Alternate Name: Optimus Magnus Affiliation: Autobots Alternate Mode: Fire Truck Weapons: Energon axe As a washout from the Elite Guard, Optimus Prime, currently known as Optimus Magnus, was reassigned to space bridge repair duty under the supervision of Ratchet. He is a relatively naive and idealistic young leader, prone to long-winded "inspirational" speeches who leads a small and inexperienced Autobot space bridge maintenance team. Recently, his crew has landed on Earth, adopted jobs as semi-official superheroes and currently live in an abandoned Sumdac Systems warehouse. Despite his humble "Bot Next Door" persona, he performs his job with a dedicated seriousness. He transforms into a red truck cab that can be fitted with many kinds of "trailer" attachments (most notably one that makes him look like a fire engine) and wields a kicky rocket-propelled extendable battle axe, as well as multiple arm mounted modifications, including grappler cables, fire extinguishers and bola-whip throwers. Sentinel Prime sneers at Optimus's lowly repair job, and Supreme Commander Ultra Magnus once held the young officer in low regard. More than anything, Prime wanted to be a hero. He's had the speeches, he had the moves...but what was he missing? Maybe The Touch? But since coming to Earth, Optimus has learned the truth about heroism. It's not about glory and destiny, it's about doing the right thing and going to your limit and beyond. Ratchet, for all his cynicism, knows that Prime is a hero, and after seeing him in action, Ultra Magnus himself admitted that Optimus has excellent leadership skills. Personality: Optimus Prime is the commander of a ragtag and largely inexperienced group of Autobots. The 2nd oldest of the group (after Ratchet, of coarse). He’s a born leader, a natural tactician, a dedicated never-say-die fighter and a master of improvisation in the face of adversity. Unassuming, humble, friendly and cheerful, Prime comes across as “The Bot Next Door.” He takes his mission and his men with the utmost seriousness, but is still able to relate to them as a regular guy. He’s not the kind of leader who needs to bark orders to command respect. He is usually the first to join the fight and the last to leave it putting himself before any member of his team. When Optimus Prime crashed to Earth with the rest of the Autobots, he didn't really know what it meant to be a hero. He spent most of his time in space dreaming of glory, but it wasn't until he was first faced with the terrible decisions that inevitably come with leadership that he finally understood. He became a true hero - a being who does what he does not for glory and fame, but because no-one else can do it. Abilities: As a special kind of Prime of the Elite Guard, equipped with blasters and blades, and wields a strong, rocket-propelled, extendable battle axe, as well as multiple arm mounted modifications, including grappler cables, fire extinguishers and bola-whip throwers. Optimus Prime possesses a wide variety of skills and abilities. His main one is his arm mounted grappling hook launchers, which Optimus can use to swing through the air, or to reach things a distance away from him. The launchers can also shoot out bolas to tie up the legs of his opponents, fire retardant foam, and low friction gel. Optimus wields a rocket powered axe. The axe can transform from a small hatchet into a full-sized battle axe, and the handle can extend even further to allow Optimus to pole vault when needed. The rocket engine assists with swings to lend more power to attacks. Optimus also exhibited an ability to tap into phone and radio signals in Return of the Headmaster, using an antenna built into his "earpiece". In the same episode, he also demonstrated an ability to track signals back to their origin. Optimus also possesses a retractable mouth plate/battle mask like several of the other Autobots for battle mode purposes. In “Endgame” Optimus Prime receives the ultimate upgrade – a rocket pack! These jet engines allow Optimus to fly at high speeds to compete with Decepticons on their own ground, although as he is not a natural flyer Optimus is not as experienced in aerial combat as the Decepticons are. On top of all this, Optimus Prime has extensive Autobot Academy training. In addition to his agility and Elite Guard-class skills, he has the tactical knowledge that comes with the role, such as tricking Headmaster into transforming and crushing his Headmaster unit in Transwarped. To top it all off, in the final battle Optimus Prime wields the Magnus Hammer, which can call down blasts of thunder and generate storms. There's just no stopping him! Attributes: Supplementary battle armor. Rocket-assisted axe. Grapnel launcher in arm. Can cut reinforced steel. Advanced fire-fighting systems. Trained at the Autobot Academy. On a mission, Optimus and Elita-1 accompanied Sentinel to a forbidden organic planet in search of a lost Decepticon ship rumored to be rich in Energon. After finding the planet to be infested with giant spiders, the trio finally decided to leave, but their retreat was not easy. Though Optimus and Elita found the Decepticon ship and its coveted energon cubes, they were forced to escape when spiders surrounded them. However, Elita was left behind, presumed destroyed in an energon explosion. Sentinel was furious and blamed Optimus for her death. Facing court martial by Ultra Magnus regarding the events of what happened to Elita-1 and breaking the strict rule against going near or landing on planets occupied by organics, Sentinel accused Optimus of not going back for her. Despite Sentinel's false accusations, Optimus took the blame of the whole incident saying that he was the "Senior cadet" so it was "his responsibility for all losses". Leaving Ultra Magnus no choice, Optimus was discharged from the Academy and forbidden from joining the Elite Guard. However, Ultra Magnus