Description
Sorry it took me so long, but here's me keeping my word on the Original Primes getting the Animated makeover, starting with this guy.Prima, warrior of light, first Prime and bearer of the Matrix of Leadership and wielder of the Star Saber sword. It is said that the Matrix was the jewel that adorned the hilt of the Star Saber. Being the firstborn of the Original Primes, Prima was the self-appointed leader of the group, and led the charge against Unicron back in ancient times. While he did mean well, he had his flaws as well, such as being a bit overly proud and holding grudges, which is why the Predacons died out in a cataclysm originally in the Aligned continuity. His ultimate fate remains unknown.
His appearance is based on his Aligned version, but he actually first appeared Marvel's G1 comics looking like this: tfwiki.net/mediawiki/images2/1…
Base-wise, I used Ultra Magnus and built up from there. I did have a little trouble since both his Aligned and original looks didn't offer much to go on in terms of what his alt mode might be, so let's just go with a land-based vehicle.
Now I know what a lot of you more well-versed fans may be thinking, "But RexBlazer1, considering the position of Primes and Magnuses in the Animated Universe, it wouldn't make sense for the Original Primes to exist the way they did in that universe." And while that may be true, I'd also like to point out that Derrick J. Wyatt said that there was no Primus in that world either, and I already made an Animated version of Primus just to spite him. So, my story solution is that the Original Primes were significant in the past, but the Magnus title eventually overthrew the Prime one, and things became rearranged. Plus, eventually the people of Cybertron forgot the significance of being a Prime, and the Matrix underwent a change into the Allspark.
How's that for you?

I like how you draw his design along with the tone and color. Prima's face is like real-deadpane-serious! XD
And no, these are all my thoughts and critiques. Keep up the good work, Rex!

I really love the design choices you gave him and you placed the matrix in an interesting place on his sword. I can't wait to see the rest of the Primes.

I really do love how you made your alternate version of Prima using TF Prime design.
Makes me really wish they made the 13 Primes in Animated.

Yeah, well, it kind of feels like Derrick J. Wyatt is one of those people who don’t like Transformers having Lore. And I have yet to discern why.
Regardless, this is an attempt at rectifying that exclusion.
