    Is Cybertron (and the original Primes) made from 'transformium' (thus made by the creators)?

    Or is it only the transforming transformers that are made from transformers?

    Optimus said that Transformium was used to make them, not the planet.

    Given that the Creators had to use Seeds to generate Transformium from other planets, you wouldn't think so.

    BTW, is Transformium an official name used on Cybertron or is it only human exclusive? Kind of like the word 'Transformers' which is used by humans to describe Cybertronians, but you don't hear them call themselves that (it's usually Autobots, Decepticons, Cybertronians, Maximals or any other name). Do Autobots use the word 'Transformium'?

    Very interesting because Quintessa referes to their race as Transformers.I know maybe a few if any remember that line tho haha but yes I don't think Transformium is a thing they use,just the humans.

    Interesting indeed. I haven't seen TLK yet. Who is she exactly in the context of the movie and when she says their race does she includes herself into them?

    Well spoilers here so don't read unless you really want to know lol
    When she first introduces herself she says she's Quintessa the Prime Of Life(we learn later that the staff was her life giving instrument) and later she slaps him and he gets the mark she says he has to fix it(refering to Prime who doomed Cybertron)or the race of Transformers will die forever
    I excluded some parts especially in the dialogue..the exact quotes and other stuff because it would be great if you experience it for yourself but I can answer in PM..anything really:p

    Cybertron is certainly made of Transformium as we see Cybertron rebuilding itself draining energy from Unicron's spark. Cybertron got its Energon from the Allspark. However that if finite. Hence the Seven Primes seeking stars to harvest to convert to Energon using the Matrix on the Sun Harvester.

    Thus theoretically the Staff is a similar Energon relic as the other two if Unicron's Spark is made out of Energon like the Transformers.

    It is starting to look to me the Creators are the original Cybertronians aka the Primes. We can infer the form of the Creators were the basis of the Primes due to the Creator's hand being an organic version of the Seven Primes hands. The language of the civilization that came before the Autobots, Cybertronian, was also known as the Language of the Primes. Sentinel Prime mentions they were all gods. Quintessa calling herself the Prime of Life is also called a goddess.

    The original Decepticons came from the Fallen's Seekers. Given the reverence and knowledge about the Knights among the Autobots it is fair to assume similarly they are the founders of the Autobots. Propping up descendant Primes like Sentinel Prime and Optimus Prime to legitimize the new regime.

    Yes it looks like both groups are the result of revolts.