still thought that Optimus was special and gave him the rank of Prime, along with giving him leadership of an old ship and a small space bridge repair crew. Thousands of stellar cycles later, Prime and his crew came across the AllSpark while repairing a Space Bridge and brought the artifact aboard their ship. During transport, they were discovered by the Decepticons, and Megatron came after them. He proved too strong to take head on (in spite of his subordinate planting a bomb on his chassis), but when Teletran-1 neared Earth, Prime knocked Megatron overboard. The Autobots stayed in stasis for the next 50 years until they were accidentally awakened by an apparent intruder. Optimus and the Autobots took on Earth vehicles as alternate modes in an attempt to assimilate with what they believed to be the local dominant culture. Prime and his team were able to dispatch a bio-mechanical insectoid that was attacking Detroit. They were hailed as heroes for it. Over the next several weeks, the Autobots got to learn human culture and customs, doing their best to prevent disasters and save lives. Eventually, Starscream came for the AllSpark, and Optimus found that the schemer could pack quite a punch. The Autobot officer was still able to keep Starscream from getting the artifact, though at the cost of his life. However, he was quickly revived by Sari Sumdac and her AllSpark-influenced key. Later, the Autobots helped rebuild parts of Detroit that were destroyed in their battle with Starscream. Unfortunately for Optimus, he had gained a reputation outside of Earth's atmosphere—not as a hero, but as the slayer of Megatron. The Decepticon Blitzwing placed a large bounty on his head, and pretty soon, Lockdown came to collect. He captured Prime and stole his axe and grapplers. Fortunately, Ratchet saved him, finally getting the old bot to open up more. During the Autobots' first Halloween on Earth, the Decepticon Blackarachnia ambushed Bumblebee and Bulkhead and kidnapped Sari. When Optimus Prime tried to fight Blackarachnia, she dodged all his moves, as she had trained with him. Prime was shocked to learn that Blackarachnia was his old Autobot Academy classmate Elita-1, who hadn't died but been mutated while fighting off the giant arachnids those many years ago. Blackarachnia tried to use Sari's AllSpark key to remove the organic aspects from her biology, but the key began to drain the life from everything organic around and nearly killed Blackarachnia herself. Prime removed the key, saving Blackarachnia and the organics. Still calling her Elita, Prime tried to convince her to return to the Autobots so they could try and help her. She repaid that kindness by injecting him with venom and telling him that she would never trust him again. Prime was left to reflect on the friend he'd failed not once, but twice. When Decepticon energy signals were detected near the city, the Autobots quickly realized that their options were limited. Bulkhead mentioned that the Dinobots might help, forcing Prowl to reveal how the two moved them to Dinobot Island. Prime's reaction was...displeased, to say the least. Ranting that all he had to command were insubordinate malfunctions, Prime also concluded that the Key was no longer safe with Sari, and he ordered Ratchet to take it from her. As Sari ran off crying, Bumblebee mouthed off that their situation was an indication that Prime was unfit for command. Heading to Dinobot Island, Prime did not get off to a good start with Grimlock, mostly because Grimlock considered him lunch. After Prowl smoothed things over, Prime tried to convince them to help the Autobots fight the Decepticons, but Grimlock was uninterested. Receiving word from Ratchet that the Key had been stolen, Prime ordered Ratchet to guard the AllSpark while the Autobots headed back for the mainland. Prime himself also began to wonder if he was fit for command, seeing as all his decisions had blown up in his face. When Bumblebee contacted the Autobots to inform them that Starscream was at Sumdac Tower, he refused Prime's order to hold back and went to attack the Decepticon on his own. Prime dryly noted that the day just kept getting better and better. Then everything pretty much went to hell when Megatron burst out of Sumdac Tower, to the shock and horror of just about everyone. Quickly regaining their composure, the Autobots attacked. Megatron beat the slag out of them. Though Optimus fared slightly better, Megatron still brought him down fairly quickly. They were only able to escape when Megatron punished Starscream for his betrayal. Taking refuge within Sumdac Tower, Professor Sumdac explained his role in Megatron's revival and helped repair the Autobots with residual key energy. After Bumblebee called Prime to answer for his earlier assessment of them, Prime admitted he was wrong and asked them for forgiveness. When Ratchet and Sari showed up with Teletran-1, the Autobots took flight, hoping to lure the Decepticons away from Earth to prevent human casualties. Unfortunately, the Decepticons shot down the vessel and caused it to crash on Dinobot Island. As the Autobots took on the Decepticons, Optimus faced down Megatron, which went as well as the first time. When Megatron got into the Autobots' ship, he took the AllSpark and placed the powerful artifact within him, using it as a weapon against Prime. However, Megatron had dropped the key, and Sari threw it to Prime. The Autobot officer used the key to send a surge of energy through the AllSpark, causing it to disperse while still in Megatron. With the threat passed, Prime apologized to Sari and returned the key, saying it was too important to be trusted with an Autobot. After the battle with the Decepticons, the Cybertron Elite Guard arrived to take the AllSpark back to Cybertron. Optimus explained that the AllSpark had been dispersed and that the Decepticons had been defeated. Sentinel