Was Primus Cool?{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

Cool? As in cold to the touch?! Heaven's no! Primus is warm and full of life! Ha!{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:Vector Prime "answers" a fan's question.|Vector Prime "answers" a fan's question.{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

Ask Vector Prime is a recurring feature where humans could submit questions about Transformers. Based on unknown criteria, Vector Prime selected certain questions and answers them to the best of his ability. Vector Prime will sometimes 'misunderstand' a question he'd rather not answer.

Vector Prime is aware of Transformers as fiction and as a toy line such as in the Marvel UK letters pages, which were answered by Transformers who were even shown working in Marvel UK's office. Vector Prime explains this as being aware of which universes were manifested as fiction in the Quadwal Cluster.

The column has occasionally provided important information not found anywhere else and, in the fan-run revivals, has clarified (and created) lots of obscure trivia.

Hasbro website

"Ask Vector Prime" started as a feature on Hasbro's official Transformers website, back during Transformers: Cybertron. The questions answered by Vector Prime varied widely in nature, but most concerned the universe where the search for the Cyber Planet Keys took place, the toyline and cartoon in Hasbro's own universe which parallel said search, or Vector Prime himself. Unfortunately, updates were rare, and ceased entirely after Vector Prime became one with time itself. Which is fair enough.

Through the site, Vector Prime had revealed the existence of two Transformers who have not been seen in any other form: a female Alternator, apparently from his home universe, and a Mini-Con with a disco ball alternate mode. He has also mentioned that he has met both Alpha Trion and Alpha Q, that, "yes, she is a girl," that he considers Safeguard his best friend, and that he is aware of (and impressed by) the story of Beast Machines. Additionally, it was here that he stated that "I am not here to blend." However, when asked about his weight, he simply said it depended on what planet he was on, and made no further comment on the subject.

It was this column that confirmed the Cybertron cartoon took place ten years after the end of Energon, and confirmed that Cybertron Sideways was the same character as Armada Sideways.

The AllSpark Almanac

Ask Vector Prime made a comeback in The AllSpark Almanac II in the form of easter eggs scattered throughout the book written in Cybertronix lettering. While questions were solicited on Jim Sorenson's blog a few months before the book came out, the few responses to that request seem to indicate that most of the questions were written by the Almanac II's authors.

Later, more questions and answers appeared in The Complete AllSpark Almanac.

{{#switch:{{#sub:xx|2|14}}|dark cybertron=}}

From May 13 to September 30, 2015, Ask Vector Prime made yet another comeback in the form of a Facebook page created by the Transformers Collectors' Club as part of the Club's prelude material that led up to the BotCon 2015 comic story "Cybertron's Most Wanted". Similar to the original version from Hasbro's website, this new installment enabled fans to once again post actual questions for Vector Prime to answer on his Facebook.

Vector's answers continued to include a mix of jokes, evasions, and intentional misunderstandings. Many answers focused on Vector Prime's own history. A lot of universal stream designations were identified or introduced this time around, and many previously-unnamed or partially-named individuals and teams would receive official names. A new type of answer, elaborate stories set in the distant futures or pasts of obscure universes, became a regular part of the feature.

On 5th June, he ended up in a crossover with sister Facebook page "Rook - Axiom Nexus News: Investigative Journalist" when Rook started to ask why he sounded like Rhinox. Prime trolled him for a while until Rook accused him of being a guardian of time and space pretending to be an old duffer, at which point Vector Prime complained to the journalist's editor.

Guest Columnists

One of the hallmarks of the Facebook edition of Ask Vector Prime was the frequent inclusion of guest columnists. This started when the column took a hiatus between June 27, 2015 and July 8, 2015 before coming back, to facilitate...

Ask Sideways

He has many insightful comments about your mother.

