'''[[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]]''' starred in a film series that made billions of dollars. Woohoo!

==Target==
* '''Optimus Prime''' (Gift Card, [[2007]])

[[File:Target_Optimus_Prime_Gift_Card_2007.jpg|right|thumb|If only [[Target: 2006]] had been set a year later.]]

{{toydesigner|[[Bill Rawley]] (Hasbro)}}

:Available at Target stores, this version of Optimus transforms into a bulky but functional ''gift card''. His head pops out at the push of a button on his chest. This toy was also included in gift packs which were given to every pre-registered attendee of [[BotCon 2007]], which all came preloaded with $5.

:This card was later recolored and released in [[2014]] as an [[Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)|''Age of Extinction'']] version of Optimus.

==Lunchables==
* '''Optimus Prime''' (Lunchables, 2007)

: A simple, fold-out pseudo-figure representing Optimus Prime, that can shift between a flat, red platform with the Autobot insignia molded in, along with the word "Transformers". To become a representation of the character's robot mode, the platform folds open, and two "arms" are subsequently folded down from the top section. The inside of the structure are decorated with stickers with artwork of Optimus Prime's robot mode, along with his name overlayed across his feet.

: A similar mold was used to creature the Lunchables figure for [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]], though with the Decepticon Insignia replacing the Autobot one. The same mold was used for [[Ironhide (Movie)/toys|Ironhide]] and [[Bumblebee (Movie)/merchandise|Bumblebee]], though in different colored plastics.

==Robot Fighters Game==
*'''Optimus Prime vs. Megatron''' (2007)

:Optimus comes packaged along with Megatron in a toy set that allows both figures to be strapped to their respective bases, and subsequently be controlled by two players, making them punch and kick one another via knobs that can be twisted and turned to make the characters perform different moves. Optimus's body is slightly simplified and features articulation at the shoulders and hip joints. A sort of update on the classic "Rock'em Sock'em Robots" game. The figures can also be separated from the base for fun on the go!

==3D Battle-Card Game==
[[File:3DBattleCard OptimusPrime.jpg|thumb|right|upright=1.67]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (3D Battle-Card, 2007)
**''Card number:'' '''9'''

:Optimus Prime is a 54-point "Rare" piece in the [[3D Battle-Card Game]]. Constructed of punch-out pieces from randomly packed plastic cards (two full robots per pack), he can be assembled into his truck mode or into a long-legged robot mode.

:Prime's card construction is the only one in the game that wasn't reused for another character.

*'''Transformers Tournament Set''' (<s>2007</s>)

: An [[Attacktix]] tournament set featuring unique playing pieces of Bumblebee, Optimus Prime, Megatron and Bonecrusher was at one point scheduled for release. Along with a vast amount of other Attacktix product, it ended up being canceled.

==''Transformers'' (2007)==
*'''Transformers Gummy Candy''' (2006)

:Made by the [[Frankford Candy & Chocolate Company]] at the behest of [[Hasbro]]'s Cap Candy Company unit, this large Optimus Prime-shaped [[Gummy Candy|gummy candy]] was available throughout 2006 to 2007. Also available was an [[Megatron (Movie)/toys|Megatron]] and [[Bumblebee (Movie)/merchandise|Bumblebee]]-shaped gummy candies.

{{-}}{{anchor|2007VoiceChanger}}
[[File:MoviePrime Voicechanger helmet.jpg|right|thumb|Hardly ''anyone'' was wearing these damn things at [[BotCon 2007]].]]
*'''Optimus Prime Voice Changer''' (2007)

:A highly CG-accurate sculpt of Optimus Prime's head with a built in voice-changer. It also has several sound effects and quotes from the movie. The voice-changer has three settings, giving more accurate alteration of the user's voice (though this is still debatable; most voice changing technology is pretty crummy, at least in toys). Much like the Ultimate Bumblebee figure, your wallet will hate this toy too. While it only costs 30 bucks, if it's anything like another Hasbro voice changer, it will suck batteries up like they were [[Energon cube|some kind of square candy holder.]]

: There are two versions of the voice changer helmet with two different pre-recorded voices. An earlier release features the voice of [[Ron Hayden]], while the later release features the voice of [[Peter Cullen]]. The latter version has modified packaging under the 'Try Me!' blurb, stating it has 'Real Movie Voice!', though the updated version has also appeared in the original packaging without the 'Real Movie Voice!' notice.

{{-}}{{anchor|2inBeamer}}
*'''2 in 1 Beamer''' (2007)
**''Accessories:''

: This highly accurate head bust of Optimus transforms into a hand-held flashlight by pulling a handle out from under the base, and activating the LED lights at the back of the figure by switching it to "night light" or "beamer" mode and pushing a button at the front of the base. When the handle is slid back up into the figure (so that it may rest normally on its base), it becomes a timed night light. In his standard display or "on" mode, pushing the same button will cause Prime's eyes to light up for a few seconds. He features three different, incomprehensible sound effects that vaguely resemble the electronic squawks and tones that represent [[Cybertronian language#Live-action Transformers movies|Cybertronian]] in the film series. One of these plays every time the button is pushed.

[[File:MoviePrime BattleRigBlaster.jpg|right|upright=1.67|thumb|Nor carrying these!]]
*'''Optimus Prime Battle Rig Blaster''' (2007)
**''Accessories:''

:The Optimus Prime Battle Rig Blaster transforms from a superdeformed amalgamation of his ''Movie'' truck and G1 Optimus Prime's truck (indeed pulling G1 Prime's trailer) to a fully G1 robotic forearm and hand with a built in Nerf style gun. By simply placing your hand inside the back of the trailer (I need an adult!) and pulling back on the front of the truck, the gun transforms and folds back into a weapon. It comes with three [[Nerf]] N-Strike size whistle darts which can be stored inside the trailer. Although not shown in the image, the truck front splits in half in gun-mode, while the grille acts as a sight. On [[multilingual packaging|European packaging]], this toy was marketed as "Optimus Prime Big Rig Blaster".

===''Cyber Stompin' Robots''===
[[File:Movie Cyberstompin Prime toy.jpg|thumb|Rescue Heroes!]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Cyber Stompin' Robot, 2007)

:[[Cyber Stompin' Robots|Cyber Stompin']] Optimus Prime is a non-convertible action figure made for younger children. He has light-up eyes, sounds, a launching fist feature and a "targeting scope" in his back. The scope worked similarly to a ''View Master'', and when you look through the scope, you see an image of Megatron.

:Anyone who wished to find this for the sake of nostalgia, take note that many second hand Cyber Stompin' Primes tend to have his right fist missing. Also, the main electronic-equipped parts, such as the grey/silver torso and the side ankles, are prone to yellowing due to the heat of the electronics.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Robot Replica, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Ion blaster arm
{{toydesigner|[[Bill Rawley]] (Hasbro)}}

: As part of the [[Robot Replicas]] line, this version of Optimus is a non-transforming action figure that utilizes [[Revoltech]]-style jointing. The sculpt hews much closer to the movie CGI model than is possible with the full transforming toys, plus the universal jointing of the line allows for his forearm to be replaced with his hand-cannon... or bits from other Robot Replicas.

: Optimus Prime is one of the first Transformers characters licensed by [[RadioShack]] for their ZipZaps line of pocket-size radio control cars.

===Bakery Crafts===
[[File:BakeryCraftsMovieCakeOptimusPrime.jpg|right|upright=0.85|thumb|Balancing is not his strong suit.]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Cake topper, 2007)

: Yes, a cake topper. From Bakery Crafts (yes, that's their name), this toy was only available by purchasing a ''Transformers''-brand cake (or set of 24 cupcakes) with delicious blue-and-red flame-pattern frosting. The toy transforms from semi cab to robot. He falls over a lot.

===Battling Robots Bubble Bath===
[[File:Optimus prime bubblebath.jpg|right|upright=0.85|thumb|Bathtime fun is the right of all sentient beings.]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (2007)

:Optimus Prime's torso attaches to the bottle of bubble bath. His elbows bend, and his arms have a punching gimmick, to allow him to battle evil even in the shower. Pushing a lever on either side makes the respective fist punch forward. He's removable, though not as easily held without the bottle below his waist.

: Yet another Basic Fun joint, this is a carabiner that shines a Bat-Signal like image of Optimus Prime onto a flat surface. Neat.

:'''Bye-Bye Boo-Boo''' is a therapeutic icey thingy. It helps make your boo-boo's all better so you feel all better! The outside looks like Optimus Prime and feels really soft. It has a {{w|Cold pack|squishy thing}} you can pull out too. But remember, you gotta put it the freezer for two WHOLE hours before you can use it.

:The art of Optimus is from the ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Transformers Animated]]''-style renditions of the live-action movie Optimus Prime and [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]] created for Hasbro licensing.

[[File:MovieMerchandise-BurgerKingOptimus.jpg|right|thumb|upright=1.67| Butt-Scratch Prime! Hey, at least he isn't taking anyones faces...]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (2007)
:The BK tie-in toy of Optimus Prime is essentially two toys in one. The first part of the toy consists of two truck halves, which snap together around a sculpted robot mode Optimus Prime. The truck is squat and primarily blue, with outbursts of chalk-gray paint and red flames. Pulling back and letting go activates the gimmick: Prime "drives" forward and bursts from the truck mode, "transformed" to robot mode. This gimmick has marginal success.

:The "robot mode" of Optimus Prime is where the pullback motor and working wheels of the toys lie. Optimus is sculpted in blue plastic, pre-posed in an odd, crouching position with zero points of articulation. His right knee is bent back, with his right arm touching his knee, while the left side has the leg forward and the left hand holding onto his butt. The toy is as sparsely painted as the truck, with light blue eyes and chest windows, gray hands and feet among other parts, and red forearms. Two panels on his back have red flame tongues on them. He looks like he's scratching his butt.

:This small statuette of Optimus comes with a Blackbird plane representing [[Jetfire (Movie)|Jetfire]]'s [[alternate mode]]. The plane splits in two, and the two parts can be clipped onto Optimus to replicate the climax to ''Revenge of the Fallen''. The front section of the plane has a black Optimus face which sits in front of Optimus's own face.

*'''Flip-Out Optimus Prime''' (2011)
:Part of the 2011 [[Burger King]] ''Dark of the Moon'' promotion, Optimus Prime is a simple figure with [[Super deformed|bobble-head-like]] proportions, but is otherwise reasonably accurate to his on-screen appearance. The entirety of his body flips out of his enormous head when it is opened. A similar gimmick is present in all the toys part of this promotion. Pushing the button on his chest makes him say "Autobots, roll out!" There is an on/off switch on his back.

**''Accessories:'' Movie-style Autobot sigil display stand.

: Partially constructed of die-cast metal, this small three inch figurine of Optimus Prime has a CGI-accurate sculpt compared to the larger toys, owing to the fact it does not need to transform at all. He is sculpted with his Ion Blaster in his right fist, and is articulated at the neck, shoulders and waist. He comes with a small movie-style Autobot sigil display stand.

:Part of the 2010 [[McDonald's]] ''Revenge of the Fallen'' promotion, Optimus does not transform but has a few gimmicks to make up for it. On his right arm he is armed with both a flip-out sword and his blaster. Turning the switch on the underside of the gun from off to on will then allow the red button top to light up a red LED. Optimus is articulated at shoulders and hips, and features pale blue light piping. He was only available during week 1 of the promotion, and came with an instruction sheet that doubles as an ad for [[McWorld]], featuring an exclusive code for the website.

:It is very likely that should the battery in Optimus's light up gimmick die, replacing it would be exceedingly difficult due to the unique style of screw McDonald's uses for its free toys.

His arm is in the Ion Blaster mode, and unlike many ''Robot Heroes'', he's not crouching. He's highly posable for a ''Robot Heroes'' figure, featuring four points of articulation: both shoulders swivel, his neck turns, and he has a waist joint.

Each figure is composed by two separate parts, the "robot mode" and the "vehicle mode".

:Optimus Prime's robot mode is a very simple mold cast in blue plastic with silver and red paint applications. His whole body is weirdly molded as if it's sitting in a chair or throne loosely based on parts of his vehicle mode. The actual vehicle, however, is a very little and flat approximation of his truck mode, smaller than a RPM and completely hollow when looked from underneath. The main gimmick of the figure is that, when the vehicle mode is placed inside the robot mode and the latter is standing on a smooth surface, pressing the robot's head will immediately launch the vehicle through his legs in "high speed". Thankfully, it does work better than Bumblebee's gimmick.

:The instructions show drawings way more detailed than the actual figure that are clearly based on the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Leader Class toys|original Leader class figure]] from the first ''Transformers'' movie toyline.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (2011)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''DMK01'''

:''Dual Model Kit'' Optimus Prime is a model kit released by TakaraTomy with pre-applied decals and pre-painted details on the parts molded in the runner. It is an incredibly-detailed figure, with many pieces (molded mainly in PS, PE, and ABS plastics) built around an articulated "skeleton." When fully assembled, he stands a few hairs shorter than the ROTF Leader class toy but is noticeably slimmer than his transformable counterpart. Optimus Prime comes with two swords, and two faces (battle mask and normal face). The swords can be attached by sitting on his forearms (in the manner seen in the movie) or they can replace his fists entirely. He also comes with an extra decal sheet, which optionally replaces the already-applied decals, if one wishes to repaint the pieces.

:Numerous reports have been made that his fingers are very loose and can detach easily, extra caution is recommended. Meanwhile, as with all of the non-undergated prepainted runners, cutting the pieces off the sprues may leave some marks, so any patch-up work on the paint details is needed.

:The separate Battle Hook parts (from ''Revenge of the Fallen'') are available with the kit if ordered through [[Toys"R"Us]] Japan's "DMK Optimus Prime Preorder Campaign" until June 12, Yodobashi Camera and Bic Camera also made a similar campaign after this.

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''DMK03'''
**''Accessories:'' Two open hands, two fists, sword, "Vector" shield, "Sentinel" shield attachment, sword clip

:This Optimus Prime DMK model is based on his appearance in the ''[[Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)|Age of Extinction]]'' film, as opposed to the mainline toys, which are based on the concept of art. Like the previous DMK models, he is very articulated, but his hands no longer feature individual finger articulation, most likely due to the fragility of said appendages in the previous DMK installments. Instead, he features two different pairs of hands, one pair designed to hold his sword, and another, more relaxed pair. He comes with his sword and 1 shield (compacted, with an extending gun barrel) with an optional deployed energy effect. There is also a small clip available to attach the sword to his back.

:Unlike the first DMK model, his flame tampographs are supplied by the included waterslide decals, which means you have to (carefully) apply them by yourself, so good luck.

:Threezero Optimus Prime is a non-transforming figure based on his appearance in the ''Bumblebee'' movie, standing at 11.2 inches tall, made to scale with ThreeZero's DLX Scale [[Bumblebee (Movie)/merchandise#Threezero|Bumblebee]] figure. Much like the other ThreeZero figures, Optimus contains [[die-cast]] pieces as well as extensive use of paint.

:Optimus comes with his Ion Blaster, which has a detachable clip from the gun to allow for further display options. He comes with seven extra hands, all made from flexible plastic and painted, with two pairs of hands made to hold his Ion blaster, two relaxed open hands, two open splayed hands, and one left pointing hand. He comes with a Display Base that allows for more stable poses alongside aerial poses. Using LR-44 batteries, his eyes also light up.

:Records show that while this is a rarity, early versions of the figure had some issues with the open relaxed hands of Optimus Prime being warped, with the smaller fingers like the pinky bending into the other fingers, though more recent releases have had this fixed since.

:This figure was repainted as [[Nemesis Prime (AOE)#ThreezeroBB|Nemesis Prime]] and as [[Ultra Magnus (Movie)#Threezero|Ultra Magnus]], and was slighty retooled into the [[Transformers: Shattered Glass (franchise)|Shattered Glass]] [[Optimus Prime (SG Movie)#Threezero|version]] of ''Bumblebee'' Optimus Prime.

:[[Yolopark]] ''IIES'' Optimus Prime is a highly-detailed and intricately designed non-transforming figure based on his appearance from the opening sequence of the ''Bumblebee'' movie, standing at 62 centimeters (approximately 24 inches), containing an extensive amount of die-cast, and an MSRP of $2199, officially costing more than your home insurance and your car insurance.

:This figure debuts Yolopark's '''Internal Interconnect Endoskeleton System''' (IIES for short), taking advantage of extensive gears to allow for smoother movement than the [[Ratchet (mechanism)|ratchet joints]] typically required in figures of a similar scale.

:Optimus includes an Ion Blaster designed with the same system, allowing expansion and contraction.

:Optimus also includes a removable Matrix of Leadership designed to look similarly to the Generation 1 Matrix of Leadership. The Matrix chamber in the figure's chest allows the artifact to be pushed out automatically.

:The Matrix, Prime's eyes and the Ion Blaster also contain LED lights. The translucent "holographic" projection of Earth does not.

:Part of Yolopark's inaugural wave of ''[[Yolopark#AMK_Series|AMK Series]]'' model kits, ''Rise of the Beasts'' Optimus comes out of the box in prebuilt modules as opposed to traditional model kit runners. This allows him to be assembled quickly and easily, as long as he comes with all the parts.

:Reports from the Philippines indicate that copies of this kit may include two of the same side fist part or thigh panel (i.e. two left fists) instead of one for each side.

:Yolopark AMK Pro Series ''The Last Knight'' Optimus Prime is a highly detailed and extremely well painted model kit of the character. Optimus comes out of the box in prepainted modules instead of the usual model kit runners. This allows him to be assembled easily, though not as fast as the AMK versions.

:He is well-articulated, with double-jointed elbows, knees and a double ball-jointed neck. He also has quite a fair bit of die-cast parts, with his shin armour and some of his inner frame including die-cast. He has a pair of articulated hands, but there is only a single joint that splits the fingers, so its not the best for posing. Its better to use the static ones if you want a pointing pose.

:He also includes an upgraded flight stand, with a bendy wire instead of the multi-jointed ones seen with the previous AMK Pro releases. Prime now fits into a cradle that surrounds his crotch area, being more secure than the previous one.

:Some owners have stated that the c-clip that holds the shoulder pad may be a bit too tight, causing the plastic to flex during posing. The bicep may also be too tight, so please use caution.

The comes with all of his weapons in the film, along with his Ion Blaster used in the ''Bumblebee'' movie's Cybertron sequences. He also features a more extensive and accurate paint deco, including the burn mark on his thigh and weathering and rust details.

:He is well-articulated, featuring a double ball-jointed neck, and whopping THREE joints at the knee for some real good bending action, and overall better tolerances than the AMK version.

:He now features ANOTHER upgraded flight stand, now ditching the cradle for a hexagon shaped plug that plugs into his butt port after you remove his butt plate. This is more secure than the cradle, but bear caution that the port is rather shallow, so don't force the plug in too far, as it may cause the plastic to flex and crack.

:''Arcee is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Movie continuity family]].''

[[File:Arceemovie.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|She's got legs, she knows how to use them. Temporarily, anyway.]]
Originally a member of the Autobots' science team, '''Arcee''' never stood out as being the "soldier" type until the war broke out. Though small compared to many of her peers and adversaries, she compensates with speed and aggressive maneuvers. Quickly developing hunter skills to be reckoned with, Arcee became one of the most dangerous Autobots around.<ref>''[[Transformers: The Reign of Starscream|The Reign of Starscream]]'' trade paperback bonus material</ref> She is a crack shot with her crossbow weapon, and [[Sideswipe (Movie)|Sideswipe]] has trained her to use her speed to her advantage in battle, striking suddenly and swiftly and then vanishing away again as fast as she appeared.

The events at [[Tyger Pax]] created a nagging doubt in Arcee about her abilities. She carries some guilt about [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]'s injuries, and part of what drives her is the desire to prove herself, not only in the optics of her friends, comrades, and even her sisters [[Elita-One (Movie)|Elita-One]] and [[Chromia (ROTF)|Chromia]], but most importantly in her own.

For a time, Arcee used experimental technology that allowed her mind to control ''three'' bodies at once! When two of these bodies were destroyed, she stayed out of sight to adjust to the return to single-body status.<ref>Hasbro's [http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/en_US/discover/cybertronian-database.cfm#/characters/arcee Vector Sigma: Arcee profile]</ref>

Arcee was held in reserve as NEST entered Shanghai to deal with Demolishor, only being called into action when the presence of a second Decepticon, [[Sideways (ROTF)|Sideways]], was detected. Together with the twins, Arcee pursued the sneaky speedster through the streets of Shanghai, smashing through buildings and everything else in her way, but ultimately, none of her three components were able to do much damage, so Sideswipe was brought up to bat, and he quickly put the Decepticon down.

While not on missions, Arcee was parked with the other Autobots in their hangar at [[Diego Garcia]]. It was here that the Autobots received word from the [[President of the United States]], via [[Theodore Galloway|Director Galloway]], that the White House was concerned that the Autobots' living on Earth was the reason for the Decepticon activity, and that if need be, they would ask the Autobots to leave. Later, after Optimus Prime died in battle and [[The Fallen]] issued an ultimatum to Earth, the US government decided that the Autobots would be shipped back to Diego Garcia.
[[File:ROTF Arcee shot.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Michael Bay displays his usual attitude towards women.]]
NEST had a different idea, and instead shipped Arcee and the other Autobots to [[Egypt]] on the advice of [[Sam Witwicky]], who had the means to resurrect Optimus Prime. During the climactic battle between NEST and The Fallen's Decepticons, Sam and Mikaela attempted to make their way through the bombed-out Egyptian town that had become the battlefield. Arcee arrived with [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] to escort them through the warzone, but unfortunately, two of her bodies were shot down by enemy forces, with only the blue component remaining operational when last seen. {{storylink|Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen}}

She was eventually ordered to retreat by [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]].

Arcee was among the crew of Autobots that had become stranded on Earth after arriving in 1987. Seven years later in 1994, she and the others were in [[New York City]] when Optimus witnessed the activation of the transwarp key. The Autobots regrouped in a warehouse to find [[Mirage (Movie)|Mirage]] had taken in a stowaway, [[Noah Díaz]], who Arcee researched and discovered his past as a soldier. Arcee confirmed the existence of the transwarp key in the museum on Ellis Island, and the group realized they could use it to return to Cybertron. Arcee pointed out they couldn't take the key themselves without evading detection, but Mirage convinced Noah to steal the key for them, despite the group's misgivings. Arcee helped stakeout the museum during Noah's infiltration, only for the Terrorcons to arrive in force. Arcee was knocked out of the fight by the burly [[Battletrap (ROTB)|Battletrap]], and the group lost Bumblebee to [[Scourge (ROTB)|Scourge's]] blade. The group was saved by the timely arrival of Airazor, who explained Scourge had only taken half of the key, and Arcee convinced [[Elena Wallace]] to help lead them to the remaining half in Peru after encouraging her with the knowledge she'd be saving two worlds in the process.

On the flight to Peru aboard [[Stratosphere]], Arcee wondered if the slain Bumblebee could be revived with an Energon treatment, but Optimus lamented that they likely couldn't without returning to Cybertron. The group linked up with Wheeljack and Arcee rode inside his vehicle mode as they took positions keeping watch while Noah and Elena hunted for the key. The Terrorcons arrived and engaged the Autobots in battle. While Wheeljack drove, Arcee provided some firepower in her robot mode, but once again Battletrap took her and Wheeljack out of the fight by making them tumble down a mountainside in the ensuing car chase. Arcee regrouped with the others when they confronted the Maximals, aiming at [[Cheetor (ROTB)|Cheetor]] until Airazor defused the stand-off. When Scourge obtained the complete key and began to bring [[Unicron]] to Earth, Arcee took part in the battle against the Terrorcons and their Predacon reinforcements. Though Arcee's speed and blasters served her well, things looked grim when Unicron appeared in the sky and the Autobot-Maximal alliance began to be submerged by the sheer numbers of their enemy. Arcee was aghast when Optimus declared his intention to sacrifice himself to destroy the portal bringing forth Unicron, but luckily, Noah and [[Optimus Primal (ROTB)|Optimus Primal]] saved Optimus and the day from the Chaos Bringer.

===IDW movie comics===
[[File:Foudnation2 ArceeChromiaElita.jpg|thumb]]
Thousands of years ago on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], Arcee lived in [[Metrotitan (ROTF)|Metrotitan]] with her sister Chromia, while their eldest sibling, Elita-One, became a follower of [[Sentinel Prime (ROTF)|Sentinel Prime]]. {{storylink|Foundation issue 1|Foundation #1}} Following Sentinel's successful unification of the warring tribes of Cybertron, Arcee and Chromia came to [[Trypticon (Movie)|Trypticon]] to hear his speech for the future. It was announced that the planet would be governed by a [[Science Division]] headed by [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus]], and a [[Defense Force]] led by [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]]; while Chromia elected to join the latter, Arcee, intrigued at the prospect of investigating the legacy of the [[Dynasty of Primes]], signed up with Optimus's team. The Science Division began an archaeological excavation of the area around [[Simfur]], uncovering a strange object that they believed to be connected to the Dynasty. {{storylink|Foundation issue 2|Foundation #2}}

[[File:Defiance1 Arcee vehicle.jpg|thumb|left|"I transform into a vacuum cleaner!"]]

Some time later, while Optimus was showing Megatron around their work, Arcee's team discovered a mysterious relic with a [[Decepticon|strange symbol]] etched into it. She led her superiors to the ancient relic and watched as Megatron and Optimus began to argue when the former demanded the relic be relocated to his private quarters, with Optimus relenting due to a sudden alien attack. Arcee assisted with its evacuation from the dig site. {{storylink|Defiance issue 1|Defiance #1}}

After the attack, Arcee tried to save the life of one of the aliens, but was unsuccessful. She and [[Clocker (Movie)|Clocker]] moved the bodies to [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]]'s lab, where they discovered that the beings were similar in structure to the Cybertronians, only lacking the ability to [[transformation|transform]]. Before they could speculate further about the common ancestry of the two races, [[Signal Flare (Movie)|Signal Flare]] arrived with orders from Optimus to assemble at the Simfur excavation site for a meeting. There, Arcee and the other scientists learned of Protector Megatron's demand for war and Optimus's thoughts on the issue. After most of the scientists agreed to follow Optimus, they travelled to [[Trypticon (Movie)|Trypticon]] to watch Megatron deliver his saber-rattling war rally. {{storylink|Defiance issue 2|Defiance #2}}

[[File:Foundation4Arceechromiaknockeoutbymegatron.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|That's not how you treat 2 ladies, Megatron.]]

Ratchet, Arcee and Elita-One returned to the lab to analyze the other relic fragments recovered from the Simfur excavation, while Optimus, [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]] and [[Prowl (Movie)|Prowl]] broke into Megatron's quarters to examine the intact relic. Before Optimus could explain to Ratchet the strange condition of the artifact, Arcee reported finding a symbol that appeared in the same place on all the different fragments: the same symbol that was on Optimus's head. Ratchet theorised that the legend of the [[Dynasty of Primes]] was true, and that Optimus was somehow connected to all of this. Later, at the dig site near [[Burthov]], Arcee, Ratchet and Optimus were arrested by Prowl's security forces on orders from Megatron for treason. What they didn't know was they were all being led into a trap, and the assassins Megatron sent would only take Optimus alive. After [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]]'s initial attack, Optimus ordered the group to escape to Burthov while he took care of [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] and his soldiers. {{storylink|Defiance issue 3|Defiance #3}}{{storylink|Foundation issue 3|Foundation #3}}

Arcee was part of the team who captured the disenchanted soldier [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]] and brought him before Optimus Prime. Ironhide pledged allegiance to Prime and brought news of the ''[[Nemesis (ROTF)|Nemesis]]'', a massive starship that Megatron was building. While observing its construction and taking images of the ship, Arcee remarked that she had never seen its like before. {{storylink|Defiance issue 4|Defiance #4}} From [[Tyger Pax]], she witnessed the departure of the ''Nemesis'' with the rest of the Autobots. {{storylink|Foundation issue 3|Foundation #3}}

[[File:MoviePrequel1 Arcee Bumblebee.jpg|left|upright=1.4|thumb|"Can I say something?" "Whatever it is, now is not the right time!"]]

During the subsequent civil war, Arcee defended civilians who were being targeted by Megatron's Decepticons for refusing to join in the war against Optimus Prime's Autobots. {{storylink|Defiance issue 4|Defiance #4}} As the war raged on, Sentinel invented a "[[pillar|torch]]" that he promised would end the war, which required the [[AllSpark]] to be activated. Arcee and Chromia flanked Ironhide at the lead of the assault on Simfur Temple. As the battle raged, Arcee and Chromia were swatted aside by Megatron, but Optimus attacked, allowing Elita to activate the torch and deliver it to Sentinel. Sentinel arrived in the [[Ark (DOTM)|Ark]], but Starscream blew up the ship. Ironhide picked up Arcee and Chromia as the Autobots retreated. However, the assault had weakened Decepticon morale and [[Wheeljack (Movie)|Wheeljack]] commanded another [[Ark (Movie)|Ark]] for Arcee and Chromia to steal the AllSpark itself! {{storylink|Foundation issue 4|Foundation #4}}

Later, Arcee fought the Decepticons during an attempt to reclaim the Cube at Tyger Pax. However, Arcee and the rest of those under Bumblebee's command didn't know the true purpose of their battle: they were a diversion to keep Megatron busy while other Autobots readied the AllSpark for launch from Cybertron. She was captured and interrogated by the Decepticons but survived the ordeal. She recounted to their Autobot rescuers Bumblebee's heroics in delaying Megatron, which prevented the Decepticon from intercepting the wormhole-bound AllSpark. {{storylink|Movie Prequel issue 1|Movie Prequel #1}}

[[File:ReignofStarscream4 Arcee.jpg|upright=0.85|thumb]]

Following the Autobots' victory in Mission City, which culminated in the death of [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] and the destruction of the AllSpark on [[Earth]], Arcee was in command of an Autobot assault team on [[Mars (planet)|Mars]] and led [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]] and others in an attack on [[Nemesis (Movie)|Starscream's ship]]. {{storylink|The Reign of Starscream issue 2|The Reign of Starscream #2}} While her team made short work of the [[Swindle (Movie)|Swindle]], [[Dreadwing (Movie)|Dreadwing]], and [[Payload (Movie)|Payload]] drones the Decepticons sent against them, Arcee killed the Decepticon sniper [[Hardtop (Movie)|Hardtop]] before he could take out [[Smokescreen (Movie)|Smokescreen]]. Her teammates were unprepared for the arrival of [[Thundercracker (Movie)|Thundercracker]], however, and he quickly slew [[Camshaft (Movie)|Camshaft]] and wounded [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]]. Remembering her failure at Tyger Pax, Arcee leapt into action, and soon she and Cliffjumper had Thundercracker at their mercy. The arrival of Starscream changed that, as he killed Smokescreen and Air Raid and badly damaged Cliffjumper. As she attempted to pull the last surviving member of her team to safety, Arcee was kicked aside by Starscream. {{storylink|The Reign of Starscream issue 3|The Reign of Starscream #3}}

However, Arcee recovered an instant later. The Decepticon starship was already taking off, but she jumped and grabbed onto a piece of landing gear, holding on tight... through the [[space bridge]]. Wow. Later, she made her way back to an Autobot facility, where she unexpectedly met Clocker and [[Crosshairs (Movie)|Crosshairs]]. Along with a large force of Autobots, the three moved in on the Simfur temple, where Starscream was using captured Autobots for a strange project of his. {{storylink|The Reign of Starscream issue 4|The Reign of Starscream #4}}

She split her troops into two forces: One would attack the city of Trypticon as a diversion, while the other moved in on Simfur. Arcee and her team could only watch helplessly as Starscream drained the life out of the Autobot prisoners strapped onto the [[replica AllSpark]], despite her sister Elita-One's pleas for mercy. An opportunity to cause havoc presented itself when [[Dreadwing (Movie)|Dreadwing]]'s forces attempted a coup. Arcee lined up her sights on the generator holding the life energy of the deceased prisoners, dedicated the shot to Elita, and destroyed it, annihilating the Cube and sending the Decepticons into disarray. Arcee's team fought their way through the disorganised Decepticons, linked up with [[Wingblade]]'s team, and rolled out just as the crippled starship came crashing down on the city. With the destruction of the capitol and the defeat of a significant portion of the Decepticon drone army, Arcee considered this to be the turning point of the war, but as long as Starscream was alive, he was a threat that she had to track down. {{storylink|The Reign of Starscream issue 5|The Reign of Starscream #5}}

[[File:TalesoftheFallen6-Arceeprotoforms.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.4|The best part of waking up is ... still being in your own body.]]

Some time later, a ship carrying Arcee and her crew was shot down over an unidentified planet, and when Arcee managed to escape the wreckage, she saw that the culprit was her old nemesis, Thundercracker. She blacked out, and an indeterminate amount of time later, she awoke on an operating table—or rather, next to her old body on an operating table. Her [[spark]] had been transplanted into a new body by the Decepticon mad scientist [[Flatline (ROTF)|Flatline]], as part of a twisted plan to create a new breed of tripartate soldier by using her spark to reignite those of her deceased sisters, Elita-One and Chromia. Flatline had not considered Arcee's strong will, however, and her original programming persisted. She broke free and escaped with two of Flatline's other experiment victims, the twins [[Skids (ROTF)|Skids]] and [[Mudflap (ROTF)|Mudflap]], but was surprised to learn that Flatline's experiment had worked: her sisters lived again in two bodies similar to her own new form, but now, they were connected at the spark, sharing the thoughts, feelings and memories of one another, thinking with one mind yet still retaining a degree of autonomy and recollection of their previous selves. [[File:TalesoftheFallen6-whereishe.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|WASSSS A MAAANNN (now three man)]] The united sisters defeated Flatline, and with the Twins, headed for the exit, but Thundercracker and some Decepticon drones blocked them. Thundercracker laughed, since Arcee hadn't fared too well the last time they tangled, but... that was then. Thundercracker was easily bested by the new and improved Arcee, and escaped while Flatline's headquarters detonated by remote. Arcee wondered whether her weird new existence was a mistake, or if she was merely destined for greater things. Regardless, she refused to become bent on revenge against Thundercracker for the deaths of her crew, so she and the Twins made plans to join the rest of the Autobots. {{storylink|Tales of the Fallen issue 6|Tales of the Fallen #6}} {{storylink|Rising Storm issue 1|Rising Storm #1}}

A short time later, Arcee and her sisters, along with [[Skids (ROTF)|Skids]], [[Mudflap (ROTF)|Mudflap]], [[Sideswipe (Movie)|Sideswipe]], [[Topspin (DOTM)|Topspin]], [[Leadfoot (DOTM)|Leadfoot]] and [[Roadbuster (DOTM)|Roadbuster]] arrived on Earth on the [[Wreckers]] ship [[Xantium (DOTM)|Xantium]]. (While the ship and the Wreckers stayed behind in [[NASA]]) {{storylink|Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon}}{{storylink|Dark of the Moon issue 3}} in response to a summons beamed into space by Optimus Prime Joining the allied Autobot-human strikeforce [[NEST]], the new recruits received some training, and were soon called upon to put it into use: the Decepticon [[Demolishor (ROTF)|Demolishor]] had been sighted in [[Shanghai]], [[China]]. {{Storylink|Alliance issue 4|Alliance #4}}

[[File:ArceeROTFIDWCombo.jpg|left|thumb|upright=0.85|Remember what [[Marvel Comics|Marvel]] did with [[Sky Lynx (G1)|Sky Lynx]] and the [[Duocon]]s?]]
Arcee participated in the [[Shanghai]] battle. When [[Twins (ROTF)|the Twins]] botched their chase of [[Sideways (ROTF)|Sideways]], the Arcee motorcycles gave chase before [[Sideswipe (Movie)|Sideswipe]] finished the job. {{storylink|Revenge of the Fallen issue 1|Revenge of the Fallen #1}} When the Autobots were on the move to the US East Coast investigating on multiple detected Decepticon contacts, at least one of the Arcee bikes was seen alongside [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] and [[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]. Later, while Optimus was fighting [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]], [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] and [[Grindor (ROTF)|Grindor]] in the forest, at least two Arcee bikes were approaching the battle site alongside [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]], [[Skids (ROTF)|Skids]] and [[Mudflap (ROTF)|Mudflap]]. An Arcee robot was also seen with [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] and Ironhide when the latter was firing at Starscream and Megatron who were fleeing from the site. The Arcee robot was the first one to notice Optimus Prime's severe damage before Ratchet pronounced him "nearly gone". {{storylink|Revenge of the Fallen issue 2|Revenge of the Fallen #2}} All three Arcee robots were with the other Autobots when they were facing the [[Constructicon (ROTF)|Constructicons]] in the desert of Egypt. {{storylink|Revenge of the Fallen issue 3|Revenge of the Fallen #3}}

[[File:TFSpaceCase-SpaceCasehitsArcee.jpg|thumb|right]]
Sometime later after [[Operation: Firestorm]], Arcee joined Bumblebee and Sam for a picnic, which was cut short when they went to investigate an energy signal that had appeared after an earthquake. The trio proceeded deep underground and, just as Arcee was admonishing Sam to be careful, Space Case ambushed them. Despite their numeric superiority, the Autobots had trouble with their enemy because they were afraid firing weapons might cause their unstable surroundings to collapse. Space Case, angry at what he perceived as persecution from the Autobots, activated his plasma afterburners and rocketed out of the cave, triggering the feared cave-in and burying Sam and the Autobots. {{storylink|Transformers: Space Case}} Arcee managed to send out a distress signal, to which Ratchet responded. The medic fended off Space Case and managed to free Arcee from a pile of rubble, allowing her to go after Space Case a fleeing Space Case. {{storylink|Transformers: Ratchet}} The chase took them towards a densely populated city. Despite Space Case's engine damage, he still had a significant speed advantage over Arcee. As she paused to consider her options, she received a holographic communication from Ratchet. The Autobot medic reported that Sam Witwicky and Bumblebee had survived their encounter with Space Case with no serious injuries, and suggested that Arcee meet back up with them. Arcee cut him off abruptly, inwardly observing that while Ratchet thought she continued to chase Space Case out of a misplaced sense of pride, that's not really what she was doing at all. Arcee then caught up with Space Case. Panicking, Space Case threw Arcee through a storefront and took to the air in another attempt to escape. Arcee, determined not to let anything keep her down, sped after Space Case, used a building to ramp up to his altitude, and destroyed his other engine. Space Case went plummeting into the distance, headed for the waterfront. As he vanished from sight, he promised to be back. Arcee knew she'd be ready for his eventual return. {{storylink|Transformers: Arcee}}

[[File:RisingStorm1 ArceeInjured.jpg|thumb|left]]
When NEST discovered that Starscream was selling Transformer weaponry to humans, a sting operation was staged in which [[Theodore Galloway]] would pose as a buyer to lure the Decepticons in. When [[Skystalker (ROTF)|Skystalker]], [[Divebomb (Movie)|Divebomb]] and [[Fearswoop (ROTF)|Fearswoop]] took the bait, Arcee and her sisters joined the twins and the human forces of NEST in tackling them. The sisters did not take kindly to Skystalker's incredulity about the Autobots "sending their women" to do their fighting for them, and killed him with practised ease. The battle aggravated the wounds Arcee had taken in Egypt the previous year, however, and she was brought back to Diego Garcia for medical attention courtesy of Ratchet. {{storylink|Rising Storm issue 1|Rising Storm #1}}

After Sam Witwicky contacted Optimus Prime as Philadelphia was being attacked by Decepticons, Optimus decided that the sisters should be left out of the fight due to Arcee's wounds. Arcee wanted to go despite Chromia's attempt to let her stay behind while her two sisters went. In the end, Optimus decided to allow her to go with Chromia and Elita-1. {{storylink|Rising Storm issue 2|Rising Storm #2}}

[[File:RisingStorm 3 Arcee, Ravage and Ratbat.jpg|thumb|Ravage and Ratbat teach you how to get dates]]

She and her sisters went to New York thinking they would get information on Starscream selling his weapons to humans, but instead they found Astrotrain and a monster. And they also found out that Shockwave was on earth, so they tried to inform Optimus, but [[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]] jammed their communication and sent his minions after the girls. Arcee and Chromia told Elita-1 to find Optimus. {{storylink|Rising Storm issue 3|Rising Storm #3}}

As Ravage was attacking her. Arcee began to feel the pain of her wounds (and Chromia began to feel them too), later Elita-1 died and Arcee and Chromia felt her death. Despite Arcee's attempts to stop her, Chromia activated some bombs they brought with them (which possibly killed Soundwave's minions). Arcee and Chromia survived the explosion. {{storylink|Rising Storm issue 4|Rising Storm #4}}

===Titan movie comics===
Originally, Arcee didn't serve either faction, working alone to solve injustices in her own way. [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]] personally decided to make an example of her, and only an Autobot extraction team led by [[Kup (Movie)|Kup]] saved her life. This debt saw her join the Autobots. She's chimerical in nature and is constantly changing her [[Alternate mode|altmode]] in an effort to go as fast as possible (maybe that's why her [[robot mode]] always looks different!). She [[Arcee (G1)|previously had a hover-car form]], but on Earth takes a modified bike mode. Once you earn her trust, she's [[Rick Astley|never going to let you down]]. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 21|Arcee bio}}

During the AllSpark launch, she led the six-bot team that drew Megatron's attention to Tyger Pax. And Optimus only told ''Bumblebee'' that's what their mission was! {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2|#2's reprint of Movie Prelude}}

[[File:Titan5 Sidewayssideswipes.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|I'm such good friends that I all dress alike!]]

Arcee had been on Earth for some time before [[Skids (ROTF)|Skids]] and [[Mudflap (ROTF)|Mudflap]] arrived. When using all three of her bodies, she refers to her collective self as "we". Back then, she was keeping her pink paint job!

She went on to assist Optimus Prime in a [[NEST]] mission in [[Australia]], and so was in a perfect position to capture the Decepticon [[Sideways (ROTF)|Sideways]]. Pursuing him in bike(s) mode, she found it near impossible to blow out his tyres and kept getting sideswiped by him during the pursuit. When a stunned Optimus ordered her to stay on the Decepticon's tail, she responded that the Decepticon's alt mode was far better suited for the terrain... inspiring Optimus to ''blow up'' that terrain.
[[File:Titan2-8 dronesurrender.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.66|Geez, this just getting ''confusing''.]]
With Sideways stunned and taking robot form, Arcee sent one bike in to take him down but almost got hit before human military helicopters arrived to back her up. The mission over, she and Optimus took their prisoner back to [[Diego Garcia]], with Arcee escorting him to a cell. But surprise, [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] was waiting to free him! She was quickly stunned and unable to stop the Decepticons escaping. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.5|Reversal of Fortune}}

She later decided it'd be fun to switch back to her older, single-form body! Her old body got a good workout when she was part of the strike team on the Decepticon's [[Mars (planet)|Phobos]] base. After a brief but violent battle, the [[Purple generic drone|drone hordes]] surrendered to her and [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]]. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.8|Back-to-Back}}

====Alternate timeline====
[[File:Titan13 Arcee.jpg|thumb|"I don't ''want'' to look retro!!"]]
In an [[Tyran 208.28 Gamma|alternate timeline]] where the Decepticons won the battle of [[Mission City]], Arcee was a member of a small group of reinforcements summoned to Earth by the remaining Autobots on the planet. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 9|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 1}} {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 10|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 2}} Touching down on Earth's [[Moon (moon)|moon]] to await contact from Earth, they were attacked by [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]], but the quick-thinking Arcee took command and rallied the troops. When this still failed to work, she ordered them to Earth (following [[Strongarm (Movie)|Strongarm]]'s initiative) and their prearranged targets. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 11|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 3}} Joining up with the Earth-bound Autobots, Arcee refused to accept defeat, and helped [[Armorhide (Movie)|Armorhide]] defend [[Ratchet (Movie)|Ratchet]] while he destroyed the AllSpark, foiling the Decepticons' plan to cyberform Earth using its power. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 12|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 4}} {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 13|Twilight's Last Gleaming, Part: 5}}

Arcee was left bewildered by the idea that Humanity would not trust and love the Autobots, and Optimus explained to her that, from a human point of view, all the Transformers are alien horrors fighting on their planet. Following this, she guarded the [[Savannah]], [[Georgia]] shelter and was caught in an ambush staged by [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]]. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 14|Aftermath Part 1}} {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 15|Aftermath Part 2}}

[[File:Titan22 Arcee.jpg|left|thumb|"''That's'' better!"]]

Later, after serving with Bumblebee in protecting an Alaskan pipeline, among other engagements to protect the American infrastructure, {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 16|Dark Spark}} Arcee was part of Ironhide's team in retrieving [[Nucleon (substance)|Nucleon]] from Cybertron, which ran afoul of [[Stockade (Movie)|Stockade]]. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 17|Return to Cybertron: Part 1}} She acted as Bumblebee's distraction, drawing [[Storm Surge (Movie)|Storm Surge]] and [[Fracture (Movie)|Fracture]] away, {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 18|Return to Cybertron: Part 2}} and doubled back to regroup with Ironhide (and pull him out of rubble) when [[Unicron]] arrived. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 19|Return to Cybertron: Part 3}} Later, she got Optimus Prime up to speed on the situation. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 20|Return to Cybertron: Part 4}}

Following the Decepticon re-conquest of Savannah, Arcee was part of the raid to rescue [[Mikaela Banes]]. She got off one bit of bravado about how hitting things was her kind of shindig before [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]] hit ''her''. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 22|The Decepticon Who Haunted Himself}}

When the Autobots launched their final strike, Arcee was part of the spearhead team hitting the [[Decepticon Heartland]]. She started off the 'tagging' of Decepticons to teleport them away from Earth, getting [[Incinerator (Movie)|Incinerator]] in the back and looking very happy about it. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 25|Revolution Part Three}}

===Toy bios===
Arcee was well trained by Ironhide, making her one of the most dangerous Autobots. She believes without question that the Decepticons must be stopped at all costs. {{storylink|#Scout Class toys|Arcee (Scout)}}

Arcee honed her speed by [[hunting]] [[turbofox]]es with other speedsters, challenging herself to get as close as possible before tagging them with her bow. Arriving on [[Earth]] at some point in the early 21st Century, she would spend her days stalking unsuspecting Decepticons until she drew them close enough to strike. {{storylink|#2007dlx|Arcee (Movie Deluxe)}} However, when the situation on Earth began to ramp up into out-and-out combat, Arcee was reassigned to the [[Charii system]]. It was there where her stealth skills would be of more use, fighting against a Decepticon splinter cell working on a star-breaking weapon. {{storylink|Robo-Vision|Arcee (Robo-Vision)}}

Nevertheless, Arcee jumped at the chance to get back on Earth and was soon handed control of her own strike team, made up of robots similar to her in attitude and design. She stalked Decepticons and killed them on the quiet. {{storylink|#Deluxe Class toys 2|Arcee (ROTF Deluxe)}} She also started following the tradition of inscribing Cybertronian words on your chassis: while she wasn't superstitious, the ''Decepticons'' sure were! It also gave her a nice confidence boost. {{storylink|#Deluxe Class toys 4|Arcee (DOTM Deluxe)}}

Whenever Arcee partook in a fight, she was fighting to win. She always made sure her weapons were fully charged and her engine was tuned to perfection. By the time Decepticons saw Arcee in their rearview mirrors, there was no escape for them. {{storylink|#Fast Action Battlers|Cyber Pursuit Arcee}}

While fighting the dread [[Tailwhip]], Arcee was trapped in his vortex and her only chance was to shoot out the blades of the evil robot above her. {{storylink|#Deluxe Class toys 3|Rotorwash Rumble}} Her closest comrade was Ratchet, as they both carried a standing feud with [[Lockdown (ROTF)|Lockdown]] for [[The Thrill of the Hunt|unknown reasons]].<ref name="battlebio">[http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/en_US/discover/Battle-Bios.cfm Hasbro Arcee Battle Bio]</ref>

: Arcee is a [[redeco]] of ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' [[Arcee (Energon)|Arcee]], replacing her pinks and most of her whites and blacks with blue, and her translucent red with smoky brown plastic. She transforms into a "superbike"-type racing motorcycle. Unusually for a Transformer, she does not hold her weapon in her hands as most figures do. Instead, her Energon Bow mounts on a peg on either arm, with her hands being positioned to give the appearance of her using the bow. The bow itself is spring-loaded, firing a grey "arrow" missile.

:Arcee (and the rest of the Scout wave) were [[exclusive]] to [[Target]] stores, where they were all part of a [[Robo-Vision]] promotion. Arcee came with a Robo-Vision Decoder which allows you to see the Robo-Vision Code ("BULLSEYE") printed on her cardback. Starting [[June 2]], 2007, Target's website allowed users to input those codes to access exclusive content, a concept similar to the online [[Cyber Planet Key]] info from the [[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|''Cybertron'' toyline]].

: Deluxe Arcee transforms into a purple 2006 Buell Firebolt XB12R motorcycle, genericised to get around licensing issues. Arcee has references [[tampograph]]ed on her [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]], such as her motorcycle's fictional model name, "RC 1100" (Get it? "RC" as in "Arcee"), and her [[Massachusetts]] [[license plate]] marked TF7407, the original release date of the movie.

: Arcee's [[Automorph Technology|Automorphing]] feature is located in her crossbow weapon (formed out of the seat/storage area of the bike), activated when the projectile (the bike's tailpipe) is inserted, which pushes out the recurved lath parts on the sides of the weapon. The rectangular peg which is supposed to be used to attach her weapon to her forearm in [[robot mode]] is sometimes a poor fit, and the weapon may pop off. As an alternative, the round peg by which the weapon is attached in ''vehicle'' mode can also be used in robot mode, with a little rearranging of parts.

: Undocumented in the instructions, the two shoulder-mounted half-wheels contain a small niche on the edge of the tires. By folding the wheels down with the hubcaps pointing towards the chest and turning the tires towards the shoulders, one can feel the wheels gently click into place via the tire niches and hidden tabs in the shoulders, allowing the wheels to remain in place and more closely resemble the figure as pictured on its packaging. Probably coincidentally, Arcee is almost perfectly scaled to 3.75 inch figures like Hasbro's own ''G.I. Joe'', though this would put her vehicle mode more in line with the size of the larger Kawasaki Ninja than the Firebolt.

: As with most larger Transformers toys that become motorcycles, Arcee has a kickstand on the left side of the bike; unfortunately, it's mounted so low that she will fall in the opposite direction if it is fully extended.

However, the piece can slide into a similar piece in the later Arcee toy, starting the supposed combined mode.

:While the instructions depict the motorcycle seat remaining flat so that it ends up covering the bottom wheel, the robot mode more closely resembles the movie design if the seat is folded in and locked into a slot on the motorcycle's bottom, as shown on the back of the packaging. The packaging photo also shows Chromia's front wheel resting behind the robot's shoulders, while the instructions leave it above her head. Furthermore, while it is not mentioned either in the instructions or shown on the box, the stand can be attached backwards and rotated with the guns facing up so that it acts as a prop for the toy, allowing the wheel to actually touch the ground, and letting the toy look from the front like it is unsupported. In addition, the stand can also be attached to right arm as an inordinately large handgun by sliding the two pegs inside the gun into two slots on the inside of the arm.

:The stand has sculpted tank treads on the bottom, most likely to make it look that she's still mobile while using it.

:Though the instructions do not explain it, the back of the blister card mentions she has a [[Mech Alive]] gimmick in her left arm. While it isn't quite the "spinning gears" the card refers to, swinging her left forearm towards and away from her body makes a blue piston slide back and forth inside the large gun.

:Deluxe class ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' Arcee converts from an unlicensed {{w|Ducati 848}} to a robot mode that can look quite awkward if not properly aligned. The figure has a sidecar which can become a Dual Sniper Pistol<ref name="battlebio"/> or a display stand. In robot mode, she is equipped with a small cannon on her right wrist that can deploy a spring-loaded energy blade. Small [[Cyberglyphics]] inscriptions are molded onto the surface of the blade.

:Her [[Mech Alive]] feature is located not in her elbow, as the packaging would suggest, but instead in her chest; tilting her neck up and down causes a pair of exposed gears to turn.

:*''Accessories:'' Exhaust pipes/missile

:A simplified version of her ''Revenge of the Fallen'' toy, [[Fast Action Battlers]] Arcee is targeted at the age 5 and under demographic, being a simplified version of her Deluxe-Class toy and having more limited articulation (that's better than most Fast Action Battlers toys). This version does away with the sidecar/stand in favor of a built-in, fully retractable stand, as well as featuring a kickstand and free spinning wheels. Her main gimmick is the ability to fire her dual exhaust pipes as a single missile in both robot and vehicle mode. She features fully working suspension, but due to the transformation locking both wheels in place, it is not available in vehicle mode.

:Despite being intended for a sub-line that focuses on fast and fairly easy transformations, the design of the shoulder joints and the nature of the transformation can make transforming from robot to vehicle mode frustrating. Ironic.

: Coming with [[Skids (ROTF)|Skids]] and [[Mikaela Banes]], ''[[Human Alliance]]'' Arcee is a robot that transforms into a motorcycle. As with the other Human Alliance vehicles, Mikaela can ride her in her vehicle mode.

: This figure, which is somewhere in between [[Legends Class (2005)|Legends]] and [[size class|Scout Class]] size, has a motorcycle mode that is slightly similar to Arcee's Ducati 848, with some elements resembling the Aprilia RS125 Mikaela is riding at one point in the [[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|movie]], and some elements entirely made up. The robot mode, meanwhile, is clearly that of the blue motorcycle, [[Chromia (ROTF)|Chromia]]. Hasbro explained in their monthly Q&A that it ''is'' meant to resemble Mikaela's bike, and they called it "Arcee" so kids wouldn't be confused by two separate red/pink bikes.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=65426 Hasbro December 09 Q&A, AllSpark]</ref> Also, the face, which is mostly unpainted save for a few small details, doesn't resemble ROTF Arcee's movie design at all. In fact, the head design bears some resemblance to [[Nightbird (G1)|Nightbird]].

: Despite being larger than a Legends Class figure, Arcee features less [[articulation]] than most of them. While her right elbow features a swivel joint, the left arm is sculpted in one piece, and the elbow fixed in a permanent position.

: This mold was later redecoed into ''Dark of the Moon'' Human Alliance [[Elita-One (Movie)|Elita-1]].

: Coming with [[Mudflap (ROTF)|Mudflap]] and [[Seymour Simmons]], Human Alliance Chromia is, you guessed it, a robot that transforms into a motorcycle. Simmons can ride her in her vehicle mode as well.

: Aside from the colour scheme, this "Chromia" is clearly meant to be Arcee as it has the main component's robot mode, and its vehicle mode is closer to Arcee's than either the motorcycle included with Human Alliance Skids or the Deluxe Chromia. Its higher level of movie-accuracy includes a much more accurate head sculpt, and although its left arm is also cast in one piece, the extra articulation in the shoulders, waist and hips makes the figure more posable than the other HA motorcycle.

: The transformation is surprisingly complex and fiddly for a figure this size, which is basically a non-autotransforming version of the larger FAB. In robot mode the figure has a piece than the wheels can stand on to support them, or be rotated behind to prop the figure up with some care. The kickstand is too short to hold the bike upright in vehicle mode, although this is easily fixed by gluing a small piece of black plastic to its base to lengthen it. She suffers from balance issues in robot mode as well, since her robot-mode stand ends up placed more towards her left side instead of at the center, meaning she tends to fall to her right side often.

: She also comes packaged incompletely transformed, with her (difficult to open) right hand left untransformed as the motorbike's seat. Good luck getting ''that'' out.

:Elita-1 is a black, white and metallic pink [[redeco]] of Chromia, transforming from a unicycle-robot into a {{w|Suzuki B-King}} motorcycle. Her vehicle mode weapon can attach as a display stand for either mode, ironically making a unicyclebot one of the most stable robot-modes. In robot mode, there is a spring-loaded missile between the tailpipes on Chromia's left hand in addition to the aforementioned non-firing blaster-stand. She is slightly retooled from the original Chromia figure, sporting an extra tab that allows her chest to lock together more securely. She was released as part of the [[Hunt for the Decepticons]] promotion.

:Elita-1 features a small [[Mech Alive]] gimmick: swinging her left forearm towards and away from her body makes a blue piston slide back and forth inside the large gun. Her stand has sculpted tank threads on the bottom, most likely to make it look that she's still mobile while using it. Her license plate has ''3L 174'' written on it as an stylish way of spelling her own name. [[Headmaster (Animated)|A certain fellow]] would approve of that.

:[[TakaraTomy]] initially mistakenly solicited their release of Elita-1 using the purple Arcee redeco from the "Rotorwash Rumble" pack. The actual released toy uses the Chromia mold just like Hasbro, with a more [[show-accuracy|screen accurate]] deco that uses more purple paint.

She comes packaged with [[Chromia (ROTF)#Studio Series|Chromia]] and [[Elita-One (Movie)#Studio Series|Elita-1]] in a three-pack priced at the standard Deluxe Class price value, making the trio the smallest transforming figures in the ''Studio Series'' line to date. The set includes three unique stands for each sister's bottom wheels, helping them stay upright, and a cardboard backdrop display of their pursuit of [[Sideways (ROTF)|Sideways]] through Shanghai's streets.

:Though not included in the toys' instructions, the three sisters can combine into a kind of motorcycle-centaur form, as originally proposed for (but cut from) the movie (see "[[#Notes|Notes]]," below). The combined form is assembled using special tabs on Elita-1 and Chromia's stands to link the figures together, and its appearance is completed with three accessories: a pink cannon, a blue sword, and a blue shoulder pad, which all attach to Arcee. Arcee can also wear the parts while in her individual robot mode (as can Chromia), but neither they nor the sisters' stands store anywhere in vehicle mode.

