Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Which Decepticon produces the energon cubes from his chest?

Answer: Soundwave

Soundwave is probably the most loyal Decepticon to Megatron's commands. He is obedient yet somewhat uncharismatic. Soundwave's voice is awesome!

2. In the episode "Autobot Spike", a brief glimpse of which movie was being watched by Spike?

Answer: Frankenstein

Spike's mind was transferred into a robot designed by his father Sparkplug. Spike became confused and started destroying everything because he thought he had become a monster.

3. Mirage has the ability to do what?

Answer: Become invisible

Mirage was an F1 style car in vehicle mode. His invisibility power helps infiltrate most of the Decepticons' plans. This was used to full effect when he infiltrated the Decepticons' ship and blew up the control panel, causing them to crash into the sea.

4. Which of the following Transformers is the odd one out?

Answer: Inferno

Blitzwing, Brawl and Warpath are all tanks in vehicle mode. Brawl was one of the Combaticons created by Starscream, who merged to create Bruticus. Inferno was a red fire engine.

5. Which of the following does not become part of the gestalt robot form of Devastator when the Constructicons merge?

Answer: Hoist

Hoist was an Autobot who transformed into a Tow truck in robot mode. The six Constructicons who merge to form Devastator were Bonecrusher, Scrapper, Scavanger, Mixmaster, Long Haul and Hook. Hoist and Grapple were both Autobots, and were the inventors of buildings back on Cybertron.

6. When trying to discover the weaknesses of the Dinobots, what did Megatron say was Sludge's weakness?

Answer: He was stupid

The Dinobots were created by Ratchet and Wheeljack when they found some fossils in a cave behind the Autobot Headquarters. Sludge was based on a Brontosaurus, Slag was based on a Triceratops, Grimlock was based on a T-Rex, Swoop was based on a Pteranodon and Snarl was a Stegosaurus.

7. In the episode "A Prime Problem", how does Windcharger not become destroyed when he falls into the pits filled with the energy crystals?

Windcharger was based on a Pontiac Trans Am in vehicle mode and was one of the fastest Autobots. He was also one of the smaller Autobots like Brawn, Cliffjumper and Bumblebee.

8. Which of the following robots is the odd one out?

Answer: Beachcomber

Beachcomber, unlike the other three is not a triple changer. Blitzwing could switch from being a jet, a tank and a robot. Astrotrain was a train, a space shuttle and a robot. Springer was a sports car, a helicopter and a robot. The other Decepticon triple changer was Octane, who was a jumbo jet, a refueling truck and a robot.

9. Which of the following is NOT one of Soundwave's cassettes?

Answer: Ramjet

Soundwave commanded some smaller Decepticons who turned into cassettes and were stored in his chest. These were Frenzy, Rumble, Ratbat, Laserbeak, Buzzsaw and Ravage. Ramjet was one of the Decepticon jets dubbed the "Coneheads" along with Dirge and Thrust.

10. When Megatron builds a machine to harness the power of the Sun, which Autobot is captured by the Decepticons to help harvest the power?

Answer: Gears

Gears had his personality chip removed by Starscream, which affected his ability to logically oppose Megatron's commands, however Gears stopped moaning!
