Ask Vector Prime/Mentioned characters

The column and feature Ask Vector Prime ~~featured every single character in Transformers history.~~ featured many, many characters. So many that ~~it'd be easier to list the characters NOT mentioned in it~~ they needed to be listed on a separate page to conserve accessibility on this website. Below are all the characters mentioned in Ask Vector Prime, and the similar "guest columns" that evolved out of it, separated by iterations of the feature.
