TRANSFORMERS Authentics Optimus Prime

Product Information

Transformers Authentics figures bring the exciting conversion play you can come to expect from a Transformers figure. Transformers Authentics figures are a great way to start any Transformers collection. Part of the Legend Commander Collection sold at Transformers Expo, "Convoy (Jodai)"— jodai (初代) meaning "first generation"—is a redeco of Robotmasters G1 Convoy. While most of the paint masks are identical to the original mold, other changes include replacing the translucent parts into clear blue plastic, and the panel-lining on the grill is stripped off. Unlike the first toy, he does not include a pair of swappable 3mm fists, his missile launcher, or his Calamity Defenser weapon.

The set also comes with Megatron with his launcher, Decepticon Brawl, Bumblebee, and a cardboard token representing the Matrix. This toy is so adorable and the quality of plastic is so hard that if the child by mistake falls. It won't be broken down. BUILD YOUR COLLECTION: Look for other Transformers Authentics figures to add to your collection (each sold separately, subject to availability). Stage epic battles between the Autobots and Decepticons inspired by the Transformers universe! Released in Japan by Sentinel as part of the 30th anniversary, Optimus Prime Pen is a well-articulated robot that folds into the shape of a rather chunky, but functional ballpoint pen. The tip of the pen is formed from his ion blaster, with the barrel acting as a cap.

A supposed factory error even caused this version (minus display stand) to be included in the larger Optimus Prime kit (see below). This problem has (presumably) been fixed, but it was awesome while it lasted.

This version of the mold was planned to be redecoed into Menasor for the Universe line, but the release was canceled. IDW Publishing's original Generation 1 comic line began introducing evergreen character designs in the aftermath of the 2016 Revolution crossover event. The implementation was last-minute enough that at least one cover had to be redrawn by the artist to incorporate Optimus's evergreen design. Designs have been introduced as follows: Accessories: Hi-Q Powermaster unit, 2 Laser Rifles, 2 Twin Particle Beam Cannons, Super Robot head, missile launcher, 2 missiles, Apex Bomber chest/trailer top, 2 legs (left & right), 2 arms (left and right), Armor chest/trailer front, 2 wings (left & right)

Many of the pre-loaded animations assume Optimus is holding his gun in his right hand and/or that he is holding his axe in his left hand. The toy has no sensors to detect whether those accessories are in place, and the app does not consistently label which animations use accessories. It also does not label the many animations that might damage the toy if attempted while accessories are attached, but transforming converting him or punching the ground would be a bad idea. So don't activate any animations while the accessories are attached unless you're sure you know what will happen. BEAST WARS INSPIRED ALT MODE: Convert this Optimus Primal toy, inspired by the noble Maximal leader, from robot to gorilla mode in 9 easy steps Standing only two-and-a-quarter inches tall, Smallest Transforming Transformers Optimus Prime was the smallest fully transforming G1 Optimus toy. He features an accurate transformation sequence based on the original full-sized toy, replacing the detachable hands with actual sculpted fists, and even including a tiny version of his laser rifle. Unsurprisingly, he also has little articulation and is only capable of moving his arms and legs. Since 1984, Generation 1 Optimus Prime has received the largest number of toys for any single Transformers character, a testament to the character's enduring popularity and status as a hero to many fans.

None of the toy's motorized joints are capable of supporting substantial weight without electricity. This means that when powered off, the robot cannot stand upright without external support. If the toy is in robot mode and senses its batteries are getting low, then to prevent a damaging fall, it will automatically shift into a droopy squatting pose that it can safely sustain while powered off. The average operating time from a full battery charge is approximately 40 minutes. The charging port is not accessible while the robot is standing up. Plugging in the charger while the toy is powered on might endanger fragile components. This version of Optimus, part of the Kreon Class of 1984, lays heavy on the toy-based tampographs (though they are completely different from the other iterations), and like the others in the set, has a more animation-model-inspired face deco, what with having a nose and all. The figure was personally designed by comic artist Don Figueroa, who created the original comic design in the first place, and his signature is left on the figure in the most literal way: the word "DON" can be seen sculpted into the barrel of his silver ion blaster. The paint on the handle of his ion blaster scuffs rather easily when placed into his hands. This mold was also redecoed to make Nemesis Prime. He shares parts with Super Bot Megatron and Motorbreath.Optimus Prime is the legendary leader of the Autobots. He is known for his wisdom, courage, and strength on the battlefield. He fights to protect the freedom of all beings in the universe, ensuring his friends and allies are safe from evil Decepticons. Part of the first (and only) wave of larger electronic Hero Mashers Transformers toys, the base Optimus Prime figure in this set is almost identical to the above "Battle Upgrade" toy; this version has a closed right fist that can hold accessories rather than the Battle Upgrade version's finger-pointy one. The right of all sentient beings is... um... what am I promoting now? Wait, a Japanese pop band? Are you kidding me? I need a new agent. The Transform Jr version of Prime was re-released a few years later in a "Hero" set alongside the Jr versions of Chromedome, and Fortress Maximus. This figure was redecoed into INFOBAR Optimus Prime (ANNIN) (below) and slightly retooled with new heads and redecoed into INFOBAR Megatron (BUILDING) and INFOBAR Bumblebee (ICHIMATSU).

A polybag with buildable Optimus Prime with larger hands and legs on a Kreon sized torso, much like the Galvatron in the Factory Battle set. His helmet is completely unpainted. The fourth Transformers Fan Book comes with the "Optimus Prime (Red Clear Version)" toy, redecoed from the Kingdom Core Class mold. with the deco once again based on the Generation 2-inspired colors used for the Chronicle EZ Collection figure. Hasbro released a redecoed version with additional accessories as part of their Generation 2 line in 1993; Accessories: Engine/gun, " Surfblade" surfboard/sword weapon, Marissa Faireborn figurine with stand and 2 pairs of arms and legs

All this for the low, low price of an arm, a leg, and your firstborn son! (Note: Basketball accessory not included.) Sold separately are two alternately colored bases; one in heroic Autobot red and the other in EVIL Decepticon purple. Initially due for release in March 2022, Prime and the bases were eventually released on June 30. This figure, with the included intakes and alternate head in place, also doubles as Starscream from " Megatron's Master Plan, Part 1".