Q: Dear V̶e̶c̶t̶o̶r̶ ̶P̶r̶i̶m̶e̶ Sideways,
Is Beta, Solus Prime?{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

A: Dear Decaying Dimwit,
Is who, who? Ah, what the frag. Sure, Beaker is Solsbury Prime if that powers up your engines.{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

On June 27, 2015, Axiom Nexus News journalist Andromeda reported that Vector Prime had been kidnapped by Sideways. Andromeda - Axiom Nexus News Reporter Shortly following this announcement, the Ask Vector Prime Facebook and Twitter feeds were taken over by Sideways. His tone was decidedly unhelpful, and he promised to "lie like a girder", as he gleefully made his way through Vector Prime's outstanding questions and answered questions directed at him. A lot of questions about obscure Transformers trivia got the answer of "sure, why not?", and invariably answers about who did any kind of atrocity were some variation of "me!"

After a few days, Sideways started to employ heavy sexual innuendo, which was initially well-regarded by the fan community. <ref>http://www.allspark.com/forums/topic/116666-3-new-botcon-facebook-character-pages-rook-andromeda-and-axiom-nexus-news-editor/?p=2956638</ref> Unfortunately, it led to an answer about Airazor that, although unintentional in wording and overtones, the creators agreed was badly phrased, and thankfully edited out within an hour, immediately followed by an apology from the creators.<ref>http://www.allspark.com/forums/topic/116666-3-new-botcon-facebook-character-pages-rook-andromeda-and-axiom-nexus-news-editor/page-72#entry2963353</ref> Further questions that would have had such elements were toned down or cut out completely. (But the wiki remembers, Sideways).

When people replied to his answers, they could sometimes end up in a comment discussion with Sideways. <ref>http://www.allspark.com/forums/topic/116666-3-new-botcon-facebook-character-pages-rook-andromeda-and-axiom-nexus-news-editor/?p=2962394</ref>

On July 8, Ask Sideways ended with the conceit that the TransTech had found him by tracking our questions to him, as detailed on Rook's Facebook page. A question from one such audience member blew his head up! (But Sideways Headmaster-linked with Rook and escaped Nexus 208.0 Epsilon.)

Grim Grams

Q: Dear V̶e̶c̶t̶o̶r̶ ̶P̶r̶i̶m̶e̶ Grim Grams,

Given the ruthlessness of Cemetery Wind, many of us are worried for the well being of Sam, Agent Simmons, Colonel Lennox and other Autobot allies from the Tyran cluster that did not appear on "Age of Extinction". Could you tell us what happened to them after the Battle of Chicago?{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

A: Sanitary Wind? What Sanitary Wind? Me Grimlock never heard of it. Me think you no have to worry, Decepticons may be jerks but Autobots always stop them before puny humans get hurt. Me sure Sam and Agent Simon and Kermit Lemon all just fine.{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

On September 30, Vector Prime secretly departed Axiom Nexus on the behest of his brother Nexus Prime, much to the chagrin of the overworked Rook. After putting out a request on Cragun's List, Grimlock eagerly took the job, and celebrated by renaming the column Grim Grams. The Dinobot... did his best to work through the backlog of questions intended for Vector Prime while answering new questions about himself and his adventures. Ratings swiftly plummeted, prompting Rook—who was more concerned with the potential destruction of the multiverse—to fire the Dinobot and replace him with "someone clever"...

Swindle's Spiel

Q: Dear V̶e̶c̶t̶o̶r̶ ̶P̶r̶i̶m̶e̶ Swindle's Spiel,
Why does the head of the Wrecker combiner Ruination look like Emirate Xaaron?{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

A: Why does anyone look like anyone? Nine times outta ten, it's the colors. And what does wonders for colors? Electronic Paint, that's what! We've got double coats, triple coats, quadruple coats, even our Quintesson-special quintuple coat. Tired of your boring yellow color scheme? Switch back and forth to Cliffjumper red, Wasp green, G2 gold, and Polar Assault white at will. I mean, I'm not allowed to mention his name without paying him royalties, but after my rather famous client had his last treatment he felt like a gold bug! So drop on down to Swindle, Swindle & Swindle and get your fresh coat of Electronic Paint today!{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

On October 3rd, Swindle - to be more precise, one of the three Swindles running Swindle, Swindle & Swindle - took the job, renaming the column "Swindle's Spiel". Although decidedly more coherent than his immediate predecessor, Swindle tended to turn potential answers into platforms to shill his various products. Swindle was fired on October 6th for subverting the terms of his contract. At the behest of his editor, Rook put out a call for someone "straightforward" and "earnest", which couldn't possibly bite him in the afterburner, could it?