Like most of ''Bumblebee'''s Cybertronian characters in the toyline, her alternate mode was created by Hasbro and TakaraTomy for the toy as the film model was not designed to transform.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=-SS BB intro figures all have altmodes designed post-film by Hasbro/TT for this line, only Ravage had an ILM-side design for an altmode since he uses it on-screen -these wouldn't have been SS candidates due to lack of altmodes but there was lots of internal love for the designs|link=https://twitter.com/Vangelus/status/1466819619063308289|name=Chris Ho|site=Twitter|year=2021|month=12|day=03|(defunct=)}}</ref>

:She comes with two pistols based on her weapon in the film, itself a shrunken down version of the larger blaster the other Autobots used. Since she only used one in the film, the other can be given to ''Studio Series'' [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Studio Series|Cliffjumper]], who did not include the smaller blaster he had in the movie. The blasters can store on tabs molded onto her thrusters/backpack in robot mode. In vehicle mode, they are meant to be held in her hands at the rear of the vehicle. The tabs on her thrusters can also be used, but doing so will leave her hands ''very'' exposed. The heels can fold down to become wheels for Arcee to skate on in robot mode. There are molded gaps in the front wheels that are meant to line up with other parts of her feet; forgetting about them means the feet will not collapse all the way.

:Oddly, Arcee has no blue paint for her optics, giving her a very dead-eyed look. On some copies, it can be difficult to keep her neck tabbed into the front of her torso.

:Like all other ''Studio Series'' toys, the interior of the package forms a display backdrop. As with most ''Bumblebee'' ''Studio Series'' figures, this backdrop depicts a war-torn Cybertron as it appears in the beginning of the film.

:Arcee was officially revealed during the [[December 3]], [[2021]] ''Transformers'' team roundtable with fans.

:This figure was retooled to make ''[[Transformers: Legacy|Legacy]]'' [[Javelin]].

Her small size is to scale with other characters from the movie. She comes with her blaster, which stores underneath the motorcycle to form a kickstand. Like her ''Bumblebee'' toy above, the wheels on her legs can be flipped down as roller skates, but good luck getting her to stay upright, as she lacks any sort of support in this position.

:Her front wheel is on detachable 3 mm peg, and comes as such in the box. It can be removed and wielded in her hands or just to clean up her back. The rest of her back kibble can also be removed if so desired, due to it using a friction hinge.

:Her head has sculpted in pigtails, accurate to her CG model.

:The stock photo of her motorcycle mode is badly mistransformed, neglecting to transform the rear entirely. According to Sam Smith, this Arcee's face is pink and her wheels are on her legs based on an earlier version of the movie design.

:Notably, Arcee is packaged with her waist swiveled so that her legs are facing to her left, due to the size of the wheels on the back of her legs. Her packaging is decorated with the artwork of the "Cliffside Chase" backdrop.

:Interestingly, her chest plate is inaccurate to the movie model, but accurate to the earlier control art for Arcee. This is because the movie model does not have the headlights on her chest, while the toy and control art does.

:Arcee and her wavemate [[Freezer]] were officially revealed by Hasbro on [[January 10]], 2023.

:Released as part of [[Blokees]]' ''Classic Class'' model kit line, this Arcee is modeled after her appearance in ''Rise of the Beasts'', and she's a non-transforming ''Gunpla''-style model kit with some pre-painted parts. As with every Classic Class kit, Arcee also features a torso frame that lights up upon shaking (or at least ''lightly tap'' some areas on the torso), causing the eyes and the chest windows to glow for a limited time. Aside from the usual display stand and its energy effects, Arcee comes with her two blasters. Her wheels can be attached to either her back or the backs of her legs.

:Arcee is one of the smallest ''Classic Class'' models when completed, standing roughly the same height as a ''Galaxy Version'' model, though she is much more complex and detailed.

==Notes==
[[File:Movie scale chart.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|In the time before time...]]
===Single Arcee===
*Arcee was originally going to be a member of the live-action movie's Autobot cast, but was later replaced by [[Ironhide (Movie)|Ironhide]]. According to screenwriter [[Roberto Orci]], they would have needed to explain the point behind female robots, which there wasn't any time for in the movie.<ref>[https://www.ign.com/articles/2007/07/02/exclusive-interview-robert-orci?page=3 Roberto Orci explaining the reasons for Arcee's removal from the script in an interview with IGN.]</ref> Oddly enough, there was no attempt to do so when she debuted in ''Revenge of the Fallen''. By the time of ''Bumblebee'' and ''Rise of the Beasts'', no comment is made on her gender either, the concept of [[female Transformer]]s having long since become a common, accepted part of the franchise; as well as the film industry and general audience now being open to virtually any concept put to film compared to the movie landscape of 2007.
*In another interview, Alex Kurtzman cited "scale issues" as an additional reason for dropping Arcee; allegedly, Michael Bay simply considered her too small as compared to the rest of the Autobots.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20070714214451/http://www.wizarduniverse.com/movies/transformersmovie/005082421.cfm?page=1 Wizard interview with Kurtzman and Orci]</ref> The Arcee that appears in ''Rise of the Beasts'' is almost as small as she was planned to be in the 2007 film, but she isn't completely dwarfed this time as the other Autobots are scaled down compared to the 2007 roster.
*As part of [[BotCon 2007]]'s Hasbro tour, fans viewed "Robot Scale Chart v03", dated 11.22.05, which showed Arcee's height as 9' (2.7m). However, all of the designs on this chart were very early and later heavily revised (though [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]] was revised far less than the others).
*It's commonly assumed that Arcee's big part in the movie would have been the scene in which [[William Lennox]] starts his solo assault on [[Blackout (Movie)|Blackout]] using an abandoned motorcycle. However, the screenwriters rejected that notion, stating that this scene wasn't written until ''after'' Arcee had already been dropped from the script—but if she ''had'' remained in the movie, that scene ''would'' have probably featured her as the motorcycle.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/2288318-post539.html Orci once again clearing up the story between Arcee and the motorcycle Lennox uses during the final battle]</ref>
*Arcee came close to being killed off in ''[[Transformers: The Reign of Starscream|The Reign of Starscream]]'', as the trade states that two revisions of the plot had her dying.
*Arcee was the host of a "Lonely Hearts" letter column in the Titan comic's [[letters page]].
[[File:BB-Arcee-model.jpg|thumb|upright=0.85|Ok, her legs were too skinny before, but now we're exaggerating..]]
*Arcee's Cybertronian design in ''Bumblebee'' is heavily inspired by her Generation 1 [[Arcee (G1)|namesake]].

===Arcee triplets===
[[File:ROTFConceptArceeCombinerDVD.jpg|thumb|upright=0.85|So apparently Chromia and Elita-1 were green and silver at some point? Okay.]]
*It's not especially clear whether ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Arcee is one consciousness controlling three bodies, or three separate individuals. Writer [[Roberto Orci]] explained that she was written as a singular entity, but that [[Michael Bay]] "kept them as individuals".<ref>[http://transformerslive.blogspot.com/2009/07/ask-orci-final-edition.html Roberto Orci answers questions on the Transformers Live blogspot, July 13, 2009.]</ref> If this was Bay's intention, it does not particularly come across in the movie (as the trio doesn't really ''do'' anything), beyond perhaps Arcee referring to her components in the plural form in one instance. The novelization of the film adheres to the script's intent, describing Arcee as a "[[Multi-component Transformer|Tripartite Cybertronian]]", while the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' toyline chose instead to identify Arcee as only ''one'' of the bikes (the pink/red one), and characterize the other two as the separate characters [[Chromia (ROTF)|Chromia]] and [[Elita-One (Movie)|Elita-1]], who were characterised as Arcee's sisters.
**IDW Publishing's ''[[Transformers: Tales of the Fallen|Tales of the Fallen]]'' mini-series, complimented a few years later by ''[[Transformers: Rising Storm|Rising Storm]]'', goes to some lengths to marry the two concepts, depicting Arcee, Elita-1 and Chromia as a trio of robots animated by one spark, sharing thoughts and feelings but still possessing some degree of autonomy from one another.
**[[Titan Books|Titan]]'s comics, on the other hand, depict Arcee as having three bodies in their comic strips (sometimes even forgetting about ''that'' and drawing her in her original first movie toyline body), only to have their letters pages make the contradictory claims that a) they ''were'' separate robots who aren't related and Arcee's just the only one namechecked, and b) that ''nobody knows'' and that it depends "on who you ask".
**Hasbro's ''Dark of the Moon'' website adheres to the original idea for Arcee, identifying her as a "a single mind that operates three bodies". Further, it follows through on the events of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' by stating that two of her components were destroyed during the battle at Giza. That, of course, is in fairly complete contradiction to previous Hasbro bios that have Elita-One still operating in the post-movie [[Hunt for the Decepticons]] setting.
[[File:ROTFAnimaticBikerGroups.jpg|thumb|upright=0.85|SIX! SIX BIKE GIRLS! ah ha ha ha *sob*]]
*It seems that there were originally intended to have 5 or 6 motorcycles with at least 3 out of them would combine into a singular, larger robot in the film,<ref>[https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/transformers-concept-art-thread.1221724/page-72#post-22772327 ROTF preproduction concept art scale chart]</ref> but Michael Bay chose to drop the idea for fear of the confusion it would cause given how much else was already going on in the film.<ref>[http://www.siggraph.org/s2009/computer_animation_festival/sessions/details/?id=131 Q&A session with ILM effects supervisor Scott Farrar at Siggraph 2009]</ref> The idea evidently remained until comparatively late in production; both an unknown designer (see right) and [[Steve Jung]] [http://web.archive.org/web/20160323144936/http://stevejung.net/gallery/displayimage.php?album=4&pos=0 created a model] for the combined robot, and it appears in both the film's novelization and in the animatic for the Shanghai battle scene included on the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' DVD.
**The animatics of the Shanghai battle scene included on the ROTF DVD supports this as the "Lamborghini Jump" animatic depicts a trio of three female motorcycle Transformers (two red, one either silver or black) chasing Sideways, similar to the scene with Arcee and her compatriots as it appears in the final film. However, as the animatic continues, at least two of the bike-girls jump on Sideways in mid-pursuit, who he manages to throw off and into a building by swerving. Sideways is then confronted by ''another'' trio of bikes (pink, yellow and blue), who merge into a single robot and flip towards him, only to inexplicably disappear immediately afterwards.
**A vestigial reference to the combination even exists in the finished Arcee, Chromia and Elita-1 toys in the form of a fold-out tab on each that allows them to link up back-to-back. Despite claims made by Hasbro that instructions for the trio's combined form would be made available online, the eventual relegation of Elita to a simple redeco of Chromia neutralized any real chance of the figures attaining any true combination capability, though this was returned to in ''Studio Series''.
**The combined form of the ''Studio Series'' toy appears to be based on [[:File:Rotf-scale-autobots2-1-.jpg|concept art used in the Autobot scale chart]] that appeared on the film's second DVD, rather than any of the other concepts that can be found online.
*The toy [[bio]] for ''Revenge of the Fallen''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s other motorbike Autobot [[Knock Out (ROTF)|Knock Out]] seems to refer to Arcee's change in form between the first and second movie toylines, claiming that he wants to undergo the new "combiner retrofit" he's been hearing about, strongly implying that Arcee underwent the same process. The absence of Arcee's combined mode from the film and IDW's own later explanation for her change in form never matched this implication, though.
*At some point between the film and the concept art stages of ''Revenge of the Fallen'', Arcee's body was flipped horizontally; this resulted in all of her toys (at the time) being based on the concept art, making them inaccurate to her appearance in the film. Many years later, the ''Studio Series'' toy would correct this to be more in line with her CGI model used in the film.
*While ''Revenge of the Fallen'' is wholly apathetic on whether or not the shots that take down Arcee are fatal, Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman would later claim that all three Arcee components were killed<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-movie-discussion/274058-dvd-blu-ray-commentary-4.html#post4226117 DVD/Blu-Ray Commentary - Page 4 - TFW2005 - The 2005 Boards]</ref> at the behest of director Michael Bay.<ref>[https://www.mtv.com/news/1608508/michael-bay-reveals-transformers-revenge-of-the-fallen-death/ Michael Bay Reveals 'Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen' Death]</ref> IDW's comics ignored this and continued to feature the three sisters in ''Rising Storm''.
**[[Harold Attinger|Attinger]]'s playing card of Arcee lists her as "deceased", indicating that Orci and Kurtzman's claim has been supported. Of course, said card uses an image of Elita-1.

===Generation 1 cartoon continuity===
====''The Transformers'' cartoon====
[[File:FullTiltAlt.jpg|upright=.66|thumb|Space is cold, okay?]]
Full-Tilt was Trypticon's chestplate. He was also a door. {{storylink|Call of the Primitives}}

====Japanese cartoon continuity====
=====''Legends'' comic=====
Full-Tilt served as Trypticon's black box, containing backup data that allowed the Decepticons to recreate the dinosaur should he be destroyed. After such a thing passed in Metroplex and Trypticon's first battle, Full-Tilt was recovered by [[Thrust (G1)|Thrust]] and [[Ramjet (G1)|Ramjet]]. In [[2010]], the [[Constructicon (G1)|Constructicons]] converted a [[human]] city into a new Trypticon, which Full-Tilt interfaced with. Trypticon survived till [[2015]], where he was defeated by [[Swerve (G1)|Swerve]], [[Tailgate (G1)|Tailgate]], and [[Rattrap (BW)|Rattrap]]. In the aftermath, Full-Tilt was rescued by the [[Battlecharger]]s.

[[File:Legends 44 Fulltilt.jpg|thumb|left]]
Years later, Full-Tilt was integrated into a smaller Trypticon commanded by [[Violengiguar]]. This Trypticon would be destroyed by [[Dai Atlas (G1)|Dai Atlas]], leaving only Full-Tilt's [[personality component]], which fell into the hands of the [[Race Track Patrol]]. It was brought to the [[Metrosquad]], who modified the component into a small robot in the hopes that he could be used to recreate Trypticon again. When [[Weirdwolf (G1)|Weirdwolf]] desired to do so, he brought Full-Tilt to the [[Legends World]], where a [[transtector]] awaited the small robot. {{storylink|LG-43 Trypticon Project Chapter}}

With data from [[Godbomber]], Weirdwolf's faction of Decepticons were able to construct a new Trypticon at the bottom of Tokyo Bay. To enable transformation, however, they needed a [[Transformation cog (biology)|transformation cog]], and so attacked [[Metroplex (G1)|Metroplex]] for his. Despite resistance from [[Scamper]] and the employees of the [[Tera-Kura Co.|Decepticon-Tera-Kura Company]], Full-Tilt was able to steal the cog and bring it to Trypticon. The giant then emerged from the bay as Full-Tilt yelled triumphantly. {{Storylink|LG43 Trypticon Mobilization Chapter: Decepticon Civil War|Decepticon Civil War}} As Trypticon made his way towards Metroplex to destroy him, Full-Tilt was ordered to stay out of battle as his data was too important, and he instead controlled Trypticon's transformations. When they reached [[Akihabara]], Full-Tilt and his transtector both interfaced with the dinosaur, uploading the backup data and fully restoring him. However, Trypticon was ultimately defeated by Swerve and Metroplex and repurposed as a nerd paradise while Akihabara was being rebuilt, leaving Full-Tilt furious. {{storylink|LG43 Trypticon}} He was further distressed when Trypticon was purchased by [[Misfire (G1)|Misfire]]. {{storylink|LG52 Targetmaster Misfire}} Trypticon was later destroyed by [[Majin Zarak]], though Full-Tilt survived intact once again. {{storylink|Targetmaster Chapter Finale: Legends World in Imminent Danger!

====''The Story of Super Robot Lifeforms: The Transformers''====
[[File:Manga3 fulltilt daizyujin.jpg|thumb|left|Back in the bottle wit' ye, o' wicked woman!]]
In the year 2010, [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Ultra Magnus]] figured it would be really cool to show a bunch of [[human]] children around [[Autobot City (G1)|Autobot City]]. The children were having a grand ole time until [[Galvatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Galvatron]] arrived with Trypticon in tow.

To meet the threat of Trypticon, Magnus transformed Autobot City into [[Metroplex (G1)|Metroplex]], who was quickly injured by Trypticon's Dual Plasma Cannons. Magnus then ordered [[Scamper]] into the fray, but Scamper was immediately defeated once Galvatron launched Full-Tilt from Trypticon's chest. Full-Tilt, apparently very overconfident, threatened to make scrap out of everyone.

As Trypticon continued to pound the oil out of Metroplex, Ultra Magnus ordered another City Warrior into action, [[Six-Gun]]! Before Full-Tilt could administer the final blow with [[Brunt (G1)|Brunt]], Six-Gun took him by surprise... ''punching him in the face''. (Six-Gun apparently prefers melee combat despite being made ''entirely out of guns''.) Six-Gun then took control of Brunt and blasted Trypticon in the chest, injuring him enough to force Galvatron to call a retreat.

The children rejoiced. {{storylink|The Story of Super Robot Lifeforms: The Transformers issue 3|The Story of Super Robot Lifeforms: The Transformers #3}}

[[File:MegOrig02 full-tilt woot.jpg|thumb|120px|Megatron, marry me!]]
Full-Tilt attended the underground [[gladiatorial combat]] matches in [[Kaon (polity)|Kaon]]'s [[Forge (arena)|Forge]]. He saw [[Megatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Megatron]] totally ''impale'' [[Cy-Kill (G1)|Cy-Kill]] with his sword, then work him over with his mining vehicle mode. But what ''really'' brought the house down was when Megatron used a pick to deliver the coup de grâce, then take off his helmet to let his long, luxurious hair flow in the wind. Full-Tilt was absolutely ''nuts'' for that, he was all like—"''Yaaa!''" and pumping his fist in the air. {{storylink|Megatron Origin issue 2|Megatron Origin #2}}

===''Beast Wars: Uprising''===
[[File:Intersectionality 4 of 5.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.0|Thank [[Jim Sorenson|you]] for not forgetting me!]]
Full-Tilt enjoyed a long friendship and partnership with his [[Titan (group)|Megamaster]] counterpart Trypticon during the war. As the war came to a conclusion following the [[Great Push]], Trypticon was badly injured. Full-Tilt volunteered for a variation on the [[Powermaster]] technology, incorporating himself physically into Trypticon's body to act as a replacement for the city-bot's [[Transformation cog (biology)|transformation cog]].

After the war, Trypticon remained in starship mode and was rechristened the ''[[Dinosaur (ship)|Dinosaur]]''. Full-Tilt became captain of his old friend, the [[Builder of Cybertron|Builder]]-in-command of a crew of [[Maximal]] officers and [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]] enlisted soldiers, under the supervision of [[Micromaster]] political officer, [[Synapse (BWU)|Synapse]]. The ''Dinosaur'' patrolled the [[Allowed Zone]], the area on the outskirts of Cybertronian space which the [[Human Confederacy]] maintained as strict border guards following the Great Push.

Full-Tilt came to respect his crew over time, but Trypticon did not. The Megamaster became bitter and hated the smaller Cybertronians for their mobility and transforming ability. When the [[Grand Uprising]] began on Cybertron, Synapse killed the communications specialist [[Hydra (BW)|Hydra]] in order to keep it a secret. When he moved on to killing the inquisitive intelligence specialist [[Killer Punch]], Full-Tilt objected, but Synapse convinced Trypticon to side with him and they cut the captain off from access to the ship.

Thinking the captain was responsible for their fallen crewmates, Chief Engineer [[Magmatron]] and Senior Security Specialist [[Guiledart]] fought their way into his quarters, only to find the immobilized Full-Tilt willing to offer whatever help he could. The ship had come under attack by the evil Destructons, and so Magmatron and his junior engineer [[Dead End (BW)|Dead-End]] worked to repair the ship while simultaneously disabling Trypticon's mind. Full-Tilt was reconnected to the ship in order to help stop Trypticon from attacking the crew.

Trypticon and Synapse were eventually dealt with, but the ship was too badly damaged and was falling out of orbit. Instead of escaping the planet's gravity, Full-Tilt and Magmatron fought for a controlled descent, and transformed Trypticon on impact to slow their progress. Full-Tilt reconfigured the lobotomized Trypticon into Dinosaur City, and many of the surviving crew and their allies on the planet remained to transform it into a new colony. {{storylink|Intersectionality}}

====Decepticon story====
After [[Springer (G1)|Springer]] was defeated for the second time, Trypticon arrived and offered to help, but quickly realized that he was of extremely limited usefulness in the search for the [[Zel Quartz]], an incredibly powerful energy source. His massive size (even though he was only about the size of combiners like [[Predaking (G1)|Predaking]], [[Computron (G1)|Computron]] and [[Raiden]]) made him a liability in a search, so he sent Full-Tilt in his stead.

**''Accessories:'' Large tower, small tower, 2 tank treads, laser cannon, Full-Tilt

:A snap-together model kit of Trypticon was available as part of the fifth wave of [[Kabaya]]'s ''[[Transformers Gum]]'' [[candy toy]] series. A much-shrunken version of the original Trypticon toy, the kit transforms into something of a cross between city and battle station modes, and still comes with all the pieces to make Brunt, as well as a non-transforming car mode Full-Tilt. Molded from black, red, and grey plastic, Trypticon has stickers for detail rather than paint operations, and came with a stick of gum.

'''Optimus Prime''' is a bit of a shill.
==Stamp Bot==
[[File:OptimusPrime-StampBot-1984.JPG|thumb|Truck stamp is cool!]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (1984)
:Made by [[HG Toys]], Stamp Bot Optimus Prime is a small, non-poseable figurine of Optimus Prime based on his toy with a rubber stamp on the base, and a cap with a felt "floor" that was soaked in ink. The stamp made an image of Optimus Prime's cab mode.
{{-}}

==The Transformers Cookie Jar==
*'''The Transformers Cookie Jar''' (1984?)
:A ceramic cookie jar in the likeness of Optimus Prime's head. The top of Prime's head lifts off for the storage of delicious baked goods or Energon or what-have-you. The cookie jar was manufactured by [[Great American Housewares]] under license from [[Hasbro]].

==Collegeville Costumes==
{{anchor|CollegevilleG1}}
*'''Optimus Prime''' (1984)
:Although [[Collegeville Costumes]] only released a small number of Transformers [[Halloween]] costumes, and made some odd choices for characters to depict in the process, Optimus Prime was an obvious choice as one of their first releases. The costume consists of a thin plastic facemask based directly on the Optimus toy's head complete with yellow eyes, and an orange and yellow plastic smock decorated not with the details of Optimus' body, but with his package art and the Transformers logo.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (1993)
{{anchor|CollegevilleG2}}
:Optimus Prime recieved a second costume from Collegeville for their line of ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (franchise)|Transformers: Generation 2]]'' line. As with the 1984 Collegeville costume, it consists of a thin plastic mask held on by elastic. Unlike the previous costume, the plastic smock is now decorated with the details of Optimus' G2 body, as well as having his name and the G2 logo on it.

==Vehicle Play Tent==
[[File:Vehicleplaytent.jpg|thumb|Both a big truck ''and'' a series of tubes.]]
*'''ERO''' (1984?)
:The Vehicle Play Tent was part of the deluge of Transformers merchandise in the 80s. The tent was constructed by means of a series of plastic tubes that fit into sockets on corner pieces (similar to the "k'nex" building system that arrived a few years later), then a vinyl cover was slipped over this PVC skeleton to make the tent.
{{-}}

==Oral Care Station==
*'''Optimus Prime Oral Care Station''' (1984/85?)
:An electric toothbrush in the likeness of Optimus Prime. A battery-operated feature causes the toothbrush (attached at Prime's left wrist) to move back and forth. The set also included a cup for [[water]], an extra brush head, and a stand to hold the various accoutrements.

==Transformers Milk Caramel==
[[File:Tfcaramel optimus prime.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Note: Do not eat! ... the candy. The toys taste better.]]
*'''Convoy''' (1985)
**''ID number:'' '''1'''
:A small soft-rubber figurine (known as a ''keshigomu'' in Japan) of Optimus Prime was released as part of [[Kabaya]]'s line of ''[[Transformers Milk Caramel]]'' [[candy toy]]s. Like all the figures from the 1985 range, Prime came blindpacked, and was available in a variety of colors including white, blue, yellow, green and orange. As the name of the series suggests, he came with a piece of caramel candy.

*'''Convoy''' (1985)
**''ID number:'' '''1'''
:A second Optimus Prime ''keshigomu'' was included in the second wave of ''Milk Caramel'' figures, sporting some broader proportions and more toy-based design cues like visible wheels, holding its gun in its left hand, rather than its right. This figure was available in red, yellow and blue variations; a baffling variant is known to exist with a ''Decepticon'' symbol on its left shoulder!

*'''Convoy''' (1985)
**''ID number:'' '''2'''
:The second ''Milk Caramel'' wave also contained a third Optimus Prime figure, largely identical to the second, except with its gun in its right hand, and holding its left arm aloft. Again, this figure was available in red, yellow and blue variations.
{{-}}

==Transformers Choco==
[[File:Tfchoco optimusprime.jpg|thumb]]
*'''Convoy''' (1985)
:A small solid-color snap-together model kit of Optimus Prime was released by Kabaya as part of their ''[[Transformers Choco]]'' line, coming packaged with small chocolate candies similar to [[M&M's]] called "Chocolate Dots". The kit can transform from robot to vehicle mode, though this version of Prime doesn't have any hands.

*'''Convoy''' (1985)
**''Accessories:'' Two fists
:A second ''Choco'' version of Prime was upsized from the first a little, and was given a pair of removable fists, the right one clutching Prime's [[ion blaster]].
{{-}}

==Transformers Gum==
[[File:Tfgum optimusprime.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66]]
*'''Convoy''' (1985, 1997)
**''Accessories:'' Two fists, ion blaster
:In addition to the small ''Choco'' model kit, Kabaya also released a larger version of Prime under their ''[[Transformers Gum]]'' line. Essentially a downsized version of the original Prime toy (sans trailer), the kit is sculpted from black, red, and grey plastic, features stickers rather than paint applications for details, and came with a stick of gum.

:This kit was reissued in 1997 by might-or-might-not-be official Transformers licensee [[ToonTown]] in [[South Korea]] (possibly, in a 2-pack with a reissue of ''Transformers Gum'' [[Soundwave (G1)/merchandise#Transformers Gum|Soundwave]] <ref>[http://fuwakudou.web.fc2.com/prisoners06.html One source] mentions obtaining two boxes of the ToonTown ''Transformers Gum'' releases with each containing two kits - the one numbered #1 featuring Optimus Prime and Soundwave and the one numbered #2 featuring Sideswipe and Starscream - but considering that none of the other (albeit admittedly very few) sources that discuss these kits mention a similar arrangement, it is possible that this was either a packing mistake or simply already-opened boxes being sold on the secondary market with two loose kits stuffed into them (the article does not specify whether or not the boxes they obtained were sealed, although they do look new-ish in the provided pictures). Still, considering how very little information exists regarding these releases in general, it will nonetheless be noted here that these kits ''might'' have been released as 2-packs at some point.</ref>), looking mostly identical save for a set of cheaper-looking paper decals.

[[File:Tfgum2010 g1prime.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|My limbs need to be horribly mutilated and rearranged to change forms!]]
*'''Convoy''' (2010)
**''Accessories:'' Ion blaster
:The first wave of 2010's revival of the ''Transformers Gum'' series served up a double dose of Prime, beginning with this new model kit of the original Generation 1 version of the character. Sculpted from white, red, and blue plastic, the kit features a positively ''ungodly'' amount of stickers to make it look presentable and comes with Prime's traditional ion blaster weapon, which stores on the rear of his cab in vehicle mode.

:In terms of transformation, Convoy partially [[partformer|partforms]], as the forearms are needed to be removed and attach it back during conversion.
{{-}}

[[File:Tfgum2010 henkei prime.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|So do mine!]]
*'''Convoy''' (2010)
**''Accessories:'' Smokestacks/laser cannon
{{toydesigner|[[Naoto Tsushima]] (packaging artist)}}

:The second Prime figure in the 2010 ''Gum'' line was this kit of his ''[[Transformers: Classics|Classics]]''/''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (franchise)|Henkei! Henkei!]]'' body. As with the Generation 1 model, this figure is made from white, red and blue plastic and uses ''lots'' of stickers. It comes with the ''Classics''' figure's transforming smokestack/laser cannon weapon.

:Much like his aforementioned G1 self, his arms also need to be partformed into robot mode.
{{-}}

[[File:Tfgum2014_g1starconvoy.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|But not mine!]]
*'''Star Convoy''' (2014)
**''Accessories:'' Cannon, Roller/ treads, car mode Hot Rodimus

:Released as part of the 8th wave of Kabaya's 2009 series of standard model kits, Star Convoy is a snap-together model kit that can transform into a futuristic big rig. Like the full-sized Star Convoy toy, this model kit can assume a battle station mode and also includes a diminutive and non-transformable Hot Rodimus in car mode that can interact with the base mode ramps. Like most other Kabaya model kits, Star Convoy has no paint applications and relies on stickers for added details.

:Owing to the original toy's simple engineering, Star Convoy does not require any disassembly to transform into robot mode, making him one of the few non-partforming Kabaya figures. He does, however, need to have his Microcarrier wheel base detached (which was also an option on the original toy) to fully access a significant improvement over his older self: some newly-added leg articulation! The Microcarrier also doubles as a shield that can be attached to the robot's left arm.
{{-}}

==Hero Set==
*'''Convoy''' (1985)
**''ID number:'' '''01'''
**''Accessories:'' Laser rifle
:A large ''keshigomu'' of Optimus Prime was produced by TakaraTomy licensee [[Maruka Toys]]. Packaged on a blister card, the static, unposeable Prime figure came with a removable laser rifle, and featured a few small stickers for colour and detail. Maruka also produced a Megatron figure in the same scale, and both Prime and he were available in red, yellow or green.
{{-}}

==Decoy==
[[File:Decoy optimus prime.jpg|thumb]]
*'''Cybertron Hero Collection 22''' (multi-pack, 1986)
*'''Defeat Trypticon Strategy Game''' (board game, 1986)
:Optimus Prime was among the many characters rendered by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] as part of their series of 1.5" ''keshigomu'' figurines. Like all the Autobots in the series, Prime was molded in soft red rubber, and featured a number sculpted into his back that was the sum total of his [[Tech Spec]]s, for use in the various games that could be played with the figurines. Prime was available as part of a 22-piece box set of Autobot figures, as a playing piece in the Defeat Trypticon Strategy Game, and later, in a peach coloration randomly packed as part of various other box sets.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (1987)
**''Checklist number:'' '''31'''
:The Prime figurine was later brought over to [[Hasbro]] markets as part of the "[[Decoy (G1)|Decoy]]" promotion, largely identical to the Japanese release except for the fact that the number on his back was replaced with a simple "checklist" number (31, in Prime's case). Like all Autobot Decoys, he was a randomly-chosen pack-in available with the carded [[Throttlebot]]s, [[Aerialbot (G1)|Aerialbots]], [[Protectobot (G1)|Protectobots]] and [[Technobot (G1)|Technobots]].

==Knitting Pattern==
[[File:Transformers-knitting-pattern.JPG|thumb|Here to transform your sweater into something that will get your ass kicked.]]
*'''Wendy DK 3015''' (1986)
: Produced by U.K. company [[Wendy DK]] and designed by [[Joy Gammon]], this pamphlet contained patterns for two ''Transformers''-themed sweaters, one featuring Optimus Prime in robot mode, one featuring Optimus Prime in vehicle mode. The patterns were sized as Children's Large, so you're going to have to upscale it quite a bit if you want your <s>girlfriend</s> mom to knit you one.
{{-}}

==Vinyl figurine==
[[File:Optimus Prime Vinyl Figure set.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Vinyl Prime leads his decoys into battle [[Action Master|before the great storm]].]]
*'''Scramble Gun Set''' (1986)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''Part.1'''
:Optimus Prime was one of several characters released by [[Seven]] and Takara as large vinyl figurines in a variety of different novelty sets. Prime came packaged with a roleplay pistol (the titular "Scramble Gun"), an Autobot badge, and four randomly assigned peach-colored decoy figures. In [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/merchandise#Vinyl figurine|"Part.2"]] of the set Prime is replaced by a vinyl Ultra Magnus.{{-}}

==Gold Convoy Trophy==
[[File:Gold Convoy Trophy.jpg|thumb|Thou will worship this golden convoy. Or Perish!]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (trophy, 1988)
:A gold chrome trophy in the likeness of Optimus Prime was given as an award to an unknown number of distinguished [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] employees and as a [[Lucky Draw figure|Lucky Draw]] (alongside the [[Chromedome (G1)|Silver Chromedome Trophy]]) in [[TV Magazine]] in 1988. The two different releases have different plaques but appear to be otherwise identical. If you're an Optimus Prime merchandise completist, good bloody luck finding this one.
{{-}}

==''Generation 2''==
*'''Optimus Prime''' (Dairy Queen promotion, 1994)
[[File:DairyQueen Optimus.jpg|thumb|Rare, in a raw chicken sort of way.]]
:Released in Dairy Queen's 'Kid's Pick-Nic!' meals in 1994, this hunk of red and blue plastic is the first known Optimus Prime kids' meal toy and also probably the worst, sporting no transformation and zero articulation of any sort, with an included sticker sheet for detailing that doesn't particularly resemble any iteration of the character.

:These can be pretty hard to find, owing to their limited distribution compared to the average fast food promotion. Being pretty forgettable as toys probably didn't help either, if we're being honest.
{{-}}

*'''Optimus Prime Inflatable Bop Bag'''
[[File:OptimusPrime_G2_Inflatable_Bop_Bag.jpg|thumb|At last, merchandise for Decepticons!]]
:Released in 1993 by Kid Dimension, a subsidiary of Hasbro,<ref>[http://www.fundinguniverse.com/company-histories/hasbro-inc-history/]</ref> this 3 foot tall Inflatable Bop Bag featured the likeness of Optimus Prime above the Transformers Generation 2 logo. Supposedly to encourage kids to punch out Optimus Prime?
{{-}}

===ToonTown===
{{note|There's a longstanding debate on whether the obscure Korean-exclusive [[ToonTown]] figures and merchandise, allegedly released under official Hasbro licensing according to their packaging, are actually legitimate Transformers products or just bootlegs with fraudulent copyright information. Although there isn't a clear consensus from collectors and no statement from Hasbro on this matter as of {{CURRENTYEAR}}, we have nonetheless chosen to cover them here for the sake of archival and posterity.}}

[[File:Midam-Prime.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Maybe a licensed product, maybe a bootleg. Maybe it's in our definition of "toy," maybe it's "merchandise." ToonTown needs a {{w|Eddie Valiant|detective}}!]]
{{anchor|MidamIndustry}}
<ul class="iconlist">{{Bp-a2|'''Optimus Prime''' (Model kit, 1997)}}</ul>
:*''Accessories'': Blaster, left & right fists
: Notoriously odd [[South Korea]]n company ToonTown licensed the ''Transformers'' brand to model kit manufacturer [[ToonTown#Items released by Midam Industry|Midam Industry]], which in turn put out this surprisingly detailed and robust kit of the original Generation 1 Optimus Prime figure. It is fully transformable and about 3/4ths the size of the original toy. He does not feature his trailer, and his weapon design is substantially different from either of his classic blasters.

: Three color morphs have been found so far: original red arms and torso with blue head and legs, a mirrored version with red head and legs and a blue torso and arms, and one with all the aforementioned parts in blue.<ref>Reviews for a [https://m.blog.naver.com/eoiipp/130144214329 "standard"-colored Midam Optimus kit], an [https://blog.naver.com/parang16/20041871808 "inverted"-colored Midam Optimus kit], and an [https://blog.naver.com/nckim/70101680088 all-blue-colored Midam Optimus kit] on blog.naver.com</ref> This suggests that the colors which make up the two batch of parts might be randomized between blue and red, and as such; an as-of-now undocumented all-red version might also exist. All of his versions also have their chrome parts painted in metallic gold, a common oddity across ToonTown Primes as seen in the previous LALA figure.

: The figure comes with a batch of rather weird stickers, with text on his license plate and the sides of his truck mode that refers to him as "[[gbwiki:Dump Robo|Dump Robo]]".
{{-}}

[[File:LALA-PrimePencilCase.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Pope Leo XIV might have been selected on the
day that this image was uploaded, but pencil case Optimus might be the holiest thing that I've seen all day, hahaha... I'm going to hell, aren't I?]]
*'''LALA Pencil Case''' (1997)
:Possibly one of the most majestically quirky pieces of merchandise to have graced any Transformers character ever, this incredible pencil case from ToonTown licensee [[ToonTown#Items released by LALA|LALA]] is generally based around the design and transformation of the original Generation 1 Optimus Prime toy, but with ''a lot'' more than meets the eye to it: on top of being fully transformable from his robot mode to (an albeit rather flat) truck mode, he folds open to reveal space for the storage of several pencils and/or pens of your choosing, as well as including printed stickers for a time table and an address book, a drawer for the storage of extra school supplies, and a hidden thermometer that's revealed by lowering his head!

:Pencils can be attached to his shoulders to imitate his smokestacks, and his fists, which are removable for the transformation like in the original toy? They're erasers! Gah, how can an obscure, maybe even potentially fake piece of merchandise from 1990s South Korea have this much soul and creativity put into it! The fists can even be stored below the truck's front portion in vehicle mode, guaranteeing that you never lose them.

:He also includes a sticker sheet and a small 20cm ruler, featuring packaging art of himself plus ''Generation 2'' [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]], [[Sideswipe (G1)|Sideswipe]], and [[Ramjet (G1)|Ramjet]], as well as pictures of their respective LALA eraser versions (the one for Optimus coming right up).
{{-}}

*'''Eraser''' (1997)
:Another piece of merchandise from ToonTown licensee LALA, this eraser also doubles as a small simple model kit, with his large colored bits being the "eraser" portion and the remainder of the toy being constituted of grey plastic parts that are assembled together. He transforms from robot to vehicle and back by [[Partformer|partforming]] his individual components.

:Although the advertisements and aforementioned ruler (as well as the few copies that we know of) feature his eraser bits in pink, it is possible that he might have also been released in bright green, as other LILA erasers that also show up as pink in promotional images have been found with this color instead.
{{-}}
*'''Watch''' (1997)
:Yet another LALA product, this Optimus Prime watch "transforms" by folding out of its compressed half-form and standing up as a simple fully-fledged little robot. His chest opens to reveal the titular watch. Said chest, along with his head, have an unusual gold chrome deco (a commonality across a handful of ToonTown products), and the box art is painted accordingly to reflect this.
{{-}}

==''Metalforce''==
[[File:MetalforceConvoy.jpg|thumb|I'm expensive! ''(Metallic Version Pictured)'']]
*'''Convoy''' (1999/2000)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MFC-01'''
**''Accessories:'' Ion Blaster, Autobot Matrix of Leadership, alternate hand, unpainted rifle, Matrix, helmet and hand

:''Metalforce'' Convoy is a large vinyl figurine produced by [[Time House]] sculpted to very closely resemble Optimus Prime as he appeared in the original television series, and at the time was the most accurate product depiction of Optimus Prime's cartoon appearance.

:The figure has useful swivel joints at the shoulders and neck, and not-so-useful ones at the wrists and knees. It comes fully painted and pre-assembled, but true to his garage figure origins his Ion blaster must be cut free using a hobby knife, then assembled. His clear blue chest window piece is removable to allow the installation of his [[Matrix of Leadership/toys|Matrix of Leadership]], as is a ''[[The Transformers: The Movie|Movie]]''-style Matrix cover (not pictured). He also comes with an alternate hand that allows him to hold his accessories, as well as unpainted and uncut duplicates of his Matrix, hands, and helmet, which probably meant for those who wanted to duplicate them with resin and/or wish to modify/paint them...you know how garage kit modellers do.

:Metalforce Prime was available in both a matte-paint "anime" version that more precisely echoed the colors of the actual series, and a metallic-paint version (pictured), which is less [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]] but more shiny. The plain-colors version was the first release and have an Autobot symbol tampograph on his shoulder as per [[The Transformers (cartoon)|the cartoon]], while the later metallic-finish version instead came with a decal sheet.

{{-}}

==''Choro-Q''==
*'''Convoy''' (2000)

:''[[Choro-Q]]'' Convoy is a [[redeco]] of the Domra Truck toy from Takara's ''Choro-Q'' toyline of non-transforming [[super deformed]] vehicles. He was an [[exclusive]] at [[BotCon]] Japan 2000, and features a [[pull-back motor]] and a rear license plate that reads "BotCon Japan 2000".

:Along with ''Choro-Q'' [[Mirage (G1)|Ligier]] and [[Megatron (G1)/toys|Megatron]], Convoy was given out randomly to convention attendees. Each toy was limited to 1000 pieces.

: A three-inch tall [[plastic|PVC]] figurine of Optimus Prime was available as part of the first wave of [[TakaraTomy|Takara]]'s ''[[Heroes of Cybertron (toyline)|Super Collection Figure]]'' line. Like all the figures in the wave, it was available as both a standard full color figure and a clear plastic version, one of each of which was available in a standard case of twelve [[blindpacking|blindpacked]] figures.

: It was ''presumably'' released at a ratio of one per every ten cases; while this has not been officially confirmed, later waves gave these odds for Secret Figures.

:Part of the second ''Super Collection Figure'' act, this is the only ''SCF'' figure of a vehicle mode Transformer. As with the previous non-chase Prime figure, it was available as both a standard full color figure and a clear plastic version, one of each of which was available in a standard case of twelve blindpacked figures.

: Unlike every other figure in the line (excluding build-a-figures), this one does ''not'' come with a figure stand, because... well, what would be the point?

:There was no mass-release Optimus Prime figure for the third ''Super Collection Figure'' act, but there was another rare chase figure, this time a battle-damaged version of the original figure from the first act, referencing his injuries from ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''.

: Again, it was ''probably'' released in one out of every ten cases. He replaced the clear version of [[Bumblebee (G1)/merchandise#Super Collection Figure|Bumblebee]] in the case.

*'''Convoy (B)''' (2001)
**''Act'': '''4'''
**''Accessories'': Stand

:For the fourth ''Super Collection Figure'' wave, Prime was rendered weaponless, speaking into the open communication panel on his left arm. Like all the figures in the fourth wave, Prime was available in both standard full color and metallic silver "pewter" versions, one of each of which was available in a standard case of twelve blindpacked figures.

: Care should be taken when moving the joints of the pewter version, as is not uncommon for the connector pegs to have gotten painted as well, resulting in stuck limbs and tearing joints. Shaving the interior of the socket slightly with a hobby knife is usually sufficient to relieve the issue. (This holds true for all other pewter figures on this list, and in fact the entire dang line from here on.)

: In eight out of every ten cases, the pewter version of Prime came packaged with the left arm of the collectible [[Metroplex (G1)#Super Collection Figure|Metroplex]] build-a-figure; these parts were either in full color or clear-plastic, packed at an equal ratio of four out of eight cases.

:This version of Prime was a chase figure in the fifth ''Super Collection Figure'' act, and depicts the Autobot leader, rendered in metallic silver, opening the Matrix, referencing the end of "[[The Return of Optimus Prime, Part 2]]". This figure was packed in at a ''confirmed'' ratio of one per every ten cases.

:The sixth ''Super Collection Figure'' wave featured yet another mass-release version of Optimus. While this Optimus is wielding Megatron (using the same mold as the chase figure from the second Act), he has entirely new-mold arms, plus an interchangeable empty right fist. On top of that he was extensively redecoed: he's actually cast in different shades of light salmon plastic and heavily painted over in an overall darker, less saturated scheme, his normally-white parts now in medium-gray. His pec-windows are painted with a weird shiny dark blue that gives them a translucent look. The figure was available in both full color and pewter versions in an equal ratio.

: In eight out of every ten cases, the pewter version came with the head for the wave's [[Grand Maximus#Super Collection Figure|Grand Maximus]] build-a-figure, packed at a ratio of six color parts to two pewter per case.

==''Heroes of Cybertron''==
[[File:HOC Optimus.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Hey Spike, pull my finger.]]
*'''Optimus Prime''' (2002/2006)

: Part of the first wave of Hasbro's ''[[Heroes of Cybertron (toyline)#Heroes of Cybertron|Heroes of Cybertron]]'' series, Optimus is a [[redeco]] of the standard ''Super Collection Figure'' Optimus mold, with a ''slight'' [[retool]]ing to give him longer, thicker, rounded-off helmet antennae [[for safety reasons]]. Like all the standard ''Heroes'' figures, he is cast in transparent plastic, then painted over, save for the eyes and a small patch on the back of his head, giving him a [[light-piping]] gimmick. There are a few other small deco differences to the ''Heroes'' version, such as his helmet crest changing from white to gray.

: Optimus was re-released in 2006 as part of a short-lived ''Heroes of Cybertron'' revival, celebrating the 2006 DVD release of the original ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''. Cast in solid-white plastic rather than translucent blue, this makes him ''very'' similar to the original ''SCF'' toy, but he retained the thicker antennae, plus got some very minor paint changes on the head: his crest-vent went back to white, and oddly his eyes are white too, rather than the ''SCF'' version's chest-window light blue.

*'''Powermaster Optimus Prime Apex Armor''' (2002)

: An unexpected addition to the line, especially in the first wave next to another Optimus (see above), "Apex Armor" Optimus is a [[redeco]] of [[Ginrai (robot)#Super Collection Figure|God Ginrai]], the double-armored-up form of Optimus's ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers (franchise)|Super-God Masterforce]]'' lookalike [[Ginrai (robot)|Ginrai]]. There are a few small paint differences between God Ginrai and Apex Armor Prime (beyond the obvious "opaque vs clear-plastic base figure" thing, we mean), most notably that the many parts on God Ginrai that are darker unpainted gray plastic, like the thighs and side-panels/guns on the lower legs, have been painted the same light gray as the chest on Optimus.

: This is the first Hasbro-release depiction of Optimus in this mode, later backed up with the release of the full-fledged toy of [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#PMOP|Powermaster Optimus Prime]] with [[Apex Bomber]] the following year.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (2002)

:This second-wave ''Heroes of Cybertron'' release is a variation of the chase figure from the first ''Super Collection Figure'' wave, depicting Prime with his right hand replaced with his energy axe. This figure is a little different from its Japanese progenitor (beyond the "clear-plastic painted over" deal, of course), being painted in normal matte/gloss rather than metallic paint, and replacing the left "pointing" hand with the clenched fist of the later "communicator" version of Optimus. It also retains the ''Heroes'' molding alterations to Optimus's helmet.

: Oddly, he comes with the same collector card as the first version, and the packaging does not call out the energy weapon in any way. The card-back cross-sell even shows only the original Optimus. (The same happened to this wave's energy-weapon-wielding [[Megatron (G1)/merchandise#Heroes of Cybertron|Megatron]].)

{{toydesigner|[[Little IroN]] (concept artist), [["Mad" Alterton]] (sculptor), [[Leandro Sivori]] (painter)}}

:The first entry in the ''Transformers Battlefield'' line by model company [[First 4 Figures]], this 13-inch tall diorama depicts Optimus Prime slugging it out with Megatron. Optimus is posed as though doing a shoulder shove while holding his ion blaster, but a provided "REP" (Replaceable Exterior Part) hand allows buyers to instead recontexualise the pose as a spinning backhand slap. Megatron comes with a REP of a battle damaged version of his head, which features a detachable "helmet" to show off his exposed robo-brain.

:The model was limited to 1,850 pieces worldwide, and came with a numbered certificate of authenticity, which allowed buyers to reserve the same number on their next purchase in the series. It also came with an A4 mini-poster depicting the same fight between Optimus and Megatron by artist [[Little IroN]], which was also sold separately as a limited edition A2 poster.

:As a ''Transformers Battlefield'' release, this model featured a detailed base designed to interlock with others in the same range to create a massive battle diorama. Unfortunately, a general discontinuation of First 4 Figures' ''Transformers''-related output put the kibosh on any further ''Battlefield'' models.

**''Legacy of Revoltech ID number'': '''LR-008'''
**''Accessories:'' Ion blaster, Autobot Matrix of Leadership, two clenched fists, gun-wielding right hand, pointing right hand, open left hand

:A non-transforming but ''highly'' articulated Optimus Prime action figure, ''[[Revoltech]]'' Convoy uses the ''Revoltech'' "revolver joints" for maximum poseability. Prime comes with his now-standard ion blaster and Matrix of Leadership accessories, as well as a few alternate hands; while one of the hands is specifically designed to grip the ion blaster, he can't really do anything dramatic with the Matrix, and it just sort of sits in his open-palmed left hand. His sculpting is explicitly in the style of [[Pat Lee|Pat "serfdom" Lee]]'s interpretation of Prime, but due to physical constraints has no lack of perspective.

:Unsurprisingly, this mold was redecoed to create ''Revoltech'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/merchandise#Revoltech|Ultra Magnus]]. Magnus comes with a new hand mold that can be used to connect him and Prime together in a handshake.

:The initial reveal of the figure (sculpted by Yamaguchi) features swiveling cut joints instead of "revolver joints" (notably the hip parts), with a rather jarring angled joint on the waist (which results in a "sliced" appearance if swiveled).

:Unfortunately, ''Revoltech'' Convoy cannot be distributed to the US due to licensing restrictions, so fans must rely on online hobby shops to import him.

:In 2014, ''Revoltech'' Convoy was reissued as part of the ''Legacy of Revoltech'' line, with an increased price of 3900 yen. This rerelease uses revised Revoltech joints, which come in matte black instead of glossy and have more ratcheting points than previous releases.

:''Amazing Yamaguchi'' Convoy is an all-new take to the Revoltech figure above, but more poseable.

{{toydesigner|[[Akira Amemiya]] (concept artist)}}

:Released as part of the ''Furai Model'' line by [[Flame Toys]], "Optimus Prime (Attack Mode)" is an articulated, non-transforming, Voyager Class-sized {{w|Gunpla}}-style model kit. Using parts made of hard ABS plastic and some polycaps, Optimus Prime (Attack Mode) is an original design created by Flame Toys in collaboration with [[Akira Amemiya]] of [[Studio Trigger]].

:For straight-assembly builders, Optimus Prime features a sheet of foil stickers for detail (notably the shoulder insignias), though the kit can be panel-lined and touched-up with several panel-lining and paint markers (water/acrylic-based markers are recommended, as alcohol-based markers like ''Gundam Markers'' can potentially damage the ABS plastic). If one desires; the kit's pieces, aside from the translucent parts, can be fully coated with spray paints to recreate the finished sample seen in the stock photos.

:This model kit was later [[redeco]]ed as [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#Flame Toys|Nemesis Prime (Attack Mode)]] and [[Optimus Prime (SG)#Flame Toys|Shattered Glass Optimus Prime (Attack Mode)]].

It is a non-converting action figure with 5 points of articulation (simple swivel shoulders, legs, and neck) and an [[Ion blaster]] accessory he can only hold in his right hand.

: It should be noted that despite being a "retro-styled" figure, the hard-plastic points on his helmet are very accurate to the animation model and therefore ''incredibly'' pointy, like, "would not be allowed on a toy for the 5-13 set" pointy.

: As with all releases in the ''ReAction'' toyline, Optimus comes packaged in a small cardback that emulates the nostalgic packaging style of [[Kenner]] ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]'' action figures of the late 1970s to early '80s.

: Part of the first wave of ''[[Super7#Transformers ULTIMATES!|Transformers ULTIMATES!]]'' from [[Super7]], Optimus Prime is a 7-inch-tall action figure based on his cartoon model. He features multi-directional joints at the neck, shoulders, wrists, hips, and ankles; plus swivel biceps, elbows, knees, and a bit of ab crunch. His hands pop out at the wrists so they can be replaced with his additional spare hands in different poses (or the obligatory Energon Axe), and his head can be replaced with an alternate based on the original Optimus toy.

: Part of the third wave of ''ULTIMATES!'', the [[Alligaticon#Merchandise|Alligaticon]] is a 10-inch-long non-transforming figure made to emulate the the Optimus-parts creature's cartoon model to pretty exacting detail (including the ''lack'' of detail on most of its flat surfaces). It makes ample use of multi-swivel joints to give its limbs a relatively wide range of motion, plus extensive tail jointing, a mid-body bend, some neck waggle, and an opening jaw.

: It comes with multiple "[[City of Steel (episode)|City of Steel]]"-themed accessories, including a tower with Optimus's arm attached to it. The arm is permanently attached, but the hand uses the same wrist-joint as the individual Optimus figure, and can be popped off and replaced with his other hands if you like (Optimus's wrist-pegs are larger than many other figures', so sadly cross-compatibility is limited at best). Curiously, while the arm appears to be identical to the prior figure's arm, the gun is not, having a trigger guard the original version lacks.

: It also comes with Optimus's disembodied head on a ball-jointed "neck" with trailing wires. Like the arm, the head is the same mold as the original Optimus, but this time cast in clear-blue plastic painted over, with a small gap in the back of the head to attempt [[light-piping]]... but depending on the strength of the light, it might just shine through the paint. Since it's the same mold, one could theoretically swap it out, but trying to push that wire-mass back into the socket seems like it'd be a bit of a pain in the neck (wocka wocka!).

:''[[Transformers × Mini World]]'' Optimus Prime is a tie-in to the popular [[China|Chinese]] game ''[[Mini World]]''. It comes with a display base which can fold up into a cube-shaped representation of Prime's truck mode, complete with rolling wheels. The figure can transform into a storage mode and store fully inside the cube, or you can remove his head and replace it with the folded up cube. The unfurled base mode has some machinery inside, as well as a weapons rack to store the included gun and axe accessories. The set includes two smokestacks that can be pegged onto the truck-cube mode.

:Each set includes [[Build a Figure]]-like machinery components which can be combined with parts from other sets to make new structures.

:It is exclusively available at TMall, a subsidiary of Alibaba. This figure was released both individually and as part of a giftset with the rest of the "Mini World" Transformers.

:Apart of the line of cute, cuddly Transformers Plushies, [[Mochibots Transformers Plush|Mochibots]] Convoy (otherwise known as ''Optimus Prime'') is a 5.5 CM tall variation of the character, with Sunbow cartoon-accurate white pants and all! This Convoy is given a "Fumo" stylization, making the robotic detailing more rounded and soft, with stubby limbs and a cute, somewhat stern expression. Every detail is sewn-in, leading to him and the rest of the Mochibots line having a premium feel, with added texture and depth added to each detail. In addition to all this cute Convoy's offerings, he has a block of stuffed material in the back to represent his "Backpack", and a stitched-on Autobot logo! Though, much like [[Cliffjumper (G1)/toys#Mochibots Transformers Plush|Cliff]], the Autobot logo seems to have a squinting expression, likely a limitation of how far the detail can go with this process. Like many other Mochibots, Convoy also features a special, reflective material in his eyes and windows, with light giving it a special shimmer effect whenever it hits it.

:Convoy was released in the Summer of 2023 in "Volume 1" of the Mochibots line, alongside Cliff, Bumble, and Convoy's Shattered Glass counterpart. This line was exclusive to China and Japan, with almost all of them being locked to Asia via [[amiami|amiami's]] digital storefront.

He is depicted as a human man wearing heavily Optimus Prime-inspired body armour and sports equipment, including a colour coordinated football, and is designed with the characteristic LOWFOOL facial features of a strong brow, squinting eyes, and moustache (not, as you might surmise, as a reference to [[Peter Cullen]]'s own face fuzz).

It consists of three pieces that can be interchanged with those of [[Beyblade#BEYBLADE X|other ''Beyblade X'' tops]]; an attacking "Blade" primarily made of metal, a "Ratchet" that locks parts together and determines height, and a "Bit" that touches the ground and determines movement.

:The "Optimus Prime" Blade features evergreen art of Optimus Prime on its central Gear Chip and is partial of the mainline ''Beyblade X'' Blade "Helm Knight". The Ratchet (4-60) and Bit (Point) are recolored parts from other ''Beyblade X'' tops.

:In Hasbro territories, a QR Code sticker hidden underneath the Blade can be scanned into the ''Beyblade X'' companion app. In Takara-Tomy territories, the QR Code stickers are omitted in favor of a Beycode Card packed with the instructions.

:Released as part of Yolopark's AMK Pro line, Optimus Prime comes in pre-assembled modules as opposed to traditional model kit runners. This allows him to be assembled quickly and easily without tools. Unlike Yolopark's regular AMK line, the AMK Pro line features diecast parts as well as light-up features. In Prime's case, his eyes will light up when tapping his head with a magnet. The feature requires one CR927 battery which is not included.

:The fully assembled figure resembles the ''Masterpiece'' Convoy 3.0 and features an opening Matrix chamber and fully articulated hands, eliminating the need for alternate hands. Both the ion blaster and Megatron gun can be wielded by his hands, though removing the stalk from the Megatron gun makes this much easier.

:The figure was redecoed into Nemesis Prime.

:Released in the first wave of ''Galaxy Version'' line of blind boxes, [[Blokees]] Optimus Prime is a roughly 4-inch tall, highly-articulated, and non-transforming snap-on model kit of the Autobot leader. He is built on a "Standard Body" skeleton shared with other Blokees figures in the line, but with different body pieces to make them distinct. As advertised in the box, Prime has a pull rate of 1 in every 12 boxes, or three times across four cases.

