Start in robot mode. Now that hes in robot mode. Fold up his head.
Flip gun unit so it points down. Flip leg wheels so they are
visable on outside like optimus primes. Depending on you're
prefrences, rotate his waist so that the back of his legs are are
facing the same side as his gorilla chest, or you could have the
gorilla feet face foreward, depending on you're preferances.
Now rotate his arms so that the front of his arms are facing the
same direction as the gorilla chest like you would in gorilla
mode
Fiddle with thumbs so they look right.
Push down the second hinge so it faces foreward.
Position whole gun unit at an angle with back of unit sticking
out a bit. Primal primes chest is the gorilla chest.
You should be able to make the front half of the gun unit spring
back. If it doesnt you did it wrong.
Position cockpit where you like.
Flip out his robot head . Pop his robot head off its joint.
Position robot head near middle of body, facing same direction as
gorilla chest.
The head looks best in middle of body.
If you dont want to pop his head off, or want to retain the light
up eyes keep it on joint and turn his face foreward.
The downside of this is that he looks hunch backed, so its youre
decision.
Split wheel apart.
Pop off both his blast panels.
Now connect 2 opposite blastpanels by their pegs to the pegs on
the missle trigger, now part of his chest.
The blastpanels form his chest plate and cover the gorilla chest.
Take the remaining 2 blast panels with pegs, and peg them on the
shoulders, elbows, legs or any other peg holes. Point his wings
up. Put the remaining 2 launching blast panels back on his arms.
Position arms as desired.
You now have a different mode to display Primal Prime in.
I guess if you want to make it look more like prime
you could cover his mouth with painted clay or something to make
it look like a mouth plate.
