First Look at Onyx Prime and Alchemist Prime Toys Box Art from Transformers Age of the Primes

Posted by william-james88 Feb 14, 2025 at 1:25pm CST 85,805 views
This was unexpected, while Megacon gave us a great first look at the upcoming Age of the Primes (AOTP) Heatwave and Skybyte (preorder links below), we now have a look at Alchemist Prime and Onyx Prime's box art. Onyx Prime is done in fiery orange with a winged robot mode that does indeed have four Legs. Alchemist is not as clear to see but he does have a mustache. There is also the box art for upcoming studio series figures like TF One Deluxe Starscream and Elita 1 along with WFC Voyager Thundercracker and the repacks of 86 Jazz and Grimlock.

More of the Primes are present but obscured, though we do see Vector Prime who is indeed the same mold as the Legacy release. These come from a shop in Singapore called The Falcon's Hangar.

I’m thinking Onyx will be a pegasus, kinda like a Zoid I used to own as a kid

It's likely the centaur legs aren't part of the bot alt mode, it'd be weird if only the top half transformed. There's got to be more to it than that. Beast mode for sure, maybe a bird, or maybe a griffon, that would explain his face having both teeth and a beak.

I wonder if we will get a variant of Onyx that comes with a Shockwave head.

Onyx Prime might be the runner up to The Fallen as far as quality figures go. With Solus Prime being the best Deluxe so far (Alchemist designs look alright).

Liege Maximo might have potential but I don't think he's coming out until next year.

Very excited for AOTP. I've always wanted to get a 12 Primes set (I'm fine NOT having the 13th because... lore. So I'm on the fence for Star Convoy) after completing my G1 collection and then I'm "done." It's like Hasbro was reading my mind.

I'm also very happy the ones with proper render/figure reveals & product packaging art (Onyx & Micronus) looks overall. Prima & Megatronus are kind of average (Prima's color doesn't pop, Megatronus's short legs doesn't make him look epically menacing enough), but still look pretty fun. But Solus I'm pretty sure will be hands-down the best Deluxe fembot for awhile. Hope the rest of the Primes will be just as good as her.

This feels pretty likely, given that it would be a very easy repackage. I could see this being in a comic-edition multi-pack or something.

Via TFW2005 (Post 1 | Post 2), we have a bunch of reveals from the Hasbro booth at ToyFair 2025!

The new toys shown off include AOTP Alchemist Prime and Onyx Prime of the Thirteen - Alchemist transforms into an off-road vehicle while Onyx is shown as a triple-changer with robot, beast and centaur modes.

We also got good looks at a number of other toys from the AOTP line, including the Combaticon Vortex, Decepticon Crasher, red Excellion, Cybertron Sideways and the Carnivac / Fisitron two-pack.

The Studio Series line revealed the new Perceptor with Ramhorn and Ratbat, along with the Seeker (Dirge/conehead) and Soldier (Runamuck/Runabout) Decepticon generics from TF:Devastation.

The Hearts of Steel lineup got another showing with Megatron / Bumblebee alongside the already available Optimus / Starscream.

Finally, there was also the reveal of toys for the Cyberworld line, including Scorponok, Grimlock, Bumblebee, Galvatron and others.

What is with army building the Conehead Seeker? It looks cool enough, I guess, but I'd rather get Sunstorm.

Excellion is a must for me. As is ... *sigh* Ramhorn. It'd have been nice to get him in literally any other way than another box set with a couple of figures I already own.

Fistitron is pretty cool. It's a maybe.

Cyberworld Galvatron is a must buy for my Galvatron collection. Even if he kinda ... sucks ...

I'm excited to see the How Wheels transformers too. Those guys actually look really neat. Especially Twin Mill!

D'oh, I forgot the Hot Wheels! Have seen them floating around on socials but they weren't on the posts linked above.