Sentinel Shouting

NO! NO! WE ARE NOT DOING THE BLOODY *GOOD LIFE*! I BLOODY HATE *THE GOOD LIFE*! BLOODY, BLOODY, **BLOODY!**

Q: Dear Sentinel Shouting,
Do you know if Fortress Maximus, The Metroplex, or Trypticon Prison are sentient and/or can transform?{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

A: Sentient? Why would we make our buildings sentient? Like that makes any sense. "Oh, I'm Alpha Trion, I'm older than metal and I run the Guilds Domesticus and I think that we should cut military spending because I'm a fossil. Hey, walls, what do you think?" "SPOT ON, ALPHA TRION." "Thanks, walls!"
Pffff... sentient buildings.{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

On October 7, Sentinel Minor took over the column, this time renaming it "Sentinel Shouting". Unsurprisingly, Sentinel was rather confrontational and aggressive with his readers.

(Rook is a pretty bad judge of character.)

During his brief tenure, Sentinel talked about how he would handle things if he ever became Magnus: heavy 'law and order' policies, cutting all money from civil society and moving it all to warships, and squeezing the Decepticon lemon until the pips squeaked.

By October 9, Sentinel realized that he was corresponding with a bunch of organics. He didn't take the news well and abdicated the position. After Sentinel left, the editor tasked Andromeda with finding yet another replacement, as he had sent Rook to the Primax 1015.06 Kappa discovery party to help ease him of his stress. Due to Sentinel's abrasiveness turning away younger viewers, the editor pushed her to find someone popular with the younger crowd, to which Andromeda immediately knew of a bot for the job...

Bee's Backtalk

Kid-appeal is good for attracting viewers.

Q: Dear Bee's Backtalk,
Do you feel any kind of rivalry with Cheetor as the yellow, kid appeal bot?{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

[Audio]: kzzz-Say whaaaa? -kzzz- I love kids, and kids love me -kzzz- You're gonna need all nine lives after this beat-down, pussycat! *meow*-kzzz{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

Later on October 9, Bumblebee became the fourth successor to Vector Prime for the column, renaming the column to "Bee's Backtalk". As expected, Bumblebee answered questions with audio clips put together, given his inability to speak.

On October 13, as Bumblebee was about to answer why things in the Tyran Cluster are prone to exploding, he suddenly found himself in the middle of a battleground as everything around him exploded, the Axiom Nexus News team losing contact with him (disappointing the editor, who was pleased that Bumblebee was able to stabilize ratings). As Andromeda was the one who found Bumblebee, she was tasked with finding his replacement, someone who, in contrast to Bumblebee's cryptic radio answers, could speak their mind in a straightforward manner.

Renegade Rhetoric

This modified screencap from *Challenge of the Go-Bots* lasted as long as it took for someone to realize Time Warner still held the rights. It was subsequently replaced.

Q: Dear Renegade Rhetoric,
Could you please tell me more about the inhabitants of Quartex, especially the Rock Lords and the Narlis? I want to learn about who they are, and about your encounters with them.{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

A: No.{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

And she thought it'd be a good idea to hire Cy-Kill. Okay, Beavis.

Cy-Kill hoped to use the page to convince us of the rightness of the Renegade cause and how cool they were. Thanks to leading questions from fans, the wiki got a whole lot of GoBots pages while it was running! Attempts at getting universe names went less well. Renegade Rhetoric also got to lampoon parts of Transformers, with Cy-Kill taking a dim view of certain tropes ("it's not as if I call my faction "Untrustworthy-cons" or some such rubbish").

He used the column to recruit agents and casually admit he had just bombed a government building ("a gentlemen never bombs and tells"). Eventually, Cheetor cracked down on his operation. With the help of his new combiner Monsterous, however, Cy-Kill and his new Renegade team evaded capture and chrono-jumped to parts and times unknown. Of course, Cy-Kill had got ratings during his tenure, so ANN decided they wanted another charismatic baddie.

