	* John and Ashley began by noting that the [[Machinima]] ''Combiner Wars'' series garnered 120 million views globally, and that development on ''Titans Return'' and ''Power of the Primes'' series are forging ahead. ''Power of the Primes'' won't debut until 2018, so there wasn't much they could reveal about it... except that Optimus Primal won the global fan-vote, meaning he'll be in the line! They will be doing sneak previews at various points in Primal's design process, though how this would happen was not elaborated upon.		* John and Ashley began by noting that the [[Machinima]] ''Combiner Wars'' series garnered 120 million views globally, and that development on ''Titans Return'' and ''Power of the Primes'' series are forging ahead.

	** They also confirmed that "Unknown Evil" was [[Deathsaurus (~~Victory~~)\|Deathsaurus]], and that he was the second-most vote-getter; that Ultra Magnus was third; and that Star Saber was last.

	** Given the fictional timeline of the Prime Wars Trilogy, it was said that Optimus Primal would be a younger, pre-''Beast Wars''/pre-Maximal version of the character.
