I've been scheduled to participate Comic-Con's Transformers Prime Press Q&A. As far as I know, I might meet...

Roberto Orci - Executive Producer
Mike Vogel - Head of Development at Hasbro Studios
Brian Lenard - Development Executive
Jeff Kline - Writer, showrunner
Jose Lopez - Character Designer
Dave Hartman - Supervising Director
Duane Capizzi - Supervising produer/writer/director
Therese Trujillo - Animation Supervisor
Vinton Heuck - Animation producer/storyboard artist

This where I need the help of fellow Seibertronians. What would you like the Transformers Prime creative team to answer? Post your questions below!

I need questions to be submitted by tomorrow afternoon, 3pm Pacific Time.

1. Are the Autobots ever going to get a new staying character?
2. Is the series going to develop a real plot sometime soon, or continue to be random battles?
3. Will Soundwave ever speak?
4. Will Bumblebee
5. Is Cliffjumper's zombie really dead?
6. Is Makeshift dead, or will we learn more about this mystery character?

Bump for the morning crowd.

Does or did Makeshift ever have a fully lit character model, or was the one that was cast in full shadow the only model produced?

In order to maintain a better continuity with the War for Cybertron games and Exodus and Exiles novels, is it possible that there may be any flashbacks that take place during the time of the games/books' events? And if so, could the character models from the games be used in those flashbacks to better help the stories of the differing mediums flow together?

Is it possible that we may learn more of why Jack's father left him and June?

At the end of the War for Cybertron game and the Exodus novel, Cybertron had been rendered fully infected with Dark Energon. Had it finally been healed before, or at least by the time of, the first episode of Prime?

Is the Prime graphic novel (that shows how Arcee, Cliffjumper, and Starscream all got to Earth and scanned their Earth Modes prior to episode 1) regarded as canon by the show's creators?

The Prime graphic novel showed Breakdown to have already been on Earth since before episode 1. Since he did not appear again until episode 10, where had he been during all that time and doing what, exactly?

Do the flying Vehicons have any different identifier to distinguish them from the normal ground based Vehicons? Like, could the flying Vehicons be referred to as a "Seeker" variant?

In the Prime graphic novel, we saw not only purple-colored Vehicons on Cybertron, but also ones colored blue, green, and red as well. Is it possible that we may see Vehicons in a wider variety of color schemes later on, or will we only continue to see the purple ones?

If Airachnid were to push her far enough, would Arcee be willing to kill her?

Why have Arcee and Bulkhead thus far gotten the most time in the spotlight more than any other Autobot?

Why has Ratchet yet to transform on screen in any episode? Or rather, why has he yet to transform into his altmode to give us a good look at it? We've only seen his altmode briefly in the title sequence and partially in the first episode, but each time has had it obscured in some way to prevent it from being fully seen in a clear view.

Is the "Darkness Rising" 5-parter considered part of the 26-episode first season, or is it considered as its own standalone precursor to it?

Many have compared Airachnid to Blackarachnia. What went on in the decision to not use that name and go with the name "Airachnid" instead?

Susan Blu was originally stated to be the casting director for the show, but was then said to have been replaced by Jamie Simone due to a death in her family. Did Susan Blu have any involvement in this show before she was replaced, or was Jamie Simone the casting director from the beginning?

Is there any chance of us ever seeing how the Autobots and Decepticons first arrived on Earth?

Exactly how many years have the Autobots been on Earth?

Do we will learn about the cybertronians artifacts and cybertronians on earth history?
How you guy decide which characters get on rhe show a how to use him?