Prime accused Optimus of lying and took every chance he could to belittle his former friend, but Ultra Magnus decided to investigate their claims. Optimus took them to Dinobot Island, but the Autobots did not make a good impression on the Dinobots. Before they could investigate, they received a message from Ratchet, saying that police drones had gone haywire at a Sumdac Systems manufacturing plant. Optimus managed to get Sari inside and shut off the assembly line, but the key was stuck in the console. Before Optimus could help, Sentinel pushed him aside and promised to see Optimus charged for high treason. Tired of Sentinel's slag, Optimus finally stuck up for himself and told Sentinel where to shove it, destroying the console the key was stuck in and revealing an AllSpark fragment. Ultra Magnus accepted the shard as proof of Optimus Prime's claims. Though Sentinel still refused to believe him, Magnus said that Optimus Prime displayed many qualities that Sentinel himself could use. When Sentinel and Optimus were at a press conference with Mayor Edsel, they received a call about a Decepticon sighting in old Detroit. After Sentinel mangled the roads en route, he told Optimus to split up and search on his own. Hours later, Optimus received a communication to from Sentinel to dismiss the police and come to Sentinel's location alone—and not to laugh when he got there. What Optimus found was Sentinel Prime's severed head, with his body having been stolen by the Headmaster. He promised to help Sentinel find his body without letting Ultra Magnus or the other Autobots know, but not before taking a moment or two to enjoy the situation. Heading for Sumdac Tower, Optimus confronted Porter C. Powell, who denied knowing where Masterson was and told him the Autobots were no longer welcome at the facility. Optimus left, but immediately tapped in on Powell and Masterson's phone conversation, letting Optimus track Masterson to the docks. After encountering mini-Headmasters in the form of Tutor Bot and Sparkplug, Optimus was able to get aboard the ship before it sailed away. Finding the Headmaster with Sentinel Prime's body, Optimus Prime proceeded to beat the living slag out of his attacker, much to Sentinel's discomfort. Finally defeating the mad scientist, Optimus reattached Sentinel's head to his body, but Masterson walked away due to legal technicalities. When Ultra Magnus asked them about it the next day, Optimus covered for Sentinel, saying that Sentinel had volunteered to use himself as bait to capture Masterson, and Magnus praised their bravery. In an awkward moment, Sentinel thanked Optimus for all he'd done, and the two shook hands amicably. When word of Decepticon attacks came after learning that Megatron was still alive, Ultra Magnus decided that Optimus and his Autobots would be needed elsewhere repairing damaged space bridges. The Elite Guard also wanted Optimus to...leave out that whole destruction of the AllSpark and Megatron's survival thing for the time being. When they detected an AllSpark shard energy signature in a human train, the Elite Guard went to retrieve it. Detecting Starscream, Optimus realized it was a trap and was forced to place stasis cuffs on Sentinel Prime to leave the Elite Guard's ship. Meeting up with his crew, he helped them remove the shard and save the humans. Magnus and Sentinel, who by now had broken out of his cuffs, were about to rip Optimus a new one for insubordination, assault, and the lack of evidence over the Decepticons—at which point Starscream's body crashed mere meters away from them, having been offlined by Megatron (again). When Starscream knocked out Ultra Magnus, Optimus took command (much to Sentinel's displeasure). He managed to place the stasis-cuffs on Starscream, and Ultra Magnus decided that Optimus Prime and his team would be allowed to stay on Earth, locate the remaining AllSpark shards, and arrest the remaining Decepticons. Later on, when Bulkhead brought Scrapper and Mixmaster back to Autobot headquarters, Optimus was not impressed with their antics and demanded that they leave. Optimus warned Bulkhead that the duo were not worth spending time with and that they were not capable of learning the ways of an Autobot. After the Constructicons were 'persuaded' by Megatron that their talents would be better utilized in the Decepticon ranks, Prime was furious and despite Bulkhead's insistence that they were his friends, Optimus questioned that they didn't know any better. Unfortunately, he was proved right when Mixmaster and Scrapper showed up and demanded that they hand over the AllSpark fragments, to which Prime naturally refused. A struggle ensued (in which Ratchet and Bumblebee insisted Prime was 'their dipstick') and Mixmaster held Bumblebee hostage and demands the AllSpark. Prime tried to stall for time and Bulkhead handed over the fragments, to Prime's dismay. Bulkhead then 'had one for the road' and his scheme came to light. With the fragments retrieved, Optimus consoled a distraught Bulkhead and assured him that as long as the Constructicons (now having lost their memory due to the explosion caused by the tainted oil) were not wearing Decepticon badges, they still had a choice. At the end of this day, one shall stand, one shall melt. After learning that the Dinobots helped Meltdown escape, Prime took Prowl and Bumblebee to investigate Dinobot Island. There, he learned that Blackarachnia was manipulating the Dinobots, and had struck a deal with Meltdown to remove her organic half. However, Meltdown needed a genetic modifier. Blackarachnia, having poisoned Prowl and Bumblebee with her venom, told Prime to help Grimlock get the modifier in exchange for the antivenom that would save his Autobots. Though Prime tried to convince Grimlock of Blackarachnia's evil intentions, Grimlock would hear none of it. Returning to the mainland, Prime revoked his "protector