Hasbro Q&A/January 2011: Question submission
MediaWiki participates in Hasbro's ongoing Question & Answer sessions. In celebration of the premiere of Transformers: Prime's first season, our site will be allowed to submit one question to the teams at The Hub and Hasbro Studios behind the show!
If you're a registered user at our site, please add your question below!
Some ground rules:
- The question has to relate to the Transformers: Prime TV show. Don't ask about the toyline.
- Don't be a jerk.
Each registered user can ask one question at this time. Please bullet and sign your question. The deadline for your questions is the evening of Thursday, January 20th, and answers will be sent back on (approximately) February 7th. If you're a registered member and for some reason you can't edit this page, ask your question on the discussion page, then I or Walky will move it here.

January 2011 questions
- In both the Exodus novel and the War for Cybertron video game, both which Hasbro says are in-continuity with the Prime television show, a surplus of Dark Energon is what made Cybertron ultimately uninhabitable. But in the Prime television show, this doesn't seem to be the case, or Megatron wouldn't have had to fire a bunch of Dark Energon at Cybertron -- it should have had plenty already! Here is my question: What? --ItsWalky 16:43, 18 January 2011 (EST)
- Sorta the same as above but maybe a bit more generally phrased: Hasbro has insisted that the War for Cybertron, the Exodus novel, and your cartoon are in the same "universe." Yet while similar in a general sense all three contradict each other frequently on minor and some very major story points. What are your feelings on these contradictions and your shows connection to the other two? Do you consider all three the same exact universe or are they more akin to alternate versions of the same story? --ZacWilliam 17:53, 18 January 2011 (EST)
- The high-quality animation you've created for the show must require a lot of work. How much of an animation budget do you have to work with and how much of a limit do you think it will place on introducing new characters? --abates 18:14, 18 January 2011 (EST)
- Are the Decepticon troops in Transformers Prime regular Transformers or are they drones of some kind? - Starfield
- when are Knockout and Breakdown featuring in the show? -Tristan 38935
- Both Dirge and Onslaught were defeated in the Autobot version of Transformers: War for Cybertron (DS) and Onslaught's fate remain ambiguous in the Exodus novel. So, for all intents and purposes, are they really dead or is there any chance that they may show up later in the cartoon?- ACIDSTORM92 22:10, 18 January 2011 (EST)