Onyx Prime looks good, I love the robot mode. The beast/dragon/griffin? alt mode also looks pretty awesome minus the robot hands as front paws? Claws? Feet? The centaur mode looks a little messy but I think that's more on how he was posed, at least for the legs. The shoulders look weird in that mode but hopefully there's a configuration to make it look better, love the head sculpt! And the staff being a bow and arrow in centaur mode, cool stuff

Alchemist Prime also looks beefy and cool, I like the alt mode too

Vortex looks really good and chonky I love it. Helicopter mode looks cool and robot mode is awesome, can't wait to see the others

Ironfist looks good, I like the alt mode. I wish the pictures got a better angle of him and Carnivac but im definitely picking them up

Sideways is cool, not attached enough to character to pick it up but looks like a pretty cool figure

I really like that ramhorn. Looks so cool. But idk if cool enough to justify double dipping on ratbat and perceptor

I'm definitely in for the Target SS86 3-pk. It almost looks like Perceptor got a new facesculpt.
Ratbat looks solid, and even Ramhorn looks alright.

Vortex looks incredible, and as much as I wanted to like UW Bruticus, it just wasn't a great combiner. Even with a couple upgrade kits it didn't quite deliver. Now there's for sure something to look forward to next year.

Onyx has my attention... Is he a 4th quarter release? If so, he'll be very tempting. But any sooner than that and there are other figures that will have my focus (and money).

Beyond that, looks like I'm passing on a lot.

Comment by -Kanrabat- Mar 1, 2025
The combaticons looks nice and I will get them, despite having an upgraded UW Bruticus. The Carnivac pack interest me a lot because I have the G1 original.

Alchemist Prime is the first one of the Primes that I really, really want. It's the mustache.

I don't need another Perceptor, but I need the casettes...

Also, it seems that Ground Soldier is a repaint/retool from Runabout/Runamock. That set is an easy skip.

It looks like they're dropping the SS86 subline and going with the MTMTE tag as a "New" subline. Everything looks good but I don't want to get overly excited for releases months away.

Onyx Prime looks fantastic. They outdid themselves. Instant pre orde.
the devastation 2-pack also great, can’t have enough seekers.
Excellion, somehow you will be mine.
And my boy, Noisemaze also a fabulous update.

Comment by Nemesis Primal Mar 2, 2025
Vortex would be perfect if he wasn't in his boring show colors, but as-is he still looks really good, and I'll probably have to grab him anyway since I can't bank on a toy colors version actually happening and Bruticus is easily my favorite Combiner. As much as I still don't really like the principle of the frame-combiner-system or the heavy show colors leaning, that Bruticus box art does look absolutely killer, and I love that we've continued the now-tradition of Blast Off giving him built-in flamethrower capabilities.

Sideways Noisemaze and Onyx look perfect, no notes. I've definitely come around to these Onyx colors as opposed to the blue I was expecting now that we're seeing the actual figure, and I'm real happy Noisemaze is seemingly another completely new mold out of nowhere, it was basically the only way to do him justice. Zero clue what Onyx's crazy winged six-legged hooved gargoyle-thing mode is supposed to actually be, so for now I will call him a Honse.

Already have Crasher, hope the repack helps those who don't.

Excellion's colors don't actually look as good to me as I expected on this mold? I can't place why, but I think I'll be skipping him.

Ironfist Fisitron looks really good, love his IDW colors and I'm very curious to see if his whole Lightformer cannon can detach from his back or if it's just the main barrel, although I am surprised to see they used the Earth mode tooling as his base and not the Siege one. Carnivac, on the other hand....sure is also included, wish he got as much IDW sauce in his design as his versus partner.

Still not 100% sold on Alchemist being green, but I like what I see otherwise, he can come hang out.

Really loving the looks of Vortex, they did so many crazy details, they almost look out of place compared to the CW mold. Really getting me excited for the rest.

Interesting that they did toon shaded windows on the two Devastation guys, but not on the Deluxe Optimus Prime.

Didn't feel like starting a new topic, but the first look at the SDCC Void Rivals set is up featuring Siege Jetfire.

Carnivac and Onyx Prime look great. And going by Bruticus' art, he'll be a solid figure too.
