Jump back in time to the 90s with Transformers: Rise of the Beasts where the Maximals lord over the place and they are now introduced in their respective character posters -- meet Cheetor, Airazor, Rhinox, and Optimus Primal.

Before it all began, there were Autobots, Decepticons, Predacons, Terrorcons, and the Maximals.

These Maximals in Transformers: Rise of the Beast are composed of Ron Perlman as Optimus Primal, Michelle Yeoh as Airazor, David Sobolov as Rhinox, and Tongayi Chirisa as Cheetor.

In the new character posters of Transformers: Rise of the Beast, these Maximals are being boasted by the film in their respective character posters.

In connection with the big lore of Transformers, the Autobots descended from the Maximals who adopted the appearance of animals.

Optimus Primal leads the Maximals, a robo-gorlla, something like the king of the beasts.

Being the heart of the Maximals, Optimus Primal plays a huge role in the development of Optimus Prime, possibly one of the reasons why he chose Earth.
