As I thought about it, Gary's Primal does sound younger than Cullen's Prime. Idk if that dynamic may be why they didnt bring him back and instead went for someone who sounds more mature and older.

Garry Chalk was the first Optimus I was introduced to thanks to Cybertron, so I hold both him and David Kaye in high regard because of that. With that said, as sad as it is for him not to voice Primal in ROTB, I think that Primal's maximal design is lowkey a brilliant reimagining of the character and the robot form isn't to bad either.

YOU'VE GOT GARRY CHALK FOR THIS?! THAT IS JUST PRIME (& AWESOME!)
Bruh, they should've gotten Garry for Primal at least. Peter and Garry together, both Optimus on screen would've been awesome.
I think Primal's robot mode in ROTB is S-Tier. Not only is the design overall absolutely badass, but it makes sense why the coloration is so dull. From what I know, in this movie, the maximal came from the future and have been stranded on Earth for many long years, so it makes sense their coloration would become duller over time. Besides, looking at the design, it would just be really jarring if they gave him reds and blues.

The fact Comodian got Garry chalk to come on down to have little chat really speaks volumes, Hasbro really fumbled on one of the biggest crossovers we could've had.
I like Gary’s take of a prime like he can have a laugh and still be leader and bit of a father figure his voice is as memorable as Peter Cullens
It's kind of weird that I grew up with G1, but it was Beast wars where I found "My" Optimus. I just dig the character, and Garry's voice fits him so well.
Jobby with David Kaye and now Cam with Garry Chalk. Now that's just Prime.
Hey, Garry Chalk! Thanks for last year's interview for my school project

No way! You got Garry Chalk to be in this video! Dude, your outstanding! This is why you are one of the best Transformer KZreadrs out there! Keep up the good work my friend!
Petition to have a crossover between comodin and jobby where we can have David and Gary.
My only issues with ROTB is the lack of color and the lack of his iconic face. He gets the full mask, which washes him out next to Prime. When the control art came out, I will say it made him look so much better with the black contrasted with the gold/bronze instead of the brown in the trailer
It’s really heartwarming to see the love and appreciation for Garry in these comments. Great video, Cam! I’m not embarrassed to say that I have most of those figures, including the Prime1 Studio statue. I even recently acquired the Cutie1 figure. ‘Cause I gotta have all the Beast Wars Primal things. Don’t judge me! Haha Him and Rattrap are my favorite characters from BW. Have you seen our Primal Parodies videos we make? I’ve been trying to get them more noticed, but it’s been slow-going. Like my artwork being noticed in the TFs community, but I mostly focus on Beast Wars. Thanks for having Garry involved in your video! He really does love the character.

I've never seen him in person voicing primal..... Untill now! And with this... My life is complete!
Jobby got David Kaye, and Cam got Garry Chalk.... *Looks like a line had been drawn.*

That third party Optimus primal to me looks like if primal was an Autobot instead of a maximal. Like he’s got the boxy shape of the Autobots and Decepticons who had beast modes.
Finally someone who likes Beast Machines design! I wish it had "Ears" and his faceplate but always open. I also hope that this and other BM designs will get some Legacy stuff in future. I also wonder what Garry think about this design🤔
3:06 My personal favorite Primal design. It's simply perfect; heroic, but the black gives just the right degree of edge to let you know this isn't someone you want to mess with. 5:35 I really like the transmetals. The mechanized beast modes with robot modes that look partly organic really sells that the transmetal isn't just a simple upgrade, but a mutation and the vehicle modes have the kind of cheesiness that could only have worked in the 90s. My only major complaint is that Optimus in any incarnation without the face guard just doesn't look right. It's like Batman without the ears. Transmetal Primal would be my favorite if he had the face guard and had a paintjob more like his first form. 6:22 I really don't like the paintjob, it looks very preschool. Primal Prime and Throne of the Primes are definite improvements there, but the bulkiness of that form makes him look more like an enforcer or brute than a commander. 8:53 I may be in the minority, but I actually like how alien and comic book-like this form looks. I'd like it a lot more if it had a more Optimus-like head and face. 19:44 It's basically Season One Primal, but all-Cybertronian. It would tie with "Season One" as my favorite if the gorilla head had a slightly more natural shape.
First Jobby with David Kaye, now him with Garry Chalk?! Ps: The Furai-action Optimus Primal is actually an official figure licensed by Hasbro.
Optimus Primal: change da world, my final message, goodbye
I agree, BW was revolutionary at that time, so fresh and with great characters
Well this was just prime. Considering Gary was my first optimus prime
ROTB Primal just looks so badass! I love that they gave him the mouth shield
I like how everyone's like oh my primus you got garry chalk to feature here wow that's amazing (which it is) and I can understand with some of these VAs that its hard to get hold of them since they're busy, but I have to say it's so cool when you have these super talented people that are absolutely chill with responding to fans or featuring occasionally on a smaller channel. It's nice when you can have these regular interactions with people you admire ^^ Also hearing Chalk saying maximals maximise was peak awesomeness!~
Beats machines music is so good, and it's very early 2000s which is awesome if you ask me
That awesome you able to get legendary Garry Chalk to be in this video.
Garry Chalk deserves another chance to voice Optimus. He was my Optimus growing up. I didn't even know who Peter Cullen was when the 2007 movie came out.
Agreed, movie Primals robot design is badass but they made him look more like Batman than Optimus Primal. Especially in that pose.
these some amazing designs, but my heart will always belong to the OG Beast Wars designs. its also awesome that you got Gary Chalk to join you. i must say i am a little bummed he wont reprise his role in the new movie. its been my dream to have both legendary VAs to be in the same project. maybe one day....
Two days ago, The Predator was on TV at channel 45.2, I noticed Garry Chalk (the dude who voiced Optimus Primal and Dr. Robotnik from Sonic Underground) made a cameo in the movie.
This actually kicks so much ass. Comodin Cam I love watching you win at life as a transformers fan, it's inspiring!
Im shocked, no no no, I’m surprised, no no no, I’m flabbergasted, no no no, I’m shockingly surprisingly flabbergasted that Gary chalk appeared in this video.
If you have mr chalk here would you have him meet Peter Cullen?
Ryan's fan art design is unsettling. If you look closer, it's almost completely skeleton, meat and skin with fur. And the worst part is that it all looks ripped, with exposed meat, so uncanny.
Wooo! Great video! And I love the names for the categories

