    Considering the amount of alive named transformers at the of the show equals 13.

    1 Optimus
    2 Rachet
    3 Bumblebee
    4 Arcee
    5 Bulkhead
    6 Wheeljack
    7 Smokescreen
    8 Ultra Magnus
    9 Starscream
    10 Knockout
    11 Airachnid
    12 Shockwave
    13 Prediking

    Are we looking at the rise of the new 13 Primes to take on Unicron Megatron in Predicons rising?

    You left out Skylynx and Darksteel.

    So unless they or a few others die, or if Airachnid sides with "Unitron", it might not happen.

    EDIT: You also left out Soundwave, who could easily be brought back from the Shadowzone.

    Most of them are extremely unworthy. Primes are so petty nowadays.

    Would Airachnid really still count as alive? Being an undead vampire zombie I mean.

    Airachnid's technically still alive. She was online when she was infected at least, hence why she retains her mind even when about to feed rather then just dying and coming back again :)

    I really don't think she'd give a damn about helping anyone save cybertron though..

    The ones in bold I'd have trouble swallowing as Primes. Shockwave's steadfast loyalty to the Decepticon cause, Starscream's rekindled loyalty to Megatron (plus Arcee is not likely to want to work with him due to Cliffjumper), Airachnid's self-loyalty, and Predaking not being likely to be loyal to either cause based on what they did to his 'brothers' would be a bit of a problem. With Knockout I don't see it so much being an issue of loyalties as it is that he just knows where his bread and butter is coming from, so to speak.

    I would think it more likely that of those four questionable slots, at least one would be a Predacon who wises up (Skylynx, probably), and I personally would like to see another slot filled by a human (most likely Jack).

    Airachnid and her army of (probably) fed upon and now undead Insecticons will serve Unicron since they have dark energon fused into their beings.

    Airachnid might actually be his new herald like how sideways was in Armada.

    I like that idea. I wouldn't bet on it, but I would definitely like to see it.

    Fingers crossed that your guess pans out.

    Airachnid isn't undead. She was only infected, but not killed. So she's pretty much a living vampire instead of a zombie. Same goes for the Insecticons. :) 

    I...really dont see most of these characters being a Prime.

    Take out undead/whateverIdontevencareanymore Airachnid and 'Staying on Earth and unlikely to end up in the final fight' Ratchet and replace them with Skylynx and Darksteel, and I'd say nice list.

    I highly doubt the writers are creative enough for that, but I rather like this idea. Would certainly make for an interesting showdown and a way to tie in the whole 'What it means to be a Prime'... I guess, I really don't care about that anymore.

    Yes! Airachnid Prime! And she'll get her own tv show, comic book, video game, and the Bay movies will focus on her now! What a great addition to the TF legacy!

    I want to see ratchet become medi-prime. Or maybe knockout become knock-prime.

    I hope Airachnid shows up briefly to finally die.
