Explanation of the conversion: Primal Prime's Movement Multipower slots only work in certain forms. He can't
use the running in jet mode and he cannot use the flying in gorilla or car forms.
History: Primal Prime was forged from the remnants of a control suit used by Quickstrike to manipulate Optimal Optimus during the Beast
Wars. Primal Prime was created by Volk using the Transmetal Driver, Optimus Prime and the
Matrix. Undeniably noble and instilled with a patchwork of convictions from leaders past, he inspires Transformers
throughout the galaxy with tales of Cybertron's glorious history. He was joined by Airazor and
Tigatron (Wreckers #1).
Airazor, Primal Prime and Tigatron set out to discover if any more stasis pods survived. They discovered and recruited
the Maximal Ramulas. Ambushed by the Predacons Tarantulas, Ravage, Razorclaw II, Spittor and
Iguanus, Primal Prime had the Matrix ripped out of his system (Wreckers #2).
After defeating Tarantulas, the Maximals were joined by Sonar and Packrat
as well as the Predacons Fractal and Spittor. Returning to Cybertron
he was joined by Apelinq and became leader of the Wreckers.
Once on Cybertron the Wreckers were joined by Rodimus and visited the Oracle computer were sent on a mission off planet.
Before leaving they were also joined by Arcee and Devcon as well as Decepticons Cyclonus, Skywarp and Rotorbolt (Wreckers #1).
Trivia: The toy of Primal Prime is similar to that of Optimal Optimus. There is a Chinese made knockoff of Primal
Prime which is smaller and has different colors and less features.
Powers: Primal Prime is energy efficient and has massive strength, toughness and reflexes. He is highly
intelligent and a skilled hand-to-hand combatant. He is an excellent leader. Primal Prime is a four changer, with three
alternate forms. He can become a transmetal gorilla, a ground assault
vehicle or a hypersoic attack jet. Primal Prime's weapons include chest mounted cannons, incendiary missiles and a laser rifle, which
he can use in any form. He has arm-mounted deflector shields. He recovers from
damage quicker in beast mode and is better protected from high energon levels as well.
When Primal Prime arrived on Cybertron he was immunized by Ape-Linq against the transformation locking
virus created by Megatron II.
Weaknesses: Primal Prime is perhaps too caring, willing to sacrifice himself for others. He is a Maximal of
his word, something his enemies have exploited in the past. High
energon fields can adversely effect Primal Prime if he stays in robot form for too long. His animal form is protected
from high energon levels.