:Prime comes with a pair of closed and open hands, along with a left hand molded in a pointing position exclusive to this figure. He also comes with his trademark Ion Blaster and Energon axe weapons—the former can be plugged into the closed hands, and the latter can be plugged into either wrist. The barrel of the Ion Blaster is compatible with the blast effects included with Ironhide, Megatron, and Skywarp. He also has a figure stand with either four studs (China release/Chinese logo) or two studs (Global release/English logo) on top, which he can plug into and connect to similar stands. Optimus can also accommodate the jetpack included with Sideswipe, which was released as part of the ''Shining Version'' lineup.

:If one chooses, Prime's inner shoulder parts and elbow joints can be swapped with the red-colored pieces from the same lineup to create a more cartoon-accurate coloration.

:His body parts are redecoed to make ''Galaxy Version'' [[Optimus Prime (SG)#Blokees|Shattered Glass Optimus Prime (IDW)]], [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/merchandise#Blokees|Ultra Magnus (DW)]], and [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#Blokees|Nemesis Prime]].

In addition, Optimus also features most of the (now opaque) deco patterns from the chase figure included in the first ''Galaxy Version'' wave, and the front waist section of the LED torso frame has a slightly different pattern.

: This release incorporates more secure tooling for the head and face parts, as demonstrated in the instructions for subsequent re-releases of the Galaxy Version kit.

:The third wave of the ''Shining Version'' series introduced a new mold styled after his Orion Pax appearance in ''IDW Publishing'''s "Spotlight Orion Pax" comic. As with later Galaxy Version kits since Wave 5, Orion features sturdier pre-assembled hinge joints.

:Since Orion's chin is slightly too long, fully inserting the ball joint may cause his head to ''slightly'' look upwards. To prevent this, insert the ball joint into Orion's head socket first, and then attach it to the torso frame's peg hole until you feel the friction between the joint and the hole without fully inserting it.

:If you're a speed builder, be mindful when attaching the pre-assembled joints; Unlike the symmetrical joints from earlier waves, the pegs on both ends of these joints are designed to connect to specific pieces; The tabs with slightly smaller holes are intended for the upper arms and thighs, while the regular tabs are meant for the forearms and lower legs. While an incorrect knee joint assembly may cause it to very slightly lean when standing straight or in an A-stance, an incorrect elbow assembly won't be noticeably affected unless you're looking very closely.

He also features updated articulation from the 7th and 8th ''Galaxy Version'' line, along with waves, including a double-sided ball-and-socket neck joint, a ball jointed waist, slide-down hip joint axis, rotating upper thigh joints, and improved double-jointed knee articulation.

:The "Action Edition" Optimus Prime is a 7-inch (approx 18cm) model kit with a slightly more complex build and features an inner frame (equivalent to the ones used for ''Bandai'''s "Master/Perfect/Real Grade" kits) with greater articulation points than his other ''Galaxy Version'' toys. In addition to his two signature weapons, the removable Matrix of Leadership, and the jetpack, Optimus also comes with a hologram readout and wrist comm pieces to attach to the left forearm, with each of those parts featuring two different types of stickers. The articulated hands also feature two additional index fingers, a straight pointing piece, and a slightly curved piece for the Ion Blaster's trigger. A magnetic component in his display stand's faction symbol activates the light-up features that illuminate his eyes and the Matrix. An additional sticker sheet and extra yellow-colored eye parts can be used to create a toy-accurate version of this kit.

:If one chooses, the middle-to-pinky fingers ''can'' be (carefully) sliced into individual pieces as they also feature individual ball joints for each finger.

:Part of the first wave of the Blokees Wheels series of blind-boxed 1/64-scale vehicles, this Optimus Prime model kit is based on his Earth truck mode designed by [[Don Figueroa]] for [[IDW Publishing]]'s 2009-2011 ''[[The Transformers (IDW)|The Transformers]]'' series. While everything else is molded in ABS plastic, the front section is made out of "2.5x density" Solidex to evoke the feeling of die-cast cars like [[Hot Wheels]]. He uses the same universal Chassis Connector as the rest of the lineup, and his front section can be opened to allow the chase kits' driver figures to sit inside; the seats can also accommodate the [[Matrix of Leadership]] included with his wavemate [[Scamper#Blokees Wheels|Scamper]]. The truck bed has a standard-size port which serves as a trailer hitch, used by the ''CT 01'' individual-release version of this kit, which includes the trailer.

:This kit was first distributed at the Indonesia Diecast Expo 2025, where attendees could obtain it (as one of the randomized items) by scanning a provided QR code with the Blokees App.

:While the driver figure fits most vehicle kits, some are incompatible or require specific poses to fit in the cockpit. Additionally, care must be taken when assembling/posing the left upper thigh, as the tight fit at the ball joint can cause a worryingly tight tolerance. Attempting to remove the piece from the ball joint will snap it off.

:Produced by [[Unix Square]], a toy company based in Hong Kong, [[Combot]] Optimus Prime is an action figure approximately the size of a Voyager Class figure, and he features an impressive 50 points of articulation and includes a hefty amount of die-cast metal for a weighty premium feel, and light-up features for both the eyes and the Matrix of Leadership. In addition to his iconic Ion Blaster, Optimus also comes with a handheld Energon Axe and a live-action movie-inspired Energon Sword. The sword can also combine with the Ion Blaster to create a Bayonet.

:As the LED unit is wired on the neck, Optimus's head cannot swivel in a full 360 degrees.

:Unlike most non-Hasbro/Takara merchandise of the character on this page, Combot Optimus Prime can transform—albeit loosely defined due to licensing restrictions—into a stylized cab-over using full partsforming, while requiring the included vehicle mode frame.

{{toydesigner|[[Hideaki Yoke]] (TakaraTomy)|[[Shinji Aramaki]] (concept artist)}}

: Formerly the ''[[Micro Change]]'' MC-20 Micro Scope, ''[[The Transformers (toyline)|The Transformers]]'' Perceptor transforms into a functional microscope, thought his magnification is limited to 14X<ref>Perceptor's [[instructions]].</ref> due to the relatively crude nature of his lens. In [[robot mode]], Perceptor is armed with a red "Concussion Rifle" and a rocket launcher that holds one of three red missile-shaped projectiles. On the original ''Micro Change'' toy, the launcher fired via a spring-loaded mechanism, which was disabled for the Hasbro release of Perceptor, but re-enabled for Takara's version of the figure.

:Perceptor can also be configured into a third "vehicular" mode. In the ''Micro Change'' line, this form was a mobile artillery emplacement that repurposed his scope into a cannon barrel. It had two configurations; it could be angled forward to serve as a tank, or upward to serve as a [[mortar cannon]], and could be manned in both by a ''Microman'' action figure, who sat in the "seat" formed by his chest tray. The ''Transformers'' release of the toy chose to reinterpret the mode as a "mobile laboratory" in its instructions, which depicted it in its angled-upwards "mortar cannon" configuration, but Perceptor's [[The Transformers Universe|''Universe'' profile]] didn't go along with this, and referred to it as an artillery emplacement like it was in ''Micro Change''.

:The Japanese version does ''not'' launch missiles from the scope, despite what some sources say.

:There is an odd variant of this toy: some have a more golden-hued chrome than the normal silver. This is not a very common variant.

:The mold was later [[redeco]]ed to make [[Magnificus (G1)#Toys|Magnificus]]. It also served as the model for the non-toy character, the [[Chairman]].

<ul class="iconlist">{{Bp-a1|'''Perceptor''' ([[2009]])}}</ul>
:*''Series'': G1 Series
:*''Accessories'': "Concussion rifle", missile launcher, 3 missiles

: Hasbro did their own reissue of Perceptor as part of the [[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|''Universe'' line]]. The [[Toys"R"Us]] [[exclusive]] was issued in a box with an opening front cover and advertised as a "Commemorative Edition", much like the earlier [[Soundwave (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Soundwave]] and the [[Insecticon (G1)#Universe (2008)|Insecticons]] (which were released at the same time as Perceptor).

:There are several differences between the original 1985 toy and this one. The stickers are shiny reflective, not matte. On his shoulder stickers, the magnification is shown as x15, not x14 as on the original figure. The stickers on the sides of the lower legs retained the original Microman number "MC 20", which is filled out blank on the original. Lastly, while the 1985 figure has 1974-1984 Takara stamped on his lower back, the reissue has Takara 1984 and Hasbro 1984 stamped vertically on his shoulder blades.

:Strangely, the spring of the missile launcher was not weakened like most Generation 1 toys, but were straight-out omitted from the gun. This makes the missiles totally useless, because they don't even clip into the gun. Additionally, the box labels his mobile-laboratory mode as a tank mode while not including his actual tank mode.

{{toydesigner|[[Hisashi Yuki]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: Part of the sixth wave of the [[Transformers (2010 toyline)|2010 ''Transformers'' toyline]], Perceptor amalgamates elements from his original Generation 1 design and [[Guido Guidi]]'s design from IDW's ''[[The Transformers: All Hail Megatron|All Hail Megatron]]'' series (in particular, the foreshortened chest seen in [[:File:AHM8-Perceptor.jpg|this panel]], the arrows on his forearms and abdomen, and even his sniper rifle barrel in lieu of his traditional scope). His updated [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]] is reminiscent of that of [[Perceptor (Animated)|his ''Animated'' counterpart]], being a generic "scientific expedition" vehicle. Its front half resembles a modern off-road vehicle similar to a {{w|Land Rover Defender}} or a {{w|Jeep Commander}}, while the rear section features treads instead of wheels, making it a half-track vehicle (which aren't actually produced anymore). His license plate reads "MR 51409", the exact significance of which is not yet known (though it might have something to do with the possible birth date of [[Bill Rawley]]'s daughter).

:[[File:PerceptorHasbroStock.jpg|thumb|left|upright=0.66|Lack of chrome was deemed "not nerdy enough".]]
:Unusually for a mainline Hasbro toy, Perceptor has some [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metalized]] parts. The chromed dials on his forearms feature bars compatible with [[C joint]] accessories. Like all ''[[Transformers (2010 toyline)#Hasbro Reveal the Shield subline|Reveal the Shield]]'' [[subline imprint]] figures, Perceptor has a [[rubsign]], which is located behind a translucent door on his chest that can be opened. His hands are compatible with [[5 mm post|5mm post]]s, such as the ones on the guns of his original toy.

:The [[instructions]] incorrectly tell you to position the feet horizontally in vehicle mode, which causes them to press against his knees and prevent the vehicle mode from tabbing correctly in numerous places, when they are meant to be positioned vertically and rest against the trunk. Strangely, the correct position can be seen in the numerous steps depicting the underside of the vehicle, but it immediately switches to the incorrect position on the steps concerning the feet. Additionally, [[packaging]] [[stock photography]] depicts a considerably different Perceptor than the final product. The photos show him having silver [[paint operation]]s on his upper legs and inner forearms, but said parts appear to be made of [[unpaintable plastic]], rather understandably causing the paint operations to be dropped. Additionally, the shoulder laser, chest, and arm knobs sport silver paint rather than chrome.

:As first acknowledged by Hasbro at [[BotCon 2010]], the toy was planned to eventually be retooled into [[Reflector (G1)#Generations|Reflector]], using a new head based on Perceptor's original toy head.<ref>http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/conventions-15/botcon-2010-hasbro-designers-panel-170066/</ref> At one point, Reflector was intended to be released as part of a [[Toys"R"Us]] [[exclusive]] ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' 2-pack together with [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#Generations|Sideswipe]] (in ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' colors), but that set was ultimately never released. The alternate head sculpt was eventually used by TakaraTomy for the [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive ''Generations'' [[Magnificus (G1)#Generations|Magnificus]] figure.

:*''ID number'': '''UN-15'''
:*''Release date'': [[February 26]], 2011

: Released in the third wave of Takara's ''[[Transformers United|United]]'' toyline, "Autobot Perceptor" features several differences from his Hasbro ''Reveal the Shield'' counterpart, covering his red vehicle panels with metallic red paint, replacing the clear yellow with colorless clear plastic, and adding some additional detailing to his vehicle mode and robot mode. Other notable details are blue translucent paint on the eyes, as well as silver detailing on his chest.

: As with all ''United'' versions of the 2010 ''Transformers'' toys, Perceptor lacks a heat-sensitive [[rubsign]], replacing it with a [[tampograph]]ed Autobot sigil. Surprisingly, he lacks any of the chrome from the Hasbro release, leaving those corresponding parts either painted silver or unpainted light gray plastic.

: As part of the second wave of ''[[Kre-O]]'' [[blindpacking|blindpacked]] [[Micro-Changer]]s, Perceptor is a [[Kreon]] mini-figure patterned after Generation 1 Perceptor. He can be rebuilt into a microscope.

:This Collection was still in circulation at "dollar" stores and drug stores up through 2015. They eventually lost the individual-identifying bag codes, but other changes were hidden inside the bag. The 2015 releases replaced the 2x4 logo stand-brick with a new 3x4 logo plate. The Kreon was also given the slight [[retool]]ing to the arm seen in the 2014 Kreons, making the "cuff" parts more sharp-cornered and better adapted to being used as studs. Some of the add-on pieces may also be slightly off-color, possibly due to a change in factories in mid-production.

He comes with a clear blue 2x2 tile that one can only assume is supposed to be some kind of microscope slide.

:He was only available in a [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2014 [[exclusive]] pack of 30 Kreons dubbed the "Kreon Class of 1984". Remaining stock was to be sold at [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] online, only there ''was'' no remaining stock after the show.

: In 2016, Collection 2 was re-released in a whole new production run for Dollar General stores in the US as part of a large collection of re-released ''Kre-O'' sets. But where most of these releases are nigh-identical to the originals, the re-released Micro-Changer blind-bags use the almost-entirely-retooled 2015 Kreon, with slightly-differently-hued plastics than the originals. (It is possible for some of the add-on pieces to be in the older hues.) Perceptor's [[tampograph]]s got some color changes, replacing the light gray with shiny silver, and changing his light blue toe paint to black.

:*''Accessories'': Concussion rifle, missile launcher, 3 missiles, 6 slides, slide holder

: Hasbro again re-released G1 Perceptor in 2015 as part of the [[Transformers: Platinum Edition|''Platinum Edition'']] toyline. He was co-packed with [[Blaster (G1)/toys#Platinum Edition|Blaster]], [[Eject (G1)#Generations|Eject]], [[Ramhorn (G1)#Generations|Ramhorn]], and [[Steeljaw (G1)#Generations|Steeljaw]] in a box with an opening front cover.

: A new feature included in this set specifically for Perceptor are six 'microscope slides' featuring different pictures, and a slide holder / cage which can hold all six slides. The slides fit snugly onto the mirror of Perceptor's mounting platform, although looking at them through the scope is an underwhelming experience, to say the least.

:Although Perceptor's missile launcher is included, once again the firing mechanism is completely gutted, with the trigger glued into the launcher. However, the missiles are still able to plug into the launcher and are held firmly in place by friction.

:In the United States, this set was officially a [[Target]] exclusive, though it was initially only ever found at a single Target store, otherwise only available via the company's website. It was later revealed that multiple Target stores had kept it in their stockroom and eventually put it out on instant clearance many months later. However, it was also stocked by US-based online retailers [[BigBadToyStore]] and TFSource, who supposedly obtained it as an import from Asia. It was available in several of Hasbro's Asian markets (namely Malaysia, the Philippines and Singapore; it's currently unknown whether it was exclusive to any particular stores there or not). In Australia, it was sold at [[Toys"R"Us]] stores.

:In the United Kingdom, it was both sold at [[Toys"R"Us]] stores and officially available via the UK division of [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]], making this the first official UK release of all the toys contained within! In Spain, it was officially available via the Spanish division of Amazon. In Germany, it was originally available via Bankroft, an online retailer that otherwise specializes in [[Nerf]] blasters and accessories, as part of a special "Fan Edition" arrangement through Hasbro Germany, with the help of several German [[fandom|fan]] sites. Due to low sales, the unsold stock was later sold to Actionfiguren24, a German online retailer that specializes in imported toys, who was able to lower its price for its existing stock of imported Autobot Intel Ops sets as a result.

<ul class="iconlist">{{Bp-a1|'''Convex & Perceptor''' (Deluxe Class, 2017)}}</ul>
:*''Accessories'': Gun, "Convex" Titan Master
{{toydesigner|[[John Warden]] (Hasbro)}}

: Part of the fourth wave of ''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' Deluxe Class toys, Perceptor is based on [[Guido Guidi]]'s design for the character first seen in ''[[The Transformers: All Hail Megatron|All Hail Megatron]]'' (complete with sniper rifle), and transforms into a microscope. Perceptor's microscope lens works, and a dial on the scope can be turned to refocus it slightly. Titan Masters can be laid across the tray in robot mode, or pegged into the tray in head mode.

: Perceptor comes with his Titan Master partner [[Convex]], who transforms into his robot mode head.

:Perceptor is designed to transform into a new interpretation of the third mode of his original toy, with dedicated parts and clips to hold his body in place in the specific angled-upward position of the "mortar cannon" configuration, but with his scope pointed forward like the "tank" configuration. However, it was omitted from his instructions for unknown reasons.

:Perceptor's transformation involves very little to lock anything in place in robot mode, relying on either friction or gravity to hold him together. This leaves him somewhat unstable, and his parts prone to shifting out of place when attempting to move his limbs. The large size of his scope also greatly restricts his head articulation.

:As with other ''Titans Return'' toys, Perceptor can accommodate any Titan Master figure in both robot and vehicle mode, though ''unlike'' most other figures in the line, Perceptor has no dedicated cockpit to hold them in. This means Titan Masters can really only lay in his tray in microscope mode, or attach to him via the small pegs sculpted onto the sides of his altmodes. There does appear to be a section sculpted specifically to hold a Titan Master's feet under the small flip-up silver panel on his chest that would allow them to "man" his third mode... except rather than sitting in it, they have to ''kneel'' with their knees locking into the groove.

His Headmaster, redecoed from Convex, features detailed paint operations to resemble Perceptor himself and has blue instead of yellow eyes in head mode.

: Released in the fifteenth wave of ''[[Studio Series]]'' Deluxes, commemorating the 35th anniversary of ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', Perceptor faithfully recreates his character model from the Generation 1 cartoon, but with the addition of the tank tread legs from his original toy. Perceptor transforms into both a microscope and a goofy mortar cannon mode. While both ends of his scope ''are'' fitted with translucent plastic "lenses", it does not have any actual functionality as a microscope unlike the [[#The Transformers|original]] and [[#Titans Return|''Titans Return'' figures]]. He comes with a modestly-sized blaster which can be pegged into the side of his scope/cannon in either alternate mode.

: Like the other ''Studio Series'' toys, the interior of the package forms a display backdrop, depicting the Battle of Autobot City in Perceptor's case. His surface greebling is directly based on [https://tfwiki.net/mediawiki/images2/thumb/f/f4/G1_Perceptor_reissueart.jpg/394px-G1_Perceptor_reissueart.jpg box art] from the [[The Transformers Collection|''The Transformers Collection'']] [[#The Transformers Collection|reissue]] of his original toy, as seen in designer [[Evan Brooks]]' behind the scenes Instagram post.

: The pearl-white paint on Perceptor's translucent-plastic chest window is prone to scuffing and scratching even before the packaging is opened.

: This mold was also used to make ''Selects'' [[Magnificus (G1)#Generations Selects|Magnificus]].

: The red portion of the robot torso is entirely new (and appears to be a painted piece sharing a mold with Ramhorn's parts), now with a panel covering the gap behind the head, plus new longer biceps. An unfortunate side effect of the new chest is that the tank mode of the previous release can no longer properly tab together, resulting in its exclusion from this release's instructions.<ref>https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/studio-series-transformers-the-movie-perceptor-ratbat-and-ramhorn.1278995/ In-hand review of the figure from TFW2005 user ziltama</ref> Interestingly, the new instructions show a different way of orientating the legs and upper thighs, causing him to lean slightly forward in his alt mode, as opposed to the previous mold.

: In what is likely an oversight, the small rectangular details on Perceptor's inner shoulder pylons are a different size on his chest compared to those on his back.

:Perceptor was revealed at [[Toy Fair|New York Toy Fair]] 2025 and released in a [[Target]]-exclusive three-pack as part of the “MTMTE Collection” with the aforementioned Ratbat and Ramhorn figures, homaging the scene in ''The Transformers: The Movie'' when they fought.

: The original Perceptor toy was reissued once again in 2023, this time under the branding of the [[Walmart]] [[exclusive]] ''[[Transformers Retro]]'' line. However, this release, which was given specific ''The Transformers: The Movie'' branding, gives the mold a redeco with colors based on his original cartoon character model. Although every previous incarnation of this mold has featured a working microscope, with the Retro version Hasbro decided to give the microscope a semi-opaque grey lens, rendering it useless. However, the instructions ''do'' show directions for using the microscope, making this change even odder. On a similar note, the instructions don't include Perceptor's third "mobile laboratory"/"artillery emplacement" mode, possibly due to it not being present in the cartoon and movie. As the mold itself remains unchanged, though, he can still transform into it.

: The package art for Perceptor's robot mode and background is reused from the above [[#Studio Series|''Studio Series'']] toy, with the upper half of the new microscope art being based on the original toy.

Like all the figures in the series, Perceptor featured a number sculpted into his back that was the sum total of his [[Tech Spec]]s, for use in the various games that could be played with the figurines. He was available in red as part of a 22-piece box set of Autobot figures, in peach as part of various other randomly-packed box sets released by Takara subsidiary [[Seven]], and in a wide variety of different colors in "gachapon" capsule machines.

:''[[Heroes of Cybertron|Super Collection Figure]]'' Perceptor is a non-transforming three-inch tall figure, released [[blindpacking|blindpacked]] in the ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Victory (franchise)|Victory]]''-themed "Act 7" of the line (which, given Perceptor had an [[Ginrai Dies!!|extended cameo]] in the [[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Victory (cartoon)|''Victory'' cartoon]], makes sense). He came in both full color and painted-pewter versions, each packed one per case of twelve. Bizarrely, the color version has a red left hand, which is even reflected in the packaging photography.

:The pewter version of the figure has a potential problem with connector peg breakage, due to said pegs often getting a layer of pewter paint before being forced into a socket, leading to sticking and tearing. Care should be used when moving or removing the arms; shaving down the socket interior with a thin hobby knife is usually sufficient to fix the issue. On top of that, the short peg for his shoulder-mounted microscope assembly needs to be shaved down slightly to fit into the extremely shallow hole on his shoulder.

:The pewter version of Perceptor was packed with the [[Star Saber (G1)#Super Collection Figure|Victory Saber]] rifle. This part could also be in either full color or pewter, packed at a ratio of eight color parts to two pewters.

:Part of the fifth assortment of ''[[Tiny Titans]]'' [[blindpacking|blindpacks]], this version of Perceptor is a very small, soft-plastic figure of him in robot mode, kneeling with a sniper rifle, recalling his [[IDW Publishing|IDW]] incarnation.

:He includes a collectible card that renders him in the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 franchise)|2015 ''Robots in Disguise'']] styling. The card includes a scan-badge for the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (mobile game)|''Robots in Disguise'' mobile game]], which unlocks a random amount of Energon "currency" and a randomized bonus power-up item.

: As with all releases in the ''ReAction'' toyline, Perceptor comes packaged on a small cardback that emulates the nostalgic packaging style of [[Kenner]]'s ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]]'' action figures from the late 1970s to early '80s.

{{toydesigner|[[Kōjin Ōno]] (TakaraTomy), [[Shōji Kawamori]] ([[Studio Nue]])|[[Jeffrey Mangiat]] (packaging artist)}}

: Originally released in the ''[[Diaclone]]: Car Robot'' line, ''[[The Transformers (toyline)|The Transformers]]'' Mirage was part of the original 1984 Autobot Cars assortment, transforming into a F-1 {{w|Ligier JS11}} racer. His vehicle mode was specifically designed to work with the launcher mechanism contained in the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Optimus Prime]] / ''Diaclone'' Battle Convoy trailer. He includes a spring-loaded missile launcher for use in robot mode; the launcher's spring was severely weakened for the [[Hasbro]] releases [[for safety reasons]], while the later [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] release kept the mechanism fully-functional.

: This toy is ''incredibly'' easily broken at the waist pivot, being just a thin metal rod (or sometimes even plastic post) connecting his rather weighty upper and lower halves.

: In 1984, Mirage was the most common figure of his price point, since he was packaged two per [[case]] for the better part of the year. (There were originally only eleven different Autobot Cars figures in a case of twelve, with the extra Mirage used to fill up the case. Near the end of the year, the extra Mirage was replaced by [[Skids (G1)#The Transformers|Skids]].) Like all his 1984 brethren, Mirage received a heat-activated [[rubsign]] in 1985, added to his spoiler; this version was the one released in Japan and various European markets. He was discontinued at retail in 1986, but continued to be available as a [[Pack-in material#Mail-order flyers|mail-away item]] for years, costing $8 and two [[Robot Point]]s. The last of these offers, 1988's "[[The Autobots Are Under Attack!]]," marked the final release of the toy; the figure's mold was subsequently [[Mold#Issues with Reissues|either lost or damaged]], making him one of only two regular-retail 1984 toys to never be reissued in any capacity (the other being the enigmatic "[[Bumper (G1)#Toys|Bumper]]"). He has, however, been [[knockoff|knocked off]] to high heaven in a variety of colors.

: The labels on the toy are references to several real-world companies. The largest name, Citanes, is a deliberate corruption of Gitanes, a French cigarette company. (Quite unusual for a child's toy, but not the only [[Exhaust|cigarette reference in ''Diaclone'']].) The toy included Gitanes' logo of a dancing woman on what ends up as Mirage's belt in robot form. "Ligier" is the name of the company that manufactured the JS11 chassis and fielded the team, Équipe Ligier, traditionally wearing 25 and 26 on the F1 grid, while "elf" is a reference to a French oil company that has since merged with TotalFina to become TotalFinaElf.

: The Italian version of Mirage (called "Mistero") released by [[GiG]] covered the "Citanes" tampographs with [http://www.fredsworkshop.com/vmirage.html factory-applied "Ligier" decals], and later outright replaced the "Citanes" tampos with actual "Ligier" tampos.

: Commemorating the death of Optimus Prime in ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', this set contains a special version of the original Optimus Prime figure with show-inspired translucent blue windows, packaged with unchanged versions of Mirage ("Ligier" in Japan) and [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#The Transformers|Red Alert]] ("Alert"). It seems this was done in an apparent homage to the similar ''Diaclone'' "Powered Convoy DX" giftset, which packaged the "Powered Convoy" version of the Optimus mold with the ''Diaclone'' versions of the other two Autobots.

:[[:File:G2MirageVaultArt.jpg|Concept art for a green and pink redeco]] of Mirage's original toy (with alligator decals!) meant for the ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' toyline surfaced in the [[2011]] ''[[Transformers Vault]]'' collector's book by [[Pablo Hidalgo]]. In an unusual coincidence, ''Transformers'' fan and rarities-hunter [[Maziar Shahsafdari]] unveiled a pictorial review of the mock-up done for this redeco on his website TF-1.com shortly after the book came out, entirely unaware of its inclusion in the tome. Of note is a new hole in his... uh... frontular region... which in vehicle mode would allow him to mount a weapon, presumably a giant ridiculous spring-loaded missile launcher.

:Given that the previous ''Generation 2'' [[Jazz (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Jazz]] and [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#Generation 2|Sideswipe]] toys were released with two fellow ''Diaclone''-based wavemates, this Mirage figure would probably have been released alongside [[Jazz (G1)/toys#G2DiacloneUnreleased|orange Jazz]] and [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#G2DiacloneUnreleased|yellow Sideswipe]]. Of the three, Mirage is the only one whose identity is unambiguous as [[:File:G2MirageVaultArt.jpg|the physical art piece]] uncovered by Pablo Hidalgo had "Mirage" handwritten at the bottom in black marker, similar to the artwork which revealed names for [[Sandstorm (G2)|Sandstorm]] and [[Blackout (G2)|Blackout]].

: The color scheme went on to creep up in a few pieces of referential fiction, described [[Mirage (G1)#TransTech|here on the main Mirage page]]. Nearly three decades later, it would finally be released on an [[#Legacy|actual Mirage toy]] in the ''[[Transformers: Legacy|Legacy: Evolution]]'' line.

:''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' Mirage was [[Lightspeed (G2)|originally designed]] for release during the ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' toyline, but the line's cancellation resulted in the figure being held back. Unlike most of the ''Machine Wars'' toys, his head looks very similar to his Generation 1 form. He transforms into a blue and white Penske PC-18 Indycar, and like the other ''Machine Wars'' Basic-class figures, the toy is a "flipchanger" with a one-step, spring-loaded transformation. His rifle splits into two pieces, which store inside his legs while he is in vehicle mode.

:This toy is [[gang-molding|gang-molded]] with the other three Basic molds in the line. Specifically, his shoulders and spine share plastic with [[Megaplex#Toys|Megaplex]]'s inner robot parts, his head shares plastic with [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Machine Wars|Skywarp]]'s jet parts, his seat shares plastic with [[Hoist (G1)/toys#Machine Wars|Hoist]]'s truck parts, plus he shares the pearlescent-gray optics plastic with, well, everyone.

:A redeco of the rifle (both pieces) was included in the ''[[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]'' [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#TargetCyberverseVs|Bumblebee]] vs [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#TargetCyberverseVs|Megatron]] two-pack.

:*''ID number'': '''RM-03'''

:*''Accessories'': 2-part "Molecular Bonding Gun", "JS Laser Gun"

: Part of the first wave of Takara's ''[[Robotmasters (franchise)|Robotmasters]]'' toys, "Rijie" uses the ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' Basic Class [[#Machine Wars|Mirage mold]], but in a much more [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1]]-based coloration and deco. He also came with an extra chrome-silver "JS Laser Gun" (like the other bonus weapons of ''Robotmasters'', it is suspected to be a mold originally developed yet ultimately unused by the cut-short ''[[Microman]] LED Powers'' line; "JS" is a reference to the naming scheme Ligier uses for its race cars, standing for Jo Schlesser, a Formula One driver who was a friend of Guy Ligier and was killed at the 1968 French Grand Prix).

: Because of legal reasons, "Ligier" could not be used for the name of the ''Robotmasters'' toy, so "Rijie", which has the same pronunciation in Japan, was used instead. Curiously, the toy's instructions still identify it as "Ligier".

:*''ID number'': '''22'''
:*''Accessories'': Engine/tonfa weapons
{{toydesigner|[[Steve Bono]] (Hasbro)|[[Marcelo Matere]] (packaging artist)}}

: ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' Mirage, released in the fourth wave of "round 2" of the line (with the bubble-style packaging), transforms into a finely-detailed 1:24-scale replica of a Ford GT, featuring opening doors, engine bay, and trunk, with a realistic interior. As with most Alternators, his car body is mostly unpainted, but the metallic-flake deep blue plastic makes this hard to see.

:Featuring an innovative, different [[robot mode]], Mirage is not a straight re-interpretation of the original Mirage's robot mode, due to the completely different types of vehicles. But coincidentally the Ford GT's hood features a shape that echoes an F1-type racing car's nose and front spoiler. His removable engine supercharger splits in two, becoming either a pair of small pistols or a pair of tonfa weapons.

:There is [[Gold Plastic Syndrome|an extensive amount of swirly plastic throughout the figure's entire car mode]], however, no cases of traditional gold plastic syndrome-like crumbling have been reported so far. Some have documented frequent "hairline cracks" showing up in this figure, however, these are usually concentrated on one specific portion of the car mode (they often show up as lines between the windshield and the front wheelwell) <ref>https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/alternators-binaltech-fandom-unite-lets-see-some-pics.235171/page-165#post-20719899</ref>, so it is possible that this could be chalked up to some stress applied on those specific portions of the plastic rather than the plastic itself.

:Mirage was retooled into [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#Kiss Players|Hot Rodimus]] for the ''[[Transformers: Kiss Players (toyline)|Kiss Players]]'' line, which was further redecoed into ''Alternators'' Rodimus. Later in 2007, he was redecoed in clear plastic colors to represent his 'invisibility mode' as an [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive in the ''[[Transformers: Alternators#Binaltech|Binaltech]]'' line (see below).

Mirage's paint details contain a few ''Transformers'' in-jokes in the form of sponsor logos such as "[[Sparkplug Witwicky|Witwicky Sparkplugs]]" and "[[Lithone (planet)|Lithonian]] Drivetrain". Additionally, his racing number is still 26, as it was on the original toy. Other logos, which include "Plasma Injection Energy" and "F.P. Racing", refer to "pie" and the initials of [[Joe Kyde|the deco artist]]'s super-secret friendship cult, respectively.

:The front detaches to become a handheld electro-disruptor weapon which is said to be able to create illusions and allow him to appear invisible. According to some of his production art, the weapon was partially styled after a crossbow. He is ''extremely'' poseable for his time, featuring double-jointed elbows and knees, ball-jointed spoiler "toes", and waist articulation, among others.

:In accordance with his victory in the 2018 ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' [[Fan polls#2018|Hasbro fan poll]], Mirage got a new figure in ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'', released concurrently with [[Impactor (G1)#War for Cybertron: Siege|Impactor]]. The figure is styled after Mirage's cartoon model, and transfoms into an F1 racer (a distinctly different model from his original toy) with Cybertronian elements—including a visual "26" written in [[Alphabet|Cybertronian numbers]] (however, the rest of the writing is in an unknown font, that likely spells "Citanes" or something to a similar effect). Mirage features extensive [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|faux parts]]; the vehicle nose making up his chest actually stores in the back of his vehicle mode, while the actual nose of the vehicle folds into the back of his shins. He comes with 3 weapons compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]], and features multiple 5 mm hardpoints to work with it. Unlike most ''Siege'' figures, Mirage is practically spotless, as no visible sign of battle damage paint applications can be seen anywhere on his body.

:While the stock render shows his arms with black shoulders, grey biceps and white forearms, the final toy has grey forearms. The render also depicts him with opaque blue plastic, with a clear cockpit, while the final toy has the entire hood molded in unpainted translucent blue plastic. The hood pieces use small tabs to connect to the rear end of the alt mode, but many copies of the figure have the tabs sized slightly too large, necessitating a bit of effort to tab them into place. As these tabs are made of more brittle translucent plastic, care should be taken when dealing with them, although the tabs breaking off does not drastically hinder the stability of the car mode should it happen.

A few of the figure's parts are still molded in opaque plastic, such as the biceps inner armatures. The figure has a number of unique clear blue paint applications including the number "26", a reference to [["Visages"]], and, of all things, the insignia of the [[Zarak Consortium]].

:Due to now being made almost entirely out of translucent plastic, Holo Mirage is susceptible to stress fractures at all points of articulation and tab-based transformation areas. Caution is suggested when handling the figure.

:Oddly, his missile is not called out in the instructions.

:Promoting the ''Siege'' season of the [[Netflix]]-original [[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' cartoon]], this redeco of ''Siege'' Mirage outfits the Autobot in a deco that matches his holographic Decepticon disguise as shown in the cartoon, along with an ''extensive'' paint wash coating to represent accumulated grime and battle scars. Mirage also sports base color differences, such as purple instead of blue and yellow eyes. Unlike his original ''Siege'' release, Decepticon Mirage does not use translucent plastic in any of his parts, greatly increasing his durability. This contained a portion of a cardstock background of [[Teletraan I]]. Mirage's part has slots G, I, J, and N.

:As the ''Siege'' cartoon depicts numerous [[generic]] Decepticons with Mirage's [[body-type]] in this color scheme, Decepticon Mirage can be used as an easy [[Army-building|army-builder]] for the Decepticon ranks if one chooses. Although rather coincidental, Mirage's color scheme and design also bear a striking resemblance to [[Barricade (IDW)|Barricade]]'s in the original IDW comic series.

:''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]'' Autobot Mirage is a significant retool of his ''Siege'' toy, with newly-molded robot and alternate mode parts as well as a tweaked upper-body transformation to better facilitate an earthen Formula One racecar vehicle mode, though still a different model from his animation design. Mirage's head, feet, waist, hands, wheels, accessories, and various structural parts are carried over from the ''Siege'' mold. His torso transformation joint can work as an ab-crunch. The new deco is missing most of the racing sponsor decals, but the "elf" decal from G1 has been replaced by "orc".

:Unfortunately, this version of Mirage has lost the C.O.M.B.A.T. System ports on his shoulders and has therefore lost the ability to mount his missile launcher on either shoulder in a "natural" firing position. Many have taken to utilizing the shallow 5 mm ports on the backs of his shoulder armor to mount the missile launcher pointed upwards. He also now has a new set of 3 mm posts on the forearms, just behind his fists. The 5 mm port on his back is also too large to accommodate 5 mm pegs, causing items placed in it to fall out easily. This issue would be corrected when the mold was reused for Leadfoot (see below).

:Revealed on [https://www.instagram.com/p/COvYKODJgGf/ #TransformersTuesday], Mirage was released with [[Grimlock (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Maximal Grimlock]] as a part of the "Battle Across Time Collection". Though similar to the ''Siege'' "Final Strike Figure Series", being exclusive multi-packs with package art that combines into a larger piece, the "Battle Across Time Collection" label is printed on the box. The two-pack is exclusive to [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] and [[Hasbro Pulse]] in the US, and in the UK on Hasbro Pulse and several online retailers. Initially set for a [[January 29]], [[2022]] release by TakaraTomy, the 2-pack was delayed to March 2022.

:This figure was retooled into ''[[Transformers: Legacy|Legacy]]'' ''[[Transformers: Legacy#Store exclusives|Wreck N' Rule Collection]]'' [[Leadfoot (G2)#Legacy|Leadfoot]], and then redecoed into ''[[Transformers: Legacy|Velocitron Speedia 500 Collection]]'' [[Crasher (G1)#Legacy|Decepticon Crasher]] using the head of the ''Siege'' Holo Mirage.

:Part of the first wave of the [[Blokees]] Wheels series of blind-boxed 1/64-scale vehicles, this Mirage model kit is a generic Cybertronian F1 car. While everything else is molded in ABS plastic, the vehicle shell is made out of "2.5x density" Solidex to evoke the feeling of die-cast cars like [[Hot Wheels]]. He uses the same universal Chassis Connector as the rest of the lineup, and his open top allows the chase kits' driver figures to sit inside.

:Mirage shares a mold with his wavemate [[Drag Strip (G1)#Blokees Wheels|Drag Strip]], just with four wheels instead of six and slightly different front and rear wings.

:Part of the ninth wave of Blokees' Galaxy Version blindbox kits, this Mirage is a roughly 4-inch-tall kit of the character. He is built on a "Standard Body" skeleton shared with other figures in the line, but with different body pieces to make them distinct. Aside from the two pairs of hands, Mirage comes with his signature Rocket Dart hunting-rifle with a blast effect. He also features an updated ball-and-socket waist, introduced in the previous wave, a slide-down hip joint axis, rotating upper thigh joints, and improved double-jointed knee articulation, similar to his wave mates. For some reason, instead of the forearms shared by the majority of Galaxy Version figures (including most of his wavemates), he has the slightly different ones used for ''[[Transformers One (franchise)|Transformers One]]'' characters.

:Because the newly designed knee joints are made to fit the narrow gaps in the thighs and lower legs, they are incompatible with joints from previous releases, including those used for the elbows.

:If you're a speed builder, be careful when attaching the pre-assembled joints; Unlike the symmetrical joints from earlier waves, the pegs on both ends of these joints are designed to connect to specific pieces; The tabs with slightly smaller holes are meant for the upper arms and thighs, while the regular tabs are intended for the forearms and lower legs. However, doing it incorrectly still won't affect the articulation.

{{disambig3|Cordon}}
{{faction|autobot|primusvanguard}}
:''Cordon is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Japanese portion]] of the [[Generation 1 continuity family]].''
[[File:TrainWars PoliceSunstreaker.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|No, no, no, I don't mess with computers, okay? Ever since I died of dysentery on the Oregon Trail, I was like, no thank you. I'm done with this.]]

'''Cordon''' (コルドン ''Korudon'') is a reserve trooper<ref>Written in Japanese as ''zaikyō senshi'' (郷軍戦士).</ref> afflicted with a glitch that causes regular memory loss. Born in an ancient era of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], Cordon's regular amnesia has frequently stripped him of any judgment of right or wrong, but has granted him one gift: the skills inscribed in his body systems from the multitude of different personae and experiences he has lived through. Among his expertises are the detoxification of [[iron habu]] venom, the improvement of dynamo repairs, and even cooking an exquisite feast for harvest festivals.

But such a renaissance 'bot also attracts the attention of the [[Decepticon]]s...<ref>''Masterpiece'' Cordon profile</ref>

==Fiction==
===Train Wars===
When [[The Fallen]] attacked [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] in the hopes of merging with [[Vector Sigma]], [[Overdrive]] sought additional help using the power of his [[Quantum Dial]]. Further empowering the dial with the help of the Oracle, Overdrive reached across space and time to recruit a policebot of [[Sunstreaker (G1)|Sunstreaker]]'s body-design and other inter-dimensional warriors. {{storylink|Train Wars}} The Fallen assumed a combination form, however, and managed to impale the reinforcements using energy spikes. [[Metroplex (G1)|Metroplex]], the [[Trainbot]]s, the [[Sixtrain|Train Team]], and the [[Sixliner|Liner Team]] soon arrived to turn the tide, and the Fallen was ultimately defeated. In the aftermath, the dimensional travelers were returned home by the [[Omnibot (G1)|Omnibot]]s. {{storylink|Train Wars 2}}

===''Masterpiece'' toy bios===
The bot later known as Cordon hailed from the era when the inhabitants of Cybertron overthrew their [[Quintesson]] creators. In the aftermath of this revolution, Cordon was among those who tested the process of transferring into a new "second generation" body of the robots' own design. {{storylink|Crosscut (G1)#Masterpiece|''Masterpiece'' Crosscut profile}} As part of the upgrade process, Cordon's data was backed up in the information storage of the [[Diadem]] testing facility, {{Storylink|#Toys|''Masterpiece'' Cordon profile}} but a bombing attack on the fortress by the [[Liegemen]] faction saw many "G2" bodies stolen {{storylink|Crosscut (G1)#Masterpiece|''Masterpiece'' Crosscut profile}} and left Cordon wandering the stars with damaged memory banks. As a result, he would periodically lose all memories accumulated up to that point, although he still subconsciously retained any skills he had acquired.

Eventually, Cordon encountered the Autobots on a battlefield, and was recruited into their faction. During training, Cordon was accused of aiding the enemy and participating in violent acts, but subsequent investigation revealed his memory issues. Deeming him incapable of moral judgment, the Autobots gave Cordon the relatively light sentence of 300 years of community service as the lone reserve trooper on a planet newly settled by [[human]]s. He was given a Lamborghini Countach vehicle mode for this assignment, and gained the name "Cordon" for the glowing police blockades he would create with his arm-mounted "Isolation Light". While the human settlers were initially wary of such a seemingly green soldier, Cordon's wide-ranging skills managed to overturn their first impressions. His accomplishments caught the notice of the Decepticons, however, and [[Garboil (G1)|Garboil]] approached Cordon in an attempt to lure him into joining the [[Cobalt Sentry|Cobalt Sentries]], noting that the Autobot would look nice in blue.

Turning down the offer, Cordon continued his life in the human settlement until he was approached by [[Delta Magnus]], who revealed to Cordon the existence of his backup memories at Diadem, and that he was the only remaining Transformer whose biometrics could unlock the ancient facility. After taking some time to consider, {{Storylink|#Toys|''Masterpiece'' Cordon profile}} Cordon agreed to join a mission to Diadem, where the Autobots faced heavy resistance from an alliance of the [[Decepticon]]s and Quintessons. While the battle saw most of the installation's precious data destroyed, Cordon's saved memories were recovered, but the amnesiac Autobot declined to install them. {{storylink|Spin-Out (G1)#Toys|''Masterpiece'' Spinout profile}}

The Autobots later learned that despite the project being forgotten in aftermath of the Diadem bombing, the factory on planet [[Foreston]] where the "G2 bodies" were manufactured had remained active for the past millions of years, autonomously creating and improving new body frames which could now prove a boon in the present day. Cordon joined a mission dispatched by Delta Magnus to the underground facility, which successfully gained access by using [[Crosscut (G1)|Crosscut]]'s senatorial status to override the ancient AI security system. While the team found that a [[Swarm (G2)|swarm]] of strangely-evolved prototypes had previously burst its way out of the installation, many advanced G2 bodies were indeed ready for the taking. Cordon, however, declined the prospect of an upgrade, revealing to Crosscut that he did not see himself as worthy, as he suspected that he was once one of the Liegemen and was involved in the bombing of Diadem. {{storylink|Crosscut (G1)#Masterpiece|''Masterpiece'' Crosscut profile}}

===Precursor World===
A [[Primus Vanguard|Warrior of the Seven Lights]] resembling Cordon was a member of the [[White Order]] of the [[Primus Vanguard]]. He was a part of his commander [[White Gallant Convoy]]'s retinue as they drove to the Order's headquarters on the [[White Planet]]. {{storylink|God Neptune comic 2}}

He transforms from a robot into an unlicensed approximation of a Lamborghini Countach LP500S (most conspicuously missing the spoilers, but also having 5 mm holes back there ''just in case''). His engine block can be used as a pair of rocket boosters or as a gun.

: Cordon's translucent chest/windshield was originally supposed to be molded in smoke gray with the flashers painted metallic opaque red, but was changed into colorless clear with translucent red paint flashers for the final product.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=The opaque lightbar on Cordon will become clear for the final release. https://t.co/z68Mp98EIn https://t.co/IGruqeKqUX https://t.co/0hF0LKIrBb|link=https://twitter.com/tfwiki/status/1300838762851770368|name=TFWiki|site=Twitter|year=2020|month=09|day=01|(defunct=)}}</ref> Despite the windshield's underside ''not'' being painted like his mold-mates, it can ''still'' be difficult to slot his windshield/roof in place for car mode.

: Though this mold shares much of its engineering and transformation scheme with ''Earthrise'' [[Wheeljack (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Wheeljack]], it is ''not'' a [[retool]] of that mold.

: He was only available in a two-pack with mold-mate [[Spin-Out (G1)#Generations Selects|Spin-Out]]. They share a single instruction sheet, which nonetheless shows both individual toys' transformations in full... and swaps their names around. Oops.

: Unfortunately, some parts of Cordon's unpainted white plastic, including his fists, knees, and the areas either side of his crotch, are prone to [[photodegradation]].

:''[[Missing Link]]'' Cordon is a minor retool of his wavemate [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Missing Link|Sunstreaker]], he is a direct recreation of his [[Diaclone]] toy, with mechanical tweaks that give him a much wider range of articulation like the rest of the ''Missing Link'' line, rotation at the neck and elbow, outward leg movement, knees, and an ankle tilt. As a Diaclone character never released in the original Transformers toyline, he isn't marketed as an Autobot, though a classic [[Rubsign]] is hidden underneath his left foot and he retains Autobot insignias on his sticker sheet. In addition to all the accessories included with the original G1 toy, Cordon comes packed in with a ''teeny-tiny'' [[Diaclone|Dianaut]] figure being a Police Officer which can sit in Cordon's driver seat. In a cute bit of slavish accuracy, Cordon flips the sticker detailing under his engine block from Sunstreaker, to reflect the correct orientation of those stickers on his original ''Diaclone'' release.

* Cordon began as the [[1982]] ''Diaclone'' mecha figure [[:File:Sunstreaker-diaclone.jpg|No. 3 "Countach LP500S Patrol Car Type"]]. When [[Hasbro]] decided to use ''Diaclone'' molds for their [[1984]] [[The Transformers (toyline)|''The Transformers'']] toyline, No. 3 was skipped over, with only [[Spin-Out (G1)|No. 1]] being released in a [[Sunstreaker (G1)|new deco]]. No. 3's likeness would later be considered for a potential [[2015]] exclusive toy ([[#Generations|see above]]) and finally resurrected as a [[2018]] ''Masterpiece'' retool of Sunstreaker—which ''Masterpiece'' fiction would imply could be the same physical entity as the original ''Diaclone'' mecha.
* Cordon's coloration was used in the [[2005 IDW continuity|2005 IDW comics]] for some of the [[Machination]]'s [[Sunstreaker clone]]s.
* The Cobalt Sentries' attempt to recruit Cordon makes a pun on the name of the Cordon Bleu ("Blue Ribbon") of the French {{w|Order of the Holy Spirit}} (which also inspired the name of {{w|Cordon bleu (dish)|the Swiss dish}}).

'''The Autobots face off against the Emperor of Cyber City, Starscream!'''

==Synopsis==
[[File:Cyberworld_Ep6_StarscreamDescends.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.67|You know Screamer's imagining "One Winged Angel" playing as he does this.]]

As they sneak through [[Cyber City (Cyberworld)|Cyber City]] by holographically hiding among the many, many statues of [[Starscream (Cyberworld)|Starscream]], [[Mirage (Cyberworld)|Mirage]] explains the predicament to [[Optimus Prime (Cyberworld)|Optimus Prime]], [[Bumblebee (Cyberworld)|Bumblebee]], and [[Elita-1 (Cyberworld)|Elita-1]]. They don't trust each other, but they all want off Cyberworld, and while the trio know what they want and where to find it, Mirage holds the know-how to actually getting it. Fighting through drones to reach a computer terminal, Mirage hacks the system and locates a map with all the drops and missions, which would allow them to reach any ahead of all the other competitors. Mirage also finds schematics of [[Scorponok (Cyberworld)|Scorponok]]. When they try to download it onto their own drive, however, the system is locked down by a broadcast of Starscream, which fries the data. They run for it, escaping the building and hiding behind a holographic wall.

Unfortunately, just as Mirage tries to cockily celebrate saving them, Starscream approaches from above with a flotilla of drones. A mission portal opens up, and the four allies run into it, closely followed by Starscream (but not before he leaves his crown behind for safekeeping), transporting them to a high, levitating platform. The mission title is "Last Bot Standing" - the last bot in the area wins the energon. Mirage decides to cut his losses and go by himself, taking to the skies, but is followed closely by Starscream, who grabs him and tries to tear his wings off, before throwing him back down. Elita-1 and Bumblebee grab an upgrade, which gives Elita a pair of rocket boosters that she uses to knock out Starscream momentarily. Prime volunteers to concede, as only one of them can win, although both Bee and Elita declare "Not it!" Starscream takes this chance to remind them he is still in the game, and as Elita's upgrades wear off, he grabs her and throws her off the edge. She's saved by Mirage, but this is only momentary, as Starscream just throws them both off, this time eliminating them both.

Inspired by his taunting, Optimus and Bumblebee pretend to fight to lure Starscream into complacency. Jubilant at having seemingly turned the allies against each other, he flies in to claim victory, but Optimus grapples him and jumps them both off the arena, leaving Bee the winner. Back on the ground, Starscream swears revenge, grabbing his crown and flying away angrily, only to be hit with the energon drain at just the right time to have him fly into his own statue. As the winner, Bumblebee's laser weapon is upgraded as the others are drained. Elita-1 thanks Mirage for saving her, and he offers to stay in Cyber City and try hacking the system again when things cool off, although in the meantime, the allies need another plan to gain strength. Seeing [[Snarl (Cyberworld)|a silhouette]] in the distance, Optimus Prime says he has an idea of where to find some strength.

==Quotes==

"I often wondered what a Starscream rule would look like. This is way worse."
:—'''Bumblebee''' isn't fond of Starscream's municipal decor.

'''Mirage:''' Okay. I don't like you, and you don't like me. 
'''Optimus Prime:''' I never said that. 
'''Elita-1:''' I did. 
'''Bumblebee:''' Eh, I'm undecided.

"You don't have to do this. We always have a choice." 
"Can you go five seconds without some patronizing speech?"
:—'''Bumblebee''' and '''Optimus Prime''' never took acting lessons back on Cybertron.

==Notes==

===Continuity notes===
* Snarl is still following the group from a distance, as per [[Smoke & Mirrors|last time]].

===Character levels===
* None seen

===Transformers references===
* Optimus Prime refers to a schematic of Scorponok as his [[Tech Spec]]s.
* Emperor Starscream's crown is designed after [[Starscream (G1)|''Generation 1'' Starscream's]] crown from ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''.
* The mission's name, "Last Bot Standing", is also the name of [[IDW Publishing]]'s [[Transformers: Last Bot Standing|swansong for their Transformers output]].
* Optimus Prime's "One shall stand, but two shall fall" is riffing off the usual "One shall fall".
* Optimus Prime says "Holy Heterodyne", an exclamation coined back in "[[S.O.S. Dinobots]]" and more recently used by [[Wheeljack (ES)|Wheeljack]] in "[[Togetherness]]".

===Real world references===
* Some of the translated signs in Cyber City reveal text that simply reads "CONSUME" and "OBEY", which may be referencing the similarly hidden messages on signs in the film ''{{w|They Live}}''.
* In a rather overt nod to the (often nonsensical) portrayal of computer hacking in most popular media, Mirage refers to his hacking methods as "infodumping the jargon".
* The mission is referred to as both "Bot Royale" and "Last Bot Standing", Transformers-isations of "Battle Royale" and "Last Man Standing". These are both common multiplayer modes in video games where the objective is to be the last player surviving out a given number.

===Animation and technical errors===
*The credits list Starscream as being voiced by [[Jack Ayres]] instead of [[Shogo Miyakita]].

===Trivia===
* As you might expect by now, this was initially uploaded in a combined video with [[Smoke & Mirrors|the previous one]] with an SEO-baiting title ("Bot Battle Royale!"). The individual title comes from series writer [[Ali Lightfoot|Ali Lightfoot's]] twitter feed. <ref>{{citesocial|quote=2 hours until Transformers: CYBERWORLD episode 6 "Screamer City Arena" drops on the TransformersOfficial YT channel!|link=https://x.com/HedlesChkn/status/1959211406470861249|name=Ali Lightfoot|site=Twitter|year=2025|month=08|day=23}}</ref>
* While Starscream still has his Decepticon insignia, it's been painted over with a new red insignia based ''(shockingly enough)'' on his own face.
* Originally, the script called for Starscream to try and sway Mirage to his side, leading to his save of Elita-1 being more impactful than the on-screen version. This was cut for time. <ref>{{citesocial|quote=Originally, there were actually some moments where Starscream tries to get Mirage to side with him, that we had to cut for time. 🥲 The Elita save was much more of a pivotal choice in that version.|link=https://x.com/HedlesChkn/status/1959271694608056441|name=Ali Lightfoot|site=Twitter|year=2025|month=08|day=23}}</ref>

[[File:R-BladeCardArt.jpg|thumb|250px|A Jetfire homage and a Jetfire redeco, which as Jetfire had a different color scheme. Still with us?]]
'''R-Blade''' (アールブレイド ''Āru Bureido'') is a member of the [[Cyberjet]]s, and works as a consul at [[Autobot City (G1)|Autobot City]], working on matters of diplomacy with the [[human]]s of [[Earth]]. When pressed into battle, his "Sonic Lance" missiles are loaded with a wide variety of warheads, giving him a great many combat options. Thankfully, he has the skill to properly exploit those options.

He's a big [[Jetfire (G1)|Jetfire]] fanboy, which explains his colors.<ref>''Robotmasters'' R-Blade bio</ref>

==Fiction==
===Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity===
====''Robotmasters'' comic====
[[File:Robotmasters1 r blade megatron.jpg|thumb|left]]
R-Blade responded to [[Mirage (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Mirage]]'s distress signal as he was being attacked by the time-displaced [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]] Megatron. R-Blade was quickly knocked aside, but managed to get up and contribute a volley of firepower that drove off the smirking dino. {{storylink|Clash! The Two Leaders}} {{storylink|The New Battle Begins!}}

Later, R-Blade was the unlucky Autobot taking a group beating from [[Psycho-Orb]], [[Air Hunter]], and [[Tow-Line (RID)|Wrecker Hook]]. However, [[Optimus Primal (BW)/Beast Wars cartoon continuity|Optimus Primal]] appeared through a space-time rift and saved his hash. {{storylink|To War! Optimus Primal}}

R-Blade was witness to [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] upgrading himself with [[Black body (technology)|black body]] technology. As the process was taking place, Optimus suddenly begun to convulse in pain, and R-Blade noticed [[Buzzsaw (G1)|Buzz Saw]] slipping away from the laboratory. The Autobots were soon to learn that the Decepticons had sabotaged the Autobots' experiments, and stolen the black body process for their own nefarious ends! {{storylink|Black Body (prose)|Black Body}}

While out on flying patrol with Optimus Primal and [[Delta Seeker]], the trio were approached by [[Starscream (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Starscream]], [[Wingstun]], and [[X-Gunner]], who apparently wanted to have a test of air-speed. Leaving Optimus in their wake, the five jet-form Transformers took off, with the [[Decepticon]]s ahead. R-Blade used a special spinning technique to get ahead of the Decepticons, and generated a smokescreen, giving Delta Seeker the chance to knock all three out of the sky. {{storylink|Through Sea and Sky: The World's Fastest Race}}

And then...the Autobots and Decepticons battled for three days and nights. The Autobots won. Everybody went home. {{storylink|And Then}}

====''Legends'' comic====
[[File:Transformers Legends BusinessTripEdition LG06 SharkMode.jpg|thumb|]]
In [[2004]] while handling a piece of [[solitarium]] ore together with [[Jetfire (G1)|Jetfire]] and basking in the joy of working alongside his idol, R-Blade got caught up in an attack by [[Sky-Byte (RID)|Sky-Byte]], who blew up the solitarium. Jetfire ordered him to run to keep him from getting caught in the explosion and sent to [[Legends World|another dimension]]. {{storylink|Legends Comic: Bonus Edition Vol. 6|Bonus Edition Vol. 6}} When Jetfire returned to the [[G1 World]] with [[Roadbuster (G1)|Roadbuster]] and [[Whirl (G1)|Whirl]] in tow, R-Blade was there to gleefully welcome back his senior. {{storylink|Jumpstarter Chapter}}

====Metrowars====
In [[2035]] while R-Blade was stationed at [[Metroplex (G1)|Scramble City]] during its rebuilding following an attack from [[Metrotitan (G1)|Metrotitan]], the Decepticons attacked again. With his idol, Jetfire, and [[Delta Seeker]], R-Blade helped defend the city. {{Storylink|Metrowars}}

===''Robotmasters'' 3D diorama comic===
R-Blade was part of a group of Autobots who aided the city of [[Athens]] in preparing for the [[Olympics]].