I used to watch Beast wars back when it was on Hasbro's MONKEY TV, where I was first introduced to the UNICRON TRILOGY Such a wave of nostalgia, I hold beast wars close to my heart. Sure it is really weird, but that is what I love about it. :D
When a KZreadr has better casting than the movie.
First JohnnyFlash with Garry Chalk, then JobbyTheHong with David Kaye, and now Comodin Cam with Garry Chalk! I see why the Beast Era is so popular with people who grew up watching it, unlike me, who grew up with the 2001 RID show, the films, and the Animated pilot movie.

In the case of Rise of the Beasts Optimus Primal, I can kinda get behind the lack of color. It gives him a more grizzled, old look, which is fitting considering as far as I know, the Maximals have been on planet earth for millions of years, living in secret. His chest plate in robot mode is all rusted and jagged from centuries of weathering, so in this case, it kind of fits.
Optimal Optimus From Earth Wars was just the Power of the primes toy
It's was awesome to see Gary Chalk
Yeah MAXIMALS!!! Finaly!!!
I feel like it would’ve been funnier to have David Kaye, just complaining about every Optimus. Don’t get me wrong, Mr. Chalk, you gave us a lovely performance, but the humor here can’t be understated. Also, Legends Convobat actually does a have a very leader-ish quality to him, IMO!
Yo, it's AWESOME that you got Garry Chalk on board for this video! That's just... well... PRIME! Also, HUGE congrats to you for reaching 100K subscribers! That's awesome!!!!!
They should of let Garry Chalk voice Optimus Primal in ROTB! Would of been great having the two VA's of Optimus Prime from 2 different generations in the up & coming movie. Garry Chalk is the Optimus Prime/Primal of my generation.
I'm so Jelly! But so stoked that you got Mr.Chalk to be in your video❤
Love this, also how did you get garry chalk when jobby couldn't
Now i wonder who will be the next character, that is definitely not from Beast Wars, yesssss...
There are some very specific things that makes ROTB Primal a mediocre design. Firstly, Like you said, he has no color. And the use of color in the original design was VERY intentional cuz here's the thing, the robot and beast modes are functionally very similar. They are both humanoid bipeds, mainly differing in their general proportions. And that makes it harder to differentiate the beast mode from the robot mode than it would be for a vehicle mode. The way the OG design approached this challenge was color. When any of the characters transform, they open up, their organic bits split apart revealing robotic detail underneath, which is usually a color that contrasts with their beast hide. So when primal transforms, lots of Blues, reds and whites are revealed. This makes it truly feel as if he did not just change shape, he became something different. So ROTB fails in this by not creating any sort of disconnect between modes. No new colors are revealed, and the gorilla is already mechanical so no new mechanics are revealed. it's just a different shape. Second, he simply does not stand out., All the maximals except maybe airrazor have pretty much the same silhouette and morphology, with their only difference being their build. This could easily have been mitigated by giving him his classic raised shoulderpads, denoting his authority as well as making him stand out more. this, combined with how all the maximals in this movie purely consist of greys and browns, makes them feel completely uniform and homogenous. And Making his head finds almost unnoticable also makes him stand out less as rhinox and cheetor also have pretty smooth round featureless heads.
I like to imagine a modern enemy hero relationship of Optimus primal and Megatron rex as like animated prime and megatron
This is just as epic as Jobby's video with David Kaye
The fact that he got the OG voice actor for primal to do this is awesome
great job about Optimus Primal Ranking Every Design from Transformers
It rather bothers me that they didn't get Gary Chalk to be Primal in the new film. I don't even hear Ron Pearlman in the new film. He just sounds like random pitch shifted male. Gary has such a specific sound that is for me, irreplaceable, much like Peter Cullen or Frank Welker. Remember when they replaced Frank Welker with Hugo Weaving and then pitched his voice down so much that it didn't even sound like Hugo Weaving anymore? Then they got Frank Welker back to do Galvatron and everyone was like "Oh! I guess Frank Welker DOES sound great in a live action Transformers film" so they brought him back to be Megatron in the next film...I get the idea that the casting department at Paramount are kinda dumb.
Fantastic opening clip!!! HAD to say it
I'll never understand why they never brought Garry Chalk back for the newer shows or for that matter, the rise of the beasts movie coming up
Great video I'd love to see a ranking on cheator or Scourge in the future
