1) Prove to me Prowl is male rather than possessing characteristics you regard as masculine.

2) Prowl is a robot. Or a toy representing a robot.

3) http://www.theregister.co.uk/2002/04/08 ... _security/
'He' is the singular indefinite pronoun in English ("if a person drinks too much, he will likely experience a hangover"). 'He' also happens to be the masculine personal pronoun.

'She' is the singular pronoun of personification in English ("if England fails to advance America's foreign-policy ambitions, she will suffer terrible consequences"). 'She' also happens to be the feminine personal pronoun.
Referring to a character, you can call it He. Referring to a robot, you can call it She. Referring to a toy, there is absolutely nothing wrong with calling it She.

QED, bitch.

Packaging isn't too shabby. The toy as a whole doesn't look too shabby either for a motorcycle!

A spur-of-the-moment thing. "she" just seemed more appropriate. :)

Wonder what the deal is with the traffic light. Doesn't look much fun.

Maybe Hasbro finally decided to give Traffic-Light Autobot a toy?

Although the grammar is wonky, I'm going to guess they mean 2 as in the number of weapons the figure comes with rather than the number of blades the stars have (though I'll admit that I only see one in the package. hrm).

Edit: tformers.com has an additional picture showing a close up of Prowl's bio. They don't have a close up of his traffic light, unfortunately.
