When Shockwave hints of his project of cloning Predacons, he shows the Decepticons a monitor viewing CNA (Cybernucleic Acid), which may or may not belong to Predaking or the Predacons. So most likely the fossilized remains of the original Predacons were mechanical.

Presumably all Cybertronians possess CNA, according to Shockwave. It's possible that a "beast mode" is no different from any other alternate form among Cybertronians in the Aligned continuity; it is also possible the Predacons were all descended from the first Prime with a beast mode, and as Starscream refers to it as a prehistoric creature, it's likely they'd all/mostly died out before recorded Cybertronian history.

This is quite distinctly not like Beast Wars/Beast Machines, where the organic components were necessary to shield against Energon radiation, and (in some versions of the continuity) allowed the Maximals and Predacons to ingest local flora and fauna to provide alternative energy supplies in addition to Energon.

The official Transformers facebook page has posted another teaser image from tomorrow's episode of Transformers Prime Beast Hunters, "Prey". Be sure to tune into the Hub at 7:30 PM ET. Check out the promo still below.

A new episode of Transformers Prime: Beast Hunters tomorrow on The Hub TV Network features the first mission for Predaking! Check out this exclusive pic from the episode.

New promo for next week's up. It appears Optimus actually kicks the can on life, and Smokescreen is having a terrible time coping with becoming the next Prime.

If that happens, that is.

Optimus's blackening eyes could instead signify him powering down into stasis lock.

We all know know that Optimus is coming back... what continuity has ever killed him off indefinitely (Beast Machines out of the question)?

DAMMIT! SHOW ME WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!

Okay.

I too enjoyed Mr. Ironside's portrayal of Magnus. I felt it was reminiscent of Mr. Stack from the '86 film. I also liked how he spoke of the children; "polite condescension" so to speak. I hope he kicks ass in the next episode.

As for Predaking's voice; does anyone else get the feeling that it will be Greg Berger?

IMHO, this was the best episode of the series.

I hope the quality continues to the end.

It's Peter Mensah.

I love Peter Mensah. The guy's a bit of a beast himself. But has Predaking actually said anything coherent yet?

He has not. Mensah was confirmed as the voice of Predaking by reports from the red carpet world premiere screening event at the Globe Theater in Universal Studios Hollywood, California. Mensah was present with the other voice cast members to answer questions and give comments about the show and the event.
