Leader of the Maximals during the Beast Wars and ancestor of Optimus Prime. He's a gorilla who can fly and that's perfectly prime with him.
Before the Beast Wars he's only the captain of one exploratory mission but during the Beast Wars he soon lives up to being a Prime. He shows himself to be a practical and fair leader of the Maximals as well as a great warrior on the battlefield. Named after Optimus Prime he acts very similar to him and even saved both Earth and Cybertron, something his predecessor didn't do.
