Yeah, same. The symbols don't fit.

Aha! Good good.
And about the Fallen?

I don't have the book yet, but based on the pics of the Primes in this book that we saw glimpses at before, I'm gonna guess that the book will have the pre- and post-Fallen pics of Megatronus that were shown at BotCon 2010 and 2011.Va'al wrote:Mkall wrote:It's not "The Thirteenth Prime."

Could anyone give a summary of the Primes?
Not the 13, but the ones right before Optimus.
So before Optimus we had Sentinel Zeta and before him who was it, and so on.
Thanks guys!
Also if anyone would do some summarizing for tfwiki and the rest of the net I'd be grateful. Not all of us can afford this thing

From what we could tell from Exodus, it seemed like Zeta was the only Prime from since after the Thirteen's time to Optimus's term.Ω Sentinel ζ Prime wrote:A question for anyone who has it now.

Don't worry. The Wiki guys are already eager and ready to get their hands on this thing and put it all on the Wiki.Ω Sentinel ζ Prime wrote:Also if anyone would do some summarizing for tfwiki and the rest of the net I'd be grateful. Not all of us can afford this thing!

I'm sure it translates to what Alpha Trion wrote in english, on that "Afterwards" page on Amazon.

So in the whole history of Cybertron the Covenant only lists the 13 before skipping right to Optimus?
That's like having the Bible skip from Judah to Joseph.
I figured in Exodus it was just a Squint Glitch but you're telling me that's the real deal?
No Nova Prime? No Guardian Prime, not even a Nominous Prime?

I told you what Exodus said. Not what the Covenant said. The book is still shipping to most people. It only just came out today. Give it some time to arrive into more people's hands first.Ω Sentinel ζ Prime wrote:Wait what? That's kinda crazy.

I think there are... two people in this thread who have it, yes?
I wouldnt bother asking if I thought they were busy actually reading it, but the "Who is Online" ticker says he's online so i figured he'd be cool for it.
Sorry if I annoyed you.

That's real cool of you to go online and dump before enjoying it yourselves.
So any cool "revelations?' Or just stuff we already knew?

This is just for the Aligned continuity: War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron videogames, Exodus, Exiles and Retribution novels, Prime TV series, Fall of Cybertron, Rage of the Dinobots and Beast Hunters comics. So no, no Beast Wars this time!
