Ok, word's out that Hasbro like War for Cybertron so much that they've declared it cannon. So now that means Zeta part of the lore now, and I managed to get a glimspe of him and he kinda looks like the Prime before Optimus from Optimus's spotlight because he's holding a staff... So now can we assume that WAS him and NOT Sentinel - since he looked so different in Megatron's origins book?

These look more similar than Sentinel Prime did in Megatron's origin book

I doubt he is a cannon. Much more a truck.

BTW: Sentinel Prime from earlier continuities (minus Animated) = Zeta Prime
As I see, Hasbro went with the name change to dodge getting stupid questions whether Sentinel from Animated has the same personality as Zeta.

trence5, I believe you are wanting Canon, not Cannon.

It's possible that Zeta Prime was the other two characters in the shadows behind Nova/Nemesis Prime, and it's also possible that Zeta Prime is not part of the IDW Transformers Universe.

Just a thought.

Zeta Prime is mentioned in Spotlight: Blurr. I'm guessing if the succession of Autobot leaders holds up in IDW's continuity it goes like this:

Prima (hasn't been mentioned, but I'm assuming is there)
Nova Prime
Sentinel Prime
Zeta Prime
Optimus Prime
