The smokestacks can be rotated to form some kind of a wrist-mounted water hose, but please don't twist them while they're on the painted forearms. Since the battle damage is also applied on his painted translucent chest, any attempt to remove said paint will result in his design-origin paint details being removed as well. The smokestacks can be popped off for a more show-accurate look. As with Cybertron Mode Optimus, this figure even has enough articulation to hold his long-handled axe two-handed and raise it over his head for a massive chop. His axe (which is the most show-accurate out of all of his toys) stores in his aft section. Unfortunately, he can't skate on them like in the show. Like deluxe Megatron, he features a punching/axe slashing gimmick, where twisting his spring-loaded waist will make it snap back for a "robot punch." There are actually 4 wheels on his legs, so that the tires are always on the outside. He has a distinctively more " Generation 1" look than other Animated Primes, given the addition of smokestacks (a detail absent from the animation model) and a lack of black beneath the silver stripes. He has a battle-damaged deco and comes with a Deluxe-class Cybertron Mode Megatron figure as well as a DVD featuring the first episode of Transformers Animated. The Deluxe-class Earth Mode Optimus Prime has a very similar engineering design to the Deluxe-class Cybertron Mode Optimus Prime figure. Megatron: The Battle Begins (Entertainment Pack, 2008) More information on CYBERTRON Mode Optimus Prime at TFU.info.The figure's superb range of articulation and long axe-handle actually allow Optimus to wield his weapon two-handed. The peg also resembles the rocket thruster on the back of Prime's axe in robot mode. Prime's axe weapon is stored by partially folding the axe at the grey hinge near the handle peg, then placing the handle peg in a hole on the back of the cab (actually his two fists' holes, thus helping them hold it in position) with the blade facing down and a grey peg facing up, acting as a "fifth wheel" trailer hitch, should one find a suitable trailer to attach to it. While the light-piping gimmick is functional, the translucent eyes had a seemingly weak glow, due to the usage of the translucent dark blue plastic. The truck roof can be mounted on his left arm as a shield or spread apart and attached to the axe to become giant energon blades. The hitch assembly becomes his axe, which can be wielded with one blade (for the rocket-boosted look) or have the single blade split to form a double-bladed axe. As a half-track, instead of rear wheels, he has molded, caterpillar-linked tracks with smaller wheels inside for rolling along smooth surfaces. CYBERTRON Mode Optimus Prime (Deluxe, 2008)īased on his pre- Earth Cybertronian look, the first version of Animated Optimus Prime transforms into a half-track Cybertronic truck that resembles the Mitsubishi Fuso Hybrid concept truck with some heavy sci-fi influences.
