Hasbro keeps remaking or re-releasing the Season 1 designs whenever they celebrate Beast Wars, but I wish they would show the Transmetals some more love. Practically all of those designs kicked ass, even if some of the transformations were terrible (Cheetor). Transmetal IIs were kinda bleh, but the first versions were cool. Also, for anyone curious about the bat face Primal has, it's leftover from the original gimmick the line had, where every toy had a "mutant" face that was supposed to make the robot modes look more feral, which the cartoon never bothered to implement so the toys stopped including. It's also a leftover from when Optimus was a bat, rather than a gorilla.
Honestly, I feel yah there, but I also feel like that the toys we got of those forms were the best possible toys, thanks to the show designs being literally the toy designs. There isn't really any way to make them more show-accurate, just 'better toys', and even today, it'd be harder to do the chrome, and the plastic wouldn't feel as good, and there'd be something just janky with them. I'd just like Hasbro to re-release these old toys so i could get the ones I don't have, but want, and don't want to spend 100+ bucks on.
It's too bad you're missing a part of transmetal optimus. He's supposed to have a gun that doubles as a rocket booster on surfer mode. Also you can attach the maces to the back armor like in gorilla mode, raise his arms forward and flip the armor to the front as some kind of cannon mode like the flip out cannons the original leader class primal does.
From what I remember, I think the cannon mode on Transmetal Optimus Primal was the result of the television staff playing with the toy and creating it from the back piece and the maces, rather than it being intentional on the toy's design part. IIRC they had to do that a couple of times in the show to get more gun-like weapons for the characters to use.
@@nilzero5686 Not the cannon mode. There was another handgun he had that in gorilla mode mounted to the back of the surfboard to act as a jet thruster.
I had that first Optimus Primal, but it was a chinese knock-off, lacking many of the details and the weapons. After all these years, it's good to finally see how it was supposed to look.
I don't really understand why they do with Optimus Primal from season 1. What they give him, what they have done with his robot mode? I really hate this design. Even model from season 2 looks even better!
A lot of the original toys came with a mutant face alternate. Some of them were really annoying too, such as Rhinox, who's mutant face couldn't be hidden like Optimus here. The show didn't use the mutant faces of course.
@@Kanyon85 I remember that Waspinator was depicted with the face which would be his original toy's mutant face (the insect-like face), rather than his toy's robot face (the one with a humanoid-like mouth and a visor)
I never grew up with these toys (I was after these toys sold and got introduced to Transformers with the 2007 movie) but seeing the missile firing gimmic on Primal makes me realise how much I kinda miss it.
Video games from now time go ahead please fix this issue please let us know how much of going back did this happen again please let him do John kind of day could zero sense of how much d of course right after work
Optimus Primal is like the Buzz Lightyear of Transformers.
(Because of all the gimmicks, cool accesories, transformation and even the animal design.)
i even though he sounded like buzz!!
Beyond the Stars of Cybertron one can stand one will fall
It's for transmetal Optimus primal
@@alexandersilva3327should I do one for Optimus primal
that transmetal optimus looks so good he can work in a modern beast wars collection with the kingdom figures
Transmetal Optimus deserves more love
Agreed
Really love the color of optimal prime. Very accurate
Can't wait to see robotic monke in live-action movie for the first time
the play value on older figures was great
Man the original Optimus brought back memories I grew up during Beast Wars
The nostalgiaaaa. I had that Optimus Primal
The fact that primal is packed with gimmicks but still looks good and then there's Cyberverse.
I remember having the transmetal and Optimusal Optimus when I was a kid. I wish I knew what happen to them.
Nice Jams! Nice and smooth like Lucky Tapes. This one is The Thrill by Virgin Suicide.
Tnx
That megatron looks beautiful
Really missed the old Beast Wars series. Thanks for making this video of both Optimus Primal in both versions
man i really miss gimmicks
brick back spring louded missile, action feature, automorph, cyber key, and minicons!

That's one sick alternate head and even cooler you have the option to use the standard optimus face or alternate.

Dude I never had it as a kid but he looks like a complicated transformer
nope. both of them are probably one of the easiest to transform.
@@rexemuwu I mean for that time lol. I know these days that is quite simple 🙂
Gosto muito do Child primal

Now that's just Prime.
Awesome
The face on the 1996 Optimus Primal when transformed is scary

Right foot miss XD
i give up.....i cant seems to find that songs title.....
I got you. Virgin suicide - the thrill
Name of the song?
Optimus Primal and Optimus Primal Transmetal. I'd say that's Prime!
It's funny how in the show they had basically the size changed one from another
Second
Takara: how many gimmicks do you want to put in both primals?
The other mfs workers of Takara: yes
Топ епта
hey yo aun tengo el trans-metal primal Optimus.
Bellísimos.
What song is that?
The mother told me 80s
how come you didn't get the Megatron Reissue?
Music artist is noce and name is?
I always thought the swords were there for a double bladed staff to be honest.
想問大大目前是還沒出金屬變體霸王龍系列嗎
然後普通黑猩猩跟金屬變體猩猩是不同玩具公司做的嗎
黑色那隻我細個時候有一隻
Isn't Transmetal Optimus supposed to have those shoulder machine guns? If yes, why didn't you show those off in the video?
They were the maces, his entire back just flipped forward.
@@zullumaster123 Yeah I know. They should have showed the flipping part in the video.
Beast wars was My fiesta tf serie si nostalgic

reminds me of the kong tank mech in hills of steel 2
Most of all.. megatron still looks better and badass in tht T rex...
next is optimal optimus

Where is the gun of transmetal optimus?
The originals
Fun fact on the original toy you can make the arms spin in robot mode if you move two switches up you can also put his Cyber swords in the same hand
20 jam
You have your childhood Optimal Optimus?

Excelent video!!! Horrible music.

And optimal optimus ? 😡🙋👀🐒
Never liked Beast Wars but both toys have a couple of interesting transformation techniques.
Nobody asked if you liked Beast Wars anyway, Vehicle purist.
Megatron looks dead when primal shoot him
That 's just prime
haha munke
Dude, i’m not fan of Beast Wars. You must have to make a video of G1 Masterpiece Trailbreaker.