of humanity" title long enough for Grimlock to "convince" Porter C. Powell to tell them where the modifier was. When Powell realized it was valuable, Prime was tempted to let Grimlock finish him off, but decided the Autobots didn't have time. Returning to Dinobot Island, Meltdown turned the tables on them, revealing that he planned to remove Blackarachnia's mechanic half, and sicced his experiments on Prime and Grimlock. With the other Dinobots help, they sent the mutants packing. Prime then removed the modifier before Meltdown could finish his experiments, and exposure to the modifier caused Meltdown to break apart. Blackarachnia urged Optimus to come closer, but Grimlock's jealousy caused him to attack, allowing Blackarachnia to flee. When Prime went to Prowl and Bumblebee, he found the anti-venom, and saved their sparks. Although Powell tried to have Prime arrested, Fanzone refused to do anything about it. Because she left the anti-venom, however, Optimus Prime was hopeful that somewhere beneath the anger and betrayal of Blackarachnia, there was still something left of Elita-1... When Bulkhead was kidnapped by Megatron, Bumblebee brought home Blurr, an Elite Guard intelligence agent who had been assigned to monitor the Decepticons and investigate Optimus Prime's crew (good odds on the one who gave Blurr his orders). When Blurr revealed where the Decepticons were, and that they were building a space bridge with Isaac Sumdac's help, Prime ordered Ratchet and Sari to get the ship back online, while he and the others went to rescue Bulkhead and stop the Decepticons. Before he left, he admitted that he wasn't sure if Professor Sumdac was willingly cooperating with the Decepticons, but promised Sari that he would bring him home alive. Heading to the mines, they were ambushed by Blitzwing and Lugnut, who were incapacitated by Blurr. Reaching the control room, the Autobots were incapacitated by the Constructicons. Fortunately, the Decepticons were too busy with the sudden arrival of Starscream and his clones/Seekers to immediately kill them. Managing to free himself, Optimus found himself in the odd position of fighting side by side with Megatron. But the battle went against the Autobots, with Blurr and a pair of clones/Seekers sucked into the space bridge and the other Autobots incapacitated. In typical Decepticon fashion, Megatron used Prime as a human (metaphorically speaking) shield against the clones. After the battle, Megatron decided to use Prime as a test to see if the space bridge worked, where Prime would be eliminated by Shockwave if it did. Fortunately, Prowl managed to break free from his stasis cuffs and shatter Optimus Prime's, allowing him to grapple Megatron. However, the power cut out, forcing Megatron to use the severed head of Starscream to further power the bridge, causing an overload. Prime managed to slap stasis cuffs on Megatron, sending him into the bridge. The Autobots were nearly sucked in as well, but Omega Supreme arrived and sacrificed himself to save them. As the bridge self-destructed, the Autobots managed to escape before the mountain came down on top of them. Though they mourned the losses of Omega and Blurr, Megatron's plot was foiled, so the Autobots could breathe a collective sigh of relief. Sighs of relief which turned to gasps of shock and horror when Sari noticed that the skin of her arm had been torn... revealing robotic circuitry underneath! After discovering Sari's identity as a Cybertronian, Optimus took the liberty of taking care of her (after observing upon being a fatherly role model) while she was dealing with her identity crisis and trust issues with her father. Eventually, Optimus sets up both Sumdacs at the Burger Bot to make up, until Masterson and his new Starscream body interfere. Optimus finally defeats him by tricking him into transforming into a jet and the Sumdacs have a family moment. After the catastrophic events of Sari's upgrade, Optimus reveals the coordinates of the Autobot base to Professor Sumdac after alerting him about Sari's condition (despite the complaints by his team), declaring that "there will be no more secrets in this family." After discovering that Megatron and Starscream had taken over Omega Supreme, Optimus and Prowl infiltrate the Autobot to help their friend gain control of his body. At one point, Optimus even tells Ratchet that he might have to undo the medical procedure that controlled the AllSpark energy within Sari's newly upgraded body and use it against Omega. (You are never winning 'father of the year' that way, Optimus...) Optimus dukes it out with Megatron long enough for Bumblebee to plant the plasma dynamic thruster on Omega, making the Decepticons transwarp randomly around space. When 'Wasp' (who was really Bumblebee in disguise) escapes the plant, Optimus and Ratchet try to help the Elite Guard capture him. At the same time, Optimus tries to convince Sentinel Prime that Wasp was framed as the Decepticon spy. After the real Wasp finally reveals himself (he and Bumblebee had switched paint jobs) and escapes, Optimus finally convinces Sentinel that Longarm Prime isn't what he appears to be... While trying to track down an escaped Wasp with Prowl and Jazz, Optimus witnesses a strange helmeted figure before seeing Sentinel capturing a Starscream clone. The Autobot leader becomes suspicious, while Sentinel assumes that he's jealous since he's catching the Decepticons that Optimus had failed to do with his team. Eventually, Optimus helps the Elite Guard capture one of the Deceptions and informing Cliffjumper that all of the credit went to Prowl, all the while being alerted about Ultra Magnus' condition. After Sentinel asks why Optimus gave all the credit to the ninja bot, Optimus merely answers (after telling Sentinel to stop being so selfish): "When the smoke clears, we're going to have it out." Finally tracking down Wasp once