:''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' DK-2 Guard is a ''[[Transformers: Legacy|Legacy]]''-branded black and red [[redeco]] of ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Earthrise]]'' [[Ironhide (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Ironhide]], who in turn is an extensive retooling of the ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' [[Ironhide (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Ironhide toy]]. DK-2 Guard transforms into a van similar to Ironhide's original Nissan mode. This toy features a roof piece that converts into a shield in robot mode and can also become a giant four-barreled cannon. For a little extra firepower, DK-2 Guard also comes with a smaller "blaster". Conveniently, this gun can be stored on the underside of the shield, tucking away neatly in van mode.

:Similarly to Ironhide, the figure's robot mode feet stick out conspicuously from the van mode's backside, but it is less obvious due to it being the same black color as the rest of the figure.

:DK-2 Guard was exclusive to [[Hasbro Pulse]] in the United States, Canada, and the UK.

==Notes==
[[File:G1toy protect black ironhide.jpg|thumb|Unfortunately not a guardian for ''Diddy's Kong Quest''.]]

* DK-2 Guard is based on the original [[1982]] ''[[Diaclone]]'' No. 2 Onebox Cherry Vanette toy that was colored red to become [[Ironhide (G1)/toys#Toys|Ironhide]] when the mold was used in the first year of the original ''[[The Transformers (toyline)|Transformers]]'' toyline. This ''Diaclone'' coloration was eventually released in [[2008]] under the ''Transformers'' brand as an [[e-HOBBY]] exclusive for the ''[[Transformers Encore|Encore]]'' toyline. (Unlike Guard, this release was characterized as a variation of Ironhide, dubbed "[[Ironhide (G1)/toys#black|Ironhide Protect Black]]".) Guard's alphanumeric designation, "DK-2", is derived from the ID number of the ''[[Diakron]]'' release of the ''Diaclone'' toy. Fellow ''Generations Selects'' toy [[Breaker (G1)#Toys|DK-3 Breaker]] would follow a similar theme. (The "missing" DK-1 would have been a red [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#War_for_Cybertron:_Earthrise|Sunstreaker]], which had already been produced two years earlier as [[Spin-Out (G1)#Generations_Selects|Spin-Out]].)
* In case you are wondering, Guard's deco layout does not precisely match how ''Shattered Glass'' [[Ironhide (SG)|Ironhide]] was coloured in [[IDW Publishing]]'s 2021 [[Transformers: Shattered Glass (IDW)|comic series]], but all things considered, it is reasonably close.

With the evergrowing [[Generation 1 continuity family]], '''[[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]]''' continues to receive more toys—the largest number of toys in fact—for any single ''[[Transformers brand|Transformers]]'' character!

For the sake of finding an easy and definitive split from the main toy article, we have opted to make this page strictly for the various ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]''-branded toylines, as this appears to be the brand [[Hasbro]] will likely continue adding Generation 1 characters to for the foreseeable future.

{{toydesigner|[[Joe Kyde]] (Hasbro)}}

:Part of the third wave of 2012-onwards ''Generations'' Legends Class toys, ''[[Thrilling 30]]'' Optimus Prime is a new mold that is roughly the same size as a ''[[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]'' Commander Class toy. Both his truck and [[robot mode]] are based on his [[Don Figueroa]]-designed body from [[IDW Publishing|IDW]]'s [[The Transformers (IDW)|2009-2011 comic series]], and features [[5 mm post|5 mm-compatible]] hands and roof. He comes with an [[Ion blaster#Legends|Ion Blaster]] which has both 5mm and 3mm posts.

: He comes with "[[Roller (G1)#Generations|Autobot Roller]]", who can transform into a six-wheel armored SUV, a robot with [[C joint|3 mm-compatible]] hands, and a weapon with a 5 mm handle. He has a 5 mm hole in vehicle mode and a 3 mm hole in weapon mode for mounting the Ion Blaster.

: Not depicted in the instructions or stock photos, Roller can attach to Prime in vehicle mode via two tabs on the vehicle front which slot into two corresponding slots on Prime's feet. Another undocumented feature is that the butt of the Ion Blaster can be inserted between the barrels of Roller's weapon mode to form a longer weapon. Also not shown in the instructions but depicted on the stock photo on the card-back is that Prime's shoulderpads can be rotated up; the intended positioning for this is notched, although you can position them at other angles.

: The stock photo of Optimus' vehicle mode is slightly mistransformed: his head slightly sticks out from the truck roof, which prevents the front windows to clamp together. This mold was also used to make ''Thrilling 30'' [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#Generations|Nemesis Prime]], and retooled into ''Combiner Wars'' [[Huffer (G1)#Generations|Huffer]] and [[Pipes (G1)#Generations|Autobot Pipes]].

{{toydesigner|[[Joe Kyde]] (Hasbro)}}

:Part of the fifth wave of 2012-onwards ''Generations'' Deluxe Class toys, ''Thrilling 30'' Orion Pax is a new mold with a robot mode inspired by [[Guido Guidi]]'s [[:File:SpotlightBlurr-Optimus.jpg|design for the character, originally seen]] in ''[[Spotlight: Blurr]]''. Some liberties have been taken with the original concept to facilitate his truck mode, which is a new design not based on the Guidi art. He comes with his [[Ion blaster#Deluxe|Ion Blaster]] and an [[Energon-axe#Deluxe|Energon Axe]] with a transparent red-orange blade, both of which can peg onto 5 mm ports on his hands and vehicle rear sides. Although not depicted on the instructions, the Ion Blaster can also peg into the hole in the larger blade of the Energon Axe. Even though the light-piping eyes are neutered by light blue paint, the side grooves are still able to light up as the paint only focuses on the central optic.

:The American release is packed in with a copy of IDW's ''[[Omega's Conundrum|Spotlight: Orion Pax]]'', which sports a 'Hasbro Exclusive Cover' cropped from the [[Clayton Crain]] [[:File:Spotlight OrionPax cvrRI.jpg|retailer incentive cover]] for the issue. In Europe and Canada, the figure was released without the Spotlight.

:Depending on how many painted layers on the Energon axe's hilt, inserting it onto any hand may cause it to scratch off.

:Most of the first-wave Orion Pax toys released in monolingual English [[packaging]] sport a bizarre [[quality control#Packaging images and labelling|error]]: The [[package art|character art]] on the side of the cardboard insert inside the blister bubble has the character art of Orion's [[wave]]-mate [[Megatron (G1)/Generations toys#T30Deluxe|Megatron]] superimposed over Orion's own art.

**''Accessories:'' Two blasters (combine into large rifle)
{{toydesigner|[[John Warden]] (Hasbro)}}

: Part of the first wave of ''Generations: [[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Voyager Class toys, this is a bigger, bulkier incarnation of Optimus Prime with a striking resemblance to Ginrai. He comes with two blasters which he holds via 5 mm post. One of the guns is based on his trademark Ion Blaster, and both weapons store on the back of his vehicle mode as a makeshift engine block. His torso mode has several details that appear to be influenced by [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Energon|''Energon'' Optimus Prime]]'s super mode, including the head, chest, and thighs. In particular, the chest details are modeled after the [[Spark of Combination]]. He also features two pair of fake windows on his robot and gestalt chest halves. The combiner head can be used as a robot mode head if you're feeling silly.

:Optimus suffers from a design flaw that many other Voyager Class figures in the ''Combiner Wars'' line experience: the detents, or "click points", on the heavily-ratcheted outward motion of his hips (which also form the hips of his torso mode) are few in number and very far apart. As a result, Prime's legs have great difficulty assuming the natural "A-stance" formation that the angled design of his foot sculpt seems to have been meant to accommodate. Likewise, when forming the torso of Ultra Prime, the interactions of the knee-lock mechanism and the hip detents almost always force Ultra Prime's legs into either an awkwardly knock-kneed arrangement or an equally awkward, and often unstable, bow-legged posture (as seen in the image to the right) that prevents Ultra Prime from standing flat-footed. Unlike Motormaster, this version of Optimus was the only one to not receive the improved hip ratchets implemented in its future releases in some shape or form by Hasbro, though they would be used for the Battle Core redeco later in the line. If one wishes, the improved hip ratchets from a relevant release can be used to replace Prime's first edition ratchets to effectively fix him.

:Being a ''Combiner Wars'' Voyager, Prime is naturally capable of transforming into a torso mode to combine with any 4 Deluxe Class ''Combiner Wars''-style toys, though his packaging call-out has him form Ultra Prime by combining him with Deluxe Class [[Skydive (G1 Aerialbot)#Generations|Skydive]] and [[Alpha Bravo]] as the arms, and with [[Fireflight (G1)#Generations|Firefly]] and [[Drag Strip (G1)#Generations|Decepticon Drag Strip]] as the legs. He can combine with [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Generations|Sunstreaker]], [[Mirage (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Mirage]], [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Generations|Prowl]], and [[Ironhide (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Ironhide]] if one wishes to have an IDW-accurate Optimus Maximus.

:Unfortunately, Optimus Prime is also the weakest link of the gestalt combination, due to a number of design failures attributed to his torso mode. The square holes-and-tabs used to secure the arms together when in torso mode are too weak to remain locked in place (though a very small amount of copies can secure the arm well), and are prone to falling out of position should an attached arm be moved. The torso mode's skirt plate is also attached to the stomach rather than the pelvis, rendering the waist swivel nearly worthless due to the skirt obstructing articulation.

:Though Optimus's wave was scheduled for a first quarter 2015 release, it arrived on U.S. store shelves in late 2014.

:Optimus comes packaged with a collector's card featuring art from the initial release of the ''[[Transformers Legends (mobile game)|Transformers Legends]]'' mobile game. The mold would be retooled several times, resulting in [[Motormaster (G1)#Combiner Wars|Motormaster]], [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#CWBC|Battle Core Optimus Prime]], and [[Toxitron (G1)#Generations|Wrecker Toxitron]].

**'''3 of 5: [[Optimus Maximus (G1)|Optimus Maximus]]'''
**''Accessories:'' Two blasters (combine into large rifle)

:"Battle Core Optimus Prime" is a white redeco and slight retool of the previous ''Combiner Wars'' Optimus figure. According to the Hasbro panel at [[BotCon 2015]], his new head is based on Star Convoy (see above). For some reason, his deco appears to be influenced by [[Nova Prime]].

:The figure features newly redesigned hip ratchets to make both robot and combiner mode stable, which were also installed in both TakaraTomy's [[Motormaster (G1)#Unite Warriors 2|Motormaster]], [[Grand Scourge#Toys|Grand Scourge]], and a revision wave of Hasbro's Motormaster. The pegs that Legends Class Rodimus (or Blackjack) attach to have also been slightly modified to provide a tighter fit, making the latter toy much less prone to falling out.

:Battle Core Optimus Prime can combine with any Deluxe Class toys with the ''Combiner Wars''-styled joint—but, of course, he is intended to be combined with [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Generations|Sunstreaker]], [[Mirage (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Mirage]], [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Generations|Prowl]], and [[Ironhide (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Ironhide]] to form [[Optimus Maximus (G1)#Generations|Optimus Maximus]]. He can also combine with ''Unite Warriors'' [[Streetwise (G1)#Unite Warriors 2|Streetwise]], [[Groove (G1)#Unite Warriors 2|Groove]], [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Unite Warriors|Prowl]], and ''Combiner Wars'' [[Rook (CW)#Generations|Rook]] to form White Convoy Grand Prime, as seen in the [[God Neptune comic 2|''Generations Selects'' Special Comic promoting God Neptune]].

:Battle Core Optimus Prime comes packaged with a collector's card based on his packaging art. the prototype printed on the back of the box & the stock photos, and the CG model in the instructions had him possessing a single tampographed/stickered symbol on his left arm.

:He and the last three waves of ''Combiner Wars'' Deluxe and Voyager figures later showed up in the U.S. at TJ Maxx at reduced prices.

:As a part of the third and fourth wave promotion in Hasbro's Asian markets, a free sticker sheet for the [[Protectobot (G1)|Protectobot]]s and [[Optimus Maximus (G1)|Optimus Maximus]] was given out when purchasing any four Deluxe Class toys from those waves. As such, Battle Core Optimus Prime was given Generation 1 toy-esque stickers for the owner to apply if they wanted.<ref>[https://news.tfw2005.com/2015/08/28/transformers-combiner-wars-sticker-sheet-for-wave-3-and-4-figures-300471 Protectobot and Optimus Maximus sticker promotion on TFW2005]</ref>

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Cyber Battalion, 2015)

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)#PrimeWarsTrilogyAsian|Generations: Cyber Series]]'' Cyber Battalion figures, Optimus Prime is a roughly Voyager-sized figure and transforms from a truck (which is based on the ''Generations Thrilling 30'' Legends Class Optimus Prime figure) into a robot in just 7 simple steps. The figure's transformation engineering had taken cues from the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#2010Legend|''Reveal the Shield'' Legends Class Optimus Prime]] figure, while it still retains the same ol' articulation.

:As with other earlier Cyber Series figures, Optimus Prime had a rather strange release cycle. At first, he only retailed exclusively in Asia and Latin America, with the closest to a U.S. release being in limited quantities from online retailer BigBadToyStore.com. He did, however, end up being available in the Universal Studios Theme Park, and also later as a Walgreens exclusive.

Surprisingly, he does have a reasonable amount of articulation, including a balljointed head and hinged joints for his arms, shoulders and legs, plus lateral hinges for his feet. His head includes [[light-piping]] and, unlike other Cyber Series toys, his truck windows have ''actual'' transparent plastic rather than just being merely painted.

He comes in an altered packaging that replaces the first version's painted [[prototype]] [[stock photography|stock photos]] with CG renders depicting the new deco, and also features a new Hasbro product code number, thus making him officially a separate product rather than a drastic running change [[variant]].

:Interestingly, the side profile of the cab transitions from red to blue with a flame-like design, obviously nodding towards his movieverse counterpart.

:Part of Hasbro's ''[[Transformers: Platinum Edition|Platinum Edition]]'' offerings for 2016 intended to commemorate the 30th anniversary of ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', this Optimus Prime is yet another redeco of the ''[[#Classics|Classics]]'' Voyager toy. Rather than the [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]] colors like the ''Age of Extinction'' 2-pack figure, the toy's deco is very similar to the ''Classics'' release, with some changes and omissions: his blue plastic is a dark metallic sheen, his knee's yellow detailing was removed, his small Autobot symbol tampograph was placed on his right shoulder, and his larger one is placed on his energy unit. His side door/arm kibble is left unpainted. According to [[Mark Weber]], this was meant to represent his abdominal area being torn in the movie's battle. (Yeah, we have no idea how it works, since the "battle damage" parts end up on his ''arms'' in robot mode.)

:Both his robot and vehicle mode [[stock photography|stock photos]] depict him slightly mistransformed.

:''Platinum Edition'' Optimus Prime was only available as part of a 2-pack with [[Megatron (G1)/Generations toys#Platinum Edition|Megatron]], named "One Shall Stand, One Shall Fall" after Optimus Prime's famous line in the movie. In the United States and Canada, this set was officially released as an [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] exclusive. It was also available in several of Hasbro's Asian markets (namely the Philippines and Singapore; it's currently unknown whether it was exclusive to any particular stores there or not). In Australia, it was sold at Myer stores, whereas in the United Kingdom, it was both sold at [[Toys"R"Us]] stores and available via Tesco's website (but never found in stores). Surprisingly, it was (and still is) a common find in Brazilian online stores.

:Ironically, despite being a redeco of a small yet complex adult collectible, the figure is marked as "for ages 8 and up". Hope you didn't lose the small parts here.

{{toydesigner|[[John Warden]] (Hasbro), [[Takashi Kunihiro]] (TakaraTomy)|[[Emiliano Santalucia]] (concept artist), [[Marcelo Matere]] (packaging artist)}}

:A heavy retool of ''Combiner Wars'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Generations|Ultra Magnus]], this Optimus Prime is based on the Powermaster Optimus Prime toy from 1988. Despite this, Hi-Q (now renamed 'Autobot Apex', presumably for trademark reasons) doesn't form the engine on Prime's chest; instead, he transforms into a de-faceplated version of the original Powermaster Optimus Prime cab robot head, over which a helmet slides during transformation to complete the Powermaster Prime look. In all three of Optimus Prime's modes are various pegs and seats with which Titan Master figures can interact. Like other Leader Class figures, his base mode can connect to other ''Titan Returns'' figures with base modes.

:Most notably in terms of new tooling, the panels on the undersides of Powermaster Optimus Prime's forearms feature slots under the fists, which allow the guns to tab in and be held much more stably than with Ultra Magnus. And due to the amount of empty space in the cab area in vehicle mode, Powermaster Prime can fully transform without the need to remove his head.

:Powermaster Optimus Prime also comes with a collector's card based on his packaging art.

:In an undocumented feature, because he comes with the same rifles as ''Combiner Wars Ultra Magnus'', his weapons can be combined into a huge, multi-barreled rifle. His instructions show that one of the two Titan Master seat guns can peg onto the top of his chest plate in base mode, but are unclear on exactly ''how''. The tab on the chest plate plugs into the hole where the Titan Master's feet peg in. However, in doing so the Titan Master will no longer fit. Due to the extra panels that were added to the legs, Optimus has trouble standing flat on both feet. Fortunately, this doesn't have any serious effect on the toy's stability due to the size of the feet. His gray plastic comes tinged somewhat, perhaps as a result of a [[Photodegradation|yellowed]] specimen of the original Powermaster figure (such as the one on [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#PMOP|this very page]]) being used as a reference. He comes with two different Autobot symbols: The ones on the shoulders are a Movie variant, while the trailer features a ''Generation 1''-styled insignia.

:[[Fortress Maximus (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Fortress Maximus]]'s instructions depict him as part of the [[Cybertron City (TR)|Cybertron City]] combination. Meanwhile, the "Siege on Cybertron" instructions show him as a part of the [[Nemesis Command]] combination, albeit mislabeled as [[Blaster (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Autobot Blaster]].

:This mold was further retooled as ''[[Transformers Legends (franchise)|Legends]]'' [[Ginrai (human)#Legends|Super Ginrai]], which was redecoed into Siege On Cybertron [[Ginrai (robot)#Titans Return|Magnus Prime]].

{{toydesigner|[[John Warden]] (Hasbro)}}

:This Optimus Prime is a Voyager-sized Triple Changer mold, which transforms from robot to [[Octane (G1)|Octane]]-ish tanker truck to plane. His robot mode is heavily based on ''Generation 2'' [[#LaserOptimusPrime|Laser Optimus Prime]], whilst the deco appears to draw from Star Convoy. His Titan Master partner [[Diac#Toys|Diac]] transforms into his head (but any Titan Master figure is compatible). Like all ''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' Voyager class figures, he has built-in mechanisms to "bulk up" his noggin. In his case, these are spring-loaded pylons. His robot mode also features fake truck windows.

:This iteration of the mold and its redecoes exhibit a minor design flaw: there are two tabs on the plane mode's wings that prevent the truck mode's trailer from fully closing at the rear. Ostensibly, this can be rectified by setting the wings slightly askew so they can properly flatten against each other. However, this leads to some holes on each wing not being lined up with some corresponding pegs on the trailer.

:The stock photo is slightly mistransformed: the wings in jet mode should sit further forward to better resemble a real commercial jet. The packaging art and instructions show the correct orientation. This error is present in photography for all reuses of this variant of this mold.

:This mold was redecoed into ''Legends'' [[Scourge (RID)#Voyager|Black Convoy]] and ''Street Fighter X Transformers'' [[Ryu#Toys|Ryu]], and retooled into [[Octane#Titans Return|Octone]]. Beginning with this wave, Hasbro changed the standard packaging design for ''Titans Return'' Voyagers from "Autobot" style to "Decepticon" style regardless of character faction.

:This mold would've been redecoed as "Action Master" Optimus Prime with a redecoed Infinitus Titan Master for the BotCon 2017 "Action on Hydrus Four" set that never came to be.

:''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' "Evolution Optimus Prime" transforms from a truck with a trailer into a robot and back. The truck cab transforms into his "Orion Pax" form based on his appearance in the Generation 1 episode "[[War Dawn (episode)|War Dawn]]", and he is able to form the core of Optimus Prime's robot mode. His trailer forms Prime's entire body, sharing a noticeable amount of details with MP-10 mold, most notably an almost identical head sculpt. He is the first non-''Masterpiece'' ''Generations'' G1 Optimus Prime figure to include removable [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#Power of the Primes|Matrix of Leadership]] accessory, which is stored in his chest in the 'Evolved' form. The center of his Matrix of Leadership can be replaced with any [[Prime Master#Toys|Prime Master]]. His [[ion blaster]] can be split into two weapons for Orion Pax to use, while also store on Optimus Prime's back via visible [[5 mm post]]s of Orion Pax's hands, though this is undocumented in the instructions. The Takara version of the mold lacks the production numbers located at his right shins. Depending on the individual copy, Optimus Prime is prone to having a number of quality control issues: ranging from two left/right arms and/or legs/feet on the evolution armor, to lacking stickers on the trailer pieces. On the other hand, the trailer can also be towed by any other figure with a compatible hitch.

{{toydesigner|[[Aaron Gray]] (Hasbro), [[Yūya Ōnishi]] (TakaraTomy)|[[AJ Piejko-Brown]] (packaging)}}

:Part of the first wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' Voyager Class figures, Optimus Prime transforms from robot to [[For safety reasons|short-smokestacked]] Cybertronian armored truck and back. For an inexpensive mass-retail release, Optimus's robot mode is very accurate to his design from the original cartoon (albeit with added details) and also features excellent poseability on par with a ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' toy, resulting in a version of the character that gives collectors lots of bang for their buck. He includes two weapons compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]]—the "W-50 Dual-Mech Energon Strikeshield," which is an axe that transforms into a shield, and the "W-M3 RF [[Ion blaster|Ion Blaster]]." Both weapons can combine to form the "Sentrystrike Ultra-Blaster." An argument could be made that being able to flip around Optimus's underarm kibble to form underslung gatling guns is an undocumented gimmick. Optimus Prime also features "battle damage" paint applications on several parts of his body, as well as multiple hardpoints all over himself and his weapons to accommodate "Fire Blasts" from the [[Battle Master]]s assortment, which can be used to simulate blaster fire or explosions.

:In vehicle mode, opening the figure's windows shows the [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Matrix of Leadership]] molded into the plastic behind the windows. Due to the transformation, the Matrix doesn't end up in the chest in robot mode. Despite being a Voyager-scale figure, the truck mode is considerably small, in scale with a Legends-sized figure. Whether through coincidence or design, it's possible to fit a ''Power of the Primes'' Matrix core (and by extension, a [[Prime Master]] or [[Titan Master]]) in his chest.

:An additional, undocumented but confirmed third "hover truck" mode exists, which is achieved by folding all of his wheels under his vehicle mode. While the back wheels don't lock in anywhere, the two front wheels actually have small tabs that plug into slots on the back of the wheel sections that aren't used for either of his other modes.<ref>[http://www.toyboxsoapbox.com/2018/11/13/transformers-siege-voyager-optimus-prime-review/ "At some convention somewhere one Hasbro rep let slip that Siege Optimus Prime also had a hidden hover truck mode."] on Toybox Soapbox</ref>

:There is a message written in [[Cybertronian language|Cybertronian letters]] on Optimus Prime's box art, which reads "LIGHT THE DARKEST HOUR."

:While Optimus greatly resembles the inner robot of ''Siege'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Ultra Magnus]], he is actually a completely different mold and therefore not compatible with the [[Magnus Armor]]. This mold was later used to make [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#War for Cybertron: Siege|Nemesis Prime]]. A large number of parts of this figure were reused for the ''Earthrise'' Optimus Prime figure released in 2020. Due to this, the trailer packaged with the ''Earthrise'' figure is fully compatible with the ''Siege'' figure's truck mode.

:Depending on the figure's individual quality control, the truck's roof may not sit securely flush in vehicle mode, notably on the rear right side.

:While Hasbro and TakaraTomy's releases of the toy are almost identical, the battle damage paint apps on the latter's shoulders and legs are slightly altered in size.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=シージのオプティマス。右が海外版、左が日本版で後ろが海外前が日本版。汚れのタンポ印刷も違うバリエーションなのかねぇ(´･ω･`) #TFTOYの面白さを伝え隊 https://t.co/g3lMOROVdO|link=https://twitter.com/Alfes2010/status/1099375629361795072|name=Alfes2010|site=Twitter|year=2019|month=02|day=23|(defunct=)}}</ref>

*'''Galaxy Upgrade Optimus Prime''' (Leader Class, [[2019]])
**''Hasbro ID number:'' '''WFC-S40'''
**''TakaraTomy ID number'': '''SG-37'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[November 23]], 2019
**''Hidden message code'': '''CONVOY'''
**''Accessories:'' 5 "JF-50 Twinblast [[Super Mode|Galaxy Pack]]" armor pieces, 2 "W-30 Magnetic Inducer Launchers," "JF-15 Gravity Force Laser," 2 front wheels/armguards

:Part of the second wave ''Siege'' Leader Class figures, "Galaxy Upgrade Optimus Prime" is an extensive retool of the same line's [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Ultra Magnus]], taking heavy design cues from [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|''Cybertron'' Optimus Prime]] (the Japanese series name being "''Galaxy Force''," which is referenced in the name). He transforms into a heavily armed fire truck like the ''Cybertron'' figure, but with a Cybertronian aesthetic. The two "W-30 Magnetic Inducer Launchers" are unpainted blasters from ''Siege'' Ultra Magnus, and as such, mirror the detailing placed just behind ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Ultra Magnus (RID)|Ultra Magnus]]'s cab. Their hexagonal tips resembling ''Cybertron'' Optimus Prime's Super Mode leg cannons were likely a foresight for this retooling, but are molded in black rather than grey likely due to [[gang-molding]]. Optimus Prime also features "battle damage" paint applications on several parts of his body, as well as multiple hardpoints all over himself and his weapons to accommodate "Fire Blasts" from the [[Battle Master]]s assortment, which can be used to simulate blaster fire or explosions.

:The core figure's robot mode is inspired by Prime's Generation 1 look, but with [[Kibble|vehicle mode details]] and coloration (including yellow eyes) based on the cab of his ''Cybertron'' counterpart. As with the original ''Cybertron'' figure, the barrel of the truck's left cannon can be detached and wielded by Prime as a rifle called the "JF-15 Gravity Force Laser." The sides of the bumper in truck mode can detach and form arm cannons based on his ''Cybertron'' counterpart's forearms. All five weapons are compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]]. Because of the nature of the mold, additional shoulderpads [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|resembling halves of his truck cab]] were included to complete the Super Mode's resemblance to the template. The vehicle mode's cannons can be underslung and handheld similarly to the ''Cybertron'' figure thanks to the sliding pegs, but lack the original's gimmicks. Unlike Ultra Magnus, Galaxy Upgrade Optimus Prime also features flip-out support struts on the leg armor to compensate the back's weight. While they're hardly needed since the armor's bulk is heavy enough to support the weight, the pieces also prevent the leg armors from standing flat when left folded in.

:Unlike the above Voyager Class figure, this Prime is fully compatible with the [[Magnus Armor]], as is Ultra Magnus with Optimus's Super Mode gear. Also, whether intentional or not, the figure scales almost perfectly with other figures from the original Cybertron line.

:The box art of his vehicle modes is [[Stock photography#Problems with stock photos|mistransformed]], likely as a result of using CGI renders; the two shoulder pieces are shown being left on, which is genuinely impossible and in fact appear to be clipped through each other. They are instead stored inside the leg armor, which forms the back end of the trailer. Strangely, the clear blue plastic used for the cab has light bars molded in, but they are painted over in red. Presumably this is to make the inner robot appear more like G1 Optimus, but results in a less accurate vehicle mode compared to the ''Cybertron'' design. Additionally, there are existing stock photos of the figure without the wingpack and the smaller robot head flipped out.

:Specially branded for the 35th anniversary of the ''Transformers'' brand, ''Siege'' "Classic Animation Optimus Prime" is a redeco of the Voyager Class figure above, featuring a cel-shaded paint pattern that evokes his appearance in the cartoon (though the physical result is more like that of [[Transformers: Devastation|''Devastation'']]). In addition, the grey plastics and paint operations are now replaced with white, and the tire rims' paint is omitted.

:Alongside fellow cel-shaded figure [[Megatron (G1)/Generations toys#S66|Megatron]] and the other "35th Anniversary" figures, Optimus was exclusive to [[Walmart]] in the United States and Canada, and among the first figures that debuted a new, "worldwide" [[multilingual packaging]] design that merged the languages typically found on European packaging with those found on American packaging. In a bit of a snafu, though, all the English texts on his packaging are simply repeated four times, instead of being translated into French, German, Spanish, and Portuguese, or omitted in case two or more translations would be identical to each other (or to the English version).

:''[[Transformers Collaborative|Collaborative]]'' Ghostbusters x Transformers ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' MP-10G Optimus Prime Ecto-35 Edition (whew!) is a [[Ghostbusters]]-themed redeco of the MP-10 Convoy/Optimus Prime mold.

:Optimus Prime is now decoed in white, dark gray and red, with a Ghostbusters "no ghosts" logo on his right shoulder in addition to the Autobot logo on his left. The trailer is decoed similarly, with Ecto-1 style details adorning the sides, as well as green ghost splatter. Optimus's vehicle mode bumper includes an "ECTO-35" plate, which can be seen through his chest in robot mode, referencing the 35th Anniversary of both the ''Transformers'' and ''Ghostbusters'' franchises.

:He includes all his accessories, aside from [[Spike Witwicky (G1)|Spike]] and his axe, gaining a number of additional ones consistent with the theme. The trailer opens out into the "Ecto-Base," or can be stood upright as the "Ecto Maintenance Dock." A snap-on cover can be applied to Roller to turn him into a ghost trap, a painted opaque version of the [[Slimer]] figure included with Ectotron, and a "roof-rack accessory" using the same mold as [[Ectotron]]'s that pegs into the roof of the trailer. This final item converts into a proton pack for robot mode, pegging into the hole in his back, and a hose connects his ion blaster to the proton pack to serve as a particle thrower. In addition, the figure's packaging is shaped like a proton pack, complete with clips to enable the buyer to strap it to their back.

:Ectotron can ''sort of'' fit into Prime's trailer, but this requires the former's equipment rack to be removed from the roof, and clearance within the trailer prevents the trailer's rear tailgate from closing.

:Ecto-35 Edition Optimus Prime debuted as an exclusive at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] in 2019, with additional availability at Fan Expo Canada and the [[Hasbro Pulse]] online store.

*'''Star Convoy''' ([[September 28]], 2019)
**''Hasbro ID number:'' '''TT-GS01'''
**''Accessories'': [[Star Trailer]]/evolution armor, ion-blaster (formed by two blasters), [[Silver Matrix]]

:''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' Star Convoy is a retool of the [[#Power of the Primes|''Power of the Primes'' Leader Class mold]], featuring new lower legs, head, upper shoulders, and waist parts for both the armor and inner robot, and a new torso for the latter. The Optimus Prime inner robot is remolded to resemble his Generation 1 toy, complete with toy-accurate yellow eyes. Most of the armor's grey parts (especially the evolution armor's arms) are now remolded in red plastic to be more accurate to Star Convoy's character model, though there are a few sacrifices leaving some of the red patches on the trailer.

:The Matrix of Leadership is now replaced with the "Silver Matrix" that is a singular piece of plastic dipped in chrome. As such, it does not accommodate Prime Masters/Matrices/Enigmas. The Matrix can be held by 5 mm fist holes and can combine with the guns to form a "Big Bang Cannon". Unlike the original versions of the mold, Star Convoy's stickers, intended to be applied to his trailer, come on a sheet instead of being factory-applied.

:The star-shaped piece that clips into Star Convoy's chest is new to this version of the mold. Because it pegs into a small hole between the tops of the doors to Star Convoy's chest compartment, it introduces an additional step to access the matrix chamber. The red connector which attaches the star to the figure is misassembled, and flipped from its proper orientation. Due to this, the star is prone to not attaching securely to the chest and can easily pop out without much effort. A fix<ref>[https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/generations-selects-star-convoy-super-megatron-snaptrap-figures.1172403/page-113#post-17312785 Guide to rearranging the chest star for improved stability] in the TFW2005 thread for ''Selects'' Star Convoy</ref> utilized by some to address the issue involves popping out the star and connector, then flipping the connector around, before reattaching both parts to the figure. Care should be taken when handling the star and transforming Star Convoy to ensure it does not bump against other parts of the figure or experience undue stress. The stem of the star is particularly fragile and has been known to break without much force being applied to it.

:Reminiscent of the fact that the original [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Return of Convoy|''Return of Convoy'' Star Convoy]] figure could transform into a battle station, a "Z Base Mode" resembling that original battle station mode was created for the character and introduced in the ''Selects'' [[Super Megatron comic 1|Special Comic promoting Super Megatron]]. This figure (and any of the ''Power of the Primes'' Evolution Optimus Prime molds) is capable of being configured into this form. In reference to the fact that the original Star Convoy figure included a [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#Return of Convoy|Micromaster version of Hot Rod]] to man the battle station, one can populate the Z Base Mode with the [[Firebolt (G1)#Titans Return|Firedrive]] or Rodimus Prime Titan Masters from [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Hot Rod's ''Titans Return'' figure]] and the "Chaos on Velocitron" box set respectively. As said Hot Rod Micromaster could also store in the original Star Convoy figure's chest, one can also re-enact this functionality by taking a Matrix frame from a ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' Leader Class figure and placing one of the aforementioned Titan Masters in it, then inserting the frame into Star Convoy's chest.

:This toy was released exclusively through [[TakaraTomy Mall]] and, thanks to brand unification, [[Hasbro Pulse]] and other online retailers in the United States and Canada. It is the first ''Selects'' figure to be developed by TakaraTomy.

{{toydesigner|[[Yūya Ōnishi]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Released in the first wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Earthrise]]'' Leader Class toys, Optimus Prime is an ''extensive'' retooling of the [[#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|''Siege'' Optimus mold]], now transforming into his classic cabover Earth-truck mode. Interestingly, his rear wheels are borrowed from ''[[Studio Series]]'' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#SS32|32]] and [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#SS44|44 Optimus Prime]], and even has has molded drilled-rotor brake discs, a surprising detail for a mainline ''Transformers'' figure. While the vestigial knee flaps were meant to be flipped out while transforming him into truck mode, the flaps' pegs and the elbow's rectangular holes have a slight occupying-the-same-space issue, which can result in the cab noticeably tilting frontward. If the issue persists, the flaps can be left untransformed to properly straighten the cab.

: His very cartoon-like robot mode has an opening chest compartment containing a removable [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Matrix of Leadership]] accessory; in an undocumented feature, the Matrix is able to accommodate "Fire Blast" effect parts and attach to similarly-sized posts. His new Ion Blaster rifle, now in its classic shape, is hinged to fold away the barrel for storage. His hands feature hinge joints in the knuckles, allowing for more expressive posing, with the grip coming from a [[5 mm post|5 mm semi-circle]] formed by the palm and thumb. As the front grill/wheel piece is connected with a c-clip, removing it from his back allows the waist to turn without being hindered.

: For the first time for a (non-''Masterpiece'') ''Generations'' Optimus toy, this release comes with a trailer (sadly too small to store any concurrent car-mode toy larger than the [[Cliffjumper (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|''Earthrise'' Cliffjumper]] mold when closed up) that converts into a combat deck/repair bay complete with an "artillery robot". The trailer's inner walls are loaded with 5 mm post-holes for accessory storage. The main ramp is [[A.I.R. Lock System]] compatible, and its inner section is removable so it can be used as a shield, leaving a U-shaped partial ramp so any cars on the main deck can still roll out. The trailer's artillery robot has two 5 mm post-holes up front for Fire Blast effects or other accessories, and now features ''two'' claw-arms, sadly the gaps in the claws are not 5 mm compatible. The robot can be removed from the trailer at its base and attached to other toys as a giant accessory, most notably as a "jetpack". (Coincidentally, the trailer's hitch post is at exactly the right height to let it rest inside the 5mm hole on [[Roller (G1)#Generations|''Thrilling 30'' Roller]].)

: This figure can be augmented with the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' "[[Centurion droid#Toys|Deluxe Centurion Drone Weaponizer Pack]]", which includes a non-converting long-barreled Ion Blaster, his expected Energon Axe, and [[Roller (G1)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Roller]]. The Energon Axe is specifically molded to fit onto Optimus's ''right'' hand, with the peg peg sliding into the underside of the fist. Although it ''can'' fit on his left hand if slid through the top, this puts noticeable stress on the axe's peg due to the thumb sliding up against the housing. The set also comes with [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Sideswipe]]'s jetpack, and while it is ''mainly'' designed for Sideswipe it can of course be used by Optimus, though due to a section of Optimus' back being marginally wider than the space available, some force may be required to attach the jetpack fully. Whether by coincidence or not, the Energon Strikeshield from the ''Siege'' figure can attach onto his forearms if the hands are tucked away, via the tabs on its hinged handle.

: Like all ''Earthrise'' toys, the inside of the back of Optimus's package includes an exclusive clip-and-save piece of a larger star map. Also in the box is a thin red piece of transparent plastic with which to read the star map. Optimus' piece of the map contains the labeled location of a planet called "[[Micro|MICRON]]".

[[File:TF-WFC-ER-Prime-Comparison.jpg|300px|thumb|[[Cyclonus (G1)/toys#Universe .282008.29|Dodged another shot!]] (''Stock image comparison'')]]
:Confusingly, the figure had ''many'' color differences in different official promotional images. The original 3D renders depicted his colors completely show-accurate to the G1 cartoon (minus the blue codpiece, and with quite rare toy-accurate yellow eyes), the lack of striping on the forearms/side doors, and a fully blue artillery robot for the trailer, while the pre-release prototype seen in New York Comic Con 2019 and the secondary stock photos had his hands and elbows molded in grey, with artillery robot being cast in grey and silver plastic similar to the rest of the trailer. According to [[John Warden]], this was due to the limitations of the mold. Even later, Takara's stock photos showed the figure with blue elbows and a blue and silver artillery robot. The retail release of the figure ultimately, for the most part, went with colors showcased in Hasbro's physical toy stock photos, but with previously yellow eyes now more cartoon-accurate blue, and with his hands, codpiece, and the back piece of his head painted in metallic blue. Early renders also displayed the figure's inner shins as being molded in the same blue color as the rest of the legs, although the final figure presents them cast in gray and unpainted. The sample on the TakaraTomy stock photos also depict his trailer hitch as a single piece.

: Optimus Prime first saw release in Bangkok before its actual release date in March. Optimus also saw release with a retailer incentive gift box, coming with an additional large poster promoting the [[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|''Earthrise'' cartoon]] with various signatures from the showrunners and the characters, including [[Jake Foushee|Jake Tillman]], Prime's voice actor, and a die-cast logo pin.

: The Optimus Prime robot mold was also used to make ''War for Cybertron Trilogy Selects'' [[Optimus Prime (SG)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Shattered Glass Optimus Prime]]. The trailer, including its artillery robot and shield/ramp, was redecoed for the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Nemesis Prime's]] Spoiler Pack and [[#Holiday Optimus Prime|Holiday Optimus Prime]] (see below).

:"Alternate Universe Optimus Prime" is a grayscaled redeco of the figure above with a new head that evokes the battle damage and his death in ''The Transformers: The Movie''. The Matrix of Leadership is the same as the mass retail Leader, though the Ion Blaster is painted completely silver and his rear calves are painted. Another change is the number of lugnuts on the wheels of the trailer. The normal retail version has 10 lug nuts per wheel, whilst this release has none. He is packaged in a ''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Selects]]''-styled box that depicts Ultra Magnus, Hot Rod, and [[Arcee (G1)|Arcee]] grieving during his death scene reflected on a window of his damaged truck mode.
:There are reported issues where the left chest piece is unable to tab in fully due to a deformed pin, leaving a small uneven gap visible in robot mode.

:This is the only ''Earthrise'' toy to lack an ID number and map piece and isn't part of the Galactic Odyssey Collection. Coincidentally, Hasbro ID number WFC-E28 is never used in the toyline within its range of E1 to E41, lending to the possibility that WFC-E28 was intended to be his.

:Alternate Universe Optimus Prime was supposed to release as an exclusive for Amazon Prime Day 2020, though the day was pushed back several months, making the toy release much earlier. The figure first saw release in some Malaysian hobby shops ''before'' it was fully revealed on Hasbro's June 26 [[Hasbro Pulse#Fan First Friday|Fan First Friday]] stream. The figure was later released in Japan as a [[TakaraTomy Mall]] exclusive as part of the 7th wave of TakaraTomy ''Selects'' toys.

:Promoting the ''Earthrise'' chapter of the [[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' cartoon]], this version of Optimus Prime is a trailer-less redeco of the ''Earthrise'' Leader Class mold in darker colors more reminiscent of his [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#The Transformers|G1 figure]]. He comes with Battle Masters Enerax and Sheeldron, translucent yellow redecoes of ''Siege'' [[Pteraxadon#Toys|Pteraxadon]] and ''Earthrise'' [[Soundbarrier#Toys|Soundbarrier]] respectively, without the effects parts. In terms of deco, Optimus's blue plastic/paint operations and the unpaintable gray joints are replaced with the same darker shade of blue (which also coincidentally resembles the erroneous deco used for most of TakaraTomy's stock photos of the mold), additional blue paint has been added to his legs, the molded detail in the center of his pelvis is painted yellow, the interiors of his opening chest windows are unpainted, the translucent plastic is tinted green, and the eyes are a non-metallic light blue.

:The stock renders for both the robot and vehicle modes are inconsistent with the later stock photos: They reuse his deco from the ''Earthrise'' renders, but with blue eyes, green windows, and battle-damage paint apps that are absent on the final toy. The forearms are depicted as stripeless in robot mode, while the rear hip piece and the thighs are differently colored in the truck mode render.

:While Optimus Prime never appears in his ''Earthrise'' body in the cartoon, he was initially planned to for the ''Earthrise'' and ''Kingdom'' chapters, the idea from which this toy is based. A cartoon CGI render of this ''Earthrise'' Optimus Prime can be seen in the ''[[The Art and Making of Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy]]''.<ref>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/809631133117579284/1030455864034865164/20221014_082228.jpg Unused Earthrise Optimus CGI Model] from ''[[The Art and Making of Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' book</ref>

The figure comes with ''Siege'' Optimus's "W-M3 RF Ion Blaster" (but not his "W-50 Dual-Mech Energon Strikeshield") plus a sizeable number of extras that beef up the price.

Fangtron and the shield/Combat Deck ramp are both compatible with the [[A.I.R. Lock System]], as the former can turn into a ramp or a shield for Nemesis Prime. This toy also features a different deco compared to the TakaraTomy Mall exclusive. Namely, he is in fact molded in very dark gray plastic as opposed to the deep black of the Takara version, and the vehicle stripes, bumper guns, and wheel rims are silver instead of teal.

:The Hasbro stock photography for the truck mode is also ''laughably'' mistransformed, with the robot mode crotch being plainly visible, an error that actually requires a considerable amount of effort to replicate with the actual toy. In addition, neither the truck windows nor panels that cover the robot mode hands are compressed fully.

:Much like previous Spoiler Pack, this set is in a windowless box designed to look like an ammo crate and features translatable [[Cybertronian language|Ancient Autobot]]. The text on the package reads "FANGTRON" and "GIZA", while the 'spoiler' text inside features a Decepticon-themed quote: "YOU MUST STAY TRUE / TO WHOM THE MATRIX HAS / CHOSEN, FOR IF YOU / DON’T, A MUCH / DARKER FUTURE AWAITS" and an Autobot-themed one: "THE DEAD UNIVERSE IS / UNLIKE ANYTHING YOU’VE / EXPERIENCED, PRIME", which are both quotes from [[Sky Lynx (G1)|Sky Lynx]] in [[Earthrise episode 5]]. The lateral side of the package also features artwork of Nemesis Prime, edited from art of ''Earthrise'' Optimus Prime. Compared to the previous Spoiler Pack, the packaging itself has no plastic insert.

:This set is a shared exclusive between online retailers and [[Walmart]] in Canada and the USA. In New Zealand, the set was sold exclusively at Toy World and Mighty Ape. Like the previous Spoiler Pack, the TakaraTomy release is packaged in a standard windowed box.

:Part of the first wave of the ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]'' Core Class toys, Optimus Prime is a smaller, roughly Legends-sized mold that according to his product copy and stock images is meant to be posed with larger toys of the same character, but we would be stupid not to note that he is also a good size to interact with Titan Class figures. His transformation shares engineering with the [[#Thrilling 30|''Thrilling 30'' Legends figure]], but with sculpted detailing directly based on the ''Earthrise'' mold, down to details like the ''vestigial knee flaps'' from the ''Siege'' mold. The included Ion Blaster features a 3 mm handle under a 5 mm post, dedicated to the C.O.M.B.A.T. System. He is also fairly articulated for a figure this small, having head rotation and tilting, torso rotation (which actually looks a bit unnatural), ab crunch, butterfly joints at the shoulders, and ball joints in shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees.

:Unlike the actual product, the truck door section of the wrist/hand part is unpainted in the CG stock render. Curiously, his instructions depict an Energon axe that was notably left out of the final release, and was not shown in stock photos.

:In Japan, Optimus Prime was released as a [[TakaraTomy Mall]] exclusive. This mold was later redecoed into ''[[Transformers: Legacy#Evolution .282023.29|Legacy: Evolution]]'' [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#Legacy|Nemesis Prime]], while utilizing the unused Energon Axe.

{{toydesigner|[[Lenny Panzica]] (Hasbro)|[[Emiliano Santalucia]] (concept artist), [[AJ Piejko-Brown]] (packaging)}}

: Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Legacy|Legacy]]'' Leader Class toys, "Laser Optimus Prime" is an updated version of his [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#LaserOptimusPrime|''Generation 2'' design]] which transforms into a mid-1990s Western Star 4964EX, with deco and sculpt details most directly based on the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#G2Reissue|2006 "Battle Convoy" reissue version's modified deco and stickers]] with a flame deco on the front from [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#RTSDeluxe|his 2010 Deluxe Class figure]]. He includes an Energon sword, an Energon axe, a new removable Matrix of Leadership which echoes the sticker details of the 2006 reissue, and a trailer that can transform into a battle station (tanker deco of Optimus burning down a forest not included, sadly) with a small detachable double barreled cannon. The axe and sword can store either inside the trailer or on the cab, with the sword storing underneath the rear section of the cab like the original and the axe slotting in over the trailer hitch. In tanker mode, the trailer's claw arm can be folded down to act as a jack to allow it to stand freely. His signature shoulder pylons can open outwards to reveal missile pods. He has restricted arm movement as the shoulder pylons do not rotate, whilst the real arms start beneath the flap.

: Not mentioned in his instructions, the sword and axe can combine into a larger sword. His Matrix can be attached to the axe or the combined sword, using the rectangular peg near the axes' haft (normally meant to keep the handle folded neatly for storage). The chest slot where the Matrix plugs in is open in the back, seemingly meant to allow for [[light-piping]] in robot mode. His eyes feature neutered light-piping due to the back of his head being painted over, but the eyes themselves are left unpainted.

: Most of Laser Optimus Prime's lower body, including his hips, thighs, the front of his lower legs (except for the shin vents), and feet, reuse elements from the ''Earthrise'' toy above whereas other details like his crotch, shins, back of the lower legs, tires, and the entirety of his upper body are brand-new. Like the ''Earthrise'' toy, the shins have the ''Siege'' figure's trailer hitch on the outside. Laser Optimus' trailer can be attached to ''Earthrise'' Optimus, as well as ''Siege'' Optimus, ''Kingdom'' Huffer, and ''Kingdom'' Pipes. This figure is also similarly compatible with the trailer included with ''Earthrise'' Optimus.

: The [[Hasbro Pulse]] listing for the figure lists him under the name "G2 Universe Laser Optimus Prime", while the packaging itself merely labels him as "Laser Optimus Prime". Despite his origins, Optimus has no G2 faction symbols, only a silver G1 Autobot insignia on his left cab door.

: This figure was redecoed into ''Legacy Velocitron Speedia 500 Collection'' "[[Scourge (RID)#Legacy|Robots In Disguise 2000 Universe Scourge]]" and ''Legacy Toxitron Collection'' "[[Toxitron (Universe)#Legacy|G2 Universe Toxitron]]", while the sword, axe, and Matrix were redecoed into ''Shattered Glass Collection'' [[Ultra Magnus (SG)#Shattered Glass Collection|Ultra Magnus]]'s [[Terminus Blade]].

: Optimus Prime was spotted at a [[Toys"R"Us]] in [[Taiwan]] in mid-[[June]] 2022 before any official announcement from Hasbro.

: He was then rereleased again as part of the seventh Core Class Wave, revealed on [[August 1]], [[2023]] alongside the previously revealed [[Strongarm (RID)#Legacy|Robots in Disguise 2015 Universe Strongarm]], [[Bludgeon (G1)#Legacy|Bludgeon]] and [[Dreadwing (Prime)#Legacy|Prime Universe Dreadwing]].

: A fairly extensive retool of ''[[Studio Series]]'' [[Kup (G1)/toys#Studio Series|Kup]] with a new cartoon-accurate head, chest, and legs, transforming into a Cybertronian pickup truck... and is a clear homage to the [[e-HOBBY]]-exclusive [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Collector's Edition|release from 2005]]. Pax comes with both a red pistol and an [[Energon goodie]] dispenser, both also reused from ''Studio Series'' Kup.

: Orion Pax retains Kup's removable arm and leg feature, which is compatible with any 5mm port or post. Additionally—whether or not it was intentional— Orion Pax's shoulders and hips are inverted straight out of the box, differentiating the overall design from Kup. If one doesn't like them this way, a simple twist of the joints will put them back into the orientation they are on Kup.

: Unfortunately, Orion Pax suffers from the same design issue as the mold's original release. The painted robot mode crotch area that is part of the vehicle mode undercarriage does not fold up far enough to prevent dragging and paint damage, thus care should be taken when the figure is transformed.

: This figure is a part of a [[Hasbro Pulse]]-exclusive 2-pack; also including [[Alpha Trion (G1)#Legacy|Alpha Trion]] with [[Vector Sigma#Legacy|Vector Sigma]] and [[Key to Vector Sigma#Legacy|its Key]]. The set was put up for preorder during [[Hasbro Pulse Con 2022|Pulse Con 2022]], and began appearing in Hong Kong stores shortly afterwards.

: [[Taiwan]]ese fans who supported the [[Hasbro Pulse#HasLab|HasLab]] [[Star Saber (G1)#Legacy|Victory Saber]] project ended up getting the "A Hero Is Born" set instead (along with a full refund) after their Victory Sabers were severely water damaged during shipment and could not be delivered. No, this set is nowhere near as cool. Sorry?

He retains Hound's blaster with clip-on ammo drum and also includes a new two-piece axe based on that of the ''Thrilling 30'' Deluxe figure, complete with a 5mm port in the larger blade. His weapons can be mounted on his vehicle mode roof for storage. His newly-molded chest is based on his appearance in "[[Chaos Theory Part 1|Chaos Theory]]", while his new head, legs, and windshield are based on the [[Guido Guidi]] design<ref>{{cite social|quote="young" Optimus Prime concept sketch (that later would become inspiration for Generations Orion Pax toy)...|link=https://twitter.com/Guido_Guidi/status/536828436627869696|name=Guido Guidi|site=Twitter|year=2014|month=11|day=24}}</ref> from ''[[Spotlight: Blurr]]''.

: Amazon mistakenly mixed up the product IDs for the Rise Of Tyranny and Humble Origins two-packs; as a result, customers who pre-ordered this set were actually sent [[Megatron (G1)/Generations toys#RiseOfTyranny|Miner Megatron]] and [[Ratbat (G1)/toys#Legacy|Senator Ratbat]]. This was corrected a few days after the pre-orders started arriving; customers who purchase this set now will receive what they ordered.

: A Hasbro Pulse exclusive, this Optimus Prime is a cartoon-accurate redeco of the above ''Kingdom'' core class figure. His plastic colors are generally brighter, with the grey unpaintable areas in particular now cast in pearlescent white. He also features some differences in paint applications, including no silver on the legs, no stripe on the vehicle mode cab, yellow highlights on his waist flaps, and a gray background for his eyes, all of which serve to make him more show-accurate. He now comes with his famous [[Combat Deck (G1)|trailer]] in Core Class scale (where it can be hitched with an extension panel that doubles as a shield), which includes a tiny Roller (also able to tow the trailer!) and repair drone. The trailer was noted by its designer [[Evan Brooks]] to be proportionally large and is scaled to be able to fit the pack-in partner [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#Legacy|Bumblebee]], though it's not quite long enough to fit the repair drone, Roller, and Bumblebee all at once. The set also includes both the Ion Blaster and Energon Axe accessories from the previous versions of the mold.

: He was revealed and put up for preorder on the [[June 20]] [[Hasbro Pulse]] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjLY0uamTKM Fanstream].

:A surprise reveal at [[MCM Comic-Con London 2022]], "Holiday Optimus Prime" converts in 37 steps from a licensed {{w|Volvo VN|Volvo VNR 300}}–known throughout the United States as an "[[Amazon (website)|Amazon Prime]] truck"–into a very [[Hero (G2)|Combat Hero]]-styled Optimus Prime with a decidedly [[Santa Claus]]ish color layout, in predominantly red deco with white trim and big black boots. The truck mode is decoed so as to represent snow kicking up over the fenders and falling down onto the roof of his trailer. Said trailer is a redeco of the one included with [[#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|''Earthrise'' Optimus Prime]] in white with red stripes and features a [[tampograph]]ed Autobot [[insignia]] wearing a Santa hat. It also has a new trailer-hitch add-on part with a much further-back hitch-peg, so the trailer connects in the proper place to Optimus's new truck mode; this part is removable so you can use the trailer with the originally-compatible ''Earthrise'' toys. In terms of accessories, Prime comes with a redeco of the ''Earthrise'' toy's ion blaster in festive candy cane striping, as well as a "Matrix of Holiday Cheer" to store behind his translucent green [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|chest windows]].

:Prime's box is designed to look as though it has been pre-packaged in Autobot insignia/snowflake wrapping paper and partially ripped open to reveal the toy inside, even including a printed-on to/from gift tag!

:The official [[stock photography]] leaves two flaps on Prime's chest mistransformed; they should fold in to give him [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|his iconic grille detail]].

:The figure was made available for sale exclusively at [[Hasbro Pulse]] on November 1, 2022, and shipped in early December 2022.

:...Speaking of the "Amazon Prime" trucks, Holiday Optimus Prime appears to have been repurposed from a long-planned but ultimately [[unreleased toy|never released]] ''[[Transformers Collaborative|Collaborative]]'' figure which was listed on the Australian version of the website as early as April 2021<ref name="amazon1">[https://news.tfw2005.com/2021/04/07/new-amazon-australia-transformers-listings-shattered-glass-and-golden-disk-figures-project-bat-and-more-431028 Earliest reported Amazon Australia listing for "Amazon Optimus Prime"] at TFW2005, April 2021.</ref>, with a detailed product description following in June of that same year<ref name="amazon2">[https://news.tfw2005.com/2021/06/28/transformers-collaborative-transformers-amazon-prime-mash-up-official-description-436399 Product description for "Amazon Optimus Prime"] at TFW2005, June 2021.</ref>, as well as listings on other international versions of the Amazon website such as Amazon Germany<ref name="amazon3">[https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/product-description-for-amazon-x-transformers-optimus-prime.1216185/page-11#post-19284981 Earliest documented Amazon Germany listing for "Amazon Optimus Prime"] at TFW2005, June 2021.</ref>.

Like Holiday Optimus Prime, the Amazon mashup was also specified to turn into a licensed Volvo truck in 37 steps. All signs point to the Volvo Optimus Prime mold being repurposed as an affiliate of a less corporate–and more public domain–gift distributor... not to mention as a release less likely to annoy other [[Walmart|major]] [[Target|retailers]] of Hasbro toys.

:''Combat Deck is a component of [[Autobot]] leader [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] from the [[Generation 1 continuity family]].''
[[File:CombatDeckVisualWorks.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|The Combat Deck as it flies through space and attacks Devastator's hand. Hubba-jubba-wha?!]]
When transforming out of [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]], Optimus Prime splits into three components:

*His primary [[robot mode]], occasionally called the [[Brain Center]].<ref>Don't look at me, this is what the 1986 Marvel UK annual called it!</ref>
*A wheeled drone module known as [[Roller (G1)|Roller]].
*A '''Combat Deck'''.

Although Optimus Prime can function as three independent modules, injury to any one module is felt by the other two.

