Sentinel Maximus is a character from the comic series Transformers: Universe. He is a remold of the toy previously used for Transformers: Armada Overload and Transformers: Energon Ultra Magnus.
Due to production delays, Sentinel Maximus ended up with two different bios. One features him as the combined form of Wrecker leaders Primal Prime and Apelinq, created in a desperate attempt to stop the evil Cryotek. The other describes him as the guardian of Cybertron, created by Primus .
Tech Spec: One of the Heralds created by Primus when it first withdrew its consciousness to the core of Cybertron, Sentinel Maximus has emerged from the shadows of time to serve as a guardian over Cybertron during its darkest hour. With direct access via interdimensional datalink to the nearly limitless knowledge of Vector Sigma, he is a master battlefield tactician and an ideal leader. His perfect syngergy with his Mini-Con Ape-Linq is driven by a totally unified consciousness; the two 'bots act as one in all things. The vast processing power at his disposal allows him to download holographic items into reality, and he power upgrade granted him by Primus prior to his ancient battle with a diabolical and long forgotten entity from the southern polar regions of Cybertron make him a nearly unstoppable force on the battlefield.
[edit] IDW Comics
Sentinel Maximus appeared as one of the major character in the Transformers: Cybertron comic produced by the Transformers Collectors Club by IDW.
When the Heralds of Unicron Ramjet and Nemesis Prime escaped from their dimension with the intent of resurrecting their master Unicron by draining Primus' energy with the Dead Matrix, Alpha Trion and Vector Prime were able to use the dimensional instabilities caused by the black hole created by Unicron's death to find an ally - Sentinel Maximus. However, having barely arrived in their dimension, they were attacked by Ramjet and Nemesis Prime. Although Sentinel Maximus and Vector Prime drove them off, Alpha Trion and Vector Sigma were damaged.
Although Trion was placed out of harm's way, they soon faced a new threat - the mindless Dark Scorponok who was lured into finishing off Alpha Trion. Valiantly holding off the giant Decepticon, Maximus was badly wounded by Scorponok's venom before the chamber's autoguns blasted the mad Decepticon. Barely recovering in time to face Nemesis Prime and Ramjet, the weakened Maximus let Nemesis Prime past him into Primus' Spark core. Unexpected help arrived, however, in the form of Omega Prime, who then split into Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus and soundly defeated the mad Herald. With Nemesis Prime forcibly put into stasis and Ramjet defeated by Vector Prime (who is then transported to Earth), Maximus assumes command and ordered that the Dead Matrix be locked away - unaware that he was being observed by Soundwave...