again, Sentinel's ego gets the best of Optimus as both Primes bicker about who's in charge of taking custody of the fugitive. Wasp takes the advantage to escape but is captured by the Dinobot Swoop, leaving Optimus and Bumblebee behind as Sentinel and the twins take pursuit of the fugitive. After encountering Blackarachnia, Sentinel and Optimus bicker (again) on why Optimus didn't tell his friend sooner about Blackarachnia's identity, Optimus replying that he didn't know how Sentinel would handle it. When an angry Waspinator attacks Blackarachnia after overhearing that his friend had used him as a guinea pig to help remove her organic half, Optimus tries to save her but instead witnesses her sacrifice to save everyone as she, along with Waspinator (and half of Dinobot Island) transwarps to parts unknown. In the aftermath, Optimus and Sentinel are left alone to discuss their past differences. Optimus apologizes for not telling him about Elita-1 while Sentinel accepts further saying "it's too late for apologizes". Optimus claims that "for better or worse" that Cybertron needed a leader while Ultra Magnus was recovering; Sentinel. During Christmas Eve, Optimus is suspicious about the release of Porter C. Powel's Soundwave toy (as the toy specs were stolen from Professor Sumdac and that the 'innocent' toy was once a Decepticon). Eventually, a sentient Soundwave toy lures Optimus to a speeding bullet train which almost takes his head off. On Christmas morning, he is the first of the Autobots to discover that he was mysteriously transformed into a human. After seeing Megatron and the Decepticons vanish after doing battle, Optimus later discovers that their human forms are merely part of a virtual reality program made by Soundwave to contain them. With the help of Prowl, Optimus helps his team regain their Autobot bodies...only to be ambushed by Soundwave himself! While trying to find a way out of Soundwave's virtual reality program, Optimus and the other Autobots become captured and brainwashed by Soundwave to obey him and destroy Sari, who's technorganic form made her resistant to Soundwave's powers. While doing battle with the Substitute Autobots, Soundwave focuses all his power on controlling Optimus, who almost chops Sari in half with his axe. When Soundwave's control is broken over him (thanks to Prowl, who had resisted Soundwave's control by using "processor over matter"), Optimus is pitted against the Decepticon in an epic guitar showdown and finally cuts Soundwave down to size - quite literally - with his own guitar, ending Soundwave's control over Detroit and destroying all of the Soundwave toys in the process. Upon picking up a distress signal from Sentinel Prime out in space (who's team was attacked by the newly revived Swindle and the other Decepticon prisoners), Optimus uses the newly constructed space bridge on Earth to transwarp to Sentinel's ship. Optimus had unknowingly followed Swindle's private transwarp frequency, forcing him to pop out of Swindle's dimensional storage space (the seemingly bottomless "drawer" in his chest) and gave the element of surprise to everyone on board the ship. Optimus eventually distracts the Decepticons long enough to free the others, only to be pulled into space to battle the Decepticons once more (while Swindle loots Sentinel's ship). During the battle, Blitzwing seems to have the advantage when he threatens to destroy Sentinel, but once he captures the Autobots and prepares to freeze them, his plan backfires as he and the other Decepticons become frozen instead. Secretly, this was Optimus' intention all along as he gave an order earlier to Jazz, while secretly issuing the real one through Cybertronian optical code. Humbled, Sentinel offers his spot on the Elite Guard to Optimus as he is to become Magnus once he returns to Cybertron, but Optimus declines the title, replying that he "still has business on Earth". Prime eventually gets his hands on a jetpack after realising he just isn't as awesome as Cybertron Optimus Prime. When Bulkhead and Bumblebee discovered that Omega Supreme was on the moon, Ratchet suggested that they go to the moon to save him and Arcee. Ratchet also suggested that they use the Magnus Hammer to defeat Megatron. Prime naturally refused and said that he wanted an upgrade to use to equal the field against Megatron. Sari, Professor Sumdac, and (with great reluctance) Ratchet did deliver in the form of a brand new jet pack. Optimus was having doubts about being a hero when the time came to face Megatron but Prowl convinced him otherwise. When Lugnut Supreme invaded Earth, Prime went out with the Magnus Hammer to face the new threat. With Prowl's help, Optimus used the Magnus Hammer against the Lugnut Supremes (with successfully eliminating one of them). Megatron eventually went after Optimus in order to buy some time for the clones to destroy the rest of the city. When Starscream revealed his plans to blow up Megatron, Optimus and the Decepticon leader were caught in the crossfire. Before the bomb went off, the spirit of a fallen Prowl rescued Optimus from the blast and saved his life. When Optimus finally defeated Megatron, he refused to finish him off, explaining that Megatron didn't deserve it. Instead, Optimus and his crew brought Megatron (along with the other Decepticons) back to Cybertron under custody, where Optimus was celebrated as a hero. Alternate Name: Sentinel Major, Sentinel Magnus Japanese Name: None Affiliation: Autobot Alternate Mode: 2008 Ford F-150 Weapons: Lance and shield Sentinel Prime is a member of the Cybertron Elite Guard under the command of Ultra Magnus. Sentinel has a history of rivalry with Optimus Prime, who attended the Autobot Academy with him. In his academy days, he was somewhat of a maverick, leading the more responsible Optimus to refer to him as a "walking malfunction." Of course, he's the one that ended up on