    I was thinking of a Primal Prime redeco, but this does look really good, like surprisingly better than the original deco. Kind of makes me wish this was his coloring in the original cartoon.

    But if this is a way for me to get Onyx Prime without buying Predaking (already happy with MMC Rex) then I am sold doubly on this guy!

    It kind of looks like there might be slots all around the throne to put many (all?) of the prime masters (it's also possible the throne has the PM symbols all over it and my eyes aren't good enough to tell the difference)

    I know this isn't very probable, but I think it would be awesome if the red gems on the staff lit up (via LED) when a Prime Master was inserted into the port. The port could have a pressure-sensitive 'pad switch' on the inside, which the inserted Prime Master would depress and activate the lights.

    (If I went really crazy, it would be super-hella-awesome if the staff could recognize each Prime Master and light up in a different color for each Prime. That's probably impossible, though.)

    The staff looks kind of dumb, but I kind of prefer this deco. Of course, not going out of my way for it, but if I get the opportunity, sure.

    Someone going to SDCC ABSOLUTELY MUST ask if they intend to release shells for the remaining Prime Masters!!!!!

    ......Don't want to be relying on exclusives to get all 12...

    cool deco. what seems like a missed opprotunity would be to have instead of the 5 red gems in the head of the staff, 5 scokets for prime masters. ah-la infinity guantlet. just a thought.

    Edit: Well, now that we have more clear pix, I guess that IS what they did. Good move HasTak

    Well this is...different. I kind of want it just for the balls to the wall weirdness.

    Wonder if the crown is removable, or permanently attached to his noggin?

    Optimus Unithroneus?

    I'll get my coat.

    Very nice. I like the concept for monkey king Optimus Primal. The crown and scepter are great accessories and it would be nice if there was a plastic throne, but I've gotta assume its cardboard. If this is a SDCC exclusive, then I'll camp out on HTS to buy for once.
