Question:

Transformers seven primes?

Can someone tell me what happened to the primes in transformers. I know Sentinel,Optimus and the fallen but what happened to the others ?

Answer:

Depends on the continuity. Traditionally, there were not seven, but thirteen original Primes. Neither Optimus or Sentinel were one of the originals, whether you want to say that there are thirteen or seven. Prime is simply a title given to the leaders of the Autobots, passed down from the original transformers. Since you said seven, I'm assuming you meant movie continuity. In that case, Megatronus Prime, later to be known as The Fallen betrayed the Primes' laws of peace, hence his name. The other six used their physical forms to create a vault in which to hide the Matrix of Leadership from The Fallen. The lore from other continuities is much more interesting however. The fate of those versions of the original Primes range from death, to splitting into smaller transformers and scattering across the galaxy, to living in their own pocket dimension in peace, or to chronicling the history of Cybertron, albeit with their true identity hidden.