the Elite Guard while Optimus was sent off to repair space bridges, of which fact he's all too fond of reminding his former classmate... despite the fact that it was only because of Optimus who got the position. He also has a bit of a superiority complex toward non-guardsmen Autobots, not to mention that he's intensely organic-phobic. He usually transforms into a Cybertronic bulldozer, but temporarily adopted the form of a snow plow truck for his stay on Earth. He later returned to his original form after leaving the planet. He possesses an energy lance and an arm-mounted shield which can be expanded into a force-field, as well as tossed about as a weapon. Basically, he'd be a knight in shining armor — if he had a better personality. However, despite his arrogant exterior, there resides a spark of goodness in him. He really does care for his friends and on extremely rare occasions, does show a small degree of respect for Optimus. But in most cases, Sentinel has a lot of trouble showing his concern for his friends and his begrudging respect for Optimus. Don't mention his chin. He's a little touchy about it. He is based on the Tick. Sentinel took Optimus and Elita-1 on a mission to an organic planet looking for an old Decepticon warship, hoping to get all the energon stored within. However, they ran into a pack of massive arachnids. Sentinel tried to hold them off long enough for Optimus and Elita to escape. When he came across a ship that Optimus and Elita had found, Optimus had to drag him away from the exploding energon, forcing them to leave Elita-1 behind. Optimus's radar couldn't find Elita's energy signature, and he assumed that she was dead. A furious Sentinel blamed Optimus for what happened, even though this whole disaster had been his idea. During their trial conducted by Ultra Magnus, facing court martial reguarding the events of what happened to Elita-1, and there breaking the strict rule against going near or landing on planets occupied by organics. Sentinel cowardly blammed the whole thing on Optimus, saying that it was his idea and ran away when Elita-1 was trapped. Saying that he himself would have gone after her but was forced to retreat for fear of being separated from Optimus. When in reality it was the other way around. Because of Sentinel's ridiculous accusations, Optimus was discharged from the Acadamy and forbidden from joining the Elite Guard. While Sentinel got off easy, being allowed to stay in the academy, but was probably demoted. Still liking Optimus, Ultra Magnus pulled a few strings (or wires) and landed Optimus a job as a Maintenance Ship Captain. After graduation from the Autobot Academy, he received an official rank Minor, the drill officer for an Autobot training camp. Obviously compensating for being a jerk, he took out his frustrations on recruits like Bumblebee, Bulkhead, Ironhide, Longarm and Wasp. Busting their transistors at every turn, he liked to conduct surprise inspections and force the recruits to chant that they were worthless grease stains. Of course, in Bumblebee's case, the extra attention was not exactly unmerited, as the little glitch-head managed to get Sentinel's feelings on whether Ultra Magnus should retire from command broadcast across the camp. In the end, he commended Bumblebee for his role in discovering a seeming Decepticon spy/traitor. Of course then Bumblebee admitted to accidentally knocking a tower on him (actually covering for Bulkhead) and Sentinel gave him the boot. Years later, he was still a jerk, but a jerk with prestige, having been promoted to Sentinel Prime. When Optimus Prime rang up the Cybertron Elite Guard to tell them of the Decepticons in pursuit, he sneered that a screw-up like Optimus wasn't worth the attention of Ultra Magnus. Piping through a visual of the AllSpark from the cargo hold of their ship shut him up quickly enough. After the ship was lost, Sentinel found himself the only one who knew Optimus well enough to give him a eulogy. However, while his words were reasonably civil, his thoughts were not. Later, when Longarm pressed him to continue the search, Sentinel acted like an old man and told him some things are best left buried. Later, the Elite Guard visited Earth to reclaim the AllSpark. When Jazz decided to take a closer look at the humans, Sentinel warned that organics could spew out slime that melts through armor plating, deliberately goading Optimus Prime with memories of Elita One's fate. He decontaminated Optimus Prime's crew after setting a force field around the ship. When he heard that they'd defeated Megatron and the Decepticons, he didn't believe Optimus, almost causing a fight between him and Bulkhead. Sentinel boasted to Ultra Magnus that he had taken the initiative and scanned some "typical" Earth vehicles so they would not draw undue attention. He had, in fact, scanned massive, destructive vehicles for them both. Admittedly, if Sentinel Prime had conducted his scan in winter (and there WAS a winter between Optimus contacting the Elite Guard and the Elite Guard actually getting there) a snow plow wouldn't have stood out, and would have appeared very powerful and useful then. So he's not as much a total moron as all that. The route to Dinobot Island, Sentinel further evidenced how subtlety obviously isn't his strong point by driving through a blockade and off an overpass still under construction. When he, Optimus, and Magnus arrived, they encountered the Dinobots, and Sentinel began to attack, believing their technology was primitive. Grimlock's subsequent transformation caught him off guard. They then went back to the city to take care of malfunctioning police drones. Sentinel started to act ignorant, more worried about organic contamination, and vowed to see Optimus arraigned on charges of high treason, but Optimus had finally got enough of Sentinel's mouth and finally told him off, saying to his former