Title:
Primal Prime
Description:
Primal Prime (Super Class, 2000)
Accessories: Gun, 4 missiles
Primal Prime, a red and blue retool of Optimal Optimus, was available in limited quantities of 10,000. Like Optimal Optimus, Primal Prime featured electronics and four transformations—robot, ape, jet, and armored transport. It came with four missiles, two of which stored on its legs. Its forearms featured blast-away armor plates that could also be pegged to its upper arms. The red and blue colors are designed to make him look more like Optimus Prime.
The mold previously fired its nipple cannons and lit up lights in its head simultaneously. Primal Prime was retooled to have separate triggers for the lights and missiles, so as to avoid kids (or adults) shooting themselves in the face. There are other minor molding differences, such as explanatory arrows on the inside of his shoulders (indicating which holes are peg-holes instead of screw-holes).
In November 2000, this toy was released without changes (save some stickers slapped on the box) as a Toys"R"Us exclusive in Japan, making him the only Beast Machines-related product the country received until 2004’s Beast Wars Returns.