Prime can operate by remote-control his Combat Deck module up to a distance of 1500 feet. The '''Auto-Launcher''' mounted on the deck can use a variety of artillery and radiation beam weapons, including most of those used by his fellow Autobots. The launcher also includes a highly dexterous grapple-arm which allows it to load itself and change its weaponry. The communications disk antenna mounted on the launcher provides a link between Optimus and all his fellow Autobots within a radius of 50 miles. It can be adapted to a satellite hook-up that increases its effective range tenfold. (Occasionally, though, the antenna can be replaced by a second claw, as indicated in the photo to the right.)

Unlike Roller, the Combat Deck does not possess autonomous intelligence, but it has shown several times the strange ability to come and go out of nowhere. Spooky...

===Marvel Comics continuity===
====Marvel ''The Transformers'' comics====
{{noteukonly}}
[[File:Combat deck marvel 1.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Marvel decided to go with the [[Lucky Draw figure|lucky draw]] version.]]
When the [[Ark (G1)|Ark]]'s [[Aunty|computer]] was awakened by the eruption of [[Mount St. Hilary]] in [[1984]], it dispatched "revival drones" to reanimate the Autobots and [[Decepticon]]s on board. Two of these drones bore a striking resemblance to the Combat Deck, and they were the ones that reactivated most, if not all of the Ark's passengers. {{storylink|The Transformers (issue)|The Transformers}}

Later, a drone assisted [[Ratchet (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Ratchet]] in repairing the Ark. {{storylink|Prisoner of War!}}

{{note|While the revival drones were modelled after the Combat Deck's toy (right down to the wheels and platform) they were never suggested in-story to be the transformed [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Optimus Prime]]'s trailer - in "[[Prisoner of War!]]" we see a drone with Ratchet while Prime drives up in truck mode. However, since there was more than one drone, it's possible Prime appropriated one to use as his trailer.}}

''As part of a plan to fake his own death, Optimus Prime stored a [[facsimile construct]] of himself in his trailer and went off alone. He was ambushed by [[Megatron (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Megatron]] and the [[Predacon (G1)|Predacon]]s and thrown clear of his trailer. Showing uncommon sportsmanship, Megatron gave Optimus a ten minute head start before he sent the Predacons to hunt for him. Thinking he lost them, Optimus Prime doubled back to his trailer and started to remove the facsimile. Megatron was waiting for him and fired his [[fusion cannon]]. He missed [[Brain Center|Prime's robot component]] but hit his trailer component, causing Prime pain. The Predacons returned and betrayed Megatron, stealing his fusion cannon and leaving him alone to fight Prime. Prime got the upper hand and Megatron opened up a space bridge to flee. Both Prime and Megatron went through, with Prime leaving behind his trailer.'' {{storylink|Prey!}} {{storylink|...The Harder They Die!}}

''On [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], Prime transformed without his trailer, confirming that he left it on Earth.'' {{storylink|Under Fire!}} ''In the meantime, the Autobots had discovered the deactivated facsimile construct and buried it, thinking it was really Optimus Prime. No mention was made of the trailer and whether or not they buried that component as well.'' {{storylink|Resurrection!}}

Optimus Prime (and his trailer) drove to [[Energy Futures Industries]]. Prime transformed and left his trailer off-panel. After losing a video game, Optimus Prime's [[Brain Center|robot component]] was destroyed and carried away. It was not clear where the Combat Deck was at the time or what happened to it. {{storylink|Afterdeath!}}

====Generation 2====
Optimus Prime was back in his original body, except his trailer was black and had more weapons. {{storylink|Transformers: Generation 2 (Marvel)|Transformers: Generation 2}}

===''The Transformers'' cartoon===
[[File:G1 cartoon Optimus Prime Combat Deck.jpg|upright=0.85|thumb|right|Combat Deck, the alternate mode of Optimus Prime's trailer, exists within Optimus Prime's trailer. ...Wait, what?]]

The Combat Deck was used by [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] during a battle with [[Megatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Megatron]]; the two fired at each other at the same time. While the Combat Deck's blasts knocked Megatron's [[fusion cannon]] off his arm, Megatron's blast blew the Combat Deck cannon to pieces. {{storylink|More than Meets the Eye, Part 3}}

Optimus Prime later used the Combat Deck to help the Autobots with a battle in the Arctic. The Combat Deck managed to damage [[Skywarp (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Skywarp]]'s stabilizers, causing him to crash into [[Thundercracker (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Thundercracker]] in midair and taking out both [[Seeker (body-type)|Seekers]]. {{storylink|Fire in the Sky}}

When Optimus Prime was briefly turned evil, he activated the Combat Deck and Roller to attack his fellow Autobots when they tried to help him. It didn't hit anything, and stopped firing at them as soon as it was hit with an [[attitude exchanger]]. {{storylink|Attack of the Autobots (episode)|Attack of the Autobots}}

* '''Optimus Prime''' ([[1984]])
**''Takara ID number:'' '''01'''
**''Accessories:'' 4 missiles, fuel pump, hose, nozzle
{{toydesigner|[[Shōji Kawamori]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:The trailer portion of Optimus Prime's vehicle mode opens up into his Combat Deck, splitting down the middle and unfolding into a symmetrical battlefield headquarters for Prime and the Autobots, wide enough to accommodate one vehicle-mode Autobot car in each of its three bays. The central feature of the Combat Deck is the "Auto-Launcher" artillery/repair drone mounted upon a boom lift arm, which features a rotating radar dish, an articulated claw arm, and two missiles. Situated at the base of this boom arm is a spring-loaded launcher that can be used to deploy either [[Roller (G1)|Roller]] or any Autobot car out of the Combat Deck via the ramp formed from the trailer's tailgate. The Combat Deck includes three small peg holes moulded into its walls and floor, scaled to accommodate Optimus Prime's laser rifle (storing it while the figure is in vehicle mode) and the handle of the fuel pump accessory.

:In trailer mode, the Combat Deck can accommodate one Autobot car (if you remove Roller), and the launcher still functions. The Auto-Launcher can still be used in this mode, as it fits through either of the two square holes in the trailer's roof and front. The ''Transformers'' release of the figure does not mention the Combat Deck's rudimentary "third" mode, a "repair bay" of sorts, which involves standing the open trailer upright while Prime stands in the middle, so the Auto-Launcher can "tend" to him. The Prime figure can also fit within the closed trailer.

:As a former ''[[Diaclone]]'' toy, the Combat Deck features several vestigial features associated with that toyline, including two small, dark blue consoles on its floor, and an opening cockpit on the Auto-Launcher, which can each seat one Diaclone pilot figure. Instead of stickers, the floor of the Combat Deck originally featured large metal plates, to which the Diaclone pilots' magnetic feet could attach. These plates were included on some of the earliest releases of the ''Transformers'' version of the toy, but were soon done away with.

:The Auto-Launcher is also the subject of several significant variations. Its missiles were customarily black, but slightly smaller grey versions were available. The original ''Transformers'' release of the figure did not feature spring-loaded launchers for these missiles, but subsequent Japanese editions of the toy included the feature. When [[Hasbro]] reissued the figure in its ''[[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Generation One Commemorative Series]]'', the launchers were enabled, necessitating that the missiles be lengthened [[for safety reasons]].

:When the Optimus Prime mold is recolored or reissued (see [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Notes|this list]] for all those times), the Combat Deck is almost always included with it. Significant changes in the appearance of the Combat Deck included its being decorated with Pepsi stickers for a limited promotional edition, and being recolored black for ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' in [[1993]] and JAFCON in [[2000]].

:The first ''Generation 2'' Optimus Prime toy was largely identical in sculpt to the original Generation 1 figure release. While his cab robot retained his original red and blue color scheme, his trailer was recast in black, with the original blue and silver striped sticker replaced with a red and silver one displaying Optimus's name. The traditionally dark blue internal components of the trailer are a lighter blue. He comes with an electronic "sound and lights module" that can plug into the front of the trailer.

:[[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#MP10|MP-10 Convoy]] is an entirely new, smaller tooling of Generation 1 Optimus Prime, and comes with a new version of his trailer/Combat Deck. It now features a pull-out ramp and opening doors, can mount and be towed by either Optimus Prime or Roller, and the trailer has two flip-down supports underneath, allowing it to stand alone. The interior has enough room to accommodate one ''[[Transformers: Alternity|Alternity]]'' toy in vehicle mode.

:As usual, the trailer can open up into the Combat Deck, with the lower portions of the trailer splitting open and to the side to function as supports, and with the ramp being deployed. In this mode, he features the standard Auto-Launcher with a flip-up rotating radar dish and articulated repair arm, as well as a floor-mounted console on each side, all of which can be manned by the included [[Spike Witwicky (G1)#Masterpiece|Spike Witwicky]] figurine. The trailer can also be configured to stand upright for Prime to use in robot mode, with his [[Ion blaster#MP10|Ion blaster]] and [[Energon-axe#MP10|energon-axe]] being stored near the consoles.

:Finally, the Combat Deck also features small panels on its sides that can be folded in, forming a small gap that's just the right size for the Auto-Launcher's neck, allowing the Auto-Launcher to be mounted on top and used in trailer mode. Awesome.

Accompanying the Command Deck is a teeny inhalable [[Roller (G1)#Legacy|Roller]] also able to tow the entire trailer(!) as well as carry around the Auto-Launcher on its own [[#MP44|MP44]] style. The trailer was noted by designer [[Evan Brooks]] to be proportionally rightfully huge in contrast to the infamously undersized ''Earthrise'' version, and is scaled to fit the included Bumblebee, though it isn't quite long enough to fit Bumblebee, Roller, and the repair drone all at once. The set also includes Prime's signature [[ion blaster]] and [[Energon-axe]] as well as a Generation 1-style "stinger blaster" for Bumblebee, all of which have places to stow inside the trailer.

==Notes==

*In the cartoon, when Optimus Prime [[Transformation|transforms]] into [[robot mode]], the combat deck disappears, only to reattach itself to Prime whenever he goes into vehicle mode. According to an early Japanese catalog circa [[1985]], after Optimus Prime transforms into robot mode, the trailer is teleported to the base via a special signal.<ref>Page 69, ''[[Transformers Generations 2011 Volume 1]]''</ref> IDW's ''[[The Transformers: Escalation]]'' uses a similar idea, by having the trailer arrive at Prime's location using [[orbital jump]].
*Marvel's G1 comics generally kept better track of Prime's trailer. If he didn't bring it with him, he would transform without it. It seemed to pop in and out in the G2 comic, though.
*The Combat Deck was referred to as '''Autobot Headquarters''' in [[Commercial/International#United Kingdom|several]] [[Transformers: Generation 2 (Fleetway)|different]] [http://www.botchthecrab.com/galleryImage.asp?gallery=10&image=268 sources].

**''Accessories'': Ion Blaster
{{toydesigner|[[Joe Kyde]] (Hasbro)}}

:Part of the third wave of 2012-onwards ''Generations'' Legends Class toys, ''[[Thrilling 30]]'' Optimus Prime is a new mold that is roughly the same size as a ''[[Cyberverse (toyline)|Cyberverse]]'' Commander Class toy. Both his truck and [[robot mode]] are based on his [[Don Figueroa]]-designed body from [[IDW Publishing|IDW]]'s [[The Transformers (IDW)|2009-2011 comic series]], and features [[5 mm post|5 mm-compatible]] hands and roof. He comes with an [[Ion blaster#Legends|Ion Blaster]] which has both 5mm and 3mm posts.

: He comes with "[[Roller (G1)#Generations|Autobot Roller]]", who can transform into a six-wheel armored SUV, a robot with [[C joint|3 mm-compatible]] hands, and a weapon with a 5 mm handle. He has a 5 mm hole in vehicle mode and a 3 mm hole in weapon mode for mounting the Ion Blaster.

: Not depicted in the instructions or stock photos, Roller can attach to Prime in vehicle mode via two tabs on the vehicle front which slot into two corresponding slots on Prime's feet. Another undocumented feature is that the butt of the Ion Blaster can be inserted between the barrels of Roller's weapon mode to form a longer weapon. Also not shown in the instructions but depicted on the stock photo on the card-back is that Prime's shoulderpads can be rotated up; the intended positioning for this is notched, although you can position them at other angles.

: The stock photo of Optimus' vehicle mode is slightly mistransformed: his head slightly sticks out from the truck roof, which prevents the front windows to clamp together. This mold was also used to make ''Thrilling 30'' [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#Generations|Nemesis Prime]], and retooled into ''Combiner Wars'' [[Huffer (G1)#Generations|Huffer]] and [[Pipes (G1)#Generations|Autobot Pipes]].

{{toydesigner|[[Joe Kyde]] (Hasbro)}}

:Part of the fifth wave of 2012-onwards ''Generations'' Deluxe Class toys, ''Thrilling 30'' Orion Pax is a new mold with a robot mode inspired by [[Guido Guidi]]'s [[:File:SpotlightBlurr-Optimus.jpg|design for the character, originally seen]] in ''[[Spotlight: Blurr]]''. Some liberties have been taken with the original concept to facilitate his truck mode, which is a new design not based on the Guidi art. He comes with his [[Ion blaster#Deluxe|Ion Blaster]] and an [[Energon-axe#Deluxe|Energon Axe]] with a transparent red-orange blade, both of which can peg onto 5 mm ports on his hands and vehicle rear sides. Although not depicted on the instructions, the Ion Blaster can also peg into the hole in the larger blade of the Energon Axe. Even though the light-piping eyes are neutered by light blue paint, the side grooves are still able to light up as the paint only focuses on the central optic.

He comes with 12 [[Slug figure|small, non-transforming figurines]] of Orion Pax, [[Megatron (G1)/Generations toys#SDCC2013|Megatron]], [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#SDCC2013|Bumblebee]], [[Thundercracker (G1)/toys#Thrilling 30|Thundercracker]], [[Trailbreaker (G1)/toys#SDCC2013|Trailcutter]], and [[Hoist (G1)/toys#Thrilling 30|Hoist]], all in both modes. The figurines are based on their ''Thrilling 30'' Deluxe Class toys, and similarly to [[Decoy]]s, the Autobot figurines are cast in red plastic, and the Decepticons in purple.

:The handle of Pax's Energon Axe is incredibly thin and unable to support the axe head, meaning the latter tends to droop down in the process.

**''Accessories:'' Two blasters (combine into large rifle)
{{toydesigner|[[John Warden]] (Hasbro)}}

: Part of the first wave of ''Generations: [[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Voyager Class toys, this is a bigger, bulkier incarnation of Optimus Prime with a striking resemblance to Ginrai. He comes with two blasters which he holds via 5 mm post. One of the guns is based on his trademark Ion Blaster, and both weapons store on the back of his vehicle mode as a makeshift engine block. His torso mode has several details that appear to be influenced by [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Energon|''Energon'' Optimus Prime]]'s super mode, including the head, chest, and thighs. In particular, the chest details are modeled after the [[Spark of Combination]]. He also features two pair of fake windows on his robot and gestalt chest halves. The combiner head can be used as a robot mode head if you're feeling silly.

:Optimus suffers from a design flaw that many other Voyager Class figures in the ''Combiner Wars'' line experience: the detents, or "click points", on the heavily-ratcheted outward motion of his hips (which also form the hips of his torso mode) are few in number and very far apart. As a result, Prime's legs have great difficulty assuming the natural "A-stance" formation that the angled design of his foot sculpt seems to have been meant to accommodate. Likewise, when forming the torso of Ultra Prime, the interactions of the knee-lock mechanism and the hip detents almost always force Ultra Prime's legs into either an awkwardly knock-kneed arrangement or an equally awkward, and often unstable, bow-legged posture (as seen in the image to the right) that prevents Ultra Prime from standing flat-footed. Unlike Motormaster, this version of Optimus was the only one to not receive the improved hip ratchets implemented in its future releases in some shape or form by Hasbro, though they would be used for the Battle Core redeco later in the line. If one wishes, the improved hip ratchets from a relevant release can be used to replace Prime's first edition ratchets to effectively fix him.

:Being a ''Combiner Wars'' Voyager, Prime is naturally capable of transforming into a torso mode to combine with any 4 Deluxe Class ''Combiner Wars''-style toys, though his packaging call-out has him form Ultra Prime by combining him with Deluxe Class [[Skydive (G1 Aerialbot)#Generations|Skydive]] and [[Alpha Bravo]] as the arms, and with [[Fireflight (G1)#Generations|Firefly]] and [[Drag Strip (G1)#Generations|Decepticon Drag Strip]] as the legs. He can combine with [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Generations|Sunstreaker]], [[Mirage (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Mirage]], [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Generations|Prowl]], and [[Ironhide (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Ironhide]] if one wishes to have an IDW-accurate Optimus Maximus.

:Unfortunately, Optimus Prime is also the weakest link of the gestalt combination, due to a number of design failures attributed to his torso mode. The square holes-and-tabs used to secure the arms together when in torso mode are too weak to remain locked in place (though a very small amount of copies can secure the arm well), and are prone to falling out of position should an attached arm be moved. The torso mode's skirt plate is also attached to the stomach rather than the pelvis, rendering the waist swivel nearly worthless due to the skirt obstructing articulation.

:Though Optimus's wave was scheduled for a first quarter 2015 release, it arrived on U.S. store shelves in late 2014.

:Optimus comes packaged with a collector's card featuring art from the initial release of the ''[[Transformers Legends (mobile game)|Transformers Legends]]'' mobile game. The mold would be retooled several times, resulting in [[Motormaster (G1)#Combiner Wars|Motormaster]], [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generations toys#CWBC|Battle Core Optimus Prime]], and [[Toxitron (G1)#Generations|Wrecker Toxitron]]. The toy also served as a model for ''[[Transformers: Forged to Fight|Forged to Fight]]'' [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#Transformers: Forged to Fight|Nemesis Prime]].

**''Accessories:'' Two blasters (combine into large rifle)

:"Battle Core Optimus Prime" is a white redeco and slight retool of the previous ''Combiner Wars'' Optimus figure. According to the Hasbro panel at [[BotCon 2015]], his new head is based on Star Convoy (see above). For some reason, his deco appears to be influenced by [[Nova Prime]].

:The figure features newly redesigned hip ratchets to make both robot and combiner mode stable, which were also installed in both TakaraTomy's [[Motormaster (G1)#Unite Warriors 2|Motormaster]], [[Grand Scourge#Toys|Grand Scourge]], and a revision wave of Hasbro's Motormaster. The pegs that Legends Class Rodimus (or Blackjack) attach to have also been slightly modified to provide a tighter fit, making the latter toy much less prone to falling out.

:Battle Core Optimus Prime can combine with any Deluxe Class toys with the ''Combiner Wars''-styled joint—but, of course, he is intended to be combined with [[Sunstreaker (G1)/toys#Generations|Sunstreaker]], [[Mirage (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Mirage]], [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Generations|Prowl]], and [[Ironhide (G1)/toys#Combiner Wars|Ironhide]] to form [[Optimus Maximus (G1)#Generations|Optimus Maximus]]. He can also combine with ''Unite Warriors'' [[Streetwise (G1)#Unite Warriors 2|Streetwise]], [[Groove (G1)#Unite Warriors 2|Groove]], [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Unite Warriors|Prowl]], and ''Combiner Wars'' [[Rook (CW)#Generations|Rook]] to form White Convoy Grand Prime, as seen in the [[God Neptune comic 2|''Generations Selects'' Special Comic promoting God Neptune]].

:Battle Core Optimus Prime comes packaged with a collector's card based on his packaging art. the prototype printed on the back of the box & the stock photos, and the CG model in the instructions had him possessing a single tampographed/stickered symbol on his left arm.

:He and the last three waves of ''Combiner Wars'' Deluxe and Voyager figures later showed up in the U.S. at TJ Maxx at reduced prices.

:As a part of the third and fourth wave promotion in Hasbro's Asian markets, a free sticker sheet for the [[Protectobot (G1)|Protectobot]]s and [[Optimus Maximus (G1)|Optimus Maximus]] was given out when purchasing any four Deluxe Class toys from those waves.

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)#PrimeWarsTrilogyAsian|Generations: Cyber Series]]'' Cyber Battalion figures, Optimus Prime is a roughly Voyager-sized figure and transforms from a truck (which is based on the ''Generations Thrilling 30'' Legends Class Optimus Prime figure) into a robot in just 7 simple steps. The figure's transformation engineering had taken cues from the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#2010Legend|''Reveal the Shield'' Legends Class Optimus Prime]] figure, while it still retains the same ol' articulation.

:As with other earlier Cyber Series figures, Optimus Prime had a rather strange release cycle. At first, he only retailed exclusively in Asia and Latin America, with the closest to a U.S. release being in limited quantities from online retailer BigBadToyStore.com. He did, however, end up being available in the Universal Studios Theme Park, and also later as a Walgreens exclusive.

Surprisingly, he does have a reasonable amount of articulation, including a balljointed head and hinged joints for his arms, shoulders and legs, plus lateral hinges for his feet.

Rather than the [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]] colors like the ''Age of Extinction'' 2-pack figure, the toy's deco is very similar to the ''Classics'' release, with some changes and omissions: his blue plastic is a dark metallic sheen, his knee's yellow detailing was removed, his small Autobot symbol tampograph was placed on his right shoulder, and his larger one is placed on his energy unit. His side door/arm kibble is left unpainted. According to [[Mark Weber]], this was meant to represent his abdominal area being torn in the movie's battle. (Yeah, we have no idea how it works, since the "battle damage" parts end up on his ''arms'' in robot mode.)

:Both his robot and vehicle mode [[stock photography|stock photos]] depict him slightly mistransformed.

:''Platinum Edition'' Optimus Prime was only available as part of a 2-pack with [[Megatron (G1)/Generations toys#Platinum Edition|Megatron]], named "One Shall Stand, One Shall Fall" after Optimus Prime's famous line in the movie. In the United States and Canada, this set was officially released as an [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] exclusive. It was also available in several of Hasbro's Asian markets (namely the Philippines and Singapore; it's currently unknown whether it was exclusive to any particular stores there or not). In Australia, it was sold at Myer stores, whereas in the United Kingdom, it was both sold at [[Toys"R"Us]] stores and available via Tesco's website (but never found in stores).

{{toydesigner|[[John Warden]] (Hasbro), [[Takashi Kunihiro]] (TakaraTomy)|[[Emiliano Santalucia]] (concept artist), [[Marcelo Matere]] (packaging artist)}}

:A heavy retool of ''Combiner Wars'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Generations|Ultra Magnus]], this Optimus Prime is based on the Powermaster Optimus Prime toy from 1988. Despite this, Hi-Q (now renamed 'Autobot Apex', presumably for trademark reasons) doesn't form the engine on Prime's chest; instead, he transforms into a de-faceplated version of the original Powermaster Optimus Prime cab robot head, over which a helmet slides during transformation to complete the Powermaster Prime look. In all three of Optimus Prime's modes are various pegs and seats with which Titan Master figures can interact. Like other Leader Class figures, his base mode can connect to other ''Titan Returns'' figures with base modes.

:Most notably in terms of new tooling, the panels on the undersides of Powermaster Optimus Prime's forearms feature slots under the fists, which allow the guns to tab in and be held much more stably than with Ultra Magnus. And due to the amount of empty space in the cab area in vehicle mode, Powermaster Prime can fully transform without the need to remove his head.

:Powermaster Optimus Prime also comes with a collector's card based on his packaging art.

:In an undocumented feature, because he comes with the same rifles as ''Combiner Wars Ultra Magnus'', his weapons can be combined into a huge, multi-barreled rifle. His instructions show that one of the two Titan Master seat guns can peg onto the top of his chest plate in base mode, but are unclear on exactly ''how''. The tab on the chest plate plugs into the hole where the Titan Master's feet peg in. However, in doing so the Titan Master will no longer fit. Due to the extra panels that were added to the legs, Optimus has trouble standing flat on both feet. Fortunately, this doesn't have any serious effect on the toy's stability due to the size of the feet. His gray plastic comes tinged somewhat, perhaps as a result of a [[Photodegradation|yellowed]] specimen of the original Powermaster figure (such as the one on [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#PMOP|this very page]]) being used as a reference. He comes with two different Autobot symbols: The ones on the shoulders are a Movie variant, while the trailer features a ''Generation 1''-styled insignia.

:[[Fortress Maximus (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Fortress Maximus]]'s instructions depict him as part of the [[Cybertron City (TR)|Cybertron City]] combination. Meanwhile, the "Siege on Cybertron" instructions show him as a part of the [[Nemesis Command]] combination, albeit mislabeled as [[Blaster (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Autobot Blaster]].

:This mold was further retooled as ''[[Transformers Legends (franchise)|Legends]]'' [[Ginrai (human)#Legends|Super Ginrai]], which was redecoed into Siege On Cybertron [[Ginrai (robot)#Titans Return|Magnus Prime]].

{{toydesigner|[[John Warden]] (Hasbro)}}

:This Optimus Prime is a Voyager-sized Triple Changer mold, which transforms from robot to [[Octane (G1)|Octane]]-ish tanker truck to plane. His robot mode is heavily based on ''Generation 2'' [[#LaserOptimusPrime|Laser Optimus Prime]], whilst the deco appears to draw from Star Convoy. His Titan Master partner [[Diac#Toys|Diac]] transforms into his head (but any Titan Master figure is compatible). Like all ''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' Voyager class figures, he has built-in mechanisms to "bulk up" his noggin. In his case, these are spring-loaded pylons. His robot mode also features fake truck windows.

:This iteration of the mold and its redecoes exhibit a minor design flaw: there are two tabs on the plane mode's wings that prevent the truck mode's trailer from fully closing at the rear. Ostensibly, this can be rectified by setting the wings slightly askew so they can properly flatten against each other. However, this leads to some holes on each wing not being lined up with some corresponding pegs on the trailer.

:The stock photo is slightly mistransformed: the wings in jet mode should sit further forward to better resemble a real commercial jet. The packaging art and instructions show the correct orientation. This error is present in photography for all reuses of this variant of this mold.

:This mold was redecoed into ''Legends'' [[Scourge (RID)#Voyager|Black Convoy]] and ''Street Fighter X Transformers'' [[Ryu#Toys|Ryu]], and retooled into [[Octane#Titans Return|Octone]]. Beginning with this wave, Hasbro changed the standard packaging design for ''Titans Return'' Voyagers from "Autobot" style to "Decepticon" style regardless of character faction.

Despite this, it later became available via [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] in the United States (but not in Canada) as well, actually sold by Amazon directly (as compared to a third-party seller).

:Released as part of a collaboration between Transformers and [https://primitiveskate.com/ Primitive Skateboarding], this figure is a black repaint of the ''Titans Return'' Powermaster Optimus Prime, with the deco somewhat resembling [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#NucleonQuest|Nucleon Quest Super Convoy]], but with some gold trims and Primitive Skateboarding markings partially designed by Primitive Skateboard founder [https://hypebeast.com/tags/paul-rodriguez Paul Rodriguez]. He also comes with a new hoverboard accessory (resembling the one [[Daniel Witwicky (G1)|Daniel Witwicky]] used in ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''), which Shreddicus Maximus (or any other Titan/Prime Master) can attach to. This board is designed to attach to the included three-piece skating ramp & rail assembly, which can be folded up and rebuilt into a railgun (get it?) that other figures can wield.

: Optimus & Shreddicus were initially [[exclusive]] to [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2017, where they sold out. A small portion of the run had been held for future sales: [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] put the set up for sale for about five minutes on [[August 14]] before selling out. The remainder was available at [[HasCon 2017]]'s exclusives booth, but again they burned through the stock very quickly.

:Another Hasbro release of the [[#MP10|MP-10 mold]], which is ''basically a reissue'' of the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#mp10hasbro|2010 ''Transformers'' line's ''Masterpiece'' Optimus Prime]], but with the Japanese release's ID number.

Unlike the original Hasbro version, this version features silver paint on the interior of the trailer.

:''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' "Evolution Optimus Prime" transforms from a truck with a trailer into a robot and back. The truck cab transforms into his "Orion Pax" form based on his appearance in the Generation 1 episode "[[War Dawn (episode)|War Dawn]]", and he is able to form the core of Optimus Prime's robot mode. His trailer forms Prime's entire body, sharing a noticeable amount of details with MP-10 mold, most notably an almost identical head sculpt. He is the first non-''Masterpiece'' ''Generations'' G1 Optimus Prime figure to include removable [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#Power of the Primes|Matrix of Leadership]] accessory, which is stored in his chest in the 'Evolved' form. The center of his Matrix of Leadership can be replaced with any [[Prime Master#Toys|Prime Master]]. His [[ion blaster]] can be split into two weapons for Orion Pax to use, while also store on Optimus Prime's back via visible [[5 mm post]]s of Orion Pax's hands, though this is undocumented in the instructions. The Takara version of the mold lacks the production numbers located at his right shins. Depending on the individual copy, Optimus Prime is prone to having a number of quality control issues: ranging from two left/right arms and/or legs/feet on the evolution armor, to lacking stickers on the trailer pieces. On the other hand, the trailer can also be towed by any other figure with a compatible hitch.

:Though designated for a first quarter 2018 release, Optimus's wave reached U.S. store shelves in December 2017.

:Part of the first wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' Voyager Class figures, Optimus Prime transforms from robot to [[For safety reasons|short-smokestacked]] Cybertronian armored truck and back. For an inexpensive mass-retail release, Optimus's robot mode is very accurate to his design from the original cartoon (albeit with added details) and also features excellent poseability on par with a ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' toy, resulting in a version of the character that gives collectors lots of bang for their buck. He includes two weapons compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]]—the "W-50 Dual-Mech Energon Strikeshield," which is an axe that transforms into a shield, and the "W-M3 RF [[Ion blaster|Ion Blaster]]." Both weapons can combine to form the "Sentrystrike Ultra-Blaster." An argument could be made that being able to flip around Optimus's underarm kibble to form underslung gatling guns is an undocumented gimmick. Optimus Prime also features "battle damage" paint applications on several parts of his body, as well as multiple hardpoints all over himself and his weapons to accommodate "Fire Blasts" from the [[Battle Master]]s assortment, which can be used to simulate blaster fire or explosions.

:In vehicle mode, opening the figure's windows shows the [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Matrix of Leadership]] molded into the plastic behind the windows. Due to the transformation, the Matrix doesn't end up in the chest in robot mode. Despite being a Voyager-scale figure, the truck mode is considerably small, in scale with a Legends-sized figure. Whether through coincidence or design, it's possible to fit a ''Power of the Primes'' Matrix core (and by extension, a [[Prime Master]] or [[Titan Master]]) in his chest.

:An additional, undocumented but confirmed third "hover truck" mode exists, which is achieved by folding all of his wheels under his vehicle mode. While the back wheels don't lock in anywhere, the two front wheels actually have small tabs that plug into slots on the back of the wheel sections that aren't used for either of his other modes.<ref>[http://www.toyboxsoapbox.com/2018/11/13/transformers-siege-voyager-optimus-prime-review/ "At some convention somewhere one Hasbro rep let slip that Siege Optimus Prime also had a hidden hover truck mode."] on Toybox Soapbox</ref>

:There is a message written in [[Cybertronian language|Cybertronian letters]] on Optimus Prime's box art, which reads "LIGHT THE DARKEST HOUR."

:While Optimus greatly resembles the inner robot of ''Siege'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Ultra Magnus]], he is actually a completely different mold and therefore not compatible with the [[Magnus Armor]]. This mold was later used to make [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#War for Cybertron: Siege|Nemesis Prime]]. A large number of parts of this figure were reused for the ''Earthrise'' Optimus Prime figure released in 2020. Due to this, the trailer packaged with the ''Earthrise'' figure is fully compatible with the ''Siege'' figure's truck mode.

:Depending on the figure's individual quality control, the truck's roof may not sit securely flush in vehicle mode, notably on the rear right side.

:While Hasbro and TakaraTomy's releases of the toy are almost identical, the battle damage paint apps on the latter's shoulders and legs are slightly altered in size.<ref>[https://twitter.com/Alfes2010/status/1099375629361795072 Alfes2010's comparison of both Siege Optimus Prime toys]</ref>

:Part of the second wave ''Siege'' Leader Class figures, "Galaxy Upgrade Optimus Prime" is an extensive retool of the same line's [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Ultra Magnus]], taking heavy design cues from [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|''Cybertron'' Optimus Prime]] (the Japanese series name being "''Galaxy Force''," which is referenced in the name). He transforms into a heavily armed fire truck like the ''Cybertron'' figure, but with a Cybertronian aesthetic. The two "W-30 Magnetic Inducer Launchers" are unpainted blasters from ''Siege'' Ultra Magnus, and as such, mirror the detailing placed just behind ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Ultra Magnus (RID)|Ultra Magnus]]'s cab. Their hexagonal tips resembling ''Cybertron'' Optimus Prime's Super Mode leg cannons were likely a foresight for this retooling, but are molded in black rather than grey likely due to [[gang-molding]]. Optimus Prime also features "battle damage" paint applications on several parts of his body, as well as multiple hardpoints all over himself and his weapons to accommodate "Fire Blasts" from the [[Battle Master]]s assortment, which can be used to simulate blaster fire or explosions.

:The core figure's robot mode is inspired by Prime's Generation 1 look, but with [[Kibble|vehicle mode details]] and coloration (including yellow eyes) based on the cab of his ''Cybertron'' counterpart. As with the original ''Cybertron'' figure, the barrel of the truck's left cannon can be detached and wielded by Prime as a rifle called the "JF-15 Gravity Force Laser." The sides of the bumper in truck mode can detach and form arm cannons based on his ''Cybertron'' counterpart's forearms. All five weapons are compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]]. Because of the nature of the mold, additional shoulderpads [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|resembling halves of his truck cab]] were included to complete the Super Mode's resemblance to the template. The vehicle mode's cannons can be underslung and handheld similarly to the ''Cybertron'' figure thanks to the sliding pegs, but lack the original's gimmicks. Unlike Ultra Magnus, Galaxy Upgrade Optimus Prime also features flip-out support struts on the leg armor to compensate the back's weight. While they're hardly needed since the armor's bulk is heavy enough to support the weight, the pieces also prevent the leg armors from standing flat when left folded in.

:Unlike the above Voyager Class figure, this Prime is fully compatible with the [[Magnus Armor]], as is Ultra Magnus with Optimus's Super Mode gear. Also, whether intentional or not, the figure scales almost perfectly with other figures from the original Cybertron line.

:The box art of his vehicle modes is [[Stock photography#Problems with stock photos|mistransformed]], likely as a result of using CGI renders; the two shoulder pieces are shown being left on, which is genuinely impossible and in fact appear to be clipped through each other. They are instead stored inside the leg armor, which forms the back end of the trailer. Strangely, the clear blue plastic used for the cab has light bars molded in, but they are painted over in red. Presumably this is to make the inner robot appear more like G1 Optimus, but results in a less accurate vehicle mode compared to the ''Cybertron'' design. Additionally, there are existing stock photos of the figure without the wingpack and the smaller robot head flipped out.

:Specially branded for the 35th anniversary of the ''Transformers'' brand, ''Siege'' "Classic Animation Optimus Prime" is a redeco of the Voyager Class figure above, featuring a cel-shaded paint pattern that evokes his appearance in the cartoon (though the physical result is more like that of [[Transformers: Devastation|''Devastation'']]). In addition, the grey plastics and paint operations are now replaced with white, and the tire rims' paint is omitted.

:Alongside fellow cel-shaded figure [[Megatron (G1)/Generations toys#S66|Megatron]] and the other "35th Anniversary" figures, Optimus was exclusive to [[Walmart]] in the United States and Canada, and among the first figures that debuted a new, "worldwide" [[multilingual packaging]] design that merged the languages typically found on European packaging with those found on American packaging. In a bit of a snafu, though, all the English texts on his packaging are simply repeated four times, instead of being translated into French, German, Spanish, and Portuguese, or omitted in case two or more translations would be identical to each other (or to the English version).

:''[[Transformers Collaborative|Collaborative]]'' Ghostbusters x Transformers ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' MP-10G Optimus Prime Ecto-35 Edition (whew!) is a [[Ghostbusters]]-themed redeco of the MP-10 Convoy/Optimus Prime mold.

:Optimus Prime is now decoed in white, dark gray and red, with a Ghostbusters "no ghosts" logo on his right shoulder in addition to the Autobot logo on his left. The trailer is decoed similarly, with Ecto-1 style details adorning the sides, as well as green ghost splatter. Optimus's vehicle mode bumper includes an "ECTO-35" plate, which can be seen through his chest in robot mode, referencing the 35th Anniversary of both the ''Transformers'' and ''Ghostbusters'' franchises.

:He includes all his accessories, aside from [[Spike Witwicky (G1)|Spike]] and his axe, gaining a number of additional ones consistent with the theme. The trailer opens out into the "Ecto-Base," or can be stood upright as the "Ecto Maintenance Dock." A snap-on cover can be applied to Roller to turn him into a ghost trap, a painted opaque version of the [[Slimer]] figure included with Ectotron, and a "roof-rack accessory" using the same mold as [[Ectotron]]'s that pegs into the roof of the trailer. This final item converts into a proton pack for robot mode, pegging into the hole in his back, and a hose connects his ion blaster to the proton pack to serve as a particle thrower. In addition, the figure's packaging is shaped like a proton pack, complete with clips to enable the buyer to strap it to their back.

:Ectotron can ''sort of'' fit into Prime's trailer, but this requires the former's equipment rack to be removed from the roof, and clearance within the trailer prevents the trailer's rear tailgate from closing.

:Ecto-35 Edition Optimus Prime debuted as an exclusive at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] in 2019, with additional availability at Fan Expo Canada and the [[Hasbro Pulse]] online store.

**''Hasbro ID number:'' '''TT-GS01'''
**''Accessories'': [[Star Trailer]]/evolution armor, ion-blaster (formed by two blasters), [[Silver Matrix]]

:''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' Star Convoy is a retool of the [[#Power of the Primes|''Power of the Primes'' Leader Class mold]], featuring new lower legs, head, upper shoulders, and waist parts for both the armor and inner robot, and a new torso for the latter. The Optimus Prime inner robot is remolded to resemble his Generation 1 toy, complete with toy-accurate yellow eyes. Most of the armor's grey parts (especially the evolution armor's arms) are now remolded in red plastic to be more accurate to Star Convoy's character model, though there are a few sacrifices leaving some of the red patches on the trailer.

:The Matrix of Leadership is now replaced with the "Silver Matrix" that is a singular piece of plastic dipped in chrome. As such, it does not accommodate Prime Masters/Matrices/Enigmas. The Matrix can be held by 5 mm fist holes and can combine with the guns to form a "Big Bang Cannon". Unlike the original versions of the mold, Star Convoy's stickers, intended to be applied to his trailer, come on a sheet instead of being factory-applied.

:The star-shaped piece that clips into Star Convoy's chest is new to this version of the mold. Because it pegs into a small hole between the tops of the doors to Star Convoy's chest compartment, it introduces an additional step to access the matrix chamber. The red connector which attaches the star to the figure is misassembled, and flipped from its proper orientation. Due to this, the star is prone to not attaching securely to the chest and can easily pop out without much effort. A fix<ref>[https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/generations-selects-star-convoy-super-megatron-snaptrap-figures.1172403/page-113#post-17312785 Guide to rearranging the chest star for improved stability] in the TFW2005 thread for ''Selects'' Star Convoy</ref> utilized by some to address the issue involves popping out the star and connector, then flipping the connector around, before reattaching both parts to the figure. Care should be taken when handling the star and transforming Star Convoy to ensure it does not bump against other parts of the figure or experience undue stress. The stem of the star is particularly fragile and has been known to break without much force being applied to it.

:Reminiscent of the fact that the original [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Return of Convoy|''Return of Convoy'' Star Convoy]] figure could transform into a battle station, a "Z Base Mode" resembling that original battle station mode was created for the character and introduced in the ''Selects'' [[Super Megatron comic 1|Special Comic promoting Super Megatron]]. This figure (and any of the ''Power of the Primes'' Evolution Optimus Prime molds) is capable of being configured into this form. In reference to the fact that the original Star Convoy figure included a [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#Return of Convoy|Micromaster version of Hot Rod]] to man the battle station, one can populate the Z Base Mode with the [[Firebolt (G1)#Titans Return|Firedrive]] or Rodimus Prime Titan Masters from [[Hot Rod (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Hot Rod's ''Titans Return'' figure]] and the "Chaos on Velocitron" box set respectively. As said Hot Rod Micromaster could also store in the original Star Convoy figure's chest, one can also re-enact this functionality by taking a Matrix frame from a ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'' Leader Class figure and placing one of the aforementioned Titan Masters in it, then inserting the frame into Star Convoy's chest.

:This toy was released exclusively through [[TakaraTomy Mall]] and, thanks to brand unification, [[Hasbro Pulse]] and other online retailers in the United States and Canada. It is the first ''Selects'' figure to be developed by TakaraTomy.

{{toydesigner|[[Yūya Ōnishi]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Released in the first wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Earthrise]]'' Leader Class toys, Optimus Prime is an ''extensive'' retooling of the [[#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|''Siege'' Optimus mold]], now transforming into his classic cabover Earth-truck mode. Interestingly, his rear wheels are borrowed from ''[[Studio Series]]'' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#SS32|32]] and [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#SS44|44 Optimus Prime]], and even has has molded drilled-rotor brake discs, a surprising detail for a mainline ''Transformers'' figure. While the vestigial knee flaps were meant to be flipped out while transforming him into truck mode, the flaps' pegs and the elbow's rectangular holes have a slight occupying-the-same-space issue, which can result in the cab noticeably tilting frontward. If the issue persists, the flaps can be left untransformed to properly straighten the cab.

: His very cartoon-like robot mode has an opening chest compartment containing a removable [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Matrix of Leadership]] accessory; in an undocumented feature, the Matrix is able to accommodate "Fire Blast" effect parts and attach to similarly-sized posts. His new Ion Blaster rifle, now in its classic shape, is hinged to fold away the barrel for storage. His hands feature hinge joints in the knuckles, allowing for more expressive posing, with the grip coming from a [[5 mm post|5 mm semi-circle]] formed by the palm and thumb. As the front grill/wheel piece is connected with a c-clip, removing it from his back allows the waist to turn without being hindered.

: For the first time for a (non-''Masterpiece'') ''Generations'' Optimus toy, this release comes with a trailer (sadly too small to store any concurrent car-mode toy larger than the [[Cliffjumper (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|''Earthrise'' Cliffjumper]] mold when closed up) that converts into a combat deck/repair bay complete with an "artillery robot". The trailer's inner walls are loaded with 5 mm post-holes for accessory storage. The main ramp is [[A.I.R. Lock System]] compatible, and its inner section is removable so it can be used as a shield, leaving a U-shaped partial ramp so any cars on the main deck can still roll out. The trailer's artillery robot has two 5 mm post-holes up front for Fire Blast effects or other accessories, and now features ''two'' claw-arms, sadly the gaps in the claws are not 5 mm compatible. The robot can be removed from the trailer at its base and attached to other toys as a giant accessory, most notably as a "jetpack". (Coincidentally, the trailer's hitch post is at exactly the right height to let it rest inside the 5mm hole on [[Roller (G1)#Generations|''Thrilling 30'' Roller]].)

: This figure can be augmented with the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' "[[Centurion droid#Toys|Deluxe Centurion Drone Weaponizer Pack]]", which includes a non-converting long-barreled Ion Blaster, his expected Energon Axe, and [[Roller (G1)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Roller]]. The Energon Axe is specifically molded to fit onto Optimus's ''right'' hand, with the peg peg sliding into the underside of the fist. Although it ''can'' fit on his left hand if slid through the top, this puts noticeable stress on the axe's peg due to the thumb sliding up against the housing. The set also comes with [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Sideswipe]]'s jetpack, and while it is ''mainly'' designed for Sideswipe it can of course be used by Optimus, though due to a section of Optimus' back being marginally wider than the space available, some force may be required to attach the jetpack fully. Whether by coincidence or not, the Energon Strikeshield from the ''Siege'' figure can attach onto his forearms if the hands are tucked away, via the tabs on its hinged handle.

: Like all ''Earthrise'' toys, the inside of the back of Optimus's package includes an exclusive clip-and-save piece of a larger star map. Also in the box is a thin red piece of transparent plastic with which to read the star map. Optimus' piece of the map contains the labeled location of a planet called "[[Micro|MICRON]]".

[[File:TF-WFC-ER-Prime-Comparison.jpg|300px|thumb|[[Cyclonus (G1)/toys#Universe .282008.29|Dodged another shot!]] (''Stock image comparison'')]]
:Confusingly, the figure had ''many'' color differences in different official promotional images. The original 3D renders depicted his colors completely show-accurate to the G1 cartoon (minus the blue codpiece, and with quite rare toy-accurate yellow eyes), the lack of striping on the forearms/side doors, and a fully blue artillery robot for the trailer, while the pre-release prototype seen in New York Comic Con 2019 and the secondary stock photos had his hands and elbows molded in grey, with artillery robot being cast in grey and silver plastic similar to the rest of the trailer. According to [[John Warden]], this was due to the limitations of the mold. Even later, Takara's stock photos showed the figure with blue elbows and a blue and silver artillery robot. The retail release of the figure ultimately, for the most part, went with colors showcased in Hasbro's physical toy stock photos, but with previously yellow eyes now more cartoon-accurate blue, and with his hands, codpiece, and the back piece of his head painted in metallic blue. Early renders also displayed the figure's inner shins as being molded in the same blue color as the rest of the legs, although the final figure presents them cast in gray and unpainted. The sample on the TakaraTomy stock photos also depict his trailer hitch as a single piece.

: Optimus Prime first saw release in Bangkok before its actual release date in March. Optimus also saw release with a retailer incentive gift box, coming with an additional large poster promoting the [[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|''Earthrise'' cartoon]] with various signatures from the showrunners and the characters, including [[Jake Foushee|Jake Tillman]], Prime's voice actor, and a die-cast logo pin.

: The Optimus Prime robot mold was also used to make ''War for Cybertron Trilogy Selects'' [[Optimus Prime (SG)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Shattered Glass Optimus Prime]]. The trailer, including its artillery robot and shield/ramp, was redecoed for the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Nemesis Prime's]] Spoiler Pack and [[#Holiday Optimus Prime|Holiday Optimus Prime]] (see below).

:"Alternate Universe Optimus Prime" is a grayscaled redeco of the figure above with a new head that evokes the battle damage and his death in ''The Transformers: The Movie''. The Matrix of Leadership is the same as the mass retail Leader, though the Ion Blaster is painted completely silver and his rear calves are painted. Another change is the number of lugnuts on the wheels of the trailer. The normal retail version has 10 lug nuts per wheel, whilst this release has none. He is packaged in a ''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Selects]]''-styled box that depicts Ultra Magnus, Hot Rod, and [[Arcee (G1)|Arcee]] grieving during his death scene reflected on a window of his damaged truck mode.
:There are reported issues where the left chest piece is unable to tab in fully due to a deformed pin, leaving a small uneven gap visible in robot mode.

:This is the only ''Earthrise'' toy to lack an ID number and map piece and isn't part of the Galactic Odyssey Collection. Coincidentally, Hasbro ID number WFC-E28 is never used in the toyline within its range of E1 to E41, lending to the possibility that WFC-E28 was intended to be his.

:Alternate Universe Optimus Prime was supposed to release as an exclusive for Amazon Prime Day 2020, though the day was pushed back several months, making the toy release much earlier. The figure first saw release in some Malaysian hobby shops ''before'' it was fully revealed on Hasbro's June 26 [[Hasbro Pulse#Fan First Friday|Fan First Friday]] stream. The figure was later released in Japan as a [[TakaraTomy Mall]] exclusive as part of the 7th wave of TakaraTomy ''Selects'' toys.

:Promoting the ''Earthrise'' chapter of the [[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' cartoon]], this version of Optimus Prime is a trailer-less redeco of the ''Earthrise'' Leader Class mold in darker colors more reminiscent of his [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#The Transformers|G1 figure]]. He comes with Battle Masters Enerax and Sheeldron, translucent yellow redecoes of ''Siege'' [[Pteraxadon#Toys|Pteraxadon]] and ''Earthrise'' [[Soundbarrier#Toys|Soundbarrier]] respectively, without the effects parts. In terms of deco, Optimus's blue plastic/paint operations and the unpaintable gray joints are replaced with the same darker shade of blue (which also coincidentally resembles the erroneous deco used for most of TakaraTomy's stock photos of the mold), additional blue paint has been added to his legs, the molded detail in the center of his pelvis is painted yellow, the interiors of his opening chest windows are unpainted, the translucent plastic is tinted green, and the eyes are a non-metallic light blue.

:The stock renders for both the robot and vehicle modes are inconsistent with the later stock photos: They reuse his deco from the ''Earthrise'' renders, but with blue eyes, green windows, and battle-damage paint apps that are absent on the final toy. The forearms are depicted as stripeless in robot mode, while the rear hip piece and the thighs are differently colored in the truck mode render.

:While Optimus Prime never appears in his ''Earthrise'' body in the cartoon, he was initially planned to for the ''Earthrise'' and ''Kingdom'' chapters, the idea from which this toy is based. A cartoon CGI render of this ''Earthrise'' Optimus Prime can be seen in the ''[[The Art and Making of Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy]]''.<ref>[https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/809631133117579284/1030455864034865164/20221014_082228.jpg Unused Earthrise Optimus CGI Model] from ''[[The Art and Making of Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' book</ref>

{{note|This figure of [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Nemesis Prime]] also represents a "much darker future" of Optimus Prime in the [[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]] cartoon.}}

:Promoting the ''Earthrise'' chapter of the [[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' cartoon]], this ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' Leader Unboxing set contains a redeco of ''Siege'' Voyager Class [[#War for Cybertron: Siege|Optimus Prime]] as Nemesis Prime. The figure comes with ''Siege'' Optimus's "W-M3 RF Ion Blaster" (but not his "W-50 Dual-Mech Energon Strikeshield") plus a sizeable number of extras that beef up the price. These include: a redecoed trailer from ''Earthrise'' [[#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Optimus Prime]]; the Dark Saber, [[Giza (POTP)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Giza]], and large forearm blaster accessories, all from the [[#Power_of_the_Primes|''Power of the Primes'' Evolution Leader Class toy]]; [[Fangtron#Toys|Fangtron]], a [[redeco]] of ''Earthrise'' Battle Master [[Slitherfang#Toys|Slitherfang]], along with their blast effect part; and a compound through which a buyer can dig to reveal energon cubes, rereleased from ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Ultra Magnus's]] Spoiler Pack. Fangtron and the shield/Combat Deck ramp are both compatible with the [[A.I.R. Lock System]], as the former can turn into a ramp or a shield for Nemesis Prime. This toy also features a different deco compared to the TakaraTomy Mall exclusive. Namely, he is in fact molded in very dark gray plastic as opposed to the deep black of the Takara version, and the vehicle stripes, bumper guns, and wheel rims are silver instead of teal.

:The Hasbro stock photography for the truck mode is also ''laughably'' mistransformed, with the robot mode crotch being plainly visible, an error that actually requires a considerable amount of effort to replicate with the actual toy. In addition, neither the truck windows nor panels that cover the robot mode hands are compressed fully.

:Much like previous Spoiler Pack, this set is in a windowless box designed to look like an ammo crate and features translatable [[Cybertronian language|Ancient Autobot]]. The text on the package reads "FANGTRON" and "GIZA", while the 'spoiler' text inside features a Decepticon-themed quote: "YOU MUST STAY TRUE / TO WHOM THE MATRIX HAS / CHOSEN, FOR IF YOU / DON’T, A MUCH / DARKER FUTURE AWAITS" and an Autobot-themed one: "THE DEAD UNIVERSE IS / UNLIKE ANYTHING YOU’VE / EXPERIENCED, PRIME", which are both quotes from [[Sky Lynx (G1)|Sky Lynx]] in [[Earthrise episode 5]]. The lateral side of the package also features artwork of Nemesis Prime, edited from art of ''Earthrise'' Optimus Prime. Compared to the previous Spoiler Pack, the packaging itself has no plastic insert.

:This set is a shared exclusive between online retailers and [[Walmart]] in Canada and the USA. In New Zealand, the set was sold exclusively at Toy World and Mighty Ape. Like the previous Spoiler Pack, the TakaraTomy release is packaged in a standard windowed box.

:Part of the first wave of the ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]'' Core Class toys, Optimus Prime is a smaller, roughly Legends-sized mold that according to his product copy and stock images is meant to be posed with larger toys of the same character, but we would be stupid not to note that he is also a good size to interact with Titan Class figures. His transformation shares engineering with the [[#Thrilling 30|''Thrilling 30'' Legends figure]], but with sculpted detailing directly based on the ''Earthrise'' mold, down to details like the ''vestigial knee flaps'' from the ''Siege'' mold. The included Ion Blaster features a 3 mm handle under a 5 mm post, dedicated to the C.O.M.B.A.T. System. He is also fairly articulated for a figure this small, having head rotation and tilting, torso rotation (which actually looks a bit unnatural), ab crunch, butterfly joints at the shoulders, and ball joints in shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees.

:Unlike the actual product, the truck door section of the wrist/hand part is unpainted in the CG stock render. Curiously, his instructions depict an Energon axe that was notably left out of the final release, and was not shown in stock photos.

:In Japan, Optimus Prime was released as a [[TakaraTomy Mall]] exclusive. This mold was later redecoed into ''[[Transformers: Legacy#Evolution .282023.29|Legacy: Evolution]]'' [[Nemesis Prime (G1)#Legacy|Nemesis Prime]], while utilizing the unused Energon Axe.

{{toydesigner|[[Lenny Panzica]] (Hasbro)|[[Emiliano Santalucia]] (concept artist), [[AJ Piejko-Brown]] (packaging)}}

:Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Legacy|Legacy]]'' Leader Class toys, "Laser Optimus Prime" is an updated version of his [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#LaserOptimusPrime|''Generation 2'' design]] which transforms into a mid-1990s Western Star 4964EX, with deco and sculpt details most directly based on the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#G2Reissue|2006 "Battle Convoy" reissue version's modified deco and stickers]] with a flame deco on the front from [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#RTSDeluxe|his 2010 Deluxe Class figure]]. He includes an Energon sword, an Energon axe, a new removable Matrix of Leadership which echoes the sticker details of the 2006 reissue, and a trailer that can transform into a battle station (tanker deco of Optimus burning down a forest not included, sadly) with a small detachable double barreled cannon. The axe and sword can store either inside the trailer or on the cab, with the sword storing underneath the rear section of the cab like the original and the axe slotting in over the trailer hitch. In tanker mode, the trailer's claw arm can be folded down to act as a jack to allow it to stand freely. His signature shoulder pylons can open outwards to reveal missile pods. He has restricted arm movement as the shoulder pylons do not rotate, whilst the real arms start beneath the flap.

: Not mentioned in his instructions, the sword and axe can combine into a larger sword. His Matrix can be attached to the axe or the combined sword, using the rectangular peg near the axes' haft (normally meant to keep the handle folded neatly for storage). The chest slot where the Matrix plugs in is open in the back, seemingly meant to allow for [[light-piping]] in robot mode. His eyes feature neutered light-piping due to the back of his head being painted over, but the eyes themselves are left unpainted.

:Most of Laser Optimus Prime's lower body, including his hips, thighs, the front of his lower legs (except for the shin vents), and feet, reuse elements from the ''Earthrise'' toy above whereas other details like his crotch, shins, back of the lower legs, tires, and the entirety of his upper body are brand-new. Like the ''Earthrise'' toy, the shins have the ''Siege'' figure's trailer hitch on the outside. Laser Optimus' trailer can be attached to ''Earthrise'' Optimus, as well as ''Siege'' Optimus, ''Kingdom'' Huffer, and ''Kingdom'' Pipes. This figure is also similarly compatible with the trailer included with ''Earthrise'' Optimus.

:The [[Hasbro Pulse]] listing for the figure lists him under the name "G2 Universe Laser Optimus Prime", while the packaging itself merely labels him as "Laser Optimus Prime". Despite his origins, Optimus has no G2 faction symbols, only a silver G1 Autobot insignia on his left cab door.

:This figure was redecoed into ''Legacy Velocitron Speedia 500 Collection'' "[[Scourge (RID)#Legacy|Robots In Disguise 2000 Universe Scourge]]" and ''Legacy Toxitron Collection'' "[[Toxitron (Universe)#Legacy|G2 Universe Toxitron]]", while the sword, axe, and Matrix were redecoed into ''Shattered Glass Collection'' [[Ultra Magnus (SG)#Shattered Glass Collection|Ultra Magnus]]'s [[Terminus Blade]].

:A fairly extensive retool of ''[[Studio Series]]'' [[Kup (G1)/toys#Studio Series|Kup]] with a new cartoon-accurate head, chest, and legs, transforming into a Cybertronian pickup truck... and is a clear homage to the [[e-HOBBY]]-exclusive [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Collector's Edition|release from 2005]]. Pax comes with both a red pistol and an [[Energon goodie]] dispenser, both also reused from ''Studio Series'' Kup.

:Orion Pax retains Kup's removable arm and leg feature, which is compatible with any 5mm port or post. Additionally—whether or not it was intentional— Orion Pax's shoulders and hips are inverted straight out of the box, differentiating the overall design from Kup. If one doesn't like them this way, a simple twist of the joints will put them back into the orientation they are on Kup.

:Unfortunately, Orion Pax suffers from the same design issue as the mold's original release. The painted robot mode crotch area that is part of the vehicle mode undercarriage does not fold up far enough to prevent dragging and paint damage, thus care should be taken when the figure is transformed.

:This figure is a part of a [[Hasbro Pulse]]-exclusive 2-pack; also including [[Alpha Trion (G1)#Legacy|Alpha Trion]] with [[Vector Sigma#Legacy|Vector Sigma]] and [[Key to Vector Sigma#Legacy|its Key]]. The set was put up for preorder during [[Hasbro Pulse Con 2022|Pulse Con 2022]], and began appearing in Hong Kong stores shortly afterwards.

