    How well-known do you think he is? And how would his popularity compare to other well-known figures?

    The design of the character is well-known, but Prime isn't necessarily known as "Prime" in the various markets where he's been available.  Nor is the storyline of the various Transformers TV shows the same everywhere either.  Compare that with Spiderman or Batman, whose origins and core characters are pretty much the same everywhere.
