Optimus Primal (Gorilla)
Optimus Primal (Gorilla) Toy
Allegiance: Maximal
Size: Ultra
Difficulty of Transformation: Easy
Color Scheme: Grey, white, red, and black, with a bit of blue
Rating: 7.7

    Beast mode is a gorilla. There are no obvious hints he’s a robot except for the upper back of his legs and his arm pits. His face is kind of big proportionally, though, and his back legs are oddly jointed. There is decent articulation in this mode, as all his appendages can move in at least two places.
    Robot mode is very nice. He doesn’t have his “prime jets” as in the TV show. But, he does have rocket launchers, two of them on his shoulders, and two of them in a pop-out compartment on his left arm. He has two samurai swords, which he can hold in either hand. He also has a skull club, although it looks too nasty for a Maximal. He can thump his arms against his chest by pressing a button on his back. He also has a mutant face, which also looks too nasty for a Maximal.
    A recommended buy. A fair beast mode, and a great robot mode packed to the brim with weapons.
