Congratulations Sebimus_Prime

I don't know that I agree with their answers. Transformers was called Diakron/Diaclone, not Car Robots.

It kind of got me too. I was so prepared for it to be Diaclone, think that's why I think I mucked it up. I'm glad they cut the bit where I tried to explain it though.

Congrats on winning.

I was really pleased to see Sebastian get to the final round, as I would have been really curious to see what HQ considered "hard" questions for Transformers.

(someone was a bit nervous... ...I would have been too)

.

I didn't realise how nervous I was until I watched it back.
I also remember thinking how easy those last ones were. I kind of feel like they just watched Chris McFeely's Basics series for their trivia. haha.

And for everyone who's asked... (Couldn't figure out how to embed it)

Thanks for all the kind words everyone.

Well played! It's easy for us sitting in the comfort of our own homes to play along, but obviously more nerve-wracking when you're on national television.

I actually fumbled on 3 questions:
* the one about Ratchet (I answered "Nurse Ratchet," which is the character, not the film)
* the one about Bayformers Bumblebee's alt mode (I said VW Beetle )
* the one about Yoke Hideaki's favourite TF (I just plain didn't know - also the host's mispronunciation of "Hideaki" was offputting for me, although he did pronounce "Yoke" correctly (which a lot of other people don't)).

Congrats on winning Hard Quiz! Btw, feel free to check out the Transformers Trivia thread and have a play at past questions, or feel free to test us and post questions of your own!

P.S.: I love the expression "on brand" and I think I'll start using this in my personal lexicon now.

Congratulations on the win

Congrats on the quiz. I got 2 wrong;
Megatron being based on Man from Uncle (For some reason i thought it was James Bond, but as soon as you said it I remembered the picture from the show with one of them with the gun.
And The Optimus Playstation one for some DEMENTED reason I said CD player, not playstation.

I hate to end the guesses, but it's me. Been lurking around here for ages. I hope I don't disappoint everyone.

A well deserved win Seb!

I havent seen any episodes prior (the host is annoying AF) but made sure I watched tonight. And from the western suburbs too.

Congratulations you did a great job

Just streamed it. Well done Sebastian! Despite the nerves (and i would've been in exactly the same boat) you did great, and not only chalked up a brilliant win against nature (take that snake guy!) but also great exposure for Transformers.

The only question I did stumble on was Perceptor. I wonder what the last question would've been?

Would've been great to meet Tom too..... personal favourite comedian of mine

Hope Grimmy is enjoying his new Golden Throne!

[MayzaPrime]

I watched it with my kids... who all were very excited that Transformers won...

Sebimus, we need a picture of MP Grimlock on the Hard Quiz trophy, and one of you practicing your buzzer technique.