friend that Sentinel was on his turf now and he should respect Optimus' decisions. Unsurprisingly, Sentinel was unmoved. Even when shown proof of the All Spark not being destroyed, Sentinel's attitude did not change. He was thus rather surprised when Ultra Magnus said that Optimus had characteristics that Sentinel himself could stand to learn. Not taking the criticism to heart at all, he continued to be a general to Optimus, the local police, humans, and pretty much everyone. His comeuppance would soon come in the form of a humiliating body-jacking by the Headmaster. Putting his reputation (and his noggin) in Optimus Prime's hands, he trusted his comrade to help him get his body back without letting anybody else find out. In this state he was slightly less condescending to Optimus, but it was hard to talk down to someone when reduced to 1/10th his size. He still had choice words about Optimus' practices in the process of saving his body however, such as ripping its arm off and using his head as a soccer ball. Deep down, Optimus was enjoying himself. After recovering his body, Sentinel had to face the embarrassing prospect of reporting to Ultra Magnus, but surprisingly enough, Optimus covered for him. It took every ounce of effort for the big guy to utter a "thank you" to his comrade later. While in the Headmaster's possession, Sentinel's body's weapons were upgraded into more powerful forms. At the moment it's not clear whether Sentinel got to keep the upgrades when the Headmaster Unit was separated or not. When Optimus protested Ultra Magnus's decision to have his crew join the rest of the Autobots off-Earth, Sentinel was quick to jump on Optimus, saying that no sign of Decepticon activity had been detected (failing to consider that the Decepticons had been dampening their signals). He even went so far as to bribe Optimus with an offer of reinstatement in the Elite Guard if he went along with the official story. Through all this, he was more than slightly keen to slap stasis cuffs on Optimus in order to get him to comply with Magnus's orders. When the Elite Guard's ship detected an AllSpark fragment in a runaway passenger train (actually a trap set by Starscream), Sentinel was irritated to find that he had to stay behind and nursemaid "Maintenance Prime" while Ultra Magnus and Jazz set off to investigate. The situation got worse when, discovering Decepticon presence, Optimus goaded Sentinel into a blind attack and took the opportunity to slap the stasis cuffs on him. Sentinel eventually worked his way out of the cuffs and pursued Optimus to where the AllSparked train had stopped, threatening to have him tried and blacklisted for assaulting an Elite Guard, dismissing out of hand Optimus's justification of Decepticon involvement. Fortunately for Optimus, Megatron and Blitzwing chose that moment to blast Starscream to the ground in front of the Autobots. Sentinel had to take more time than the other Elite Guards to rally; unlike Magnus and Optimus, he had never seen a Decepticon before. Initial dismay aside, Sentinel did manage to last longer than the other Autobots against Starscream's onslaught, but the only reason he didn't fall was that Optimus took the stasis cuffs Sentinel had brought with him (anticipating Optimus's formal arrest as he was) and slapped them onto Starscream. Sentinel still thought Optimus drew out that battle on purpose. Sentinel vs Optimus, with Jazz in the middle "You're a jerk!" "No, you!" "No, YOU!" "Ummm... bad guy, that way?" Afterwards, Magnus expressed admiration over Optimus's willingness to disregard what were clearly ill-informed orders— praise to which Sentinel, predictably, objected. This just earned him another chastisement from Magnus about how sometimes the right thing was to trust one's gut over the book. Shortly afterwords, the Elite Guard departed for Cybertron. Sentinel could probably sigh in relief — no more looking worse than the "washout". While in deep space when Ultra Magnus was making plans to create the first flying autobots using flight protocols from Starscream, the real Starscream managed to escape his stasis cuffs and get out of the Elite Guard's ship, but the flight protocols were already taken. Things only got worse for Sentinel, as his former student and convicted "traitor" Wasp escaped from prison. Pursuing the former Autobot across an asteroid field, Sentinel had a standoff with Wasp at a space bridge relay point. The escapee activated the space bridge, and blinded by its energies, Sentinel assumed he went through it to parts unknown. In reality, Wasp had mustered what little cunning his shattered mind had left and faked out the Elite Guard member by hiding behind the archway. As usual, Sentinel's deductive skills left something to be desired, so he returned to base. After the Autobots finally created the first flying Autobots Ultra Magnus ordered Sentinel Prime to train them, Sentinel did not want to at first thinking he was descended to Minor again, but Magnus convinced him. Sentinel's new troops passed the training in record time. Afterwards he, Jazz, Jetfire and Jetstorm were assigned by Ultra Magnus to capture the "traitor" Wasp. He and his crew followed Wasp to Earth, but he received a message from Longarm Prime saying they should have informed him first; another message from Ultra Magnus apologised to Longarm Prime. When he arrived to Earth, he was greeted by Optimus, and gave his standard greeting to the Elite Guard washout. While he continued to pursue Wasp, he ordered his troops Jetfire and Jetstorm after Wasp (and later had to give a bit of an explanation for the aerial Autobots). Upon finding Wasp, he was told by Bulkhead that this was, in fact, Bumblebee and that Wasp was not a traitor, but that the real traitor was Longarm Prime aka Shockwave. After refusing to believe this (and being forced to watch the insane bot threaten Bumblebee and