Leaked documents show he had been receiving up to three hundred energon cubes per year by claiming the articulated lorry he transforms into as his second home.</p> <p>'I was led to believe this was within the rules and that everyone else was doing it. I now realise I made a severe error of judgement. I have let you all down, and by the spires of Cybertron I beg for your forgiveness,' he read from a prepared statement, as dramatic music played in the background.</p> <p>Evil Decepticon leader Megatron said: 'This is just the kind of moral bankruptcy we've come to expect from the puny Autobots. These cowardly hunks of scrap metal will be destroyed utterly by our demands for greater transparency and accountability.'</p> <p>Prime's replacement is expected to be Grimlock, whose youth, charisma and ability to transform into a dinosaur make him popular with robot voters. </p>
