Zeta Prime

Zeta Prime is a character in the Transformer fiction series.
Transformers: Generation 1
In Generation 1, Zeta Prime is voiced by Phillip Clarke (in English). He inherited the Matrix of Leadership from Guardian Prime when he was killed during the early days of the war with the Decepticons. His stint as Autobot leader appears to have been a short-lived one, as he died before the end of the war and was succeeded by Sentinel Prime.
When Rodimus Prime journeyed into the Matrix in 2005, Zeta Prime was the fifth guide he encountered, who gave a very short account of the continuing Autobot-Decepticon war.

Zeta Prime was given the unenviable task of solidifying Sentinel Prime's Autobot security forces into a true army to withstand the civil war Cybertron suddenly found itself embroiled in. Towards this end, he locked down most recreational activities, as they were magnets for terrorist activity by the Decepticons. This included a direct order to shut down the races which brought Blurr's stardom. In the wake of these shutdowns, he increased Autobot recruitment heavily, and many former entertainers joined the Autobot forces, only to find they were ill-prepared for the realities of war. Many attempts on his life were hatched, including one which was intercepted by a group of Autobots that included a young soldier named Optimus. Optimus was able to convince Blurr to carry news of the plot to Zeta Prime before the assassins could reach him.
Kup later implied that, like his predecessor, Zeta Prime was killed by Megatron.
