Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Complete this oft-repeated quote from Optimus Prime: "Autobots- Transform and____!"

Answer: Roll out

2. In the early episodes in particular, by what means do the Decepticons transport goods between Earth and Cybertron?

Answer: Spacebridge

In 'The Ultimate Doom,' through the use of a mssive Spacebridge, Megatron manages to transport the whole planet of Cybertron into Earth's orbit, triggering many natural disasters such as tidal waves and earthquakes.
3. Which of the following Autobots is NOT primarily red?

Answer: Hound

Hound is green.
4. What talent is most associated with the Autobot named Mirage?

Answer: He can turn invisible at will

Many times this ability has proved invaluable the Autobots, such as in 'More Than Meets the Eye' part three when he infiltrates and sabotages the Decepticon's space-shuttle on it's way back to Cybertron with copious amounts of Earth's energy.
5. Which of these is NOT a tape transformer that ejects from Soundwave?

Answer: Death-Trap

Rat-Bat only appears in the post-movie episodes. Others include the more recognisable names of Lazor-beak, Ravage, and Rumble.
6. What is the name of Spike's female friend that appears in several episodes?

Answer: Carly

Presumably to provide a role-model to the little girls that enjoyed the show, who up till then, had only male robots and humans to watch.
7. The Constructicons merge to become which powerful giant robot?

Answer: Devastator

The constructicons were once Autobots, and friends of Omega Supreme back on Cybertron, until Megatron converted them to evil through the use of his ridiculous 'Robo-Smasher.' Devastator caused many a head-ache for the Autobots after the Constructicons were rebuilt by the Decepticons in the 80's.
8. Which Dinobot's named Slag?

Answer: The Triceratops

He is the aggressive one. There are four others: The leader; Grimlock (Tyranosaurus Rex), Sludge (Brontosaurus), Snarl (Stegosaurus) and Swoop (Pteranodon). There was no Allosaurus.
9. How many Insecticons are there in the series?

Answer: 3

The Insecticons are Decepticons who evolved to match the insects around them when they crash-landed on Earth. They consisted of Bombshell (beetle), Kickback (grasshopper), and Shrapnel (lamellicorn). They did have the ability to make clones of themselves.
10. What is the name of the Transformer that was originally a Decepticon, but changed sides?

Answer: Skyfire

He was discovered in the ice by the Decepticons after he had crash-landed on Earth while on a scouting mission with Starscream when they were all still on Cybertron. Being himself a good Transormer, he soon changes sides when he sees what Megatron and the others are like.
11. What vehicles are the basis of the Combaticons?

Answer: World War II units

They are found by Starscream on a remote Island he is in exile on, and with 5 renegade Decepticon personality chips he steals from Cybertron, he creates the Combaticons to be his army, in his quest to dethrone Megatron. They merge to become the formiddable Bruticus, who, after devastating Devastator, looks certain to achieve Starscream's aim if it weren't for Menasor, who launches a sneak-attack from behind.
12. What is the name of the largest robot ever seen in the series, first encountered in 'Transformers: The Movie' and appearing as only a head in the post-movie episodes?

Answer: Unicron

Created by Primacron to destroy the Universe, he doesn't get very far, and has all but his head destroyed. However he is not completely dead, and makes a deal with Starscream to get his eyes back, then plans on making Cybertron his new body. He is responsible for converting Megatron into Galvatron, and creating Cyclonus, Scourge and the Sweeps from other rejected Decepticons.
13. Who is leader of the Autobots after the movie?

Answer: Rodimus Prime

He often feels unworthy as leader though, as he is not the first choice to receive the 'Matrix of Leadership', it is originally meant to be Ultra Magnus. Originally Hot Rod, he becomes Rodimus Prime after he opens the Matrix.
14. Who created the Transformers to serve them, and became regulars in the series after appearing in the movie?

Answer: Quintessons

Known for their five rotating faces, the Quintessons and their new servants the Sharkticons, continue to cause trouble for both Autobots and Decepticons alike.
15. Metroplex can transform from city-mode, to battle-station, and to very large robot. What is the name of the Decepticon equivalent he has fought on many an occasion?

Answer: Trypticon

Whereas Metroplex transforms into a humanoid robot, Trypicon becomes a giant dinosaur, and because of his inferior mobility and speed, Tryticon always loses. However the big advantage he has over Metroplex is that he, unlike the latter, can fly, so he can do all the damage he likes on other planets, and all Metroplex can do is shake his fist, stuck back on Earth.