escape) Sentinel returned to his ship. When Sentinel successfully captured Sunstorm, Blitzwing, the paralyzed Swindle and even Lugnut, Prowl and Jazz both suspected he was getting help and that help turned out to be Lockdown. Lockdown and the original not Liar Starscream double cross Sentinel. Prowl, Jazz and the others are able to stop them, but Lockdown escaped. Sentinel, Optimus and both of their crews were later informed that Ultra Magnus was attacked by Shockwave on Cybertron. Later, Wasp is tracked down again by the Autobots but in the middle of a feud, Wasp escapes and is captured by Swoop and taken to Blackarachnia. Sentinel Prime receives a warning from Optimus not to proceed to Dinobot Island. Optimus suspected Blackarachnia's involvement and hadn't told Sentinel about the fate of Elita-1 (being turned into a techno-organic). Sentinel ignored the order and ordered Jetfire and Jetstorm to create a diversion to distract the Dinobots who are guarding the door. Sentinel heads into the base where he confronts Blackarachnia and learns her former identity, but is disgusted and attacks her. A Transwarp device overloads and Wasp emerges from the chamber as a large wasp. He transforms into a techno-organic robot mode and announces that he is now WASPINATOR. Bumblebee and Optimus arrive on the scene. Waspinator attacks Bumblebee, but suffers an energy surge. Optimus and Sentinel bicker over why Optimus didn't forewarn Sentinel over Blackarachnia's identity, but she interrupts them and tries to escape. Blackarachnia tells them that she only created him so she could experiment (with Transwarp energy) on how to change him back without the organic half (which could destroy him), and thus experiment on herself, claiming that going offline would be the "price of science". But Waspinator was listening, and turns on Blackarachnia. She notices that Waspinator's Transwarp signature has becomes unstable, and is chased out of the lab, knocking over Bumblebee in the process. Optimus and Bumblebee carry Sentinel back outside. Jetstorm and Jetfire have finished off the Dinobots questioning whether they were "enough distracted", but see Blackarachnia emerge from the entrance and the enraged Waspinator. As Waspinator attacks Blackarachnia, Optimus intervenes and says that he's not leaving without her again. But Blackarachnia declines, and she forms a cocoon around her and Waspinator as he begins to uncontrollably overload. The Autobots flee, barely escaping the explosion. Most of Dinobot Island is destroyed. The Autobots awake, Optimus claiming that she "sacrificed herself to save them", but Sentinel sorely laments that she used Waspinator to "bug out", and walks away quietly. Back on the Detroit, Jazz and the Jet twins bid farewell to Optimus and his Autobots. Optimus and Sentinel are left alone, and Optimus apologizes for not telling him about Elita-1, and Sentinel accepts further saying "it's too late for apologies". Optimus claims "for better of worse" that Cybertron needed a leader; Sentinel. The Elite Guard ascend in their ship back to Cybertron. When on there way to Cybertron, Sentinel discused with and insulted Alpha Trion, Perceptor and Cliffjumper, jerk. Meanwhile, a bolt of energy fron the Nebula the ship was passing revived Swindle, then he freed the other prisoners (Lugnut, Sunstorm, Blitzwing and Liar Starscream) and together they took control of the ship and taken prisoner Sentinel and his crew. On Earth a space bridge has been built, and when Sentinel asked for help (because he did not want Cybertron to know about this) Optimus went to their aid by Swindle's private transwarp frequency. Optimus freed the prisoners and with a plan with Jazz he managed to recapture Sunstorm, Liar Starscream and Blitzwing while Lugnut and Swindle escaped. Sentinel then gave Optimus a ride back to Earth, Sentinel offered his spot on the Elite Guard to Optimus, but Optimus refused due to his role on Earth. Sentinel then saluted Optimus before he went back to Cybertron. On Cybertron a huge celebration was held to honor their new leader Sentinel Magnus (until Ultra Magnus recovered), in his speech Sentinel declared he would hunt down Shockwave and everyone cheered for him. After becoming temporary Magnus, Sentinel began a propaganda campaign against other possible spy activity like Shockwave and started a strict curfew in certain parts of Cybertron, restricted space bridge travel, and closed any establishments he believed would be a potential decepticon rendezvous. During this period, Ratchet and Captain Fanzone arrived on Cybertron due to an accident with Bulkhead's space bridge. They were found by the Elite Guard with Sentinel accusations of law-breaking, also mentioning some form of quarantine against organic life forms. He, along with the rest of the Elite Guard, soon discovered Omega Supreme floating in the sky above Cybertron. Sentinel and the Elite Guard then detained Ratchet and Fanzone and went straight to the Council. Sentinel suggesting to blast Omega out of the sky with the Cybertronian Defense Cannons. However, Ratchet objected to the suggestion. After defending Omega, Sentinel took offense and set the Elite Guard to arrest him for treason. While he sent Jazz after a fleeing Ratchet, Sentinel and the Jet Twins went to prepare Fortress Maximus for battle against the Council's wishes. Sentinel arrived just at the wrong time during a fight between Ratchet and Shockwave and briefly believed the old bot planned on assassinating Ultra Magnus. Unfortunately, Sentinel's arrival allowed Shockwave to take Arcee and getaway with the Decepticons in Omega Supreme. Sentinel appeared along with the cheering crowd for Optimus and his team when they returned to Cybertron. Apparently jealous of how Optimus managed to capture Megatron with his "worthless" crew of maintenance workers when he couldn't do it with a crew of trained Elite Guards.
