When I watch transformers and hoe deep and humanoid their personalities are I can't help but wonder.

Anyways just a couple

Starscream 27

Megatron 32

Optimus Prime 32

Rumble 18

Soundwave 30


Hotrod 20/Rodimus Prime 30


I guess you guys get the drift

I'd put Megatron closer to 40, myself, but I'd agee with everything else there.

Yeah, I was originally thinking of putting Megatron and Optimus at around 35 and up, so maybe I was a little low there.

Optimus is old and wise, but in almost every incarnation, Megatron is older. So, i could see him being 40 in the main G1 series. I mean, he's becoming less reliant on himself and more reliant on his troops...

Rumble I'd say 15 or 16. Sideswipe and Sunstreaker might b 18-21.

Ravage is 7.

Prime would probably be 37

If I had to guess, I'd say that Kup would be in his late 50s. Maybe.

I'd think that Megatron is is about 5o to 60. Prime about 35, hot Rod 20, Bumblebee about 19.
Ironhide about 55 or so.

Megatron is a cranky old man pushing 60. Mind you, he's like that Banana Joe guy who's eighty and waterskis, so he's no slouch. But cranky. And Old. Ooooooold.

Hmm, excellent question.

I see Kup sharing the mentality of "Ol' Country Doc McCoy" and pushin' up there in age. I'd say 60-65

Ironhide, Megatron and Optimus seem to be about the same age, so I'd say they're 50-55ish.

Seekers (SS, TC, SW) about 30-32 (old enough to know better, young enough to screw over.)

Hot Rod about 18-20, and smart, but lacks logic.

We find out how old Magnus, Rodimus, Springer and Arcee are in human years in the ep Only Human.

Magnus bout 50 (note the grey hair.)
Rodimus bout 25.
Springer and Arcee bout 35.

Based off visual appearances of course.

The only characters where age really seems relevant is the "really young" characters like Hot Rod and Bumblebee, or the "really old" guys like Kup and Alpha Trion. Others are kind of hard to place, Megatron could be anywhere from 30-50.

Even 32 is too young for Optimus Prime, so maybe somewhere between 37 and 50?

Megatron...39-50.

Starscream...25-32.

Bumblebee...around 17!

Ironhide...maybe 45?

Jazz...27-30.

Kup...55-60.

Arcee...25-30.

Grimlock...30-35. (Hard to tell from the mask that covers the whole head!)
