    That is awesome! :thumb  It really fits Primal's character. Though I'd like to see him without the mask.

    I always kinda DID like Primal... and now that you've done it this way, the FoC mold DOES look kinda like Primal does in some respects...

    I love this so much... Wish it was a legit run fig, but if it even had a chance it'd be a botcon fig... which helps, but not much. Amazing Job Cheets!

    wow, 1,000 views and 50 comments in one day, working on a record here? Must be a lot of Beast Wars fans out there. Looks OK to me. A repaint I would pass on though if in stores. Great job on the details, but not a fan of the series myself.

    FANTASTIC !! I think this is the most unique repaint of this mold. I even like this better than Primal from Botcon Down of Future's Past set

    MM gun metal is a good color. I have a jar of the stuff myself.

    Any chance of making a Cheetor out of FOC Jazz?

    It amazes me how many characters this mould works for, and yet none are Optimus Prime himself. Just genius, and the swords and blasters are perfect.

    Though I would like to point out the eyes should technically be red. BW Optimus is a badass with red eyes who's not afraid to go against the crowd.

    Damn now I want this mold. I've passed it by so many times thinking it was too small and just not as good as WFC OP, but now I fell like you given me a reason to get on it. Damn you! Great work btw, as always. It's very clean and really works for the character.

    I'll probably do what I normally do and get Ultra Magnus too and swap parts to use the least amount of paint for less rubbing and chipping issues.
