus, wishing for the young Autobot to become the new Prime. Though Optimus was too humble to accept, Megatron overheard their conversation and became jealous of his "brother." {{storylink|Foundation issue 1}} Sentinel formulated another plan for Cybertron's future: it would be governed by Optimus's [[Science Division]] and Megatron's [[Defense Force]]. By having Optimus investigate the remains of the Primes's civilization, it would encourage him to believe in his lineage. {{storylink|Foundation issue 2}}

*In an early draft of ''[[Transformers (2007)|Transformers]]'', time stops as [[Sam Witwicky]] falls down the building [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] smashed, and Sentinel appears to him via the [[AllSpark]]. Sentinel would've clarified the history of the war and the relationship between Optimus and Megatron (when the writers intended them to be siblings) and given him a clue to defeating Megatron with the Cube.<ref>[http://badflipblog.blogspot.com/2009/09/tf1-amblin.html Blog post] from [[Ken Christiansen]].</ref>
*In an interview with MTV, Michael Bay is quoted as saying "Sentinel Prime is great. He's great...I can't tell you anything else, other than he's great."<ref>[http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1657670/michael-bay-transformers-dark-of-the-moon.jhtml Interview at MTV]</ref>

If it doesn't result in at least a few dings and scraped paint, '''Topspin''' isn't interested. To him, buckled and burnt armor are signs of a life well-led. He's proud of being one tough bot, and is more than happy to wear the scars to prove it.

He's one of the [[Wrecker]]s.<ref>http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2107707&id=1319780046</ref>

: Part of the first wave of [[Cyberverse]] toys, Topspin is a [[Legends Class|Legion-scale]] figure that transforms into a [[NASCAR]] [[wikipedia:Chevrolet_Impala#NASCAR_Sprint_Cup|Sprint Cup Chevy Impala]] stock car, specifically [[Wikipedia:Jimmie_Johnson|Jimmie Johnson's]] Lowes and Kobalt sponsored #48 car. Like the other NASCAR-based ''DOTM'' toys, both versions of Topspin lack the multiple small "contingency" sponsor decals found on a full-sized NASCAR racer.

:Though he has prominent claws on his arms, Topspin does have fists sculpted onto his forearms.

==Notes==
* Topspin's robot mode features "sunglasses", a bushy "beard" and a "[[wikipedia:mullet (haircut)|mullet]]", making him resemble a stereotypical NASCAR fan.
* According to a profile during FOX's coverage of the 2011 Daytona 500, the real-world Topspin prop car has 510 horsepower and a 11:1 compression ratio, making it a good bit more powerful than even the real NASCAR #48 it is based on!
* As part of the promotions for ''[[Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon]]'', the film prop versions of Topspin, [[Roadbuster (DOTM)|Roadbuster]], and [[Leadfoot (DOTM)|Leadfoot]] made appearances at the [[2011]] Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway on [[February 20]]th. They appeared both off the track as display cars, and on the track, participating in the ceremonial first lap.
* He's not the first [[Topspin (G1)|Topspin]] to be a Wrecker.

[[image:RoadbusterDaytona500trailer.jpg|thumb|300px|He ain't afraid of no roads. Just right turns.]]

When '''Roadbuster''' isn't out bashing Decepticons, the next likely place to find him is on a race track. If you can't find him there, then you'll probably spot him out for a relaxing ride, learning the roadways of Earth, under the control of his human partner [[Sergeant Recon]]. The two have grown so close that they don't even need to speak to guide each other on the road or in battle.
