'''Leo Prime''', also known as '''Lio Convoy''', is a heroic robot from the [[Transformers]] series, so-called because he is a Prime whose usual alternate form is that of a lion.

==History==
===Generation 1===
====Beast Wars II====
Leo Prime was introduced in this series as the leader of a crew of Maximals who oppose the [[Predacons]] led by [[Galvatron (Beast Wars)|Galvatron]].

====Beast Wars Neo====
Leo Prime and his crew later returned to aid [[Big Convoy]]'s crew in battling the return of [[Unicron]].

====Fun Publications====
A version of Leo Prime later appeared as part of an alliance of Primes known as the [[Convoy (Transformers)|Convoy]] that also included [[Optimus Prime (TransTech)|TransTech Optimus Prime]], [[Sentinel Maximus]], [[Optimus Prime (Generation 1)|Combat Hero Optimus Prime]], [[Optimus Prime (Unicron Trilogy)|Jungle Planet Optimus Prime]], and [[Optimus Prime (Robots in Disguise)|Robots in Disguise Optimus Prime]].

In the [[BotCon]] 2016 live script reading, Lio Convoy was part of a council of Cybertronian leaders-also including [[Big Convoy]] and [[Legend Convoy]]-who met to address the growing threat of [[Megatron (Beast Wars)|Megatron]]. Lio Convoy's voice was here provided by [[David Kaye]].

====IDW Publishing====
[[image:dawnofthepredacus-primalcouncil.jpg|left|thumb|240px|The Autobot Primal Council in ''Transformers: Dawn of the Predacus'']]
Lio Convoy appeared the [[IDW Publishing]] [[BotCon]] 2016 story ''[[Transformers: Dawn of the Predacus]]''. In this story Lio Convoy served as a member of the [[Primal Council]] after the death of Optimus Prime. When Ironhide suggested the Decepticons may not back down after the death of Galvatron, Lio Convoy suggested they do what they always do. Lio Convoy was then sent to the eastern Iacon front.<REF>{{Cite comic | writer = [[John-Paul Bove]] | artist = [[Corin Howell]] | title = Transformers: Dawn of the Predacus | date = March 2016 | publisher = IDW Publishing | location = | url=}}</REF>

Lio Convoy is the leader of the Pack, a Maximal black-ops unit that keeps tabs on potential Predacon threats to the Pax Cybertronia, the peace between the Maximals and Predacons. This led him to have [[Razorbeast]] infiltrate [[Magmatron]]'s force of Predacons, who traveled to prehistoric Earth to turn Maximal protoforms previously carried by [[Optimus Primal]]'s ship into Predacons. The Pack later received a transmission from Razorbeast informing them of trouble on Earth, and traveled their to aid Razorbeast's beleaguered forces. This led them into an unlikely alliance with [[Ravage]] and Magmatron's other Predacons against the evil [[Shokaract]], who was an unwitting pawn in a scheme to revive [[Unicron]]. The allies-joined by Big Convoy's team of Maximals-were able to triumph over Shokaract, only for [[Megatron (Beast Wars)|Megatron]] to arrive and subsequently take over the planet as seen in ''[[Beast Machines]].''

===Transformers: Timelines===
An alternate Lio Convoy appears in ''[[Beast Wars: Uprising]]'', initially as a servant of the decrepit Autobots and Decepticons but eventually becoming the leader of the joint Maximal-Predacon resistance.
