Thanks To ADAge, we were able to get our hands on some tidbits about the upcoming HUB Transformers TV Series “Transformers: Prime”.

The BEST news so far is that the TV Show’s Optimus Prime will be voiced by the legendary Peter Cullen himself. Mr. Cullen is the iconic voice of Optimus from the 80s’ G1 and Michael Bay’s Transformers Live Action Movie Franchise.

“Transformers: Prime will feature the voice of Peter Cullen, the original voice of Optimus Prime from the animated series as well as the Michael Bay-directed feature films. Additionally, "Transformers" feature screenwriters Alex Kurtzman and Robert Orci will act as showrunners.”

Also, due to the government restrictions, Transformers: Prime cannot show advertisements relating to Transformers Toys during the air time. However, it can show other toy commercials such as G.I. Joe or My Little Pony. But other shows such as G.I. Joe: Renegades, can air Transformers Toy Commercials during the commercial breaks.

“Transformers toys, for example, can't air within or adjacent to the "Transformers" show due to government restrictions. The same goes for other Hasbro-branded programs that also have products to advertise at retail.”

Got one more bit of info. Till now, G1 is the only vintage show planned to go live at the HUB. However we expect the Beast Era, the Unicron Trilogy and other nostalgic Transformers Cartoons will air as the new TV Channel matures.

Transformers: Prime will air on 10/10/10.
