Hasbro Q&A/September 2010: Answers

Read September's submitted questions!

1. How is Shattered Glass's evil Alpha Trion consistent with the revelation in Transformers: Exodus that Alpha Trion is one of the original thirteen Transformers and a multiversal singularity? At BotCon 2009, it was explained by Forest Lee that there is no Shattered Glass version of The Fallen specifically because of his status as a multiversal singularity.

The official story of the original 13 and specifically Alpha Trion has not been explored fully in the modern continuity that Transformers War for Cybertron, Exodus, and Prime are a part of. Anything you know from past generations of the brand may or may not be factual in the new continuity. Going forward in the modern continuity the full extent of Alpha Trion will be revealed, but he will no longer have Multi-verse jumping powers or abilities.

2. If Unicron's mission is to consume everything in the multiverse, why does he fire projectiles? Isn't that ultimately counterproductive? Doesn't he just have to go eat them up later?

Unicron like any body has many anti-bodies and attack mechanisms to protect himself in a battle (Missiles, weapons of all sorts). We assume his consumption isn't to consume everything in the universe it is to consume everything Cybertronian.
