The unusual nature of the Precursor World can sometimes make chronology tricky. For ease of understanding this article presents events from the reference frame of the Golden Noah itself.

Primus led his Golden Age into battle atop the Golden Noah to seize the empty Silver Matrix of the G1 World from the Powered Masters. Abominus comic 2

Back home on the Blue Planet of his native universe, Primus deflected the blast of Megatron Omega toward his Blue Order with a mighty blast from the Golden Noah. Super Megatron comic 2

After they were felled in the manner he preferred, Primus absorbed the souls of the departed Blue Order into his Ark. God Neptune comic 1

Primus next used the Golden Noah as a projector to observe the three way brawl he had engineered between Megatron Omega, God Neptune, and his Vanguard.God Neptune comic 2

Finally, Primus briefly made use of his Ark in combat with Megatron Omega and Purple Wicked Convoy before annihilating them with a blast from his true Big Bang Cannon. Finale 1

The trailer of Lucky Draw Primus was repurposed as the Golden Noah.

The first Primus figure was a "Lucky Draw figure" in Japan, a vacuum-metallized gold chrome recolored Rodimus Prime that was given away as a contest prize from the collector book, Transformers Generations Deluxe. Supposedly, only 100 pieces of these figures were manufactured. In an instance of Engrish, the official packaging states the figure's name as "Primes".

As a redeco of a Rodimus (no doubt inspired by the resemblance of his astral form to Rodimus in the UK comics), "God Primus" transforms into a futuristic truck resembling nothing so much as a Winnebago. Following the trend started by the original Optimus Prime toy, his trailer splits down the middle to transform into a battle station with an extending double-barrelled cannon. The figure comes with a large, hand-held blaster, and two blast-shield accessories that plug into the sides of his battle station cannon.

Notes

• Both of the Golden Noah's names are references to the Ark, known as Noah (ノア Noa) in Japan, Primus' massive battleship-slash-hand-cannon in the Cybertron/Galaxy Force cartoon.