:[[Taiwan]]ese fans who supported the [[Hasbro Pulse#HasLab|HasLab]] [[Star Saber (G1)#Legacy|Victory Saber]] project ended up getting the "A Hero Is Born" set instead (along with a full refund) after their Victory Sabers were severely water damaged during shipment and could not be delivered.

:A surprise reveal at [[MCM Comic-Con London 2022]], "Holiday Optimus Prime" converts in 37 steps from a licensed {{w|Volvo VN|Volvo VNR 300}}–known throughout the United States as an "[[Amazon (website)|Amazon Prime]] truck"–into a very [[Hero (G2)|Combat Hero]]-styled Optimus Prime with a decidedly [[Santa Claus]]ish color layout, in predominantly red deco with white trim and big black boots. The truck mode is decoed so as to represent snow kicking up over the fenders and falling down onto the roof of his trailer. Said trailer is a redeco of the one included with [[#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|''Earthrise'' Optimus Prime]] in white with red stripes and features a [[tampograph]]ed Autobot [[insignia]] wearing a Santa hat. It also has a new trailer-hitch add-on part with a much further-back hitch-peg, so the trailer connects in the proper place to Optimus's new truck mode; this part is removable so you can use the trailer with the originally-compatible ''Earthrise'' toys. In terms of accessories, Prime comes with a redeco of the ''Earthrise'' toy's ion blaster in festive candy cane striping, as well as a "Matrix of Holiday Cheer" to store behind his translucent green [[Kibble#"Faux-parts"|chest windows]].

:Prime's box is designed to look as though it has been pre-packaged in Autobot insignia/snowflake wrapping paper and partially ripped open to reveal the toy inside, even including a printed-on to/from gift tag!

:''Optimus Prime is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Transformers: EarthSpark (franchise)|EarthSpark]] [[continuity family]].''
[[File:Optimusprime-earthspark-stock.jpg|upright=1.5|thumb|The dad of the task force.]]

Long ago, '''Optimus Prime''' took up arms to save [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] from [[Megatron (ES)|Megatron]] and his [[Decepticon]]s, a conflict that eventually brought him and his followers to [[Earth]]. Although he and the [[Autobot]]s finally blunted the Decepticon advance and shattered their ranks for good, victory left them stranded on a world that had turned against them.

In his new role as a [[G.H.O.S.T.]] operative, Optimus now serves as a liason between humanity and his own kind as he mops up Decepticon stragglers with the assistance of [[Elita-1 (ES)|Elita-1]] and the repentant Megatron. The bumpy post-war transition weighs heavily upon him, as do the occasionally-amoral actions of his human colleagues, but Optimus perseveres; only by bringing the people of Earth and Cybertron together can they forge a unified future, and the rise of a new generation of Earth-born "[[Terran]]s" might be the first step on the road to permanent peace.

To this end, Optimus tries hard, really ''really'' hard, to be #Relatable to the humans, earnestly attempting to put on a non-threatening, light-hearted tone when dealing with them... despite the fact that it smashes headlong into the wall of his natural stoicism and gravitas. He needs handwritten cue cards to remind him to smile. He's given to Dad Jokes that would even give [[Alex Malto]] pause. His text messages are overloaded with emojis. But as laughably cringe as his attempts are, it's all utterly ''sincere''. His desire for peace and harmony with the people of Earth burns deep in the core of his [[spark]]. He's honestly trying his hardest, no matter how difficult it is. He wouldn't be Optimus if he didn't.

[[File:Optimus and Elita alt-modes.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.66|"Hey honey, it's been [[:File:ElitaVehicle01.jpg|a while]] since we drove together like this. Weren't you on my left side last time?"]]

The Autobots, led by Optimus Prime, fought against the Decepticons on Cybertron. In [[1984]], the war resulted in both factions traveling to Earth by [[space bridge]] where the Autobots gained human allies in their struggle. The war ended when Optimus destroyed the space bridge, stranding the factions on Earth and forcing them to work together. The humans immortalized the conflict in a comic book series.

Years later, Optimus worked alongside Megatron as a part of the covert human organization [[G.H.O.S.T.]] to round up the Decepticons who were still making trouble. He and Elita-1 ambushed [[Swindle (ES)|Swindle]] and [[Hardtop (ES)|Hardtop]], and despite being unexpectedly attacked by [[Arachnamech]]s, managed to capture Hardtop. While later investigating the crash of the truck transporting Hardtop, Optimus and Elita encountered old ally [[Dot Malto]], and were joined by Megatron. {{storylink|Secret Legacy, Part 1}} Optimus released some of [[Wheeljack (ES)|Wheeljack]]'s drones in an attempt to learn more about the mysterious Arachnamechs. When that turned up nothing, Optimus's group continued the search and found the Arachnamechs in the process of attacking Dot's children and two new Transformers who had been created on Earth. Optimus's belief that [[Twitch]] and [[Thrash (ES)|Thrash]] would be safest in G.H.O.S.T. custody resulted in the pair being captured by human villain [[Mandroid]] who provided a fake G.H.O.S.T. transport. Following the rescues of the two "Terrans", Optimus was instead in favor of Dot taking care of them, and assigned [[Bumblebee (ES)|Bumblebee]] as their teacher. {{storylink|Secret Legacy, Part 2}}

[[File:ES-Ep01-05 OptimusCoolPose.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Fonzimus Prime]]

Bumblebee attempted to contact Optimus to get advice on teaching, only to get Megatron and Elita-1 as Optimus was indisposed. Optimus later returned his calls, but Bee was busy with Family Game Night by that point. {{storylink|Moo-ving In}} While searching for a dangerous Decepticon who'd been spotted near [[Witwicky (town)|Witwicky]], Optimus found the Terrans and Dot's kids caught in a Decepticon pit trap. He hid them in his trailer in the G.H.O.S.T. base while he took Dot on her orientation. He and Dot later had to extract the kids from Megatron's combat simulation after they went wandering, and smuggled them out of the base, though Optimus was uncomfortable at having to show Dot the accommodations provided for the captured Decepticon. {{storylink|Classified}}

Optimus and Megatron were lured to an abandoned factory after [[Ravage (ES)|Ravage]], [[Laserbeak (ES)|Laserbeak]] and [[Frenzy (ES)|Frenzy]] stole [[Jon Schloder|Agent Schloder]]'s ID badge, and with his comms down, Optimus was forced to phone [[Mo Malto]] to ask Bumblebee to send backup. Bumblebee instead turned up himself, and the trio managed to subdue the three cassettes. They headed back to base and en route were ambushed by [[Soundwave (ES)|Soundwave]]. With the help of [[Arcee (ES)|Arcee]] and the Maltos, Optimus and his team were able to triumph, however Megatron talked Optimus into at least letting the three cassettes go before they took Soundwave to G.H.O.S.T. {{storylink|Decoy (episode)|Decoy}}

[[File:Earthspark-AOE1-SayCheese.jpg|upright=1.66|left|thumb|]]
When G.H.O.S.T. held a ceremony celebrating the human/Autobot alliance, Optimus and Megatron found themselves defending the humans against [[Skywarp (ES)|Skywarp]] and [[Nova Storm (ES)|Nova Storm]], who had come intending to procure Optimus's left arm for Mandroid. Though the Decepticons were successfully defeated, they avoided being captured. Regrouping with the Maltos and Terrans at a burger bar, Optimus learned that the Terrans had been brought online by a glowing rock and resolved to investigate further. This led them to recover the [[Emberstone]], just in time for Skywarp and Nova Storm to again attack, this time revealing that Megatron and Dot had been captured by Mandroid as barter for Optimus's arm. {{storylink|Age of Evolution, Part 1}} Optimus and Bumblebee managed to capture the pair and discovered that the Emberstone had created three more Terrans. Aiming to rescue Dot and Megatron, Optimus came up with a plan for him, Thrash and Twitch to pose as prisoners being brought in by the newborn Terrans. Mandroid quickly saw through the ruse, however it gave the group the opportunity to free Dot and Megatron, and after Mandroid revealed his base was actually a giant mech, the group fought together to destroy it, with Optimus expressing pride and hope in the bonds between the Maltos, both human and Terran. {{storylink|Age of Evolution, Part 2}}

Sometime after Bumblebee got exposed by G.H.O.S.T., Optimus sent the scout on another undercover mission infiltrating a "Bot Brawl" ring to find the missing [[Grimlock (ES)|Grimlock]]. {{storylink|Home, Part 1}}

:''Bumblebee is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Transformers: EarthSpark (franchise)|EarthSpark]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:Bumblebee-Earthsparkstockart.jpg|right|thumb|300px|Bumblebee, I see your value now.]]

'''Bumblebee''' has been at [[Optimus Prime (ES)|Optimus Prime's]] side since the Autobots arrived from [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] back in the 1980s. Famous for his daring skills and high-speed driving abilities, it was a shock when he vanished, going undercover for years at the behest of his commander. Now, in the modern day, he's returned not to reclaim the spotlight as an Autobot hero, but to teach the newest generation of Transformers, the [[Terran]]s, who have been adopted by the [[human]] Malto family.

His reputation and experience has made Bumblebee somewhat ill-equipped to handle his new mentorship role. He'd rather be in the middle of trashing Decepticons than lesson planning, and he's bought into his own hype, expecting others to immediately listen to him and follow his orders or advice. It's been a rude awakening for a bot who thinks he's one of the best, combined with the fact that he has to keep his own existence a secret from [[G.H.O.S.T.]]. But his [[spark]] is in the right place, and he's found a surprising confidant in his self-proclaimed biggest fan, [[Alex Malto]]. Bumblebee may be the Terrans' teacher, but maybe the Maltos can teach him something about what's he's been missing for years: being part of a family.

Bumblebee fought alongside the Autobots in their war against the Decepticons, becoming a key ally of [[Optimus Prime (ES)|Optimus Prime]]. While initially staying behind on Cybertron to hold the line, he ended up joining his allies on Earth, becoming one of many stranded there. {{storylink|Secret Legacy, Part 1}} Bumblebee played a crucial role in the last battle of the war, in which he helped deliver the [[AllSpark]] relay-race style towards a [[Space bridge]] portal back to Cybertron to hopefully revitalize it and keep it out of Decepticon hands. {{storylink|Warzone}} After the war ended, he suddenly disappeared, with many believing he had perished. In truth, he had actually gone into hiding, with a select few being made aware of his location. He spent some time taking part in drag races at the [[Tagbilarian City]] airport in the [[Philippines]] and became familiar with the legend of the [[Wakwak]]. {{storylink|Traditions}}

[[File:MoovingIn-Bumblebeetransforms.jpg|right|thumb|350px|Some flies are too awesome for the wall.]]

Years later, Bumblebee's hiatus was bought to an end when Optimus came to him with a new mission. First, he aided in battling a group of Decepticons controlled by [[Mandroid]], saving his biggest fan [[Alex Malto]] from the Insecticon [[Bombshell (ES)|Bombshell]]. Afterwards, Bumblebee was given his true assignment: mentoring the newly created Terrans [[Twitch]] and [[Thrash (ES)|Thrash]] alongside the Malto family, much to Alex's joy (and Bumblebee's chagrin). That night he showed up to a Malto family cookout, beginning his stay with them. {{storylink|Secret Legacy, Part 2}}

Bee's initial attempts to get the Terrans interested in training were largely ignored, and he was unable to reach Optimus for advice. Even taking part in the Malto Family Game Night resulted in Twitch getting angry at him, and it was only after he successfully helped her rescue [[Fluffy Ears]] from the train tracks that the Terrans were more open to training. {{storylink|Moo-ving In}} Bumblebee helped Alex repair the house after Twitch and Thrash damaged it during training. He was later alarmed when Thrash and Mo were befriended by [[Swindle (ES)|Swindle]], and joined Dot in chasing the Decepticon off once the inevitable betrayal happened. {{storylink|House Rules}} While [[Jon Schloder|Agent Schloder]] was working with Dot, Bumblebee had to hide in the barn in vehicle form. Unfortunately Schloder found him and, assuming he was a regular sports car, insisted on requisitioning Bee for his search. Bee drew the line at Schloder eating a powdered donut in his interior, locking the agent out, and Schloder opted to requisition a more reliable vehicle. {{storylink|Classified}}

Bumblebee failed to get the hand of [[basketball]], leading Alex to invite him on a [[Wakwak]] hunt. The pair bonded on the hunt, with Alex teaching Bee his kali defense techniques, and Bumblebee headed back to the house to pick up Mo and Robby, believing the kids were missing out. Bee got to hear Mo and Thrash's new musical skills, and they were visited by [[Wheeljack (ES)|Wheeljack]]. {{storylink|Traditions}} Twitch and Thrash began experiencing malfunctions during Bee's training lessons, and sensing that emotional feedback from the kids was distracting them, Bee took the two Terrans on a more practical scouting expedition to the kid's school. When Twitch and Thrash disappeared, Bee and the kids tracked them and found Thrash was almost out of [[energon]]. As they later learned, it was because the Terrans were powered by Earth water rather than energon, and Bumblebee discovered an ancient message left by [[Quintus Prime]]. {{storylink|Friends and Family}}

When Optimus contacted Bumblebee to ask for backup, Bee saw his opportunity to get involved with big boy work, and left the Terrans to train with [[Arcee (ES)|Arcee]]. He was able to help Optimus and Megatron to capture three cassette bots. As they transported their captives to a [[G.H.O.S.T.]] base, they were attacked by [[Soundwave (ES)|Soundwave]]. After Arcee and the Terrans joined the battle, Bumblebee opted to return to his duties training the Twitch and Thrash. {{storylink|Decoy (episode)|Decoy}} During a G.H.O.S.T. Autobot Alliance ceremony, Bumblebee had to stay home with the Terrans to maintain his cover. He and Optimus went with the Terrans to track down the cave they were born in, leading them to battle [[Skywarp (ES)|Skywarp]] and [[Nova Storm (ES)|Nova Storm]] when the pair turned up intending to take Optimus's arm. {{storylink|Age of Evolution, Part 1}} Bumblebee joined the search for Mandroid's base so they could rescue Dot and Megatron. Unfortunately said base turned out to be a giant mech, which resulted in Bee and the others working together to defeat it. {{storylink|Age of Evolution, Part 2}}

[[File:TV Magazine Cog.jpg|upright=1.67|thumb|Clockwise from top: Cog, Gasket, and Grommet. Not pictured: Widget, Doodad, and Thingamajigger.]]

'''Cog''' is the combined robotic form of [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress Maximus]]'s vehicular drones, '''Gasket''' and '''Grommet'''. Cog has no independent will of his (its?) own and is completely under Maximus's control. Functioning as both mechanic and warrior, he allows Fortress Maximus to be at other places while in city mode, as well as to interact with more normally-sized beings.<ref>Fortress Maximus's bios in the [[The Transformers Universe|Marvel ''Transformers Universe'']] and [[Transformers: More than Meets the Eye|Dreamwave ''More than Meets the Eye'']]. Remarkably, the two bios entirely agree with each other's presentation of Cog, as his drone status had already been established in Fortress Maximus's on-package bio.</ref>

When Cog is feeling at his most sentient, he's quick to express skepticism in his leaders' actions, even directly to [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]]. Someone's got to be the wet blanket, because sometimes the wet blanket's correct.

Cog was among [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress Maximus]]'s troops that ambushed a prisoner-of-war death march led by [[Scorponok (G1)|Scorponok]]. He stood at Fortress Maximus's side as he held the troops, waiting for the perfect moment to strike, then split into his component vehicles Gasket and Grommet for the attack. Cog returned to [[robot mode]] by the time the Decepticons' battle line broke, and he counseled Fortress Maximus to finish off the fleeing Decepticons. Maximus refused, instead calling for a mutual retreat. Both Cog's [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]]s were seen returning to the [[Manganese Mountains]] with the rescued prisoners.

Much later, after a disastrous military confrontation with the natives on planet [[Nebulos]], [[:File:Marveluk133 cog sedition.jpg|Cog]] was one of the Autobots that gathered around [[Kup (G1)|Kup]] to talk smack about Fortress Maximus's pacifist-aggressive leadership style. {{storylink|Ring of Hate!}}

When [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] reported to the Autobots camped within the ''[[Ark (G1)|Ark]]'' that [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]] had surrendered to [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]], Cog warned that them Ultra Magnus knew the location of their base and all their secrets. Therefore, his actions had put them all in danger. After Optimus explained to everyone that Ultra Magnus had sent a message claiming Megatron was hunting for the [[AllSpark]], Cog countered that A) the AllSpark was a myth and B) any action the Autobots could take to counter this plan could be a trap. Cog was among the Autobots who checked out the coordinates in Ultra Magnus' message before being surrounded by hostile Decepticons, as he had predicted. Cog was shot through his midsection by [[Impactor (G1)|Impactor]] and had to be dragged off the battlefield. Once back at the ''Ark'', Cog was repaired by [[Red Alert (G1)|Red Alert]]. {{storylink|Siege episode 2}}

After Cog returned to duty, Optimus used the [[Alpha Trion Protocols]] to locate the AllSpark within the [[Rust Sea|Sea of Rust]]. Cog warned Optimus that no Autobot who entered the region had ever returned. While Optimus led a team into the Sea of Rust despite his warnings, Cog joined [[Bumblebee (G1)|Bumblebee]] and [[Arcee (G1)|Arcee]] in grifting [[Energon]] from the elusive [[Mercenary]] [[Soundblaster (G1)|Soundblaster]]. Thanks to [[Buzzsaw (G1)|Buzzsaw]], however, Soundblaster found the trio out. Cog transformed and weaponized Arcee to aid in their escape. {{storylink|Siege episode 5}} Returning to the ''Ark'' with enough Energon to power its launch, Cog helped defense the ship from a Decepticon siege as it flew towards a [[space bridge]]. Ultimately, Cog and the rest of the ''Ark'' crew disappeared through the space bridge to a location unknown. {{storylink|Siege episode 6}}

[[File:WFC-Earthrise-Ep6-Cog-dying-in-Fortune.jpg|thumb|left|300px|I'm no longer going to make people awesome...]]
Cog was on the bridge of the ''Ark'' as it mistakingly journeyed through the [[Dead Universe]]. {{Storylink|Earthrise episode 5}} After exiting the Dead Universe, the ''Ark'', ''[[Nemesis (G1)|Nemesis]]'', and ''[[Fool's Fortune]]'' locked in a dogfight over [[Earth]]. Coming upon Optimus locked in battle with Megatron, Cog arrived just in time to see Optimus violently threaten Megatron's life. When the ''Fool's Fortune'' fired on the ''Ark'', Cog was sucked into space through a hole in the ship. Infiltrating the Mercenary ship, Cog knocked both [[Bug Bite (G1)|Bug Bite]] and [[Exhaust]] overboard, before making his way to the ship's bridge. Finding that Deseeus was controlling the ship in an attempt to destroy the Autobots and Decepticons, Cog pulled a gun on the Quintesson and shot off one of his tentacles. After being knocked into Doubledealer's chair by a blast from the ''Nemesis'', Cog was stabbed by Deseeus as he made his escape. The mortally wounded Cog sent a message to both the ''Ark'' and the ''Nemesis'' that he had taken the ''Fool's Fortune'' and asked them to stop firing. Unfortunately, the ''Fool's Fortune'' exploded, killing Cog and sending the other ships crashing down to Earth in the process. {{storylink|Earthrise episode 6}}

While the Autobots and [[Maximal]]s searched for the Allspark in a forest on Earth, the object produced an illusion of Cog to Arcee, as part of its defense mechanism. Arcee admitted that Cog couldn't be real. {{storylink|Kingdom episode 3}} After the Allspark was returned to Cybertron, revitalizing it, the Autobots, Maximals, Decepticons, and Predacons resolved their ongoing war and built a statue depicting an Autobot Cog-model soldier and a Decepticon [[Reflector (G1)|Refraktor]]-model soldier standing together, back-to-back. {{storylink|Kingdom episode 6}}

**''Accessories'': 2 "RT-5 Circuit Welder" pistols

:Part of the first wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' Deluxe Class figures, Cog transforms from robot into armored vehicle and back. Cog also retains his ability to split into Gasket and Grommet, a trait proudly demonstrated by the packaging artwork. His official alternate mode is a combined half-track vehicle consisting of the two individual vehicles plugged together. However, the flat rectangular tab that holds them together doesn't have a particularly tight fit and has a tendency to come undone during handling. With multiple [[5 mm post|5 mm ports]] and 3 mm posts, he can also accommodate "Fire Blast" effect pieces from the [[Battle Master]]s assortment to simulate blaster fire, or ''taking'' blaster fire. His forearms also have minor hints of battle damage. Cog's transformation is also the most simple of the ''Siege'' "Weaponizer" molds, as it only requires the detachment of three parts.

:As a Weaponizer, he can also be disassembled into an arsenal of weapons, armor, and other upgrades compatible with various other ''Siege'' figures as part of the interchangeable/connectable-weapon [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]]... or, really, ''any'' figures with [[5 mm post]] attachment points. He splits into a "C-40 Neutron Synthesis Shield" (torso), "C-LR Thermal Booster" (hips and waist), two "C-HV Electro-Scramblers" (arms), and two "C-M3 HF Spectrum Disruptors" (legs), with a pair of "RT-5 Circuit Welders" (his handguns) left over. His instructions show two suggested combinations with ''Siege'' Deluxe Class [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Sideswipe]]: the "Defensive Loadout" turns Cog into a shield, pair of platform shoes, and an anti-aircraft backpack, while the "Offensive Loadout" uses nearly all his parts to make a huge artillery-laden backpack with marginally bigger cannons. "[[The Road to Legends' Revival Chapter 4: LG-EX Big Powered Prologue Part One]]" of the ''[[Transformers Legends (comic)|Legends]]'' comic includes a configuration with ''[[Transformers Legends (franchise)|Legends]]'' [[Fortress Maximus (G1)/toys#Legends|Fortress Maximus]] (and of course, any of his redecoes), which turns Cog into four pieces of weaponry to attach to the Titan.

:Cog's "G1" toy and character model both have his front portion as a six-wheeled vehicle, with the middle pair of wheels being coloured gray (as they're molded into the torso). The ''Siege'' toy reinterprets this central pair as simply being circular detail for the shoulder joints. Meanwhile, the treads of the back portion of the vehicle have been flipped upside-down, perhaps to better hide the wheels the toy rolls on. The treads are actually removable, each tightly attached with three small pegs, and can be swapped, but sculpting on the inside stops them from sitting flush in anything other than the default position.

:The 5 mm pegs on his guns are trimmed on the side, and consequently don't fit securely into his hands or the 5 mm ports on other figures. Additionally, most of the pegholes featured on Cog's body are in fact hexagonal as opposed to circular, which combined with the trimmed circles leaves them unable to stay positioned properly. A [[Variant#Running changes|running change]] solved this problem by slightly altering the shape of the handles to make them rounder; this change was retained later versions of the mold.

:Though designated for release in the first quarter of 2019, Cog's wave reached U.S. store shelves in late 2018.

:This mold serves as the basis for the [[Comms Officer]], [[Security Officer (G1)|Security Officer]], and other assorted [[generic]] Autobots from the [[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|Netflix cartoon]] and was [[retool]]ed with a new head to make ''Siege'' [[Aragon#Generations|Aragon]].

:Sergeant Cog, Artillery-Mechanic is one of forty-eight double-sided character cards available in Wave 3 of the ''[[Transformers Trading Card Game]]'', War for Cybertron: Siege I. As a [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System|Weaponizer]], Sergeant Cog, Artillery-Mechanic begins the game in Bot Mode. Instead of being sent to the KO Area once his Health drops to zero, the card is flipped to the Upgrade side, becoming the Heavy Force Defensebreaker Cannon, and equipped in the Weapons slot of another character on the player's side of the battlefield.

==Notes==
[[File:Marveluk130 cog dewback.jpg|110px|thumb|You're ''not helping,'' England.]]
* Cog and his components were variously miscolored in almost every appearance in the ''[[The Transformers: Headmasters|Headmasters]]'' book. Such art errors were common in the miniseries. [[:File:Marvelhm01 gromet decepticon.jpg|The one time]] any of his components was colored ''right'' was when Grommet was shown fighting alongside the [[Decepticon]]s.
* Cog's appearance in the ''Headmasters'' comic is a possible art error: he's colored like [[Hardhead (G1)|Hardhead]], and his advice to Fortress Maximus suits Hardhead's aggressive nature. So a possible explanation is that Hardhead was incorrectly drawn as Cog, and [[Nelson Yomtov|the colorist]] was actually using the correct color scheme from the scripted character. This is supported by the fact that Fortress Maximus is also colored correctly—but is drawn like Hardhead!
* In the UK printing, someone noticed the errors and decided that the colors and script were wrong, not the line-art. So the dialogue was changed to have Cog addressing Hardhead, not Fortress Maximus. Unfortunately, not only does this negate the possibility that what appears to be Cog is actually Hardhead himself, but it also attributes the followup line ("There's been enough destruction!") to Hardhead, which does not suit his personality at all.
*Cog's comic book appearance uses Cerebros's cartoon head design. In turn, ''Siege'' Cog homages Cerebros's distinct mouthplate as opposed to the traditional mouthplate on his original toy.
*Gasket and Grommet's "appearance" in "The Rebirth" is due to their toys having the gimmick of being able to be stored in Fortress Maximus's feet. This was likely the case in photos of the toy given to the animation studio, which led to the character model for Fortress Maximus's third mode including the cannons in the feet.

Andrusi: /* Honorable mentions */

:''Andrusi is a [[human]] in the [[Movie (franchise)|2007 movie]] continuity family.

Andrusi is a Transformers Wiki user who is endlessly amused by imagining the possibility of there someday being a series called "Transformers: Disambiguation."

He does not work for Sector 7, but he's on their side.

==Early life==
Andrusi was born in [[Mission City|Los Angeles, California]]. At the age of 2, he was listed in the magazine ''[[Super Robot Magazine|Strange as it Seems]]'' as the world's youngest professional [[Cyclonus (Armada)|ice skater]]. At the age of 19, working for a minor [[Primus|real estate]] company, he decided to audition for the part of Robin, without having ever read a "Batman" [[Marvel Comics|comic book]]. Andrusi was selected for the role of Robin, stepping onto the screen in [[Transformers timeline|1966]] with the debut of Batman. Unfortunately, unlike his partner, Andrusi was required to act during dangerous [[Sunstreaker (G1)|stunt]]work because his [[Alternate mode|costume]] revealed more of his face than a [[Sideswipe (G1)|stuntman]] could compensate for.

==Post-Batman career==
After the end of ''Batman'', Andrusi found himself hard-pressed for other acting jobs. Andrusi only reemerged on the [[Transformers (2007)|movie]] scene to act in small, low-budget films such as ''[[Sam Witwicky|Virgin High]]''. Andrusi admitted in an interview that playing Robin ''"killed my career."'' Andrusi also claims that he turned down the [[Chip Chase|Dustin Hoffman]] part in ''[[Carly|The Graduate]]'', because he decided to renew his ''Andrusi'' contract. Ever since, Andrusi has deeply regretted to turning down the role of Benjamin Braddock, as he was typecast and Hoffman went on to be one of Hollywood's greatest actors. He did, however, appear in numerous reunions with co-star [[Prowl (Animated)|Adam West]]. The most memorable reunions included Andrusi and West reprising their roles as Batman and Robin on a short-lived animated television series called ''[[Classics (2006)|The New Adventures of Batman]]'' and the [[OTFCC 2003|2003]] television movie ''[[The Transformers: The Movie|Return to the Batcave: The Misadventures of Adam and Andrusi]]''.

==Autobiography==
Andrusi also wrote a tell-all autobiography called ''[[Transformers Legends (book)|Boy Wonder: My Life in Tights]]'' (ISBN 0-9647048-0-3), which described his life while he was playing Robin. In [[Robots in Disguise (franchise)|2001]], Andrusi began [[TakaraTomy|Boy Wonder Visual Effects, Inc.]]

==Recent work==
Currently, in addition to managing the aforementioned corporation, Andrusi is married to [[Wikipedia: Futari wa Pretty Cure|Honoka Yukishiro Geable]], has two [[Arcee (Energon)|daughter]]s, and runs a [[Pat Lee|charity]] that sells [[Smokescreen (Armada)|Great Dane]]s and other dogs. It has been discussed in publications including [[Human|People]], [[Optimus Prime (G1)|ASPCA Animal Watch]], [[Red Alert (Armada)|Pet Life]], [[Earth|Dog World]], etc. It has been seen on TV shows including ''[[As the Kitchen Sinks|Visiting with Huell Howser]]'', ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: Victory (cartoon)|1-800 Save A Pet]]'', ''[[Beast Wars (cartoon)|Adoption Tales]]'', ''[[Star Wars|Pet Story]]'', ''[[Spider-Man|Amazing Tales]]'', ''[[Captain America|Super Heroes; Where Are They Now?]]'', [[Silverbolt (Fuzor)|Woof! It's a Dog's Life]], ''[[Bridget|Hard Copy]]'', ''[[Rook (Universe)|Inside Edition]]'', and ''[[Flashbox|Entertainment Tonight]]''. Andrusi and Honoka have previously sued a newspaper and several individuals for defamation over criticism of their dog rescue operation. Both suits were dismissed under the California Anti-[[Moon (moon)|SLAPP]] law.

==Trivia==
*Andrusi (a.k.a. Amplitude Geable Jr.) decided upon his professional surname by using his mother's [[Overcharge (G1)|maiden name]]. He substituted the ''e'' with the ''u'' in his first name to add more of a "punch." Andrusi's reasoning behind the name change was that he was afraid that people would have a hard time pronouncing ''''Geable'''' (which is pronounced with a hard-"G"). Adam West recounts a slightly different reasoning in his autobiography ''Back to the Batcave'', that Amplitude was changed to Andrusi to make the name more 'rugged' a la [[Stakeout (G1)|Andrusi Lancaster]], and an additional reason for Andrusi being the fact that Dick Grayson/Robin was Bruce Wayne's/Batman's [[Targetmaster (technology)|drusi]] in a play on words.
*At the height of the ''[[Cybertron (cartoon)|Batman]]'' popularity, Andrusi recorded a series of tracks under the production of [["Weird Al" Yankovic|Frank Zappa]]. The first two, "Boy Wonder, I Love You" (which Zappa wrote) and "Orange Colored Sky" were released as a single on [[Marco|November 14]], [[Thrust (Attacktix)|1966]]. Two other tracks from these sessions, "Teenage Bill of Rights" and "Autumn Love," remained unreleased.
*The reason there was no [[Landquake (Timelines)|remolded head]] is because of financial spill-over.
*Andrusi has removed his stupid post-Bookworm Wikia credit because it bothered him.

'''The Wreckers have one last chance to stop Mayhem from pulling off their most ambitious scheme yet—but will this mission herald the end of the team, or a new beginning?'''

==Synopsis==
Despite the recent attack on the [[Speedia|Speedia 500]], the mood on [[Velocitron]] is jubilant as Transformers from all across the planet crowd the [[Senate]] building to get a glimpse of [[Knock Out (G1)|Knock Out]]'s swearing-in as the planet's new First Senator... a crowd that includes [[Thunder Clash|Thunderclash]] and the [[Wreckers]], who've gone undercover to keep an eye on the ceremony. Certain that their [[Mayhem Attack Squad|Mayhem]] foes will attempt something, he's posted the other members of his team to monitor every possible access point to the building...and so caught up is he in his private doubts that he's taken by surprise when [[Leadfoot (G2)|Leadfoot]] claps him on the back and congratulates him for running a good race. Already on edge, Thunderclash hastily excuses himself, then hurries over to meet the rest of his team as they enter with the other Speedia racers to watch the ceremony. As it turns out, the other Wreckers have been debating what they'll do next: although [[Aileron]]'s certain that Mayhem will try to disrupt the ceremony, [[Hot Shot (G1)|Hot Shot]] and [[Ricochet (Headmasters)|Ricochet]] remain unsure. More pressingly, however, Aileron wonders if they've pushed their luck too hard on this one: after multiple racers saw them in action during the Speedia debacle, their usual travelling performer cover story will be difficult to maintain. Perhaps, she suggests, it's time to step down... but before the other Wreckers can interject, [[Xaaron]] steps up to the podium to begin the ceremony.

Knock Out takes the stage amidst general applause and begins his acceptance speech: while he begins by roundly denouncing Mayhem and their recent attack on the Speedia, he admits that their anger at the system is not misplaced. For too long, the people of Velocitron have put speed and showmanship over sound systems of governance... and the [[Decepticon|Ascenticon]] party will change that for good. But, as Knock Out continues his speech, [[Minerva (G1 robot)|Minerva]] glimpses a Mayhem agent in the crowd: as [[Submarauder (G1)|Submarauder]] sneaks up to the balconies, Minerva gives chase, quietly radioing for the other Wreckers for backup as she goes... but as Knock Out launches into the climax of his speech, Submarauder takes aim. Minerva pounces on her foe and tries to wrestle the gun away—and, amidst the struggle, the gun goes off and harpoons Knock Out squarely in the chest.

Terror sweeps the building as the First Senator collapses, and Submarauder shoves the gun into Minerva's arms before he bolts for the nearest doorway. Security forces pile into the building and order Submarauder to freeze, unaware that the ''real'' Submarauder has already abandoned his outer shell and rigged it to blow. The ensuing explosion sends Minerva flying and kills the security 'bots who might've otherwise secured the building; while [[Breakdown (IDW)|Breakdown]] gets the high-ranking dignitaries to cover, panicked [[frog civilian|civilians]] find that the doors have sealed shut and won't open. Thinking quickly, Thunderclash body-slams the nearest door open, only for the hulking [[Skullgrin]] to catch him in a flying tackle. As Ricochet and Hot Shot force a second door open, [[Thunderblast (G1)|Thunderblast]] and [[Slugslinger (G1)|Slugslinger]] blast their way into the building... but Leadfoot shouts for his fellow racers to follow his lead, and their improvised charge gives the two dazed Wreckers the crucial seconds they need to regain their bearings. Aileron tries moving Knock Out—although [[Octopunch (G1)|Octopunch]] claws his way up through the floor to ambush her, the flying Autobot quickly dispatches him with a concealed blaster she'd smuggled into the ceremony. Bit by bit, the tide turns in favour of the Wreckers: Thunderclash successfully piledrives Skullgrin into the floor, Hot Shot and Ricochet switch foes and double-team their opponents, and by the time that security makes it into the building, the Wreckers have already rounded up and incapacitated every member of Mayhem. It seems as though the Wreckers have successfully saved the day... but as Aileron helps the wounded Knock Out to his feet, Breakdown unexpectedly rounds on the group: members of Velocitronian security found Minerva, alone, at the site of the explosion, holding the attempted murder weapon. A disgraced Minerva is led away by members of Velocitronian security... a team of officers who ''also'' happen to be Mayhem operatives who've discarded their outer shells.

Some time later, the remaining Wreckers lift off from Velocitron; aboard the ''[[Stuntmaster]]'', Thunderclash is confident that Knock Out will put in a good word for Minerva and hopefully expedite her release. A conscious but still-wounded [[Circuit (G1)|Circuit]] announces they're live, and so Thunderclash and the other three Wreckers begin their latest broadcast to their adoring fans. This will be their ''final'' broadacast for the time being; after the Speedia, Thunderclash announces that they're stepping down for now, and the team sign off with one last "wreck and rule". Circuit has just enough energy to complete the recording and broadcast it across the galaxy... then, finally, succumbs to his injuries and dies. The Velocitron fiasco has now cost the team ''two'' Wreckers and the ability to hide behind their usual cover story—with no clear path forward, Hot Shot wonders if this marks the end of the Wreckers. Optimistic to the end, Thunderclash insists that they can't just give up, and points to Knock Out's recent speech indicating trouble on [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. ''That's'' where they need to be, now... but Aileron informs him that the entire [[space bridge|spacebridge]] network has gone dark, effectively stranding them millions of lightyears away from their home. Fortunately, Thunderclash has a different idea—even if the crew of the ''Stuntmaster'' can't get home, they ''do'' possess a top-of-the-line communications system. Already, Thunderclash has put out the call to some of the most trustworthy 'bots he knows—inspired by Leadfoot's recent example on Velocitron, why not, he asks, recruit some ''new'' Wreckers?

On Velocitron, some time later, a shackled Minerva has realized the horrible truth about everything that has transpired: Knock Out and the Ascenticons—now the ''Decept''icons—masterminded the entire Mayhem affair, all part of a plot to eliminate the competition and put one of [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]]'s loyalists in power. Flanked by the former members of "Mayhem", now sporting their new Decepticon [[insignia]]s, [[Skyquake (G1)|Skyquake]] sentences her to indefinite stasis; as his guards haul her away, Knock Out reclines in his new throne and smirks: "long live Knock Out..."

==Notes==
===Continuity notes===
* In his speech before the Velocitronian Senate, Knock Out mentions the fall of the [[Tether]] on Cybertron, which occurred in ''[[Transformers (2019 comic)|Transformers]]'' [[The Change In Your Nature Part Five|issue #17]]. Subsequent issues—most notably [[Arcee/Greenlight: Run|issue #18]], [[Light/Star|the 2021 annual]], and a few issues of ''[[Transformers: Galaxies|Galaxies]]'', implied that the disaster took out Cybertron's entire [[space bridge|spacebridge]] network and rendered faster-than-light travel impossible; the penultimate scene of this comic seemingly confirms this, as Aileron mentions that without a functioning spacebridge it would take a megacycle for them to get back to Cybertron.
* After shooting Knock Out, Submarauder abandons his [[Pretender|outer armor]] and slips away, using his smaller robot form to blend into the crowd: he employed a variation of this strategy in [[Tread & Circuits Part 3|the previous issue]] to escape Security Operations after they tried to arrest him. Presumably he had a backup shell offscreen?
* The final scene of the comic, which features Knock Out, his entourage, and the former members of Mayhem all wearing Decepticon badges and openly hailing the movement, must be set at some point after the events of [[Rise of the Decepticons: We Have Deceived You|issue #23]], in which Megatron formally renamed his faction "the Decepticons" and overthrew the Cybertronian [[Senate]]—like a few other recent side stories, a safe bet would be that it takes place at some point during the forty-cycle timeskip between issues [[War World: We Are Not Meant To Be Darkness|#30]] and [[Lord of Misrule: Test Flight I|#31]].
* [[Ruckus (G1)|Ruckus]] appears on Thunderclash's list of prospective Wrecker recruits; however, he joined the Ascenticons sometime before [[The World In Your Eyes Part One|''Transformers'' #1]], later fell in with the underground terrorist cell known as [[The Rise]], and was rendered comatose by an explosion until a recently-revived [[Exarchon]] stole his body in [[Lord of Misrule: Enigmatic|''Transformers'' #36]]. If the Wreckers' selection therefore seems out-of-date, they mention in the same scene they've been "out here" among the colonies for nearly two megacycles (2,000 years) or basically ever since the [[War of the Threefold Spark]].
* After she's imprisoned, Minerva angrily calls Knock Out a "mechanic-maniac" in reference to their video game face-off in [[Tread & Circuits Part 2|issue #2]].

===Transformers references===
* Video screens and friezes inside the Velocitronian Senate prominently feature the red lightning-bolt symbol used in the ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (cartoon)|Cybertron]]'' cartoon to represent the planet, which featured prominently on Velocitron's [[Cyber Planet Key]]s.
* In his inauguration speech, Knock Out announces that his reign heralds the beginning of a "bold new era" for the planet—"A Bold New Era" was the tagline originally used to advertise the first year of IDW's ''Transformers'' reboot, and ran up until [[Arcee/Greenlight: Run|issue #18]]. He also refers to "chaos on Velocitron," which was the name of a [[Titans Return (toyline)#Store exclusives|boxed set]] from the ''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' toyline.
* As he grapples with Skullgrin, Thunderclash announces that he's got "better things to do than die", copping [[Springer (G1)|Springer's]] line from the first act of ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]''.
* A Velocitronian bystander on page twelve is drawn to resemble ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' [[Spittor (BW)|Spittor]].
* Two more [[generic]]s in the crowd attending Knock Out's speech are drawn as car-fied versions of Lawrence's ''[[The Transformers: Lost Light|Lost Light]]'' creations [[Anode]] and [[Lug (IDW)|Lug]] (not to be confused with the real deals already accounted for on Cybertron).
* Thunderclash kicks off their final broadcast by using the famous [[universal greeting]] from the animated film: "bah-weep-graaaaagnah wheep ni ni bong."
* The list of potential Wrecker recruits features a ''huge'' variety of characters: these include characters who've appeared as Wreckers in other continuities, characters who've crossed paths or been associated with the team in varying capacities, and a few new faces thrown in for spice. Most prominently, the team features most of the classic Wreckers from "[[Target: 2006]]": [[Impactor (G1)|Impactor]], [[Topspin (G1)|Topspin]], [[Springer (G1)|Springer]], [[Whirl (G1)|Whirl]], and [[Rack'n'Ruin (G1)|Rack'n'Ruin]], although those last two are drawn to resemble their [[Whirl (Cyberverse)|''Cyberverse'']] [[Rack'n'Ruin (Cyberverse)|counterparts]]. IDW-original Wreckers include Leadfoot, who joined the team in ''[[The Transformers: Regeneration One|Regeneration One]]'', and noted Wreckers fanboy [[Ironfist (G1)|Ironfist]] from ''[[The Transformers: Last Stand of the Wreckers|Last Stand of the Wreckers]]''. [[Bulkhead (G1)|Bulkhead]] and [[Moonracer (G1)|Moonracer]] were both Wreckers in the [[Aligned continuity family]], while ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' promotional material identified [[Smashdown]] as the team's mascot. Non-Wreckers in the mix include [[Carnivac (G1)|Carnivac]] and [[Ruckus (G1)|Ruckus]], who were both members of the original [[Mayhem Attack Squad]], [[Star Saber (G1)|Star Saber]], who briefly crossed paths with the team in IDW's ''[[Transformers '84: Secrets & Lies|Secrets & Lies]]'' miniseries, a ''[[Transformers: Cyberverse (franchise)|Cyberverse]]''-inspired [[Lockdown (G1)|Lockdown]], [[Goshooter]], and finally, IDW's original character [[Stardrive]], who's never joined the Wreckers but ''did'' work with [[Prowl (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Prowl]]'s rogue unit in the pages of ''[[Optimus Prime (comic)|Optimus Prime]]'' and ''[[Transformers: Unicron|Unicron]]'', so maybe that's what they're riffing off of. Moonracer, Impactor, and Bulkhead are based on their ''[[Power of the Primes (toyline)|Power of the Primes]]'', ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'', and ''[[Transformers: Legacy|Legacy]]'' toys, respectively.

===Errors===
* On panel five of page two, Breakdown and Skyquake accidentally switch color schemes: Breakdown is green and Skyquake is blue.
* As Thunderclash explains his previous combat experience, the "Threefold Spark" is erroneously hyphenated as "Three-Fold".
* In [[Tread & Circuits Part 1|issue #1]], Octopunch showed a hologram of Velocitron that depicted it as Earth-like, with green continents and liquid oceans. As the Wreckers leave the planet in this issue, however, it's instead shown to be a metallic, Cybertron-like world.

:''Polar Claw is a [[Maximal]] from the [[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]] portion of the [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:BWPolarClawJapan.jpg|upright=1.6|thumb|He'll steal your purse and your pic-a-nic basket.]]
Ferocity and frenzy are what '''Polar Claw''' possesses in abundance. Many a foe have sampled his righteous ire. But when it comes to his comrades and subordinates, his sense of fair play is legendary. He believes in a disciplined, principled army of peacekeepers and strives to make sure the Maximal military remains as such. Polar Claw is very protective of the peace granted by the [[Pax Cybertronia]], and has no qualms about handling any upstart [[Predacon (BW)|Predacons]] with extreme prejudice.

He is partnered with a robotic bat drone called [[Batscout]], which aids in tracking and surveillance operations.

[[File:Terminus-PolarClaw.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.66|Hey, do I go up and touch ''your'' face?]]
During the final battle with [[Shokaract]], several realities converged into a single, apocalyptic timestorm. Beast Warriors from alternate realities emerged, including [[Cybershark]], [[B'Boom]], [[Drill Bit (BW)|Drill Bit]], [[Transquito]], [[Air Hammer (BW)|Air Hammer]], Polar Claw, and unidentified others, though all of them were summarily defeated. {{storylink|Terminus (issue)|Terminus}}
{{-}}

===Dreamwave ''Generation One'' continuity===
{{BW Shell Game}}
After the Maximals left prehistoric Earth at the end of the Beast Wars, Magmatron travelled to the organic world to activate all protoforms that had been left behind, planning to turn them into Predacons in the process. Polar Claw was among the protoforms activated to this end, but was not reprogrammed into a Predacon thanks to Razorbeast's interference. {{storylink|Shell Game issue 1|Shell Game #1}}

[[File:BWTheGathering1 PolarClaw Spittor.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|He hasn't gotten along well with the other Transformers since the Oscars.]]

Polar Claw was a drill sergeant at the [[Maximal Military Academy]]. {{storylink|Transformers: Beast Wars Sourcebook|Beast Wars Sourcebook #3}}

Polar Claw was one of the [[protoform]] [[stasis pod]]s jettisoned from the Maximal survey vessel ''[[Axalon (BW)|Axalon]]'' when it was forced to crash-land on prehistoric [[Earth]]. The [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]] general [[Magmatron]] led a small group (that included the Maximal agent [[Razorbeast]]) back in time to place these protoforms into [[chronal phase]] and reprogram them into Predacons, and lead this army against the Maximals in the present. However, Razorbeast placed a viral code in Magmatron's Predacon [[shell program]], allowing a number of the protoforms to retain their Maximal identity. It was [[Spittor (BW)|Spittor]] who was unfortunate enough to witness Polar Claw's activation. The giant [[polar bear]] summarily squashed Spittor. {{storylink|The Gathering issue 1|The Gathering #1}}

Polar Claw worked his way toward Razorbeast's summoning signal, {{storylink|The Gathering issue 2|The Gathering #2}} and eventually arrived in time with reinforcements to help fight off an army of Predacons commanded by the revanant [[Ravage (G1)|Ravage]]. In the subsequent battle, Polar Claw stomped on [[Terragator]]. {{storylink|The Gathering issue 4|The Gathering #4}}

Sometime later, when Ravage's Predacons hit the Maximals again, Polar Claw was among the ground forces defending their base. {{storylink|The Ascending issue 1|The Ascending #1}} He struggled against [[Powerpinch]] and [[Drill Bit (BW)|Drill Bit]] until the arrival of the [[Pack]], [[Lio Convoy]]'s secret special forces unit. Unfortunately, the [[Unicron]] agent [[Latolata|Rartorata]] followed injecting Razorbeast with [[Angolmois Energy|Angolmois]], forcing the Maximals and Predacons to band together to fight their mutual foe and prevent Unicron's return to [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. {{storylink|The Ascending issue 2|The Ascending #2}} Polar Claw chafed at having to watch the battle from the ground, thirsting for his turn at the enemy. After Rartorata was temporarily brought down, he reported the situation to Lio Convoy, considering the fact that [[Transquito]] had to inject his full reserve of [[nacro-virus]] to bring down the [[Blentron|Blendtron]] be poetic justice considering what Rartorata did to Razorbeast. However, the Unicron servant's allies [[Drancron]] and [[Elphaorpha|Elephorca]] followed, forcing those Maximals and Predacons in fighting condition (of which Polar Claw was among) to escape to The Pack's transwarp cruiser while Razorbeast and those left behind held them off. {{storylink|The Ascending issue 3|The Ascending #3}}

During the battle on Cybertron against [[Shokaract]], Unicron's acolytes attacked the Maximals, hitting Polar Claw and [[Drill Nuts]]. It is unknown if they were among the survivors after Shokaract was defeated. {{storylink|The Ascending issue 4|The Ascending #4}}
{{--}}

===''Beast Wars: Uprising''===
Polar Claw was a member of the [[Maximal Command Security Force]], a corrupt cop in a corrupt system. He and his partner [[Snarl (BM)|Snarl]] enjoyed busting Maximals for minor infractions in order to collect energon fines and flaunt their power. While accosting [[Noctorro]] for staring at his reflection too long (seriously), the MCSF officers were confronted by [[Lio Convoy]]. Recently having had his eyes opened about the injustices of his society, Lio Convoy had been wandering in search of a fight, and he started one with Polar Claw and Snarl, utterly humiliating them in combat while Noctorro fled to safety. {{storylink|Broken Windshields}}

===2005 IDW continuity===
[[File:sotw1 stakeout kicks a bear.jpg|left|upright=1.6|thumb|''The Revenant'' was a lot different in its first draft.]]

Polar Claw became part of a secret society known as [[Mayhem Attack Squad|Mayhem]] after the war, using advanced [[Chimeracon]] upgrades to disguise themselves on Earth. Their agenda was to take out the "ruling class" of both factions and they started with Prowl, plotting to expose all his dirty deeds. {{storylink|Sins of the Wreckers issue 2|Sins of the Wreckers #2}} Polar Claw struck the first blow by tracking [[Verity Carlo]] and attempting to seize the [[Aequitas]] file from her, but [[Stakeout (G1)|Stakeout]] drove off the "polar bear". {{storylink|Sins of the Wreckers issue 1|Sins of the Wreckers #1}} In their second go-round, Polar Claw was the first Mayhem to transform when he tried to slow down [[Impactor (G1)|Impactor]] and [[Guzzle (G1)|Guzzle]].

That went ''poorly'' for him: he was beaten, [[Carnivac (G1)|Carnivac]] abandoned him as "already dead" rather than parlay, and Guzzle ripped him in half to drink his energon. Er, the cause still lives? {{storylink|Sins of the Wreckers issue 2|Sins of the Wreckers #2}}

===2021 ''Beast Wars'' comic===
[[File:PrimalRage-PolarClaw.jpg|thumb|right|200px]]

The protoform that would become Polar Claw was contained in one of the many [[stasis pod]]s on the [[Axalon (BW)|''Axalon'']] that were ejected when the ship was caught in a battle with the [[Darksyde (BW)|''Darksyde'']] and left in orbit above the planet they crashed on. {{storylink|Savage Landing Part 1}} The pod was soon brought down to the surface due to sabotage carried out by [[Blackarachnia (BW)|Blackarachnia]]. {{storylink|Pod Part 2}} Before he could activate, Polar Claw was discovered by the [[Vok]] who, using knowledge gleamed from [[Cheetor (BW)|Cheetor]], reprogrammed him to serve their interests.

Part of the "[[Children of the Vok (group)|Children of the Vok]]", {{storylink|Children of the Vok}} Polar Claw was sent out to capture [[Optimus Primal (BW)|Optimus Primal]], easily overpowering the rage-induced Maximal leader while [[Saberback]] detained Megatron. {{storylink|Primal Rage}}

When the two leaders awoke, the Children explained that the Vok sought to be rid of the Cybertronians until their experiments on the planet were complete and Polar Claw suggested that both crews should leave outright. When Primal and Megatron escaped their cells thanks to their [[beast mode]]s, the Children attacked again. In beast mode, Polar Claw charged Megatron, only to be grabbed in the dinosaur's jaws. Despite the Child's request to be released for a more honorable battle, Megatron simply blew a hole through Polar Claw, killing him and then Saberback not long after. Unwilling to lose more of their subjects, [[Pakak]] possessed Polar Claw's corpse to speak to Megatron, only for the Predacon to blast the avatar, which prompted the Vok to show their true forms. {{storylink|Children of the Vok}}

==Notes==
[[File:BW-MegaPromo.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|Collect all the nonexistent toys!]]
* The [[Grizzly-1|Barbearian]] toy was actually the "prototype" deco for Polar Claw. The first solicitations for the ''Beast Wars'' Megas featured the bear mold brown and yellow (as well as a differently-colored [[Scorponok (BW)#Notes|Scorponok]]). The back of the first ''Beast Wars'' catalogue from the [[Optimus Primal (BW)/toys|Optimus Primal]]/[[Megatron (BW)/toys|Megatron]] two-pack called him "Grizzly-1", while solicitations sent to magazines used "Barbearian". The reasons for the changeover to a polar bear are unknown.
* [[Simon Furman]] has a [[Earthforce#Notes|noted love of polar bears]], which is probably why Polar Claw got the most panel time (by far) out of all of the dimension-displaced Beast Warriors in "[[Terminus (issue)|Terminus]]". Furman's affection for the creatures might also explain why, when Polar Claw appeared in IDW's 2021 [[Transformers: Beast Wars|''Beast Wars'' comic]], he picked up the speech patterns of Furman's original character [[Death's Head (G1)|Death's Head]], yes?
* Polar Claw appeared in a [[:File:PulseCon-Kingdom-promo-art.jpg|concept poster]] for ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom]]'', but ultimately no such toy appeared in the final toyline. One assumes a lack of television series nostalgia resulted in a slot for an expensive new mold being cut from planning.

Prowl 2

Andrusi: /* Notes */ toys don't receive bodies

{{factions|autobot}}
{{disambig3|Prowl}}
:''Prowl 2 is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Car Robots]] portion of the [[Generation 1 continuity family|Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[File:RID-toy Prowl2.jpg|upright=1.67|thumb|I am no one. And everyone.]]
'''Prowl 2''' was born out of the [[Binaltech Project]] as a backup attempt to save [[Prowl (G1)|Prowl]] from death, and eventually given life to prepare the [[Dimensional Patrol]] for life in the distant past.

==Fiction==
===Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity===
Prowl 2's origin traces back to the temporal nexus that was the [[Binaltech Project]]. Circa [[2010]], the [[Prowl (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Prowl]] and [[Wheeljack (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Wheeljack]] of the [[BT World]] traveled to the [[G1 World|OG World]] to collect some medical supplies, but became stranded there when the [[Quintesson]]s placed a [[quadrant lock]] on their home dimension's Earth. Having been somewhat wary after the death of their OG World doppelgängers, Wheeljack had brought along Prowl's Beta BT unit, an unused electric blue-colored BT backup, which, as with the primary unit, was programmed with Prowl's memory engrams and personality. When the duo transferred their sparks to OG World bodies, both of Prowl's BT units went into storage.

Hundreds of centuries later, the Beta BT unit was rediscovered in the era of the [[Convoy Council]] when [[Optimus Prime (RID)|Fire Convoy]] was preparing to pursue the [[Predacon (BW)|Destrongers]] to the year [[2000]]. Since the memories contained within the Beta BT unit were of crucial importance to the Autobots, the body was rebuilt using [[Spy Changer]] technology and infused with life by [[Vector Sigma]]; thus was Prowl 2 born. He taught the [[Dimensional Patrol]] much about life on late 20th century [[Earth]], and although he volunteered to join Fire Convoy's team, [[Heinrad (BW)|Heinrad]] considered the danger of temporal paradoxes too acute. Prowl 2 remained in the future, apprehensively awaiting word from his comrades about their mission to Earth. {{storylink|Ask Vector Prime#Facebook|Ask Vector Prime, 2015/09/10}}

He has through-axle construction to allow for super-fast rolling in car mode. Like his fellow "new"-mold teammates, his rifle stores under his car mode. He was available in a two-pack with [[Side Swipe (RID)#Toys|Side Swipe]].

: This mold was used to make the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 toyline)|2003 ''Universe'']] version of Generation 1 [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Universe (2003)|Prowl]] as well as the 2003 ''Universe'' version of ''Robots in Disguise'' [[Prowl (RID)#WMSC|Prowl]].

The second version, known as "Vivid Blue Pearl", is a civilian version with no police lights, a mostly blue interior, a Honda logo (instead of the cherry blossom emblem) on the grill, and a solid blue car-shell. His robot mode parts remained mostly the same color, however.

:This mold (the Japanese blue Prowl variant, combined with parts from American police Prowl) was used to make ''Alternators'' [[Camshaft (G1)#Alternators|Camshaft]].

::*''[http://www.tfu.info/2005/Cybertron/BTProwl/prowl.htm More information on ''Binaltech'' Prowl Vivid Blue Pearl Edition at TFU.info]''

==Notes==
* For years, Prowl 2 only existed as a toy in the 2001 ''Robots in Disguise'' toyline with no [[bio]] or story appearances to explain who he was, an enigma for the fandom. Among the contradictory facts and evidence:
** [[Optimus Prime (RID)|Other]] [[Ultra Magnus (RID)|characters]] [[X-Brawn|received]] [[Scourge (RID)|Spychanger]] [[Side Burn (RID)|bodies]] without the anomalous "2" suffix.
** Further complicating things, the "Super" redecoes of the Deluxe RID Car Brothers were listed in store computers with the numeral "2" following their names for a time. The "Prowl 2" Spy Changer's deco is not dissimilar to the redeco of Deluxe Prowl, and one interpretation was that it was intended as a Spy Changer version of that toy.
** This might have remained simply an odd footnote in ''Transformers'' lore, but then the [[Transformers: Alternators|''Binaltech'' fiction]] used the name "Prowl 2" for its own incarnation of [[Prowl (G1)|Prowl]] (who would, in a later [[retcon]], be rolled into a ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'' character as "[[Prowl (TM2)|Prowl II]]").
** Some fans passed the ''Binaltech'' reference off as merely a nod, since ''Binaltech'' takes place in a branch of the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original ''The Transformers'' cartoon]] timeline. However, the Generation 1 cartoon and ''Car Robots'' (the original Japanese version of ''Robots in Disguise'') are [[Japanese Generation 1 cartoon continuity|actually in the same universe]] according to [[Continuity#Unified Japanese continuities|Japanese continuity]]. On the other hand, Prowl 2 wasn't in ''Car Robots''; he was a U.S. addition. On the other ''other'' hand, ''Binaltech''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s writer, [[Hirofumi Ichikawa]], is famously knowledgeable of non-Japanese Transformers, and he even worked [[Mirage (RID)|another anomalous ''Robots in Disguise'' suffix]] into [[Genetronic Translink System|''Binaltech'' terminology]]. Moreover, even if the series are viewed as separate, ''Robots in Disguise'' is no stranger to [[Axer (G1)|dimension hoppers]].
** The upshot of it all was that, for years, no one could say who Prowl 2 ''really'' was with certainty.
*** That is, of course, until the Facebook edition of [[Ask Vector Prime]] rectified things in a post written with input by Ichikawa in [[2015]].