Shark Sonnets

Q: Dear Shark Sonnets,
What was your life like before the Cybertronian civil war?{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

A: Unfulfilled yearning

Water trapped behind a dam

Enter Megatron!{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

Sky-Byte will answer
All the questions put to him.
And the fans rejoice.

Confidence was low
Answers now took form of haiku
To calm his waffle

Told he was boring
So he took a better calling
Left with one last bow.

Spacewarp's Log

Being female probably isn't the most "different" thing about her...

Q: Hey, Spacewarp.
Mind telling me how you smoke a cy-gar with that mouthplate?{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

A: A: Whoosers. Didn't your batch proto-initiator ever explain to you about basic cyber-anatomy?

I assure you. The plate. Comes. Off.

(If this turns into a discussion about the binary-birds and cyber bees, I quit.){{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

With Sky-Byte's departure for a more fulfilling job at The Blue Deployer, Andromeda was once again tasked with finding a new host; this time, someone charismatic, who tells stories (but not a terrorist), with something different about them.

Her selection: Spacewarp, taking on the job until she could "punch, gamble, sneak, research, or flirt [her] way off-world".

After High Chancellor Optimus Prime started increasing the number of off-planet visas following Axiom Nexus losing contact with the rest of the multiverse, Spacewarp took the chance, quickly obtaining one (through legal means even!), setting off for more adventures.

The return

Vector Prime returned from his adventures on November 1, Quadwal time. After the reorganization of the multiverse, this new Vector Prime was but a splinter of his former self; this particular iteration of Vector Prime had always existed as a more or less normal Cybertronian within Nexus 208.0 Epsilon, although he was vaguely aware that he had once been a part of something greater.

With the TransTechs' multiversal reach lost, Vector Prime was assigned to travel to the planet Nebulos, where the dimensional walls were thin and he could covertly "listen in" on Primax 984.0 Gamma, with a Nebulan covert agent codenamed Safeguard...and a bodyguard named Scorpia. Vector Prime decided that the time had come to close his column, although he decided to tie up any loose ends before he left. Notably, this Vector Prime was substantially less interested in his reader's questions about who came from what specific reality, and at least once openly wondered about their desire to categorize unimportant trivia.

Would knowing the precise, specific plane of their origination give you more insight into them than their own words?{{#if:|{{{quote2}}}}}{{#if:|{{{2}}}{{#if:|, {{{3}}}|}}|}}

He later promoted Axiom Nexus's new column, Transformers: Spacewarp's Log, and was hacked by Cy-Kill to promote his pirate column, Renegade Rhetoric. After several waystops, he eventually made it to Nebulos on February 15 2016. Along the way he formally became Scorpia's Conjunx Endura.

The Facebook version of Ask Vector Prime is written by Jim Sorenson and edited by Jesse Wittenrich. Perhaps unsurprisingly for a column that's run for the better part of eight months (as of the end of December 2015), there are many additional contributors. <ref>https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10153272529184902&set=a.53930589901.64442.584094901&type=1&theater</ref> They include:

Notes

As of July 16, 2015, Ask Vector Prime had a total readership of 7,263 people.<ref>https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10153272529184902&set=a.53930589901.64442.584094901&type=1&theater</ref>

Notably, Ask Vector Prime:
- Provided English translations for the names of the entire cast of Transformers Online
- Invented names for pretty much every frigging Mini-Con team in existence
- Established some version(s) of the Thirteen as having visited Earth during the time of ancient Greece and inspiring/co-opting the legends of the [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Twelve Olympians|{{#if:||Twelve Olympians}}]], along with providing holomatter avatars for each of them
- Established the first female Optimus Prime, as well as declared a large number of gender-undefined characters as female
- Published G.I. Joe-style biocards for every toy-original Dark of the Moon human from Human Alliance
- Revealed the universe of origin of every character known to have participated in the Universe War
- Name-dropped every significant character and toy from GoBots and expanded on the [[wikipedia:{{#if:|:}}Challenge of the Gobots|{{#if:||Challenge of the Gobots}}]] cartoon considerably
