I think Primal is probably the one movie Maximal I really, really like. Doesn't feel right to only have him without the rest of the team (who didn't really hit the mark for me) but I reckon I'll be getting an Apelinq on day one
@superomegaprimemk211 ай бұрын
Cheator & Rhinox are fairly intersting figures, Airrazor, is pretty much a modfifed Kingdom figure but given the fact she never actually transformed in the movie, I can see why they went that route, thou the mainline Airrazor actually did something different in terms of transformation
@AcanLord11 ай бұрын
Interesting observation i`ve made about this. The main line one basically does what Season 1 beastwars optimus primal does and The Studio series figure actually roughly follows the transformation scheme of Transmetal optimus primal, just without the Surf board.

So am I the only one who realizes the transformation is just a more advanced/ complicated version of Transmetal Primal's? Granted, that had one of the best Primal transformations.

I pre-ordered him. Got him and I'm not disappointed. Awesome figure. Little nitpicks. Marketed as Leader Class but it's actually Voyager the big one. But the accessories you get with it and the engineering, yeah I agree with price point. Awesome figure I rate 9.6 out of 10.

Super on the fence about Primal as Leaders are $75 here in Canada. Bot mode though looks amazing, detailed, articulated, and has a good inclusion of accessories. Height may not exactly be on his side but still looks a lot better value than the SS Scourge which retails for about the same has one arm canon and some compromised articulation.
@webev11 ай бұрын
$75? i thought $55 was a bit pricey, glad the only leaders i plan on getting for a while are legacy scourge (which im gonna get at ross, yay), ss101 scourge, and legacy united laser prime repack (i missed the original and toxitron is amazing)

I loveee this thing. Ive had it for some time. It woulda hit different with the battle mask tho. And what would have but it over the top for me is if they figured out a way to put an ab crunch but i still love it. Ape mode is really nice too. I also feel like the arms being rotated for the fur to be facing inwards instead of being on the outside was a mistransformation. Cause its literally more accurate for it to be on the outside. Even the front cgi box art shows it that way

Love this one, but the Takara one edges out a little bit higher simply because it can actually do the accurate gorilla walk. Gorillas actually walk on their first knuckles, not their fists. The extra hand articulation the Ultimate figure has allows for this pose.

Leaders are so expensive now, that they've taken commander's spot as the once every couple months special treat buy. that being said, if they are less than great, they go back. I just can't afford to accepts any less. That being said too lol, This guy is my Number 1 for 2023, unless something very unexpected pops up. I've got a feel for what's coming out through 24, and I don't think he'll lose his 1 status untul that concept megs next year. He's by far the most poseable figure my chug ass has, and the one I can't put down, having brought in 9 others SINCE him. Yup, if you on the fence, from a broke ass, DO IT!!!

I don't have him yet, but this is how I would've made him a voyager. Give Battletrap the chain, and either give Bumblebee Prime's axe for fun, or just give it to prime. Now Primal just has his swords and the Key. I also would've simplified his leg transformation by hiding the feet better but w/ the base of the one we got. Voyager!

I almost bought this earlier but they had SS Snarl and I grabbed it so I can get near the end of completing the SS Dinobot team with the eagerly awaited SS Swoop so I’m happy I chose Snarl to display with Grimlock, Slag, Sludge but man Optimus Primal would have been a instant buy if I didn’t see Snarl. They only had 1 of each. However I would have given up either and have to wait for a chance to find them or get them online if they had the BB concept Megatron oh I want that figure yessssss

He is not my favorite Primal, he's my favorite FIGURE for now, and probably like I said, til that megs drops. I don't really do live action either. I've got maybe 20/25 live aciton figures, so that's not even 10% of my collection, BUT this dude is glorious. I also orient the arms completly reversed in monkey mode, from TTG here. So that the furry big forearms are out front. If you want realism you should also, bend the elbow a little towrds the main body. Like the elbows pushed out in front a little. Watch a gorilla on TNC or something. As he walks off all proudly after throwing poo on a kid behind a gate, his arms are more pushed forward, instead of in towards the body. It looks so good emulating that.

I love the kingdom primal because it just looks so show accurate in bot mode. Monkey mode is meh. So I was hesitent at first to get the ss one because kingdom primal was my definitive primal to display and I like keeping one version of a character on the shelf. But then I bought it just for the hell of it and wow I dodged a bullet with this one because I love it! I almost missed out on such a great figure and even though I still love the kingdom mold this one is a vast improvement for me.

I did intend to get this figure, but as soon as I knew I had Prime on the way that was the moment I ordered it. Definitely a top figure contender, I’m no Beast Wars fan but ROTB got me sold, though I’m not getting Beasts outside of these movies. Agree on the tight connection on the transwarp key, I’m scared to break it too Also with the arms in ape mode, they are also mislabelled (right arm marked as L2)
