Optimus Prime

Optimus Prime

Optimus Prime is the leader of the Autobots. He comes in either a windowed box (like that above), or in a non-windowed box.

Optimus Prime transforms from fire truck to robot, and the unused pieces of the fire truck transform to a base mode. Optimus Prime has built in sounds and lights that require 2 AAA batteries.

The front half of the fire truck turns into Optimus Prime. In this mode, Optimus Prime has metallic paint on his chest/face, and is very articulate.

The big Optimus Prime is the result of using the rest of the pieces to the fire truck and snapping them onto Optimus Prime. The ladder can form a rocket launcher that goes on his right shoulder, and plastic missiles can be fired from here. For such a big toy, Optimus Prime has LOTS of articulation.

This toy is known as Super Fire Convoy in the Japanese toyline Car Robots. (Pictures shown are from the Japanese Super Fire Convoy, but the toy is the same.)