Vintage Horror Movie Series

2022-06-20T20:36:37Z

Andrusi:

[[File:DraculaTransformer01.jpg|thumb|upright=1.67|I never drink... ''energon''...]]

The '''Vintage Horror Movie Series''' (ビンテージホラー映画シリーズ ''Vintage Horror Eiga Series'') was a proposed subline to the [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1 toyline]] which never made it past the conceptualization phase (more specifically, the concept ''art'' phase).

The series would have seen several monsters from classic horror movies realized as transforming robots. Exactly what fiction, if any, might have originally been devised to ''explain'' why these monsters were suddenly turned into giant robots and how they might interact with the [[Autobot]]s and the [[Decepticon]]s is unknown. But Facebook came up with something 30 years later, so we're good.

Known monsters within the Vintage Horror Movie Series include:

*[[Dracula]]
*The [[Creature from the Black Lagoon]]
*The [[Fly]]

Sorry, no [[Frankenstein's monster]].

==Fiction==
===Ask Vector Prime===
When asked why Transformers based on classic movie monsters exist, [[Vector Prime]] replied that they were seen as fearsome and potent alternate forms. Evidently, they are actually the alternate forms of unknown Cybertronians, not the real monsters. {{storylink|Source:Ask Vector Prime/Facebook#June 10|Ask Vector Prime, 10 June 2015}}

==Toys==
Concept art of the toys was printed in the Deluxe edition of the guidebook ''[[Transformers Generations (guidebook)|Transformers Generations]]''.

Oddly, the legal feasibility of this proposed series is highly questionable. While the character of Count Dracula dwells within the public domain, the Creature from the Black Lagoon is owned by [[Universal|Universal Studios]], whereas the Fly is owned by 20th Century Fox. ''Generations'' identifies the toys as ''being'' these characters specifically, not parodies or approximations. Whether any actual attempts were made by [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] or [[Hasbro]] to obtain rights from the proper studios is unknown, though that fact may have contributed to the series' cancellation at the early concept art phase.

==Notes==

*Dracula would eventually get his own transforming robot toy in ''[[Transformers Collaborative]]'' in the form of [[Draculus]].

'''The sins of the past loom large as Rodimus finds himself the object of suspicion, while a new group of amoral Cybertronian survivors make planetfall.'''

==Synopsis==
In the desert night, [[Hot Rod (G1)|Rodimus]] finds more questions than answers as he examines the strange cylindrical vessel responsible for bringing the other Cybertronian to [[Donnokt]]: not only is the capsule's inner workings caked in a greasy, organic liquid that Rodimus can't readily identify, its lack of engines or kind of propulsion system suggests someone must've deliberately fired it from an external launcher... but who fired it, and ''why''? As he ponders out loud, a familiar voice catches his attention: [[Shib Wallkis]] has secretly followed Rodimus out into the desert. Before they passed away, she tells him, her parents warned her that if Rodimus would only ever wake up in an extreme emergency. However, answers don't come quickly to Rodimus who's spent so much time in a low-power standby mode that his return to the waking world has left him disoriented. When he looks to the stars, the sight leaves him even more confused: the stars in the sky aren't where they're supposed to be... and there ''aren't enough'': one by one, the starts in the sky are winking out. As another star disappears right in front of them, Shib asks if Rodimus knows anything about why the stars have been fading her whole life... and the old 'bot informs her that it's all because of him—him and the rest of the [[Transformer|Cybertronian]] race.

For untold eons, [[Autobot]]s and [[Decepticon]]s waged their endless war, a grinding, increasingly pointless conflict that swallowed planets, destroyed stars and drove countless sentient races into extinction until the Transformers became victims of their own longevity: when the universe ran out of resources to fight over and spare parts to repair themselves, the Cybertronians gradually dwindled away until only Rodimus remained, the very last Cybertronian of all—or so he thought. Shib reminds Rodimus, that, long ago, he made an agreement with her ancestors: if they kept ''him'' safe, then he'd keep ''them'' safe: her, her family, and maybe even the whole planet... but Rodimus asks if that deal applies to alderman [[Errold]] and his mob of angry citizens, who've pursued the pair across the barrens to apprehend Rodimus. Although Shib tries vouching for the exasperated Autobot, Erold points out that, by all accounts, ''Rodimus'' was the aggressor in the most recent scuffle between him and the other Cybertronian; after some back-and-forth, Rodimus makes a deal: if Shib walks free, then he'll come back to town with them and even allow them to tie him down if it makes them feel safe.

Elsewhere in the desert, outside the second, much larger cylinder, a small rabbit-like Cybertronian grumbles to himself as he completes his post-flight diagnostics, but his complaints only earn the ire of [[Steel Jaw|Steeljaw]] as the commander emerges from [[stasis lock|stasis]]. Once "Spine-Shucker", the newly christened "[[Moon (BW)|Moon]]" reports that all of their equipment and crew—as far as they know, the last dozen Transformers in the universe—have survived the trip intact, while Steeljaw's sister [[Sharpclaw]] announces that they've got a bead on [[Nitro (IDW)|Nitro]]'s landing site. While Moon reactivates and refuels [[Override (BWU)|Override]] and [[Riotgear (G1)|Riotgear]], Sharpclaw informs her brother that they've found a single Cybertronian lifesign moving away from his lander; for his part, Steeljaw waves off her concerns and assumes that the disoriented Nitro got himself lost. Near Nitro's landing sites, the two guards Errold posted to keep an eye son the vessel are confused by a cloud of dust on the horizon. Although they initially mistake the pair for some local steam cars, the terrifying sight of the two vehicles transforming into Override and Riotgear sends the two organics scrambling for cover, even if Riotgear gets stuck in mid-transformation and requires a kick from Override to complete his shift into [[robot mode]]. Override searches the capsule for any clues regarding Nitro's whereabouts, and a potential argument over who gets to ingest some of the leftover [[biofuel]] smeared on the instruments gets cut short when Riotgear, who prefers his "fuel" raw, finds and scoops up the two guards as they cower behind a nearby rock. Before he disposes of the organics, however, he demands to know what happened to the other Cybertronian, and interprets his frantic pointing as a clue...

At the Wallkis farmstead, with the guards posted outside her home asleep, Shib makes preparations for a rescue mission: after secretly donning one of the mysterious necklaces provided by her parents, then putting frightened brother [[Beets Wallkis|Beets]] at ease, she sneaks out of a nearby window and heads down the road into [[Fembrance]], where the townsfolk have taken Rodimus prisoner. By morning, a grouchy, underfuelled Rodimus reminds his captors that they've only captured him because he let them... but as Shib sneaks up to try and rescue her friend, the ground shakes as Override and Riotgear arrive! Impervious to the crude powder weapons wielded by the citizens of Fembrance, the pair follow the signal and stumble across Rodimus; overjoyed to find another member of their kind, the pair help him to his feet and carry him away in their [[alternate mode]]s, ignoring his protests all the while. Overcome with emotion, Riotgear tells Rodimus that this meeting must be a portent: after years of wandering the stars, they've finally found a new home.

Some time later, the three guards report to Errold, who's upset to learn that that the mechanical invaders have stolen their prisoner out from under them. Although the sheriff initially suggests they head up to the Wallkis farmstead for some answers, a breathless guard bursts in with alarming news: Shib's gone missing! A furious Errold promptly leaps to the conclusion that she must've colluded with the aliens to steal the treasures in their hills... a betrayal he won't stand for.

Only a few hours after planetfall, Steeljaw's remnant Cybertronians have turned the crash site into a hub of activity as they labour to unpack and construct a prefabricated biofuel distillery. When Sharpclaw reports three Cybertronian signatures on approach, Steeljaw initially assumes that they've found Nitro... but is intrigued by the sight of a ''new'' Transformer, even as Rodimus recoils in disgust from their touch. As the old Autobot squares up for a fight—but, as his tank runs dry, he finally gives out and collapses.

''With the war over, Rodimus's friends [[Strongarm (G1)|Strongarm]] and [[Gripper (G1)|Gripper]] debate their next move. Strongarm, certain that there must be other pockets of survivors out there in the universe, wants to take their ship, find their kin, and begin again... but Rodimus, certain that there can be no second chance for their species, insists that they stay on ''this'' world and defend it from any other Cybertronians who would do it harm. After a moment's thought, Strongarm agrees, while Gripper suggests they all go for a drive to take their minds off the problem.''

When Rodimus comes to, Steeljaw formally introduces himself and the rest of his "family"... and although Rodimus growls that he wants nothing to do with Decepticons, Steeljaw tells him that these old labels no longer apply—the Cybertronians who follow him have long ago forgotten their original factions, to the point where none of them even recognize Rodimus when he introduces himself. When Rodimus warns the group that there's no [[energon]] on Donnokt to plunder, Steeljaw reveals that there's no energon left ''anywhere''. In these straitened times, he and his followers have adapted by travelling from world to world, farming and processing organic resources into an alternative "biofuel" capable of sustaining Cybertronian life. Rodimus realizes that someone stole his cape while he was unconscious, and Steeljaw explains that, while tending to their new companion, they found a stowaway hidden inside his "unbefitting" garment, the first batch of biofuel they brew on this new world to commemorate their friendship. While Steeljaw orders Override and Riotgear to refit Rodimus with a new fuel intake, he and Moon prepare to process this "local delicacy"... Shib!

"Dying came easy to us. You were never mourned for long because someone nearly always found a way to '''bring you back'''. So you could pick up right where '''you left off'''. You can't bring a '''human''', or a '''Nebulan''', or a '''Klovian''' back to life. You can '''rebuild a Cybertronian''', but you can't '''resurrect a star.''' You can't '''remake a planet'''. And eventually, '''finally''', we did it. There were no '''more places left''' to battle over and to drain of resources. No one to put us back together again. Nothing to put us back together '''with'''. We could just '''end'''. Just like all those planets, all those places, all those... people."
:—'''Rodimus'''

"He ain't '''dangerous!'''" 
"No. He's right... I '''am''' dangerous. Of course I am. '''We always are'''. You need to remember that, Shib. Whatever else I end up forgetting, I need to remember that, too. Because if I '''don't''', that makes me even more of a threat."
:—'''Shib''' and '''Rodimus'''

"It is, of course, your right to be addressed as you wish, officer... Moon." 
'Thank you, Commander Steeljaw." 
"Just as it is my right, and that of the entire crew—which, lest you forget, makes up the '''remainder of your race'''—to be utterly, '''utterly''' embarrassed by your very existence."

==Notes==
===Continuity notes===
* When Nitro arrived outside Fembrance in [[Last Bot Standing issue 1|the previous issue]], a passerby noted that he'd "come from the stories." Errold's speech in this issue continues on this theme, and implies that, millennia after the end of the war, myths and legends of the destructive Cybertronians have persisted, even amongst cultures who arose long after the disappearance of the Autobots and Decepticons.
* The sign welcoming visitors to the town of [[Fembrance]] was destroyed last issue when Rodimus killed the "Visitor"—as per dialogue in this issue, we now know that his real name is "[[Nitro (IDW)|Nitro]]". It's not really clear what happened to Nitro's body, however; going by the ending of issue #1, Override and Riotgear ''should'' have stumbled on his headless corpse lying outside the village, but it's possible that the townsfolk were able to quickly dispose of his remains before sunrise.
* The third flashback in this issue seems to tie into the brief, one-page sequence in issue #1, which showed Rodimus, Strongarm, and Gripper piloting a vessel under attack from other Cybertronian starships. The first panel of this issue, combined with Rodimus's narration on page five, makes it clear that Strongarm and Gripper are both dead, but it's not yet clear if this is the result of a crash-landing or if this issue's flashback is set ''after'' the one in issue #1, and that something else destroyed them and their ship after they landed on Donnokt.

===Transformers references===
* Shib notes that, to the people of Donnokt, the relativistic phenomenon of the nighttime stars winking is known as "lost lights", and the aged Rodimus notes that the phrase feels familiar. The ''Lost Light'', was, of course, the starship that [[Hot Rod (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|one iteration of the character]] captained in IDW's popular ''[[The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye|More than Meets the Eye]]'' and ''[[The Transformers: Lost Light|Lost Light]]'' ongoings.
* Rodimus recounts that he was "[[Reproduction|forged]]" after the beginning of the Great War. Like most versions of the character, he claims to have originally gone by "Hot Rod", and briefly enjoyed a stint as "Rodimus ''Prime''".
* In his story, Rodimus muses that the Cybertronians treated [[death]] as something impermanent and reversible—a meta-reference to how many ''Transformers'' stories, most prominently the [[The Transformers (Marvel comic)|original Marvel comic]], would regularly kill off and resurrect characters, often as a way of "clearing out" old product to [[To sell toys|advertise new toys]].
* In the same conversation, Rodimus describes the Cybertronian war as "over, finished", a well-trodden [[Furmanism]]. In the third flashback, [[Gripper (G1)|Gripper]] drops another one when he sardonically asks Rodimus "who wants to live forever?"
* As per Rodimus, casualties of the Cybertronian war include [[human]]s, [[Nebulan]]s, and [[Klozian|Klovian]]s, pink aliens who originally appeared in the [[End of the Road! (US)|final issue]] of Marvel's ''The Transformers'' comic.
* The flashback on page five features a diverse array of characters from across the ''Transformers'' mythos. [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#PMOP|Powermaster]] [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]]'s leading the Autobots; notable faces in the crowd include ''[[Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers: The Battlestars (story page)|Battlestars]]'' big guy [[Grandus (G1)|Grandus]], ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'' [[Tigerhawk]], [[Thunder Clash|Thunderclash]], and G1 versions of ''[[Transformers: Prime (franchise)|Prime]]'' [[Bulkhead (Prime)|Bulkhead]] and ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Armada]]'' [[Red Alert (Armada)|Red Alert]]. On the Decepticon side of things, [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]]'s lesser-known allies include [[Flamewar (G1)|Flamewar]] as she appeared in IDW's [[Transformers (2019 comic)|2019 comic reboot]], ''[[Beast Machines: Transformers (franchise)|Beast Machines]]'' [[Strika (BM)|Strika]], the Pretender [[Snarler]], the bat-winged [[Megatron (RID)|Gigatron]], and a gold-and-white Decepticon based on the [[Noisemaze Mass Production Type Version]]s from ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (franchise)|Cybertron]]''. Finally, in the bottom right corner, there's [[Calcar]], a late-run European exclusive from the tail-end of the original "Generation 1" toyline.
* Spaceborne casualties on page five include the [[Ark (G1)|Ark]] or another ship of its model, and the ''[[Warworld]]'' as it appeared in Marvel's ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (Marvel)|Generation 2]]'' comics, complete with a Generation 2-style Decepticon [[insignia]].
* The central antagonist of our story is revealed to be [[Steel Jaw|Steeljaw]], a new version of the smooth-talking wolf-bot who debuted in 2015's ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015 cartoon)|Robots in Disguise]]'' franchise. Like ''Robots in Disguise'' Steeljaw, who aimed to become the next Decepticon leader after [[Megatron (WFC)|Megatron]]'s defeat, this iteration of the character has taken a group of Cybertronian stragglers under his wing and set himself up as their nominal commander. ''Unlike'' his cartoon self, however, this version of the character has a [[Relatives|sister]]: [[Sharpclaw]], an original character created by Nick Roche's daughter, who'd previously made a cameo in ''[[Transformers (2019 comic)|Transformers]]'' [[Rise of the Decepticons: Swindle's|issue #20]].
* In addition to Sharpclaw and Moon, other Cybertronian remnants who've joined up with Steeljaw include perennial [[Unicron Trilogy continuity family|Unicron Trilogy]] favourite [[Override (Cybertron)|Override]], ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 franchise)|Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Wedge (RID)|Wedge]], an original character named [[Vex]], and three of the five 'bots who formed [[Galvatronus (RID)|Galvatronus]] in the 2015 ''Robots in Disguise'' cartoon: [[Treadshock]], [[Riotgear]], and [[Cyberwarp]] (in her blue-and-yellow cartoon coloration). Although they don't appear in this issue, Steeljaw also namedrops the Japanese-original characters [[Lunaclub]] and [[Scylla]], and speaks of a character known only as "the Veteran": while this ''was'' the name a grizzled future [[Swoop (G1)|Swoop]] went by in [[3H Productions|3H]]'s ''[[Transformers: Universe (comic)|Universe]]'' comic, the preview for issue #3, combined with a few bits of dialogue in this issue, suggests that it's actually a new moniker for a post-apocalyptic [[Wheelie (G1)|Wheelie]].
* Without sufficient fuel or spare parts, Steeljaw notes that he and his men have had to "overwrite" old memories to stay functional, a new version of the "[[information creep]]" concept from ''More than Meets the Eye''. Although Steeljaw and his compatriots have forgotten many heroes and villains from the olden days—Optimus Prime, [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]], and Rodimus himself—they immediately remember [[Thunder Clash|Thunderclash]] when Rodimus drops his name, hearkening back to a running gag in ''More than Meets the Eye'' where the heroic Autobot continually one-upped Rodimus.
* Steeljaw's practice of distilling "biofuel" to survive in an energon-depleted universe resembles ''More than Meets the Eye'''s "[[pink alchemy]]", a similarly gruesome method of processing living beings into a viable energon substitute.

===Real-world references===
* Steeljaw's remnant Cybertronians travel from planet to planet using unguided, cylindrical projectiles; combined with their plan to round up the inhabitants of Donnokt and consume them, they evoke the antagonistic {{w|Martian (The War of the Worlds)|Martians}} from ''{{w|The War of the Worlds|The War of the Worlds}}''.
* Continuing the unexpected classic literature references, the imagery of a prone Rodimus lashed to the ground while surrounded by smaller beings evokes the iconic scene from ''{{w|Gulliver's Travels}}'' where the miniature citizens of {{w|Lilliput and Blefuscu|Lilliput}} capture Gulliver.

[[File:G1 RedAlert profileart1.jpg|upright=1.95|thumb|I am head of security around—WHAT WAS THAT!? OH, DEAR GOD, THEY'RE OUT TO GET ME!!]]
'''Red Alert''' is paranoid, which is not a bad trait in a [[Security Director]] if it's kept in check by reason, logic, and common sense. Red Alert is... not always so good with those other traits. The Autobots appreciate his discriminating eye for detail as well as his all-consuming dedication to safety, but his ratio of false alarms to real emergencies leaves something to be desired. And thanks to the "bot who cried wolf" effect, it makes them less likely to take Red Alert seriously when his sensors detect a genuine threat.

Red Alert is close friends with [[Inferno (G1)|Inferno]] despite their polarized personalities mixing about as well as oil and vinegar. Incidentally, both Autobots feel obligated to keep the other out of trouble and this concern melds them into a reasonably effective duo.

====Marvel UK ''The Transformers'' comics====
[[File:Redalertfromnowhere.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|What the—how did I get here?! Where am I?!]]
When the Autobot warrior [[Brawn (G1)|Brawn]] went on a temporarily mad rampage within the Ark, Red Alert attempted to restrain him. His efforts failed, and Brawn escape to menace the nearby town of [[St. Petersburg]]. The Autobots gave chase, and just when Brawn though he had defeated them all, Red leapt out in ambush to deck Brawn with one punch, and then vanished into the night as if he had never been there. {{storylink|The Enemy Within!}}

{{note|For some reason, Red Alert and Inferno were never given introductions along with the other [[Autobot Cars]] in the Marvel series, US or UK stories.

=====Marvel UK future timelines=====
[[File:RobinSmithLotsaCharacterModels.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.66|One of these guys is not like the others... one of these guys doesn't belong...]]
In [[2009]], Red Alert was one of the few Autobots available on Earth to help [[Kup (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Kup]] and [[Arcee (G1)|Arcee]] assault the new energy leech being constructed by the Decepticons. After destroying the work [[Soundwave (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Soundwave]] and the [[Terrorcon (G1)|Terrorcons]] had done, Red Alert and the others were immediately drafted by [[Hot Rod (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Rodimus Prime]] into leaping through the [[trans-time dimensional portal]] back to [[1989]]. It seemed the extended [[Time travel|time-jump]] of former Decepticon leader [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]] was causing heavy stress on the timestream at both ends. 20 years in the past, Red Alert and his future Autobots joined forces with several different factions of Autobots and Decepticons on Earth to confront the menace of Galvatron and the resultant time storm. Red Alert took some flak from Galvatron's [[particle cannon]] during the battle, but ultimately the [[time rift]] was abated when Galvatron himself was cast into its maw, and the timestream restabilized itself. Red Alert, Rodimus and the other future Autobots then returned to their own time. {{storylink|Time Wars}}

[[File:ShadowofEvil-RedAlert.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Look, I don't know why my spoiler is on my back either.]]
Or did they? Upon returning to 2009, Red Alert and his comrades found Galvatron already there waiting for them. It seemed their actions in the past had reconstructed the timeline to such a degree that their present was now radically changed—Galvatron and his Decepticons now ruled Cybertron. The Autobots tried to adjust to these new events and created a token resistance movement on Cybertron, but it was soon crushed and they were chased off their home planet and back to Autobot City on Earth. During the trip, Red Alert was serving as chief bridge officer of [[Future Autobot evacuation ship|their starship]] when the Autobots were assaulted with sabotage. {{storylink|The Void! (UK)|The Void!}} While Kup and a security team attempted to ferret out the traitor, Red Alert did his level best to keep the Autobots from crashing into Earth uncontrollably at sub-light speeds. Battered and bruised, most of the Autobots survived thanks to Arcee's efforts to reactivate the retro-rockets at the last minute. {{storylink|Edge of Impact}} They still had to face the saboteur, however: an insane Rodimus Prime, corrupted from within by the essence of [[Unicron/Generation 1|Unicron]] that he had unknowingly been carrying inside himself. On the ground, Red Alert joined Kup, Arcee, and the others in fighting their mad leader, {{storylink|Shadow of Evil}} but Kup advised the others against destroying Rodimus. Instead, Red Alert and the others were made to stand back as Kup managed to tackle down Rodimus, and rip the Matrix from his chest, severing Unicron's link to the Autobot commander. {{storylink|White Fire}}

Unfortunately, Jhiaxus was expecting this move and had Grimlock's troops surrounded. Red Alert attacked Jhiaxus anyhow, and was blown to pieces.

In [[2012]], alerted to [[Megatron (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Megatron]]'s devastation of planet Earth, Optimus Prime travelled there with a detachment of Autobots, including Red Alert. {{storylink|Loose Ends, Part 3}} They faced Megatron and his [[zombie]] troops to finally put an end to his tyranny. {{storylink|Loose Ends, Part 5}}

[[File:Wheeljack red alert smokescreen cosmos natural selection.jpg|thumb|upright=1.8]]
After Megatron and his [[zombie]] army had been defeated, Red Alert, [[Wheeljack (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Wheeljack]], [[Cosmos (G1)|Cosmos]] and [[Smokescreen (G1)|Smokescreen]] were given the unenviable task of clearing away the fallen zombies, tossing them into a huge pit in [[West Virginia]] to be vaporized from orbit. {{storylink|Natural Selection, Part One}} Returning to Cybertron aboard the ''[[Valiant (G1)|Valiant]]'', Red Alert and the other Autobots were unwittingly targeted by surface-to-air missiles from the [[Civil Defense Hub]] which had been overtaken by the Decepticon [[Clone (subgroup)|Clones]] [[Pounce]] and [[Wingspan]], under the command of the resurrected [[Scorponok (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Scorponok]]. {{storylink|Natural Selection, Part Four}} Though the missiles were called off at the last moment, the Autobots aboard the ''Valiant'' were now alerted to the threat and prepared for immediate deployment. {{storylink|Natural Selection, Part Five}}

[[File:Red alert kup natural selection.jpg|thumb|left]]
Not long afterwards, Red Alert provided security for [[Hot Rod (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Hot Rod]]'s speech at [[Eugenesis Plaza]] alongside [[Prowl (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Prowl]] and the [[Wrecker]]s. When the crowd—agitated up by [[Spinister (G1)|Neo-Decepticon]] [[Needlenose (G1)|agents]]—turned violent, he and [[Streetwise (G1)|Streetwise]] contained a breach in the security cordon while [[Kup (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Kup]] ushered their leader to safety. {{storylink|Destiny, Part One}} When [[Blaster (G1)|Blaster]] and the other former [[Nucleon (substance)|Nucleon]] victims defeated the [[Mayhem Attack Squad]], Red Alert led the Decepticon infiltrators away to custody. {{storylink|Destiny, Part Two}} Later, Prowl, Streetwise and Red Alert arrested the Decepticon "small fry" [[Runamuck (G1)|Runamuck]] {{storylink|Destiny, Part Three}}

Red Alert took part in Rodimus Prime's assault on the [[Hub (G2)|Hub Network]] and survived, returning to Cybertron to find it a barren wasteland populated only by [[shadow-leech]]es. Fighting through them to reach the [[Star Chamber]], the Autobots split into three teams—one to go to Earth, one to hold the line on Cybertron and the third, including Red Alert, to travel to the [[Clar Macro-jungle]] on [[Nebulos]]. There, they finally defeated the insane, [[Dark Matrix]]-possessed, time-displaced [[Galvatron II|Galvatron]] before coming under attack from the similarly Dark Matrix-possessed [[Fortress Maximus (G1)/Marvel Comics continuity|Fortress Maximus]]. Fortunately a combined team of Autobots and humans arrived from Earth to save the day.

While Earth and Nebulos thrived, Cybertron was cut off from [[Primus]], rendering all Transformers decidedly mortal. Like all the rest, Red Alert abandoned his homeworld to travel the galaxy until he eventually died. {{storylink|The War to End All Wars, Part 5}}

[[File:AutoBerserk RedAlert accusation.jpg|upright=1.1|thumb|There's someone out there, watching me...]]
The Autobots were testing the powerful [[Negavator]] superweapon they had built in cooperation with the [[United States military]] when the Decepticons attacked, intent on stealing the weapon. [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] ordered Red Alert and Inferno to stay inside and guard the bunker as the rest of the Autobots took the fight to the Decepticons. Inferno chafed to fight the Decepticons and left Red on his own despite the latter's pleas for him to stay. During the battle, Decepticon attacks caused the bunker to catch fire and become damaged (much to [[Grapple (G1)|Grapple]]'s dismay), knocking Red Alert on the head and burying him under rubble. Realizing what happened, Inferno and the other Autobots returned to rescue Red. Unfortunately, the blow to his head damaged Red's logic circuits, making him more paranoid than usual, and caused him to flee the other Autobots in fear that they would take him apart and use him for spare parts. He also became thoroughly convinced that his pal Inferno was after his job and so he escaped the Autobots. Red Alert's damage was such that if he was left untreated, his circuits would eventually explode, and so the Autobots immediately left to find him.

[[File:AutoBerserk Inferno RedAlert friendship.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb|Images like this, and yet Tracks gets all the innuendo.]]
Meanwhile, [[Starscream (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Starscream]] (who had been abandoned by the Decepticons on the battlefield by [[Megatron (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Megatron]]'s order) witnessed this happening. He decided to use Red's paranoia to his own advantage by pretending to form a partnership with the Autobot, feeding his paranoid state, encouraging him to steal the Negavator and use it to destroy both the Autobots and Decepticons. With Red Alert's knowledge, the pair infiltrated the bunker and stole the Negavator, just in time for Megatron to seize the weapon and for Starscream to reveal his true cowardly ways. Fortunately, Inferno saved Red Alert from himself and his Decepticon 'allies'. {{storylink|Auto Berserk}}

After Megatron managed to frame the Autobots, the entire Autobot contingent, including Red Alert, were banished from Earth on a rocket supplied by [[Shawn Berger]]. {{storylink|Megatron's Master Plan, Part 1}} The ship was locked on course for the [[Sun]], but the Autobots managed to get clear and return to Earth with the help of [[Cosmos (G1)|Cosmos]] and [[Trailbreaker (G1)|Trailbreaker]]'s force field. There they confronted and defeated the Decepticons, who had already been exposed. {{storylink|Megatron's Master Plan, Part 2}} Red Alert was on the squad that intercepted the Decepticons at a power plant, however during the fight, it became apparent that both sides were suffering strange malfunctions. The Autobots returned to base, where [[Perceptor (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Perceptor]] worked out they were all suffering from [[Cybertonium]] depletion. {{storylink|Desertion of the Dinobots, Part 1}} [[Spike Witwicky (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Spike]], [[Carly]], and the Dinobots managed to get more Cybertonium from Cybertron, and the Autobots were all repaired. {{storylink|Desertion of the Dinobots, Part 2}}

[[File:BlasterBlues Red Alert Inferno on the road.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|Why does that fire engine keep following me?!]]
When Megatron used the [[Voltronic Galaxer]] to block Earth's radio transmissions, the survivors of a train crash were unable to radio the fire service. Luckily Red Alert and Inferno were patrolling in the area and spotted the fire. Red Alert created a fire break with his gun while Inferno attacked the main part of the fire, and eventually it was out. Red Alert's sensors still tingled though, alerting them to an incoming attack by [[Thundercracker (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Thundercracker]] and [[Ramjet (G1)|Ramjet]]. {{storylink|Blaster Blues}}

[[File:GodGambit Red Alert Optimus don't go.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.1|No! Don't leave me on my own! They'll get me!]]
Once, Cosmos radioed in to [[Teletraan I]] to inform the Autobots he had uncovered data on a new source of energy upon [[Saturn]]'s moon of [[Titan (moon)|Titan]], but was under heavy fire from [[Astrotrain (G1)|Astrotrain]]. Optimus Prime began to order Cosmos to transmit the data, but Red Alert overruled his commander, saying it was too risky as the Decepticons might monitor and intercept the transmission. Prime acknowledged Red's caution, and instead sent a team of Autobots out aboard [[Omega Supreme (G1)|Omega Supreme]] to meet Cosmos. {{storylink|The God Gambit}}

Red Alert helped coat the [[Statue of Liberty]] in [[Corrostop]], Perceptor's latest invention. Unfortunately while they were doing so, the [[Stunticon (G1)|Stunticons]] cruised up and kidnapped Perceptor. Great security work there, Red. He and the rest of the Autobots were infected with [[Cosmic Rust (disease)|Cosmic Rust]] by the Decepticons, and it was only some clever work by Perceptor that saved them. {{storylink|Cosmic Rust (episode)|Cosmic Rust}} As the Earth moved closer and closer to the Sun as part of a [[Combaticon (G1)|Combaticon]] plan, Red Alert and Inferno fought to extinguish the many fires that started as a result, though they found that once put out, the fires would promptly start again. {{storylink|The Revenge of Bruticus}}

After shooing the kitty [[Cher]] off of him, Officer Kuruma received a call about a little boy who'd gotten lost on his way to the market. Ai (dreaming of a commendation for finding the boy) followed the sound of crying, only to find it was Cher again, up in a tree. She climbed up the tree to rescue it, but fell from the high branches... but Red Alert caught her and the cat in time.

The cat scampered off, and the pair followed him... and ran across the lost little boy. But then Cher stole a fish from the boy's grocery bag. Red Alert set his detector from "little boy" to "fish", and the two gave chase... {{storylink|The Cat and the Medal}}

Red Alert disappeared after the [[Unicron War]], his fate unknown to his Autobot comrades, but he later returned to them a changed 'bot: in his absence, his life had been saved by a Decepticon. With the realization that not all Decepticons were without compassion, Red Alert's paranoid personality underwent a transformation, and he became far less aggressive in battle, prompting strategies of defensive engagement. He went on to train younger security officers for the Autobots, showing a new, caring side that made him a well-liked member of the team.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20140611135827/http://www.e-hobbymagazine.com/english/museun_en/1636.html e-HOBBY Red Alert bio]</ref>

====Earthquake====
In one possible sequence of events, Beachcomber, Windcharger and Powerglide uncovered a Decepticon ploy to destroy Center City. When splitting up the Autobot forces to combat the Decepticons on two fronts, one at their headquarters and the other at Center City, Optimus assigned Red Alert to the secondary team.

In the event that the secondary team was sent to the Decepticons’ fortress, the Autobots stealthily infiltrated the Decepticons’ fortress, and discovered the laboratory within.

In one version of what happened next, the Autobots met up with Cosmos and were then able to redirect the Destruction Beam back to its source, destroying the Decepticons and their base.

In another version of what happened next, Megatron called his troops to him so that they could all partake in Cosmos's dismemberment. Before the Decepticons were able to begin, Cosmos spotted Red Alert and the rest of the secondary team hiding nearby. Surrounding the Decepticons, the secondary team engaged their enemies. Though the Autobots defeated the Decepticons, they were unable to interfere with the Destruction beam. The Destruction beam then reached its target, and Center City was destroyed. Though the Autobots were able to gain control of the Decepticon fortress and destroyed the lab, they were not able to wipe out all of the evil robots, and enjoyed a pyrrhic victory at best.{{storylink|Earthquake (book)|Earthquake}}
{{-}}

====Decepticon Poison====
While on patrol around the Autobot headquarters, Red Alert spotted Ramjet flying nearby. Troubled by this sighting, he immediately rushed to warn his fellow Autobots. Red Alert's warning came just in time, as Ramjet had poisoned the Autobots’ fuel supply, leaving any Autobot who had ingested any amount of the latest batch unable to transform. Optimus, as well as about half of the Autobots retained their ability to transform thanks to Red Alert's timely intervention. Red Alert then returned to his post, ready to report any new enemy activity as it arose.

If the Autobots decided to assume a defensive strategy in light of these events, Red Alert was soon to report Decepticon activity once more; this time a whole Decepticon attack force moving in quickly towards them.

In one possible scenario, the Autobots were cured from the Decepticons’ poison thanks to a cure concocted by Perceptor. The cured Autobots then charged headlong into battle against the incoming Decepticons, only to be quickly overpowered. The second wave of Autobots, those who were running low on fuel, were able to fight back and bring their injured within the base before being forced into a retreat. Red Alert then reported that the Decepticons were retreating as well, the Autobots having injured them throughout the course of battle to allow them a temporary reprieve.

In another possible scenario, where Optimus followed a plan courtesy of Prowl, the Autobot leader instructed his troops to transform into vehicle mode and play dead. The Decepticons, believing the Autobots’ ruse, disarmed themselves in order to carry out the Autobots’ “carcasses.” Now with the element of surprise against unarmed opponent, the Autobots Transformed and were able to easily defeat the evil robots.

In another possible turn of events, Red Alert reported a full-scale Decepticon assault as Perceptor finished giving out his antidote... only for the Autobot to realize too late that he had given too much of the stuff to his comrades. The Autobots who received the antidote soon found themselves falling apart, leaving Red Alert and the rest outmatched against the greater number of Decepticons.

In yet another possible sequence of events, the Autobots decided to use the tainted fuel as a weapon against the Decepticons. Red Alert warned his fellow Autobots that they had a mere ten minutes to execute their plan before the Decepticons were upon them. Lighting the fuel to create a toxic cloud allowed the Autobots to ward off the Decepticons, allowing them the time to cure the poisoned Autobots.

Alternatively, in an alternate path wherein Optimus returned from the Decepticons’ lab with the antidote to the poison, the Autobot leader informed his troops of the Decepticons’ next plot. The evil robots were planning poison a nearby water reservoir in order to turn humans into mindless slaves. If Optimus decided to end his troops to the water reservoir to prevent this attack, Red Alert was amongst the group of Autobots that found the reservoir swarmed by Decepticons upon their arrival. Whether or not the Autobots succeeded in defeating the Decepticons depended on which decisions the other Autobots made. {{storylink|Decepticon Poison}}

====The Invisibility Factor====
[[File:Sarah Sanders.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.1]]
In one possible scenario, the Decepticons gained control of an [[Invisibility Device]]. When the invisible Decepticons attacked Metroplex city, Red Alert and the rest of the Autobots were reduced to scrap metal, unable to fight the unseen enemy.

In another scenario, where the Autobots gave up searching for a ship with invisibility capabilities, Red Alert and the rest of the Autobots within Metroplex were caught by surprise by a fleet of identical ships swooping down upon them. The Autobots were all destroyed as Galvatron gloated of his victory.

In yet another possible scenario, Red Alert participated in a battle against the Decepticons when the evil robots attacked Metroplex while using Invisibility Devices. Thanks to the Invisibility Device's inventor, [[Sarah Sanders]], the Autobots were in possession of an [[Invisibility Scrambler]] to counteract the Decepticons’ Invisibility Device. Anticipating the Decepticons’ attack, the Autobots successfully defeated the evil robots when they came. {{storylink|The Invisibility Factor}}

Red Alert was serving the Autobot cause in [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]] when [[Sentinel Prime (G1)|Sentinel Prime]] was destroyed, and Optronix first rose to become Optimus Prime at the request of [[Council of Ancients]].

After the [[Great Shutdown]], Red Alert was one of the first Autobots resurrected by the new alliance of [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]] and [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]], and was chosen to lead the united Cybertronians alongside Shockwave and an [[Autobot High Council]]. {{storylink|Cold War (issue)|Cold War}} The council proved incapable of adequately leading on their own, though, and began gradually giving more and more power to Shockwave over time, until their role was as little more than figureheads. Ultimately, it took the arrival of Optimus Prime and the [[Ark (G1)|Ark]]'s crew to galvanize the Autobot forces of Cybertron into realizing just how badly they'd been had by the Decepticons. Red Alert and the council finally joined in the insurrection and helped bring down Shockwave's empire. {{storylink|Revelation (War and Peace)|Revelation}}

Red Alert was [[Reproduction|constructed cold]]. {{storylink|Remain in Light 4 of 5: Arm the Lonely|Arm the Lonely}} Before the war, he was the warden of [[Translucentica Heights]]. He became a regular informant for the police, often spending his time collecting information on [[Militant Monoform Movement|Triple M]] and the growing [[Decepticon]] movement and passing it on to the Cybertronian security services. {{storylink|Shadowplay, Part 1: Post Hoc|Post Hoc}} Red Alert also worked as an informant to [[Sentinel Prime (G1)|Sentinel]], the chief of security for the Senate. Red Alert and other informants were subjected to a proto-shadowplay form of reconditioning, making them into sleeper agents for Sentinel who would serve as a secret militia whenever necessary. {{storylink|Last Light (issue)|Last Light}}

[[File:IDW MtMtE5 Rung analyses Red Alert.jpg|thumb|"But Red Alert you know, he is one of my most profitable clients. He has personality problems beyond the dreams of analysts."]]
Perhaps because of this, Red Alert suffered from acute paranoia. Beginning six months before the war and continuing for six centuries, Red Alert was a patient of the psychiatrist [[Rung (G1)|Rung]]: he'd come to Rung at [[Sherma Bridge]] where "they" wouldn't hear, babbling about mistakes he'd made and how he was at a crossroads. His crippling paranoia meant it took him 288 sessions to tell the analyst his real name. One of the things he was worried about was "the Institute"; Rung thought this, and the fears of "them" listening in, was just paranoia. {{storylink|Liars, A to D Part 1: How to Say Goodbye and Mean It|How to Say Goodbye and Mean It}} {{storylink|How Ratchet Got His Hands Back}}

He was brought in during [[Prowl (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Prowl]] and [[Chromedome (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Tumbler]]'s investigation of [[Momus|Senator Momus]]'s murder and informed the two cops that the murderer couldn't have been a Decepticon—he'd found evidence that Momus ''himself'' was one of the Decepticons. However, this information was almost certainly planted in his head by the [[Institute]] as part of a [[Senate]] plot to prove the Decepticons' innocence before turning on them later. {{storylink|Shadowplay, Part 2: Patternism|Patternism}}

Only a short time later, Red Alert had become a member of the Autobot Security Services in [[Kaon (polity)|Kaon]], under Prowl and [[Sentinel Prime (G1)|Sentinel Prime]]'s command. The Security Services were investigating the rise of the violent [[Gladiatorial combat|illegal bloodsport]], led by the combatant known as [[Megatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Megatron]]. {{storylink|Megatron Origin issue 2|Megatron Origin #2}}

[[File:Red Alert and Mirage A Rude Awakening.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.5]]
On Earth centuries later, Red Alert joined [[Hot Rod (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Hot Rod]] as they attempted to find a way off world. Following an "attack" by [[Swindle (G1)|Swindle]]'s team of Decepticons, he was very much against any attempt at negotiation. {{storylink|Things Fall Apart, Part 1: "New Arrivals, Old Encounters"|New Arrivals, Old Encounters}} However, Hot Rod decided that they needed all the help they could get in getting off Earth, and let the Decepticons join them. Red Alert grumbled about this alongside [[Mirage (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Mirage]]. {{storylink|Things Fall Apart, Part 2: "A Rude Awakening"|A Rude Awakening}} Red Alert was working on their rocket when [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Ultra Magnus]] turned up to investigate [[Ironhide (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Ironhide]]'s death. {{Storylink|Things Fall Apart, Part 3: "Seasons in Flight"|Seasons in Flight}}

While Red Alert's suspicions were proven correct when Swindle betrayed the Autobots, they managed to defeat him and [[Menasor (G1)|Menasor]] thanks to the return of [[Optimus Prime (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Optimus Prime]]. Red Alert was hoping that he would retake his place as leader of the Autobots, but Prime told him that they couldn't return to how things used to be, and that [[Bumblebee (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Bumblebee]] was their leader now. {{storylink|Things Fall Apart, Part 5: "Earthworks"|Earthworks}} Later, he wasn't one of the Autobots picked for the mission to stop the [[Combaticon (G1)|Combaticons]] in [[North Korea]], and ended up relaxing in a [[Skywatch]] hangar with [[Bluestreak (G1)|Silverstreak]] and a glass of energy instead. {{storylink|International Incident Part 3: "Hawk Among the Sparrows"|Hawk Among the Sparrows}}

When the Decepticons showed up and devastated the Skywatch base a day or two later, Red Alert apparently went off and rejoined the North Korea team, who had recently returned to the United States. The Autobots rolled out to confront Megatron near [[Albuquerque]], but Optimus Prime ordered them to stay back while he went ahead alone to confirm what was going on. {{storylink|Revenge of the Decepticons Part 4: Burning Chrome|Burning Chrome}}

Red Alert was one of the many Autobots who boarded [[Omega Supreme (G1)|Omega Supreme]] to return to Cybertron and vanquish [[Galvatron (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Galvatron]]. [[Sunstreaker (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Sunstreaker]]'s [[Bob (IDW)|pet]] made him uneasy. {{storylink|Space Opera—Final Tableaux: Orphans of the Helix|Orphans of the Helix}} In the middle of the Autobots' battle against Galvatron's army, the Decepticons showed up and attacked them.

Once the battle was over, Cybertron was finally at peace... until [[NAIL|non-affiliated Transformers]] began returning and protesting against Autobot rule. When a major riot took place, Red Alert was among the Autobots who tried to suppress it. {{storylink|Transformers: The Death of Optimus Prime|The Death of Optimus Prime}} He later became Head of Security on the ''[[Lost Light]]'' when [[Hot Rod (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Rodimus]] announced that he'd go searching for the legendary [[Knights of Cybertron]], and was in charge of running security checks on everyone who boarded.

Shortly after the ''Lost Light'' was lost in space due to a [[Quantum generator|quantum jump]] accident at launch, Red Alert was sent to investigate some noises on the lower decks. Upon discovering the sparkless corpse of [[Shock (G1)|Shock]], he panicked and called Rodimus to tell him there was a [[Sparkeater (creature)|Sparkeater]] on board. {{storylink|Liars, A to D Part 2: Hangers On|Hangers On}} He then participated in the investigation of the body and the hunt for the Sparkeater. {{storylink|Liars, A to D Part 3: The Chaos of Warm Things|The Chaos of Warm Things}} Unfortunately for Red Alert, his habitation suite on the ''Lost Light'' was shared with Swerve, who kept fueling his paranoia by playing practical jokes on him while he was recharging. {{storylink|Life After the Big Bang}}

Red Alert later told Rung that he was hearing noises coming from the crack in the floor of the cell where they had found the Sparkeater. Red Alert showed him a recording of the noise and Rung could vaguely recognize it as "me... kill" over and over again. {{storylink|How Ratchet Got His Hands Back}} {{storylink|Signal to Noise}} The situation caused Red Alert's paranoia to spike once more, and he became concerned that he was a sleeper agent subjected to shadowplay... or at least feared the fact that he couldn't ''prove'' he was ''not''. Giving in to Red's concerns, Rung provided him with psychological defenses, seeding his subconscious with "alerts" that would warn him if he were acting against his own will. {{storylink|Last Light (issue)|Last Light}}

Shortly after the visit to [[Delphi]], Red Alert was seen hanging out in [[Swerve's]]. {{storylink|No Guns, No Swords, No Briefcases}} Red Alert along with nearly everyone on board of the ''Lost Light'' were frozen in place due to one of Brainstorm's experimental weapons accidentally going off. After he recovered, he was awarded a Rodimus Star "for exceptional endurance in the face of adversity." {{storylink|The Reluctant Specialist}}

Red Alert later used the deceased Ore's drill arm to find the source of the noise he had heard earlier. Drilling through the floor of the Sparkeater chamber, the lowest level of the ship according its schematics, he found a hidden chamber and the source of the sound—an immobilized [[Overlord (G1)|Overlord]] begging to be killed. {{storylink|Interiors}}

[[File:Red Alert on ice An Intimate Beheading.jpg|thumb|upright=0.9]]
Red Alert later returned from his discovery to find that Rung was in a coma from a recent attack by [[Fortress Maximus (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Fortress Maximus]]. He believed that he could only trust Rung on the things he had seen and left a [[data slug]] in Rung's hand, hoping nobody was around to have witnessed it. However, a [[Diagnostic Drone]] had recorded the whole event, and the slug was later retrieved by an unknown party. {{storylink|Rules of Disengagement (issue)|Rules of Disengagement}} Shortly thereafter, Red Alert went missing. {{storylink|Primus: You, Me, and Other Revelations|You, Me, and Other Revelations}} The other Autobots later found him decapitated and discarded in the ship's oil reservoir. {{storylink|Shadowplay, Part 1: Post Hoc|Post Hoc}} Luckily his spark was still functioning and his head was found and reattached by [[First Aid (G1)|First Aid]], who had faith that he could be restored to normal. First Aid was also able to work out just who'd tried to kill him... {{storylink|Shadowplay, Part 2: Patternism|Patternism}}

...himself. First Aid revealed that in his opinion, Red Alert had deliberately removed his own head and allowed himself to fall into the oil reservoir. As their head of security was obviously not in the best of mental health, Ultra Magnus suggested that he be placed in cold storage until their quest was over and when [[Drift (G1)|Drift]] agreed, Rodimus had little choice but to comply. {{storylink|Shadowplay (Conclusion): An Intimate Beheading|An Intimate Beheading}}

But even cold storage couldn't protect Red Alert when [[Solomus|Tyrest]] activated his [[universal killswitch]] on [[Moonbase One|Luna 1]]. Because he was constructed cold, the effects of the killswitch slowly began to kill Red Alert. {{storylink|Remain in Light 4 of 5: Arm the Lonely|Arm the Lonely}} When Rodimus used the Matrix to reverse the switch's effects, Red Alert recovered. {{storylink|Remain in Light 5 of 5: This Calamitous Life|This Calamitous Life}} Ratchet reactivated Red Alert after the ordeal was over. Apologetic at his actions, Red Alert opted to stay on Luna 1 with Fortress Maximus and the [[Circle of Light]] to search for Decepticons in the area. Sometime later, Red Alert discovered that Tyrest, whom they'd been holding prisoner and was supposedly comatose, had disappeared. {{storylink|The Sound of Breaking Glass}}

An alternate Red Alert was created when the ''Lost Light''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s [[Quantum generator|quantum engines]] malfunctioned. This duplicate was shot in the head and killed by [[Helex (DJD)|Helex]] when the [[Decepticon Justice Division]] boarded the ship and slaughtered the crew. {{storylink|slaughterhouse Part 2: The Road Not Taken|The Road Not Taken}}

[[File:Cerebros IDW.jpg|left|upright=1.1|thumb]]
Some time later, Red Alert became the personal contact and navigator of Fortress Maximus, the newly Duly Appointed Enforcer of the Tyrest Accord. Red Alert often provided information on Fortress Maximus's current assignments through the information provided by [[Autopedia]], seemingly unaware of its gross susceptibility to vandalism. {{storylink|Animals}} When the final words of Team Rodimus were broadcast across the galaxy, Red Alert dissected every frame of the message searching for clues about their fate. {{storylink|The Dying of the Light: (1) How Bright Their Frail Deeds|How Bright Their Frail Deeds}}

[[File:TenToMidnight-twovstwo.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1]]
The stress over the apparent death of Rung and his other former crewmates caused a relapse in Red's paranoia. He struggled to keep it together while working with Fortress Maximus and [[Cerebros (G1)|Cerebros]] to repair the [[Domestication|domesticated]] [[Roboid]]s Max found on one of his missions. Their relatively quiet life was interrupted by Prowl, who arrived with a story that Sentinel Prime had returned from the dead and planned to destroy Cybertron with the [[Titan]]s found on Luna-1. Sure enough, they discovered Sentinel inside a relatively intact Titan, working to use his one Titan to revive the others. And when the odds seemed shifted against him, Sentinel finally activated the sleeper agent program in Red Alert's mind from four million years ago, making him attack Prowl. {{storylink|Ten to Midnight}}

As Red Alert outwardly assisted Sentinel in fighting off his enemies, inwardly he began exploring the glitches and continuity errors in his memories that he and Rung had set up months ago. The inner quest finally jarred his recollection of Rung's therapy, allowing him to drown out Sentinel's influence and reassert his true personality. He shot Sentinel and, when the false Prime tried to resume control, the Roboid named [[Beak]] knocked him down a mile long thruster tube. With his paranoia explained and his mind cleared, Red Alert felt more satisfied and at peace than he had in a while. {{storylink|Last Light (issue)|Last Light}}

[[File:Sardines RedAlertCerebrosTidyUp.jpg|thumb|upright=1.5|left|You can practically hear the late-90s death metal playing in the background.]]
Red Alert eventually traced the signal transmitted by Team Rodimus, locating [[Necroworld]] after they had left. Unfortunately, the "[[Disappeared]]" Decepticons on that world had overrun and slaughtered the Autobots, resulting in chaos. Red, Cerebros, and Fortress Maximus worked together to reclaim Necroworld and end the Decepticon threat, with Red Alert killing [[Rapidfire (G1)|Rapidfire]] in the ensuing skirmish. He found the Decepticon had taken to wearing the [[Mortilus|Necrobot]]'s cloak, and couldn't resist trying it on as well. {{storylink|Sardines}}

Having returned to Luna 1, Red Alert received a scrambled message that could have come from Rodimus' group, but couldn't decode it and refused to indulge his paranoid tendencies in looking for hidden meaning in it. {{storylink|Last Light (issue)|Last Light}}

The Luna 1 crew eventually made contact with Rodimus' team and received a bizarre set of instructions from him. Fortress Maximus had Red Alert pilot Luna 1 through the [[Warren]], and they stumbled into a battle against a giant [[Primus]] avatar controlled by the [[Functionist Council]] on the other side. After Red crashed Luna 1 into the back of the avatar's head and forced it to assume planet mode, the crew looked on from above as Rodimus' group managed to end the threat, which also had the side-effect of re-igniting Luna 1's dormant [[hot spot (phenomenon)|hot spot]]. Red Alert accompanied Fortress Maximus to meet with Rodimus in the aftermath. {{storylink|Crucible (Part 6): A Spark Among Embers|A Spark Among Embers}} Red Alert attended the farewell party for the decommissioned ''Lost Light'', looking a bit twitchy to be around so many lively people again, especially when Rodimus invaded his personal space.

Far in the future, Red Alert attended [[Ratchet (G1)/2005 IDW continuity|Ratchet]]'s funeral. {{storylink|How To Say Goodbye And Mean It: Part 2}}

When they revealed themselves, Octane fled, but the duo chased him across the desert. Red Alert was temporarily blinded when Smokescreen forgot that Octane could fly and had attempted to stop the [[Triple Changer]] with his trademark cloud of magnetized smoke. Thinking himself free of pursuit, Octane began to implement his plan and indulged in a bit of daydreaming. However, he was interrupted when Red Alert and Smokescreen again appeared, revealing that they were able to follow him using Red Alert's enhanced sensors. This caused Cyclonus to conclude that the Decepticon forces did not require Octane's talents, and he left to report Octane's incompetence to Megatron. Red Alert cracked his knuckles while leering at the abandoned Octane, implying that when they were finished with him, Octane would no longer be in mint condition. {{storylink|Henkei!

