Can someone help me. I just started collecting transformers when the movie came out and need to know who this is.

I bought him off my friend for 3 bucks.

Looks complete, so I'd say yes, depends on if you like the figure or not.

There is a great gallery on here of him in case you need help transforming him or just want to see some poses.

well the green thing is lost. this is just a pic I found on the internet.

worth every buck you paid if it is in good condish, though as a Primal/BW fan, this is the worst primal to come out, no offense bro. :grin:

For three bucks that's not bad. I think I paid five for the one I bought, and I just turned around and cut off the monkey head. His little monkey brain is sitting on a shelf somewhere...

Even with the green "blades" missing it most certainly is worth $3, as long as some paint is still applied, and the joints don't feel like you're moving them on ice.

He is not the best Prime/Primal figure ever made, but still worth only $3

Definitely worth $3. That was one of my favorites before my mom gave away my collection.

Haha, I can see how someone wouldn't recognize him as primal.

I am also missing the green thing, and the robot head "brain cap" is missing in mine. It popped off in my mom's car.

I purchased him when he first came out, too bad I missed out on the other more show-accurate BM Primal toys.

I'm not sure whether I'm impressed or disappointed that Hasbro hasn't repainted this and put it out as Apeface or something. Good toy, even if it isn't Primal.

Well I had sort of grown out of transformers. Funny how I've started buying them again.

With a little difficulty the first time sadly. You need to get used to it, I'd help but I lost my instructions.

I'm still surprised at just how many people, fail to use Seibs awesome galleries.

Yeah the blue monkey transforms:

And he transforms from Monkey:

To Robot

and back.

Not one of the better Primals to grace the ranks. But a Primal nontheless.
