  • Fair warning that this is the panel that usually includes a "no photography" slideshow. We're going to try to bring it to you live, but if Hasbro says no devices, we'll have to get you a report after it's over.
  • UPDATE (1:09pm PST) No devices. Denied! Daytonus has promised us a report immediately following. Sorry guys, I wanted the live coverage too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon-screamer.gif)

I've been saying it. Finally a word of god on this! Thank you!

Except the entirety of fiction describes most Transformers with masculine pronouns and a few with feminine pronouns. Nevermind the adherence to gendered stereotypes.

They can insist otherwise, but they have given and will still give characters the male gender because it's thought of as "default".
