Because Rescue Bots is awesome and they're too good for Prime. :twisted:

On a more serious note, the Prime writers likely have the season 3 story all set and planned out for all 13-16 episodes, and likely have little free space room for celebrity guest stars.

And we know that, based on past experiences, whenever there is one, the fans will want to see them again and again, when season 3 is supposed to act like a final season, so there can't be that many loose ends left if they want it to feel like the end of the story (even though there's said to be a fourth season coming, they gotta still treat season 3 like the very end).

Rescue Bots, however, is still growing and expanding upon its world, will ample free room for more celebrities and such. ;)

Hadn't seen a pic of Mark Hamill in a while. Anyone else disturbed that Luke's starting to look just a teensy bit like the Emperor? I mean, more than just the relentless march of time. Just sayin'.

Well, here's hoping his character is the Rescue Bots equivalent of the Joker; maybe an alt that's a "clown car" in that it's a sub-compact that expands to a robot the size of Devastator!

Unless he's voicing Hoist or Medix, I highly doubt he's playing a robot character.

It's about time Hammil contributed to the Transformers franchise.
