Title:
Leo Prime Boxed
Description:
Leo Prime (Voyager Class, 2009)
Series: Beast Wars Series
Accessories: Tail/"Jungle whip,” Key
A retool of Cybertron Leo Breaker with a new head and redecoed in blue and red, Leo Prime transforms into a mechanical lion. Unlike previous releases of this mold, the electronics were removed and the battery cover is riveted closed. Each forelimb/arm has a Cyber-Key-released spring-loaded "snap-out robo-shredder claw,” and his tail becomes a blade-whip for robot mode. As a redeco of Leobreaker, he can still transform into a "Savage Claw Mode”, becoming a massive clawed arm that can attach to the Leader-class Cybertron Optimus Prime and Megatron toys, usable on either side of their torsos. He comes with a silver-bordered blue Jungle Planet-type Cyber Key. His packaging designates him a Maximal despite the Autobot symbol on his chest.
The inexplicable new coloration for the character probably stems from an abortive BotCon attempt to redeco the original Lio Convoy toy in the colors of 2007 movie Optimus Prime, with the latter’s flames conceptually transferred to the lion mane.
The original version of this mold was also used to create Nemesis Breaker and retooled to make BotCon 2009 Razorclaw.
