Go Prime

The name or term "Go" refers to more than one character or idea. For a list of other meanings, see Go (disambiguation).

Go Prime is an Autobot Swordbot from the Go! portion of the Aligned continuity family.

Long-lost child of The Fallen and Blackbeard the Pirate.

Go Prime (ゴウプライム Gō Puraimu) is an ancient Swordbot possessing the power of both the Samurai and the Ninja. He is referred to as a "sword master", and it was he who trained both the Swordbot Samurai Team and the Swordbot Shinobi Team. He possesses the ability to manipulate space-time, and is capable of appearing at any time or place. He can even use this power to transport the sparks of other Transformers across interstellar distances. While he can only fight for short periods of time due to overexposure to the Black Legendisc, his combat ability surpasses that of the other Swordbots.

Go Prime is also leader of the Black Order in the Primus Vanguard as Black Go Prime (ブラック聡明 (ゴウ)元師 (プライム), lit. "Wise Origin Master Black"), his Black Legendisc serving as their respective Matrix. His Mini-Con partner is Go.