===Renegade Rhetoric===
The Red Alert of [[Primax 085.0 Eta]] became one of the [[Spy Changer]]s who pursued [[Megatron (G1)#The Battle for Planet Earth|Megatron]]'s Renegade Decepticons, who had captured Optimus Prime, to another universe. Once on the other side, Red Alert asked [[Wheeljack (G1)#The Battle for Planet Earth|Wheeljack]] if the [[Reality Beacon]] was functioning. He then began to patrol with his teammate [[Hoist (G1)|Hoist]] and team commander [[Jazz (G1)|Jazz]]. {{storylink|Transformers: Renegade Rhetoric|Renegade Rhetoric (2), 2016/05/02}} In one mission, the Spy CHangers traveled to a [[Sumdac Systems]] facility which [[Nightracer (G2)|Nightracer]] and [[Crash Test (G2)|Crash Test]] had raided. Unfortunately, the Decepticons were gone with stolen [[Destronium]], and the Spy Changers were confronted by the [[Society of Ultimate Villainy]]. Red Alert did his best against [[Sergeant Chaos]]. {{storylink|Transformers: Renegade Rhetoric|Renegade Rhetoric (2), 2016/05/05}} Later, Red Alert's team went to [[Metro City]] after Hoist determined that the Decepticons might be interested in [[Professor Morris]]'s [[Brainwave Scanner]]. Unfortunately, [[Soundwave (G1)|Soundwave]] maneuvered [[Intelligence and Information Institute|III]] into believing that the Autobots were evil. Hoist and Red Alert were forced to flee while Jazz was captured by III. Red Alert and Hoist rescued Jazz from III headquarters by causing a small fire. On their way out with Jazz, Red Alert saved the life of an III agent who had become trapped in the blaze, [[Nick Burns]]. Burns promised the Autobots that he would try to convince his superiors of the Autobots' true nature. {{storylink|Transformers: Renegade Rhetoric|Renegade Rhetoric (2), 2016/05/09}} Subsequently, Wheeljack was able to tap into the Decepticons' communication network. [[Prowl (G1)#The Battle for Planet Earth|Prowl]] quickly organized a strike force, overruling Red Alert's objection that their base would be undefended. But at the Decepticons' base, the Spy Changers were overcome by the Decepticon Go-Bots' new powers. Fleeing back to base, the Autobots were once again overwhelmed by [[Nemesis Prime (G1)|Nemesis Prime]], being forced to flee once more. {{storylink|Transformers: Renegade Rhetoric|Renegade Rhetoric (2), 2016/05/12}}

Red Alert was responsible for security for the Ark project on Cybertron. Although he had countless security protocols in place, his focus was primarily on air attacks, the Decepticons' traditionally favored means to strike. A brazen approach by a single combatant on the ground transmitting Autobot transponder signals caught even Red by surprise. Even worse was when the horrendous [[Toxitron (G1)|Toxitron]] penetrated his security, demonstrating both his personal regenerative and outwardly destructive abilities. Red Alert was bisected by Toxitron's [[Agonizer Blade]] while trying to defend the base. {{storylink|The Toxic Transformer}}

Red Alert was an Autobot medic, and attended to injured Autobots in the infirmary. Bumblebee was sent to Red Alert's care, and the medic patched the energon scout up. {{storylink|Siege episode 1}} Red Alert was later present when Optimus Prime announces the development that Ultra Magnus had surrendered to Megatron. Red Alert suggested that Magnus' brain module could get hacked, allowing the Decepticons to learn the location of The Ark. Despite the revelation, Red Alert rallied under Prime's call. {{storylink|Siege episode 2}}

[[File:WFC-Siege-Ep5-Red-Alert-and-Deep-Cover.jpg|thumb|left|300px|Also known as Green-Jarvus Ben-Ellis.]]
Red Alert was attending to injured Autobots when he was approached by Ratchet and the Decepticon Impactor. Red Alert lamented the many sparks lost in the war, though Ratchet assured him to keep at his work. {{storylink|Siege episode 4}} When the Autobots base at the Ark was exposed and came under attack, Red Alert helped defend it, attending to Bumblebee, who was rendered unconscious by the deployment of Shockwave's virus. Despite the loss to the Alpha Trion Protocols, Red Alert told the scout he must fly and handed him a blaster. Red Alert met with Elita-1 and Ironhide, and the team agreed to protect the ship from the Decepticons. Red Alert boarded the ark when it launched, and traveled over to evacuate the rest of the Autobots. However, while helping his fellow Autobots onto the ship, Red Alert was shot, and fell from the ''Ark''. He was assumed dead and left behind, The Ark, leaving through the space bridge, though reunited with Elita-1, Chromia, and Jetfire, forming a small Autobot resistance on Cybertron. {{storylink|Siege episode 6}}

[[File:WFC-Earthrise-Ep1-Red-Alert-vehicle.jpg|thumb|300px]]
Red Alert and the Resistance attacked a Seeker team and saved a group of helpless Decepticons. The team pondered why the Decepticons were locking up their own troops. Red alert later presented Elita with information from their scout Steeljaw, indicating a massive incarceration camp at Kaon. Despite Jetfire's protested as to the risks, Elita agreed to a plan to free them, telling Red Alert to be ready for survivors. At the camp, the Autobots suspected something was awry due to the lack of guards, but engaged the Decepticons in battle anyway. On the ground, the Autobots eventually overtook the prison, while Jetfire took out Seekers overhead. The Autobots pressed on deeper into the prison and noticed that most of the cells were empty as they track an Autobot signal. But after a brief skirmish, they realized they've been had: Starscream sprang his trap and the Autobots were surrounded. Red Alert and the others were hauled into the arena and bought before Megatron, who showed them his plan to harvest the sparks of the Cybertronians to power Project: Nemesis. Red Alert was then taken away with the rest of the team by Starscream and the Seekers, to await the next spark harvest.{{storylink|Earthrise episode 1}}

[[File:WFC-Earthrise-Ep1-I'm-always-Alert.jpg|thumb|300px|left]]
Red Alert was locked in a cell at kaon along with Chromia and Jetfire. The team debated on why Megatron was harvesting sparks. Red Alert doubted it was a weapon, stating the Decepticons had already won the war. Red Alert tinkered with the barrier, trying to free them, but was unsuccessful. He lamented that there was no one to send a distress signal to, that HQ was deserted and Omega Supreme's location was unknown. Red Alert was then taken to the arena with the rest of the team, and watched as Megatron offered Elita-1 a place at his side. Barricade then initiated the harvesting process, trapping Red Alert in the harvest chamber, though the process was halted by the arrival of [[Scrapface]], who set the team free. With their binders deactivated, Red Alert and the rest of the team ran as the arena went into lockdown. They were then aided by [[Skytread]], who allowed them to escape. {{storylink|Earthrise episode 2}}

Having escaped the arena, Red Alert and the others took cover to hide from Seeker patrols hunting them. But when Scrapface caused a commotion, a brief conflict began, leading the team to quickly kill the Seekers present, keeping their position secure. Safe, they made it to the refuge, the old theatre. There, Red Alert attended to the injured Decepticons, and bore witness to Shockwave's broadcast, ordering all Decepticons to report to Kaon arena. Realizing the threat posed, the team agreed to bring down Shockwave, once and for all. {{storylink|Earthrise episode 3}}

Red Alert joined his allies in the mission to the arena and waited outside with the rest of the team while Elita went in to set the explosives. However, they were suddenly ambushed by Shockwave's forces, having used cloaking technology to sneak up on them. Red Alert was captured with the others and escorted towards the arena to face Shockwave, despite the Autobots warning of the planted explosives ahead. When the still active Chromia attacked their captors, Red Alert and the others ran towards the arena, hoping to reach Elita. They never did, as the explosives suddenly went off, destroying the entire area and killing them all. {{storylink|Earthrise episode 6}}

==Notes==
[[File:RedAlertG1-modelback.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|My back transforms crazy!]]
*Generation 1 cartoon notes:
**Voice actor Michael Chain has stated that he based his characterization of Red Alert on former [[President of the United States|U.S. President]] [[Richard Nixon]], a man so incredibly paranoid that he kept secret audio recordings of ''himself''.
**Red Alert appeared in one of five original Generation 1 [[public service announcement]]s. After nearly mowing down a pair of kids on bikes, Red Alert scolded them and told them to never ride at night without reflectors. However, Red Alert was shown driving at night without his headlights on, so that probably didn't help.
**Curiously, though his altmode is a Lamborghini, and his Tech Specs even state that he's "fast in vehicular mode", he has a "Speed" rating of... 3, which makes him as fast as some Dinobots. Ouch.
**Although the first year of the ''Transformers'' line in Japan consisted of both 1984 ''and'' 1985 toys, Red Alert just managed to pip most of the U.S. 1985 range to the post by being released in tandem with [[Sideswipe (G1)|Sideswipe]] as one of the initial releases. Early ''[[TV Magazine]]'' art ostensibly featuring the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|season 1]] cast even specifically includes Red Alert among the 1984 Autobots.<ref>http://tfarchive.com/comics/japanese/superrobotlife.php?dgallery_show=superrobotlife/SRLcastpage2.jpg</ref>
**Red Alert's [[character model]] is, for the most part, more toy accurate than Sideswipe's, as the '85 characters tended to be. The big change is that instead of a windshield on his back (like Sideswipe), Red Alert has the top of his trunk (including spoiler!).
**According to a [[story page]] in the October 1985 issue of ''[[TV Magazine]]'', Red Alert and [[Sideswipe (G1)|Sideswipe]] are brothers, with Sideswipe being slightly older than Red Alert. This connection may have been invented because, aside from Sideswipe and Red Alert sharing the same mold, Sunstreaker was not sold in the Japanese market outside of a special "versus" set with [[Skids (G1)|Skids]] and [[Buzzsaw (G1)|Buzzsaw]]. However, the familial dynamic between Sideswipe and Sunstreaker was '''not''' changed in the Japanese dub of the original ''Transformers'' cartoon, leading some Japanese fans to consider the three Lamborghini characters as triplets.
**When and how most of the 1985 characters came to be on Earth was never explained in the cartoon. [[Fun Publications]] would offer [[Battle Lines, Part 6|their implicit explanation]] in the ''[[Transformers: Wings Universe|Wings Universe]]'' spin-off stories, depicting Red Alert, among others, as having entered stasis until the 1984 characters returned to Cybertron with more energy supplies.
*[[Headmaster (technology)|Headmaster]] [[Siren (G1)|Siren]] was originally conceived as either an upgrade or homage to Red Alert.<ref>[[Transformers Generations|Transformers Generations Deluxe]], p108</ref> While the [[robot mode]] was largely blue unlike Red Alert, it featured a similar head to the early Autobot. The car mode, on the other hand, featured a near carbon copy of Red Alert's paint scheme. The Red Alert references were dropped early in the design process.
[[File:Universe2003toy-InfernoDeluxe.jpg|upright=1.4|thumb|Psych! I'm actually Inferno!]]
*The color schemes for the [[Transformers: Universe (2003 franchise)|2003 ''Universe'']] versions of [[Inferno (BW)|Inferno]] and ''Robots in Disguise'' Spy Changer [[Prowl (RID)|Prowl]] are clearly based on Red Alert's Generation 1 look. Inferno in particular caused a great deal of fan confusion when first released; here was a toy named Inferno, decorated like Red Alert, released alongside a toy named [[Ratchet (Universe)|Ratchet]], decorated like [[Inferno (G1)|Inferno]]. [[Hasbro]] design director [[Aaron Archer]] (in his online "Orson" persona) disclosed that this was the result of a mistake in the naming process.
**Years later, the Facebook edition of "[[Ask Vector Prime#Facebook|Ask Vector Prime]]" would describe ''Universe'' Inferno as an incarnation of [[Inferno (BW)|''Beast Wars'' Inferno]] who had salvaged a chassis from a [[Red Alert (RID 2001)|''Robots in Disguise'' incarnation of Red Alert]]. Meanwhile, sister Facebook page "[[Transformers: Renegade Rhetoric|Renegade Rhetoric]]" would repurpose the ''Universe'' Prowl toy as [[#Renegade Rhetoric|a Spy Changer body]] for Generation 1 Red Alert.

The sky on Mars -- in the absence of large amounts of suspended red dust, which does happen from time to time -- is indeed blue instead of salmon. --[[User:Steve-o|Steve-o]] 17:38, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

I've heard it said that the Earth's oceans give its sky a blue pigment, which is a natural optical illusion of some sort given that neither the atmosphere nor the seas are literally blue in appearance. Therefore, exactly why would the Martian sky appear blue in the absence of atmospheric red dust? I'm just curious on that point, given that there are no native oceans on Mars (although there are indeed glaciers). -- [unregistered & anonymous] noon, 08 March 2008 (MST)
:I doubt this anon is ever coming back, but for the record, the color of the sky is the result of sunlight scattering as it enters the atmosphere and is not because of the ocean. [https://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/General/BlueSky/blue_sky.html This page] has a pretty good explanation, and even touches on Mars's sky at the bottom. --[[User:Andrusi|Andrusi]] ([[User talk:Andrusi|talk]]) 16:20, 8 April 2022 (EDT)

'''Better the devil you know.'''

==Synopsis==
The [[Lost Bots]] are getting a start on their lamest attempt yet to get back in with the other squads: disguising themselves with clothes and props from the doll store and pretending they're not the Lost Bots. They hide as [[Dave (BotBots)|Dave]] walks by, talking to his [[Dave's mom|mom]] over the phone about how he's lost his job... a job at the only place he's ever felt like he actually belonged. Feeling pangs of guilt, the Lost Bots follow Dave through the [[mall (BotBots)|mall]] as he continues to explain to his mom it's all over and maybe he'll move on to some other life goals, like being a living statue performer. He retreats to his office to clean out his locker, and even sings a dramatic, soul-rending song of sadness over the lemons life keeps throwing at him. And while the Lost Bots feel weirdly sad as Dave leaves the mall for the last time, [[Burgertron]] has a sudden revelation... no Dave means no reason to hide at night. ''The mall belongs to the BotBots!''

The BotBots waste no time going absolutely buck wild. The [[Greaser Gang|Hunger Hubs]] make a mess of the food court, the [[Toilet Troop|Custodial Crew]] clog the toilets, and the [[Jock Squad]] engage in churro-jousting. Even the Lost Bots are having a ball piling ice cream onto [[Clogstopper]] when something new arrives: a trio of treaded [[security bot]]s. Burgertron's initial excitement at the arrival of some fellow bots turns to blind panic as the security robots register the BotBots as "rodents" and fire deadly lasers to eliminate them! The security bots spread out, and BotBots everywhere flee for their lives. Fortunately for the BotBots, the security bots have bad aim... but ''un''fortunately for the mall, the lasers do major damage to everything they actually hit.

Soon the mall is a blasted wasteland, with small pockets of BotBots hiding from the killer robots. The Lost Bots find themselves with a small group that includes [[Spud Muffin]], who, even in mortal peril, can't resist getting a dig in at their expense. <s>Burgertron</s> Spud Muffin comes up with the idea that each squad needs to try and come up with a plan to stop the bots, and they all get to work. However, nothing seems to stop the security force. The [[Jock Squad]] knock them down but they get back up again, the [[Gamer Geeks]] try rewiring them but are zapped by internal security systems. [[Bonz-Eye]] figures they must have a weakness to exploit, but what?

Burgertron takes them to Dave's office to show them a rare tome: an "instruction manual". Within its pages, they find that by plugging the mall's master security code into one of the security bots, all three units will shut down. But only flesh creatures know the code, and the BotBots only know one flesh creature, and he was just fired. To save the BotBots and the mall, they must get Dave back! The Lost Bots meet up with [[Ring-A-Ling]], the company phone Dave was forced to leave behind, who tells them the only number Dave ever added to her was Dave's mom. After getting past Dave's mom, Burgertron poses as "Mr. Mallworker Fleshguy, Esquire" to tell Dave that he needs to come back to the mall ''tonight'' to pick up his "donut of service", a reward for all his time working at the mall. Dave immediately hangs up.

Returning to the main hall, the Lost Bots spy Spud Muffin's attempt to stop the security bots: a massive battering ram made up of joined-together shopping carts suspended from the ceiling. As the killer bots arrive, the other Hunger Hubs untie one end, sending the carts smashing into the bots and knocking them into the (rebuilt) fountain, where they shut down. The other BotBots cheer, Spud Muffin starts a rather presumptive speech... and of course the security bots emerge from the water, now in even creepier, deadlier spider-like modes, and once again the BotBots make a mad dash for their lives. Nothing's worked, they need a hero now more than ever...

...at which point Dave returns, the lure of a small piece of free fried dough more than enough to get him back. Enraged at the carnage the security bots are unleashing on his beloved mall, he charges at them only to hide when the lasers start. The bots scan the area, but despite him being ''right next to them'', they can't find him, as Dave's living statue practice and general inactivity has given him the ability to be completely motionless, confusing the security bots' motion detectors. He sneaks up on them until he's close enough to leap on one, where he's able to input the master security code and shut them down. And as he searches for Mr. Mallworker Fleshguy, Esquire, still wanting that donut, he doesn't notice that the entire scene has been caught on camera by [[Fomo]].

The next night, Dave is back in his office on his company phone, thanking [[Randall (BotBots)|his boss]] for re-hiring him. It seems ''someone'' emailed the video of Dave's heroic rescue of the mall to corporate. As Dave settles in for another night, he spots a fresh(!) donut on his desk, alongside a [[Costa Pasta]] collector's cup... the last cup he needed for his collection of mall cups! And it's filled with lemonade! And spotting some sesame seeds by these prizes, Dave has a flash of realization: ''did that little burger-bot get him his job back?''

==Quotes==
"No, mom, I can't just grow a moustache and re-apply for the job with a new name!"
:—For once, '''Dave''' is smarter than Burgertron

"I really should get my own backing singers."
:—Is '''Clogstopper''' breaking the laws of {{w|diegesis}} or merely being random? Who can tell, really?

"I always thought we needed personal boundaries to have fun! So! Foolish!"
:—'''Batsby'''

'''Burgertron''': ''Is'' he our enemy? Maybe in his own fleshy and gross way he loves the mall as much as we do! And he should be as free to be here as we BotBots are! In fact, maybe freedom is the right of ''all'' sentient beings! 
'''Dimlit''': What's "sentient"? 
'''Kikmee''': Like a snake. 
'''Bonz-Eye''': No, that's a serpent. 
'''Clogstopper''': Dave's a ''serpent?!''

"Hello. Is this the Dave's Mom? Is Dave there?... I'm uh... human friends with Dave!... Why is that funny? Dave has friends!"
:—'''Burgertron''', aka '''Mr. Mallworker Fleshguy, Esquire''' makes an important call

"No, I wouldn't call me brave. I just learned that passion, and the promise of fried dough, can make a man do incredible things."
:—Never change, '''Dave'''

==Notes==
===Continuity notes===
* Dave lost his job at the end of the prior episode, "[[Agent Smartlit (episode)|Agent Smartlit]]", after destroying the main hall's fountain and a chunk of the food court.
* A flier for Burgertron's ''The Real [[I, Cheeseburger (play)|I, Cheeseburger]]'' production floats through the ruined main hall.
* The mall's master security code of "111111" was the code Clogstopper tried to unlock Dave's phone in "[[Phoning It In]]". It wasn't the right code there, but here? ''Vindication!''
* Burgertron obtained the rare Costa Pasta collector's cup way back in "[[The Lost Bots and the Claw Crusade]]". He was convinced it was useless, but Kikmee told him to keep it as it might be useful some day.
* The donut Burgertron left for Dave has ''blue'' frosting on it; definitely don't want a repeat of that "did Burgertron murder [[Sprinkleberry D'uhnut]]?" "misunderstanding" from [[Crime and Bun-ishment|a little while back]].

===Transformers references===
(Wow, we haven't had to pull this section out for a while, have we?)
* Yes, Burgertron spouts the catchphrase of many an [[Optimus Prime (disambiguation)|Optimus Prime]]. Which, given the original toy's similarities to the standard Optimus in the head region, makes sense.

===Real-world references===
* The killer security bots are a deliberate homage to the 1986 horror film ''{{w|Chopping Mall}}'' (aka ''Killbots''), in which a trio of black, treaded, laser-visor-having, malfunctioning experimental security robots hunt down a group of teenagers who've snuck into a mall after hours to have a party. They even share the "Have a nice day" phrase.

===Animation and technical errors===
* Despite having happened almost assuredly a ''very'' short time ago, like possibly within hours, the fountain and food court have been rebuilt and are in perfect working order by the time Dave goes to clean out his locker. Of course, a similar situation happened in "[[Rage Against the Karaoke Machine]]", and also, it's funnier this way, so hey.

===Trivia===
* The music playing over the credits is the second chorus from Dave's lemons song, because of course.

Bathroom

2022-03-31T04:24:50Z

Andrusi: My at the mall?

{{factions|toilettroop}}
[[File:BotBots commercial - bathroom.jpg|upright=2.5|thumb|The all new loo review.]]

Sometimes when you're at the [[Mall (BotBots)|mall]], nature calls. When it does, head to the '''bathroom'''! You'll be flush with a wonderful feeling as it all drains away, ready to get back to shopping.

After the [[energon]] cloud filled the mall, the bathroom was claimed by the [[Toilet Troop]]. No mention of needing to light a match to take care of energon smell.

==Fiction==

===''BotBots Official Sticker Book''===
[[Frohawk]] was known for leaving graffiti tags all over the bathroom stalls, even in places she shouldn't have been able to reach. {{storylink|Transformers BotBots Official Sticker Book|BotBots Official Sticker Book}}

===''Lost Bots!''===
[[Dimlit]] set out with into the mall with a group of other [[Lost Bots]] to find what tribes they all came from. Along the way, [[The Detangler]] entered the bathroom, hoping it was a place where he could help keep things neat. After seeing Stinkosaurus Rex use [[Nobeeoh]] as deodorant, he fled scared of what the Toilet Troop would do to him. {{storylink|Lost Bots! (book)|Lost Bots!}}

===Musical Mall Madness===
{{note|This stop motion singalong was a remake of the "[[#Official Digital Commercial|Official Digital Commercial]]" below.}}
{{storylink|Transformers: BotBots (franchise)|Musical Mall Madness}}

==Commercial appearances==
===Official Digital Commercial===
[[Sergeant Scrubadub]] ran on top of the toilet paper roll, unraveling it. Below, Frohawk painted poo graffiti on the toilet bowl. [[Poo Sham]] ran in carrying a chocolate bar, that they quickly smash into a poo replica. Sergeant Scrubadub hit the end of the roll, falling into the pseudo-poo, splattering the other two.
{{storylink|Commercial#Official Digital Commercial|Official Digital Commercial}}

==Notes==
[[File:BotBots mall directory - bathrooms.jpg|upright=1.2|thumb|Of course their team insignia and map color is brown.]]
* According to the mall directory, the bathroom is located on the on the top left "crest" of the [[Autobot]] [[insignia]].
* Only one bathroom location is noted on the mall directory. It's possible the mall may have others scattered throughout, and this one is the only one the Toilet Troop claimed as home.
* Most members of the Toilet Troop have [[alternate modes]] of items, that while are bathroom related, usually aren't seen in a public restroom. Additionally the ''BotBots Official Sticker Book'' describes the tribe as health, bath, and beauty bots. This may mean that the tribe was initially from a different part of the mall, such as a grocery store, and later claimed the bathroom as theirs.
* There looks to be two stickers of the Toilet Troop insignia in the stall shown in the "Official Digital Commercial". While it's likely these were put up by the Toilet Troop themselves due to their height, we also see the [[Greaser Gang]] and [[Jock Squad]] insignias in the [[food court]] and [[sports store]]. This may be some sort of official mall logo for the bathroom that the tribe adopted.
* [[Croaks]]'s online bio mentions him flushing a toilet that a group of BotBots were swimming in.<ref>[https://transformers.hasbro.com/en-us/brands/botbots Official ''BotBots'' website]</ref> It's unclear if this was in the Toilet Troop's bathroom and if the BotBots he flushed were Toilet Troop members.

Shockwave's drones

[[File:ShockwaveDrone.jpg|thumb|right|300px|You will never survive my deadly robo-scorpions, technological terrors and er... well... uhh... my... bigger, more atomic versions of these things!]]

Perfect assistants for the immoral Decepticon mad scientist on the go, '''Shockwave's drones''' are multipurpose machines that help out [[Shockwave (Cyberverse)|their master]] in his laboratory. Keeping the lab clean, supplying equipment and tools, detecting snooping [[Autobot]]s, it's all in a day's work for these little guys, even if their co-creator is one of those blasted Autobots now.

==Fiction==
===''Cyberverse'' cartoon===
Shockwave and [[Wheeljack (Cyberverse)|Wheeljack]] created the drones as lab assistants, showing off their prototype at [[Maccadam's Old Oil House|Maccadam's]]. {{storylink|Maccadam's}} While Wheeljack still enjoyed their dancing, Shockwave was quick to grow out of it, finding the ability pointless and annoying. {{storylink|Parley}}

Shockwave had three drones attending him as he worked on activating [[Vector Sigma]]. As he spoke with [[Megatron (Cyberverse)|Megatron]] about his success, one of the drones spotted [[Bumblebee (Cyberverse)|Bumblebee]] listening in, raising the alarm and forcing the Autobot to flee as all three drones' cannons drew a bead on him. {{storylink|Megatron Is My Hero}} The drones helped Shockwave restore [[Shadow Striker (Cyberverse)|Shadow Striker]], gathering what was left of the Decepticon warrior and her Seeker guards. {{storylink|Shadowstriker (episode)|Shadowstriker}}

[[File:Shockwave's Little Friend (Cyberverse - Megatron Is My Hero).jpg|thumb|250px|left|Harima Research Academy is the place where their neurochips were made.]]
The drones could be seen in the background as Shockwave set his fake memory plan into action. {{storylink|Sabotage}} Several drones were on the [[Magnetic disruptor]] ship at the North Pole and gave [[Thundercracker (Cyberverse)|Thundercracker]] blank demanding stares, serving to shatter the Seeker's nerve. A good number of them were smashed by [[Grimlock (Cyberverse)|Grimlock]] as they tried to fight the intruder.

Unbeknownst to the Autobots, one of them survived the ship's destruction and managed to sneak onboard the cargo plane hijacked to carry Grimlock and Bumblebee. {{storylink|The Extinction Event}} It spied on the Autobots and served as a tracking beacon to the ''Ark''. {{storylink|Awaken Sleeping Giants}} The drone eventually returned to its master's side once the [[Decepticon fleet]] arrived. {{storylink|Eruption}}
[[File:Cyberverse - Battle for Cybertron Part 3 - Dronius Maximus.jpg|thumb|300px]]

A number of drones were seen on the Decepticon mission to hijack the moon. {{storylink|Bad Moon Rising}} Shockwave had them dance (at his reluctance) to satisfy Wheeljack during a peace talk, though he grew quick to turn them on the Autobots once a fight broke out. {{storylink|Parley}}

Once they got back to Cybertron, the Decepticons manufactured titanic versions of the drones to corral the Autobots. {{storylink|Battle For Cybertron III}} Shockwave sent several normal-sized drones to preoccupy Bumblebee while he dealt with [[Cheetor (Cyberverse)|Cheetor]], only to be destroyed by the scout.

Kickback (Energon)

{{disambig3|Kickback}}
:''Kickback is a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Transformers: Energon (franchise)|Energon]] portion of the [[Unicron Trilogy continuity family]].''

[[File:Kickback Energon.jpg|thumb|upright=1.2|]]
A member of the [[Destruction Team]], '''Kickback''' combines with his teammates to form the powerful [[Bruticus Maximus (Energon)|Bruticus Maximus]]. Had he not been overly close to [[Barricade (Energon)|his exploding team leader]], we might know more about his flipper-footed majesty.

==Fiction==
===''Energon'' cartoon===
Shortly after awakening from their long slumber, Bruticus Maximus and [[Constructicon Maximus]] were ordered by [[Megatron (Armada)|Galvatron]] to pursue the fleeing [[Superion Maximus]] after the Autobot attempted to attack the Decepticon leader. Both combiners separated into their individual components and gave chase. They later pledged their allegiance to Galvatron, believing him to be the future of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]. {{storylink|Wishes}}
[[File:Energon-Maximus-Assault.jpg|left|thumb|200px]]

When Six Shot pinpointed an Autobot signal on the planet's surface, Galvatron sent Constructicon Maximus and Bruticus Maximus out to investigate. The two combiners came upon Autobot refugees looking about the crashed ''Miranda II'' for survivors, and decided to have some fun by beating them up. [[Arcee (Energon)|Arcee]] and [[Kicker Jones|Kicker]] sped by to allow the Autobots to escape, and Bruticus Maximus split into Kickback and his other components to give them chase. They were unable to catch the pair, but came upon them again after the Omnicons had managed to clog up an energon pipeline, hindering the Decepticons' planetary defense grid. Bruticus Maximus assumed his combined form to gun them down, but was countered by the arrival of Optimus Prime and other Autobot reinforcements. {{storylink|Break Through}}

During a virtual training match between the Autobots and Decepticons, Kickback was part of [[Barricade (Energon)|Barricade]]'s Destruction Team, fighting the [[Air Team]] alongside the [[Construction Team]]. They combined into Bruticus Maximus to defeat Superion Maximus, only to be defeated in turn by [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Supreme]]. {{storylink|Distribution}}

Kickback and the other Destruction Team members eventually paid for their treachery during a final show down with the Air Team. Bruticus Maximus and [[Constructicon Maximus]] double teamed Superion Maximus, who held his own and destroyed Constructicon's spark before the Autobot was reduced to Storm Jet. However, the ghost of [[Dauntless Maximus|Superion's brother]] appeared, destroying [[Blackout (combiner)|Blackout]], giving Storm Jet the chance to procure Constructicons's dead limbs and recombine into Superion. Before Bruticus could recover, the Autobot pierced his spark causing an explosion which engulfed them all. {{storylink|Spark (episode)|Spark}}

:An [[e-HOBBY]] [[exclusive]] available only in a set with [[Clampdown (G1)|Clampdown]], ''[[Collector's Edition]]'' Deep Cover is a [[redeco]] of the [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#Toys|original Sideswipe toy]], based on the black version of the ''[[Diaclone]]'' toy [[Popular Earth vehicle alternate modes#Lamborghini Countach|New Countach LP500S]]. Several decals that were factory-applied on the original ''Diaclone'' version were replaced by painted [[tampograph]]s, like his headlamps. As a Japanese-only release, Deep Cover's spring-loaded missile launcher is fully operational; many ''Transformers'' released in Western markets had their springs weakened [[for safety reasons]].

:Pre-orders for the set closed on [[January 10]], 2003, with the toys shipping out in March.

:This mold is also used for [[Tigertrack#Toys|Tigertrack]] and—with added roof lights—Clampdown and [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Generation 1|Red Alert]].

**''Accessories:'' Missile launcher, missile, blaster
:A ''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' add-on to ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Earthrise]]'', Deep Cover is a redeco of ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Sideswipe]], transforming from robot to Cybertronian car and back. Deep Cover keeps a similar deco layout to [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#S26|"Covert Clone Sideswipe"]], but has royal blue plastic in place of Sideswipe's red, as well as police badges placed on his chest and the side of his vehicle mode. Deep Cover has multiple [[5 mm post|5 mm ports]] and 3 mm posts to accommodate the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]]/[[F.O.S.S.I.L. Technology]] weaponry and "Fire Blast" effects, respectively. As with [[Tigertrack#Generations|Tigertrack]], Deep Cover borrows Sideswipe's (non-firing) missile launcher and missile, and [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Red Alert]]'s gun, both of which are compatible with the C.O.M.B.A.T. System.

:A unique case amongst ''Generations Selects'' releases, the toy packaging features ''Earthrise''-style graphics and ''[[War for Cybertron: Kingdom|Kingdom]]''-styled plastic tray-less packaging. Much like previous [[2020]] Hasbro ''Selects'' product, Deep Cover is branded under the ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'', though was announced and released in 2021 alongside ''Kingdom''.

:Deep Cover was first listed for sale in mid-January 2021 by online retailer [https://roguetoys.com/products/transformers-war-for-cybertron-deepcover Rogue Toys], before they promptly removed the product's description page (tsk, tsk). The toy was properly revealed by [[Hasbro Pulse]] about two and a half weeks later on [https://www.instagram.com/p/CKzJIoBJ4FA/ TransformersTuesday], suggesting that Rogue Toys had suffered a street date slip-up. Oddly, the announcement stock photography has "VICTORY" written in [[Cybertronian language|Ancient Autobot]] in the background.

:Promoting the ''Kingdom'' chapter of the [[Netflix]] [[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' cartoon]], Deep Cover is a redeco of the above mold (without Red Alert's blaster) with the radical difference of swapping the black and blue parts of his deco.

==Notes==
[[File:WFC-Siege-Ep5-Red-Alert-and-Deep-Cover.jpg|thumb|250px|So undercover, we don't even know if that's him!]]
* Deep Cover's coloration is based on a [[pre-Transformer|pre-''Transformers'']] ''[[Diaclone]]'' coloration of the toy. This coloration was originally only available in the "Powered Convoy DX set", which also contained the "[[Delta Magnus#Toys|Powered Convoy]]" toy (pre-[[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Toys|Ultra Magnus]]) and an exclusive red redeco of the "F-1 Ligier JS-11" stock car (pre-[[Mirage (G1)/toys#Toys|Mirage]]).
* Deep Cover's shrinking ability puts him at about the same height as his ''Diaclone''-mold toy, making him one of the few Transformers to have a true 1:1 [[scale]] toy.
*The color scheme and layout of his second ''Generations'' toy are very similar to one of the [[generic]] Sideswipe-type Autobots in the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' cartoon, such as one that was being nursed by [[Red Alert (G1)|Red Alert]] while [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave's]] counter-[[Alpha Trion Protocols]] virus swept the ''[[Ark (G1)|Ark]]'' in [[Siege episode 5]] (right). It is unknown if this, or any generic with this model, is Deep Cover.

'''The Decepticons from the other dimension return to Cybertron, forcing the Autobots and Decepticons into a conflict that threatens to reignite the Great War all over again.'''

==Synopsis==
Life on peacetime [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] goes on, with [[Optimus Prime (Cyberverse)|Optimus Prime]] and his fellow leaders speaking at the dedication of the new [[Trypticon Plaza]]. However, the festivities are interrupted by the sudden appearance of a swirling vortex in the air. The flaming form of [[Astrotrain (Cyberverse)|Astrotrain]] emerges from the portal and crashes down in the plaza. As Optimus and the others rush to his side, the badly damaged Astrotrain gives the group a cryptic warning before succumbing to his wounds: something much worse than [[Megatron X (Cyberverse)|the other Megatron]] is coming.

Within [[Iaconus]], the leaders of both factions attempt to prepare for the invasion, though not knowing what's coming makes preparations difficult. The [[Dinobot (Cyberverse)|Dinobots]] are itching for a fight, but only succeed in annoying everyone they come across with their overenthusiasm. [[Wheeljack (Cyberverse)|Wheeljack]] and [[Sky-Byte (Cyberverse)|Sky-Byte]] raise the planetary shields as a precautionary measure, putting all of Cybertron on edge. However, it doesn't take long before the shield is broken, and a group of [[Decepticon supersoldier]]s teleport into the room—and immediately start beating the scrap out of each other. Confused, the others pull the fighters apart, and the most damaged among them takes the opportunity to finish off his aggressors, warning that everyone is in grave danger. Indeed, Optimus receives a transmission from [[Windblade (Cyberverse)|Windblade]], who confirms that more supersoldiers are appearing all over Cybertron, ruthlessly fighting one another. The damaged bot explains that his dimension's Megatron programmed them to be mindless soldiers that lived only for battle, but after his destruction, the supersoldiers slayed Astrotrain in retribution and now fight among themselves for leadership. While most of the supersoldiers are mindless and instinctive, the damaged one has evolved and given himself a name: [[Tarn (Cyberverse)|Tarn]]. Optimus insists they stop the conflict, hoping the rest can change like Tarn did, but the [[Decepticon]]s would rather see the invaders destroy each other. Thus, two plans are put into motion...

Wheeljack arms the [[Autobot]]s with various gadgets, intent on using them to pacify and disable the supersoldierss. The plan works well at first, with the devices managing to incapacitate the brawlers. However, the supersoldiers use their teleporters to free themselves from the traps before reemerging and beginning their street fight anew. With the plan deemed a failure, [[Soundwave (Cyberverse)|Soundwave]] decides it's time for the Decepticon approach. On his orders, the Decepticons open fire on their otherdimensional counterparts, but they prove impervious to their weapons. Even an attempt to drop a warhead on the supersoldiers is ineffective, as they simply teleport away from the blast. Optimus worries that they have run out of options, but Tarn offers a solution: the [[Cortex Helm]], a legendary relic that could be used to rewrite their programming and remove their need for dominance.

At Bumblebee's suggestion, he, Optimus, Soundwave, [[Shadow Striker (Cyberverse)|Shadow Striker]] and Tarn journey into the wilderness and find [[Thunderhowl (Cyberverse)|Thunderhowl]] to ask him about the Cortex Helm. Thunderhowl confirms it once belonged to his former master [[Onyx Prime]] and, with some persuasion, agrees to take them to its hiding place. The group travels by shuttle to a spot high above Cybertron, and are shocked when Thunderhowl orders them to land on the open air—even more so when they actually do so successfully. The ancient warrior places his sword in a hidden plinth to reveal the landmass on which they now stand: the [[Isle of Onyx Prime]]. As they traverse the isle, the group find themselves attacked by giant statues of [[Alpha Trion (Cyberverse)|Alpha Trion]]. Despite the statues' regenerative abilities, they are defeated when the group manages to force them over the edge, plummeting to the surface below. Venturing deeper in, the group nearly falls victim to the same fate when a walkway crumbles beneath them, barely managing to reach the other side in time.

At last, they reach the central chamber, sealed with a door that can only be unlocked by the [[Matrix of Leadership]]. As Prime does so, Tarn breaks away from the others and charges in, grabbing the Cortex Helm and placing it upon his head, much to everyone's shock. Tarn confirms he has removed the desire for dominance from his brethren's programming, but has instead replaced it with subservience to himself. Other supersoldiers appear and restrain the team, and Tarn announces that he will finish what Megatron couldn't, putting a permanent end to the Autobots. As Tarn issues his orders, supersoldiers all over the planet stop fighting and immediately turn their attention to the Autobots, opening fire.

With his machinations in motion, Tarn invites Soundwave and Shadow Striker to join his new regime, to which they reluctantly agree. Tarn then orders Shadow Striker to execute Bumblebee and Thunderhowl before departing with Optimus and Soundwave in tow. The three re-emerge in an empty [[Cube (sport)|Cube]] arena, and Tarn begins broadcasting to all of Cybertron. He announces himself as the new Decepticon leader, and that much like Megatron fought in the [[Gladiatorial combat|gladiator]] pits of old, Optimus will now have to fight a gauntlet of his supersoldiers for the right to challenge him. As Optimus begins his battle, Tarn declares that the [[Treaty of the Wall|peace treaty]] is now null and void, ordering the Decepticons to destroy any remaining Autobots. Some follow their new orders, while others like [[Dead End (Cyberverse)|Dead End]] and [[Wildwheel (Cyberverse)|Wildwheel]] can only bring themselves to watch. The Autobots attempt to fight back, but soon find themselves on the back foot and are forced to retreat. [[Hot Rod (Cyberverse)|Hot Rod]] sends coordinates to all the Autobots, ordering them to regroup there.

On the Isle of Onyx Prime, the supersoldiers hold Bumblebee and Thunderhowl over the precipice, waiting for Shadow Striker to finish them. Bumblebee chastises Shadow Striker for still holding onto her grudge against him, but she surprises him when she shoots the supersoldiers off the ledge instead. She orders the two to escape as she is confronted by another group of supersoldiers. In the arena, Optimus wins his first match, but Tarn begins sending increasing numbers of opponents to battle him at once. Elsewhere, Wheeljack, [[Arcee (Cyberverse)|Arcee]] and [[Clobber (Cyberverse)|Clobber]] find themselves cornered by a group of supersoldiers. Unable to watch his friend be hurt any longer, [[Lockdown (Cyberverse)|Lockdown]] steps in to help Clobber, giving them the opening they all need to get away. [[Jetfire (Cyberverse)|Jetfire]] finds himself under attack as well, but is saved by some timely intervention from [[Whirl (Cyberverse)|Whirl]], and they head to the rendezvous point.

Optimus's battle is beginning to take its toll on him, and though he attempts to reason with Tarn, pointing out how he has come to embody the sort of corrpution Megatron originally stood against, Tarn is unfazed and continues to throw more opponents at Optimus. Shadow Striker is brought before Tarn, who expresses disappointment at her decision to betray him. Shadow Striker berates Soundwave for serving under Tarn so easily, but Soundwave replies that he's simply following orders, just as he always did for [[Shockwave (Cyberverse)|Shockwave]]—and Shadow Striker at last realizes Soundwave's true intentions. Optimus tosses one of the Decepticons at Tarn, knockng him aside and giving Shadow Striker the opportunity to escape.

The Dinobots finally reach Hot Rod's coordinates in Cybertron's underworld, confident that the Decepticons will not find them there, and [[Repugnus (Cyberverse)|Repugnus]] leads them to where Hot Rod and the others are waiting. The group are all in agreement that they need to rescue Optimus, but Hot Rod points out they don't need to defeat Tarn's army; they just need to take the Cortex Helm so Tarn can't control them anymore. Wheeljack reveals they now have an advantage: while fleeing from the supersoldiers, he managed to pull a teleporter from one of their remains, and he should now be able to equip each Autobot with one of their own.

With six supersoldiers fighting him at once, Optimus is finally pushed to his limit and falls. Tarn is disappointed by Optimus's failure and prepares to put him out of his misery, but Windblade teleports in and blasts him away. She is followed in short order by Thunderhowl, [[Rack'n'Ruin (Cyberverse)|Rack'n'Ruin]] and Bumblebee, who knock the supersoldiers away and help Optimus to his feet. Tarn attempts to attack them, but they teleport out of the way before reappearing with an army of Autobots alongside them. Tarn isn't worried, though; not only are his troops stronger, but the Autobots now have to contend with the rest of the Decepticons, who have surrounded them. Tarn orders the Decepticons to attack, but is confused when they remain stationary. Shadow Striker emerges from the crowd and reveals that the Decepticons have unanimously decided the peace treaty still stands. Soundwave voices his agreement and prepares to fire on Tarn, but is restrained by the supersoldiers before being freed by [[Volcanicus (Cyberverse)|Volcanicus]]. Enraged, Tarn orders his troops to destroy them all, and the Autobots and Decepticons engage in a united assault on the enemy invaders.

The Cybertronians manage to fare well in the battle, working together with one another to take out many of the supersoldiers. As the two forces clash, Optimus and Hot Rod attempt to remove the Cortex Helm from Tarn's head, but he proves too powerful and manages to drive them off. Frustrated with the battle, Tarn summons even more of his forces, and they begin ripping the teleporters from the Autobots, quickly overwhelming all the combatants. With the opposition pinned down, Tarn mocks Optimus and controls his troops to charge their cannons, preparing to finish everyone off. Before he can fire, Hot Rod tackles him and attempts to pull the Cortex Helm off once more, but Tarn overpowers him and begins beating him senseless. Soundwave, having finally had enough, uses a sonic blast to free himself, and Tarn orders his troops to stand down so the two can have a final one-on-one confrontation.

[[Laserbeak (Cyberverse)|Laserbeak]] ejects and attacks Tarn's face, giving Soundwave the chance to approach Tarn and pin him down, finally pulling the Cortex Helm free. He places it upon his own head and uses its power, causing the supersoldiers to release their captives, but Tarn attacks him and pulls the Helm off. Moments before Tarn can don the helm once more, the severely damaged Soundwave uses the last of his strength to release a massive sonic blast that engulfs the arena and spreads for miles. As the light fades, the supersoldiers stand and drop their weapons. Seeing the Autobots' confusion, one of them reveals that the changes Soundwave made to their programming didn't just make them stop—Soundwave gave them the freedom to ''choose'' to stop. Everyone turns to congratulate Soundwave, only to find a smoldering crater where he and Tarn once stood, with no trace of either one left behind. The onlookers can only stare in silence as Laserbeak mourns the loss of his trusted friend.

[[File:Cyberverse-S4E2-PerfectDecepticon-RaiseAGlass.jpg|thumb|250px|''Raise a glass to freedom.'' ''Something they can never take away.'' ''No matter what they tell you…'']]
Later at [[Maccadam's Old Oil House|Maccadam's]], Autobots, Decepticons, and reformed supersoldiers alike have gathered to hold a wake for Soundwave. Hot Rod eulogizes his friend and shares fond memories, and Optimus leads the others in a toast for their fallen ally. As the wake continues, Optimus steps out for some air, later joined by Bumblebee, Hot Rod and Windblade. Optimus smiles, commenting that for once, everything is good, and Bumblebee admits that after millions of years of war, he doesn't know what to do with himself now that it's all over, a sentiment the others agree with. Optimus knows, though: with the war over, Cybertron doesn't need a Prime anymore, so he'll be stepping away from leadership to simply enjoy the newfound peace. However, given how they've proven themselves, he's more than confident that the other three will be able to lead in his stead—as will Shadow Striker, now accompanied by her new partner Laserbeak, who has joined them outside. The other Autobots join Optimus in a group hug, while a reluctant Shadow Striker merely stands to the side until getting pushed into the hug by the arriving Dinobots. The group laugh as they look forward to the future of Cybertron together. A future where, at long last...

==Notes==
===Continuity notes===
*This episode builds on the events of the Chapter Three finale episodes "[[Silent Strike]]" and "[[The Other One]]", in which Megatron X and his dimension-hopping army of supersoldiers attempted to invade. Those events ended with Astrotrain planning to leave the disabled Megatron X trapped within himself in [[unspace]], but...well, you can see how that worked out.
*One of the Decepticon generics claims the planetary shields are being raised because the [[Quintesson]]s have returned, having previously taken over the planet during the first half of the third season.
*An Autobot generic responds to the aforementioned claim, saying he heard from [[Red Five]] that the shields are protecting against [[Starscream (Cyberverse)|Starscream's]] [[ghost]]. Starscream perished during the climax of the aforementioned Quintesson invasion, back in "[[The End Of The Universe IV]]". Meanwhile, [[Red Five]] was the name given to a generic Autobot in "[[Escape From Earth]]".
*Perceptor compares the supersoldiers' brawl to [[Polyhex]] vs. [[Iacon Wreckers|Iacon City]], a [[Cube (sport)|Cube]] match depicted in the episode "[[Cube (episode)|Cube]]".
*Wheeljack arms the Autobots with the [[force shield blaster]]s and [[Mega Magnetizer]]s he created in "[[The Visitor]]", and the [[gravity modulator]]s he invented in "[[Secret Science]]".
*Optimus recognizes the Cube arena, as seen in the flashback of "[[Cube (episode)|Cube]]", while Tarn recognizes it as an arena Megatron rose to power, in the first flashback of "[[Megatron Is My Hero]]".
*When they are about to be executed by Shadow Striker, Bumblebee assumes she will go through with it due to her grudge from the events depicted in the flashback scenes of "[[Shadowstriker (episode)|Shadowstriker]]".
*Teletraan-X refers to Windblade as "not crew", as he did back in his earliest first season appearances.
*Soundwave finally acts against Tarn after he nearly kills Hot Rod; Hot Rod and Soundwave developed a sort of friendship during the third season.
*In Hot Rod's eulogy, he mentions when Soundwave ordered Clobber to destroy Hot Rod and her following attempt, in "[[The Prisoner]]".
*Optimus mentions he will finally enjoy himself, concluding his struggle to relax and have fun from "[[Party Down]]".

===Transformers references===
* While Starscream returning as a ghost is just a rumor here, he's actually done so in many past ''Transformers'' stories dating back to the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original cartoon]] episode "[[Starscream's Ghost]]".
* Locations shown on the war room monitor include [[Protihex]], [[Praxus]], [[Ky-Alexia|Alexia]], [[Kaon (polity)|Kaon]], North and South [[Iacon (polity)|Iacon]], North and South [[Croaton (Cyberverse)|Croaton]], and [[Nova Cronum|Cronum]].
* At one point, the supersoliders are using sniper rifles resembling [[Vos (DJD)|Vos]].
* One last [[The Transformers: The Movie|"Soundwave Superior"]] for the road.

===Real-world references===
*When the supersoldiers first invade Cybertron and fight each other, a blue Autobot generic shouts "Game over, man!" in reference to the movie ''Aliens''.

===Other trivia===
*Originally scheduled for a November 21st premiere on [[Netflix]], the episode was pushed back a month to December 22. However, the episode ended up airing well before then on November 7 via Canadian TV network Teletoon, followed by a YouTube release two weeks later.
*The Decepticon supersoldiers' melee weapons are red and purple recolors of a few of the weapons in [[Iaconus]]'s training rooms in "[[The Alliance]]", as well as Shadow Striker's daggers.
*This episode marks the only instance in which we see Cosmos transform into her UFO alternate mode.
*Wheeljack addresses Ruin by name individually while he's handing out weapons, thus revealing that he's the one on Rack'n'Ruin's right, with the monocle.

===Animation and technical errors===
*When Bumblebee and Shadow Striker drive across the crumbling walkway in the Isle of Onyx Prime, Bee is in his Earth sports car mode as opposed to his Cybertronian vehicle mode. In the same scene, Shadow Striker hovers upward in car mode, much like Bumblebee's Cybertronian vehicle mode would.
*Before entering through the door to the temple, Optimus' arms are not properly out of his torso.
*Cosmos has the Autobot insignia visible on her alternate mode, but not her robot mode
*As in the previous episode, Teletraan-X is misspelled as "Teletran X" in the credits.

The notes identify Rack as the one with the monocle, making him the one on their right (our left). In [[The Perfect Decepticon]], though, Wheeljack addresses the right twin specifically as Ruin when he apologizes after only giving the left twin a weapon.

For such an introspective warrior, defense specialist [[Hot House (Micromaster)|Hot House]] packs an amazing amount of weaponry in his '''fire station''', the '''Hot House'''. The mobile base converts from a garage and repair station into a treaded tank with a battering ram, missiles, rockets, and a cannon that's much bigger than Hot House himself.

When the [[Nine Great Demon Generals|Decepticon Generals]] invaded [[Micro|Zone]], the Fire Base was a crucial part of Zone Base's absolutely useless defenses. It transformed from its innocuous fire station form into a massive artillery platform and let the Decepticons have it with volley after volley of completely and utterly pointless firepower. No matter how much firing was done, no actual damage was done to the Decepticons, who managed to make off with a sample of [[Energon Z]], taken from [[Zone Base]] itself. {{storylink|Fight!

: Rebranded with the name of the Fire Station's operator, ''[[Generations Selects (toyline)|Generations Selects]]'' Hot House is a redeco of ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Earthrise]]'' [[Airwave (facility)#Generations|Airwave]]. Hot House's color layout is largely identical to Airwave's, but they only retain Airwave's orange plastic and dark gray paint, and some areas are painted white. Via [[partformer|part-forming]], they can turn into either a treaded aircraft carrier or a gun embankment, both loosely based on the original Micromaster station. It can also transform into an airbase with tiny runways as a carry-over from Airwave.

:Several of their pieces have [[A.I.R. Lock System]] connection points, which allow many different building configurations to link up with other toys in the line to form larger fortifications. Their parts can also be used to augment other figures as armor and add-on weapons, similar to the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System|Weaponizers]] of the prior ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' toyline. Hot House features an official combination with [[Tigertrack#Generations|Tigertrack]], unlike Airwave, who lacks an official armor mode in their instructions.

: Amusingly, Hot House's stock photos have the 'Fire Station' sign upside down in base mode. This error is not present in the figures released at retail.

: This mold was also used to make ''Earthrise'' [[Overair (facility)#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Overair]].

==Color homage==
I think Stormshot's color deco had some similarities to Armada Red Alert. [[User:FigureGunplaFan|FigureGunplaFan]] ([[User talk:FigureGunplaFan|talk]]) 13:08, 8 March 2017 (EST)
:Red, blue, and white is pretty much the most common color combo in America and the layouts aren't similar at all. [[User:Saix|Saix]] ([[User talk:Saix|talk]]) 13:11, 8 March 2017 (EST)

== Lower peghole ==

I changed the explanation of what the lower peghole on the small blaster is for back to what it originally was (large blaster upside down and plugged into the lower peghole, then into the nosecone using the long handle), on the grounds that the different configuration described (large blaster sideways and plugged into the upper peghole, then into the nosecone using the short handle) doesn't actually use the lower peghole and therefore cannot possibly be what the lower peghole is for.

I guess there's a possibility that the premise is just wrong to begin with and the lower peghole actually serves no purpose whatsoever, but the lower peghole configuration also has the small blaster and its little handle-wheel centered, and rather than anything that looks like "clearance issues," it has the tab on the flip-down landing gear fit into the gap on the top of the small blaster in a very intentional-looking way (the upper peghole version has the small blaster noticeably lower and off-center to starboard), so I feel pretty confident here. --[[User:Andrusi|Andrusi]] ([[User talk:Andrusi|talk]]) 16:37, 26 December 2020 (EST)

: The two blasters included are designed to combine together to form a larger weapon, with the smaller of the two pegging into the back of the larger one. Not documented in the instructions, the second peg hole on the smaller blaster is meant to allow for an alternate means of storage for the weapons in vehicle mode. Turning the larger blaster upside-down and plugging it into the bottom peg hole allows for the combined weapon to be plugged under the nosecone of the jet, with the handle of the smaller blaster serving as landing gear.

Andrusi: /* Why not Discharge? Why Discharge? */ new section

== Why not Discharge? ''Why'' Discharge? ==

Removed:

:Though the gang-molded ''Siege'' Stakeout and [[Red Hot#Generations|Red Heat]] share a team affiliation in Generation 1 lore, Road-Police is instead gang-molded with Wheel Blaze. The reasoning for this has not been specified but can probably be attributed to Road-Police's classic fire truck teammate [[Discharge (OC)|Discharge]] not having a name well-suited for children's toys.

The Micromaster 10-pack does not have any sort of pattern of combination partners being previously associated characters--all indications are that they just came up with individual identities for each figure, limited only by making factions match up. (In particular, Nightflight ''also'' has an obvious potential partner--Tailwind, the missing fourth member of the Air Strike Patrol--but got partnered with Slyhopper instead.) If we say for the sake of argument that there's some need to explain why the Rescue Patrol redecoes specifically aren't past teammates, it's equally likely that they started from the idea of redecoing Red Heat into Wheel Blaze and then chose Road-Police as his partner because Stakeout isn't a firetruck. (And even if we further assume that Hasbro specifically started from Road-Police, it's hard to see Discharge's name as an issue for the same multipack that gave us "Irontread" and "Slyhopper"--rather, if I had to guess at a culprit in that scenario, I'd point at the fact that Red Heat and Discharge have nearly identical color schemes.) --[[User:Andrusi|Andrusi]] ([[User talk:Andrusi|talk]]) 12:49, 11 December 2020 (EST)

'''Road Police''' (ロードポリス ''Rōdo Porisu'', aka '''Road-Police''') is the warm-[[spark]]ed commander of the [[Sixturbo|Turbo Team]], and also something of a handgun aficionado. He collects [[human]] personal firearms, even though they're way too small for him to use them himself, which is frustrating. He is a quick draw and an expert marksman, at least at close range. [[Circuit (OC)|Circuit]] gets on his nerves.

Road Police was among the [[Cyberdroid]]s who left [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]] and came to [[Earth]] in search for [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]] and the [[Matrix of Leadership|Matrix]].

The virus turned him into a [[Decepticon]], and he went about causing random destruction with his teammates. [[Sireen]] tricked Road Police and the others into combining with him to form [[Sixturbo]], then restored them all to normal with an antivirus program. {{storylink|Enter the Urban Disaster Relief Specialists!!}}

Later, he managed to catch [[Missile Run]] by surprise, but unfortunately the Decepticon had brought the rest of his team along and it ended up becoming a fight between Sixturbo and [[Sixwing]]. {{storylink|Enter the Decepticon Sixwing!!}}

Later still, Road Police and Glide's investigation of a mysterious Decepticon attack led to the discovery of [[Decepticon Sixbuilder]]. {{storylink|Sixbuilder the Ill-Fated Warrior!?}}

[[File:BigGame Q-Drones.jpg|thumb|upright=1.67|"Be polite. Be efficient. Have a plan to kill everyone you meet."]]
To make his life easier, [[Quint Quarry]] has an army of '''Q-Drones''' at his beck and call. These hovering drones possess an array of technology including the ability to produce energy fields, project holograms, act as a mobile surveillance network, fire bolas, and record and broadcast video.

==Fiction==
===''Rescue Bots'' cartoon===
{{voiceactor|[[Jim Cummings]] (English)}}
Once Quarry had captured [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]] for use as prey on [[Quarry Safariland]], three Q-Drones dropped the Autobot leader outside the island's compound. The Q-Drones later detected the [[Griffin Rock]] rescue team coming to retrieve Optimus, and Quarry set the drones to work keeping the intruders busy, though [[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]] was able to short-circuit one of them with his water jets. Though he failed to capture Optimus, Quarry tried to leave the island with the three Rescue Bots he had managed to secure, however the Q-Drones proved unable to slow Optimus down, and they were all blasted by Prime's sonic attack before Quarry himself was arrested. Luckily for him, one lone Q-Drone had survived, and Quarry used it to escape. {{storylink|Big Game}}

When testing the robot dinosaurs [[Ezra Greene|Doc Greene]] had supplied him with, Quarry set them against a bunch of Q-Drones. They performed satisfactorily, so Quarry had a large Amber Drone restrain them and take them to the dock to be sent for sale. The Amber Drone and other Q-Drones were wrecked when [[Blades (RB)|Blades]] freed the Rescue Bots. {{storylink|Quarry's Quarry}}

Quarry's brother [[Thurston Chumley|Thurston]] later stole several of the Q-Drones to aid in capturing new creatures for his own menagerie, including the lion [[Whiskers]]. However, the Rescue Bots set a trap by disguising themselves as Dinobots, allowing the Q-Drones to capture them and them take them to Chumley's lair. Chumley attempted to use the drones to keep them captive, but they were ultimately freed and managed to contain Chumley. At the same time, Quarry used some of his own Q-Drones to escape from his imprisonment. {{storylink|Enemy of My Enemy (RB)|Enemy of My Enemy}}

I think IDW Galvatronus should get it's own page. He's not a Cyclonus forming a combiner with mind-controlled limbs, he's a completely new combiner character.

Tarn the character is a reference to Tarn the location, but they don't share a page. Boat Manta Ray and beast Manta Ray have separate pages, because they're different characters. BW Mangaboss and BWII Magnaboss have their own pages, as they're different characters. The five billion different Arks in IDW each have their own pages. Comic Galvatron has absolutely no direct connection to toy Galvatronus, and toy Galvatronus isn't a toy of comic Galvatronus.

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''09'''

: Originally a ''[[Diaclone]]'' "Police Car Fairlady Z",<ref>Here the letter Z is pronounced "zed" (ゼット) as English speakers outside the USA would expect.</ref> Prowl was one of the original assortment of [[Autobot Cars]] released in 1984. He transforms into a {{w|Nissan 280ZX|Datsun 280ZX Turbo}} sports car (known in Japan as a "Fairlady Z") decorated in police car livery; the original figure featured the word "Diaclone" on the police badges that decorate his shoulders and chest, but these were naturally removed for the Transformers version of the toy. He is armed in robot mode with a silver-chromed hand-held [[Acid pellet|acid pellet gun]], and two shoulder-mounted missile launchers. The spring-loaded firing mechanism for these launchers was disabled by Hasbro, but remained intact on the [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] release of the figure.

:In 1985, a heat-activated [[rubsign]] was added to the front of Prowl's hood. That same year, his Mexican release featured a more startling variation: this release of the figure rendered his helmet, arms, and boots black, plus his "POLICE" decals became "POLICIA". There was also a widely available running change [[variant]] (or just factory error) that left out the black paint on his car hood.

:Prowl's toy has been [[Generation 1 reissues|reissued]] as part of the ''[[Classics (Europe)|Classic Heroes]]'' line in 1990, ''[[The Transformers Collection]]'' in 2002, and the ''[[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series]]'' in 2003. See below for individual entries on these releases.

**''Accessories:'' Turbo Cycle, small cannon, 2 missiles, 2 engine intakes (left & right), shield/gas tank cover

: [[Action Master]] Prowl is a non-transforming action figure whose appearance is styled after his cartoon model, with a few toy-based liberties taken. Like all Action Masters, he can interact with all the line's vehicles and weapons; as part of the "Action Blasters Vehicles" assortment, Prowl came packaged with the [[Turbo Cycle (G1)|Turbo Cycle]], which transforms from motorcycle to a gun emplacement. An undocumented feature of the Turbo Cycle is that the lower front cowling assembly can be pegged into the screw hole on Prowl's back, allowing him to somewhat mimic the original Prowl figure's door-wing appearance.

:The original Prowl toy was first reissued in Europe alongside several other early Transformers, as part of the "[[Classics (Europe)|Classic Heroes]]" range. He is not entirely identical to the original, however: for reasons unknown, the ''Classics'' release of Prowl features the original ''Diaclone'' labels on his chest and shoulders, with the word "Diaclone" on his police badges, while his forehead crest, previously a pair of stickers, is now painted.

: Sharing a mold with ''[[Machine Wars: Transformers|Machine Wars]]'' [[Mirage (G1)/toys#Machine Wars|Mirage]], Prowl transforms into a Penske PC-18 Indycar, and converts to robot mode with a spring-loaded, one-step transformation. His rifle-halves store in his legs in car mode. He—and the entire ''Machine Wars'' line—was available only at Kay-Bee stores.

: Prowl's usual function is "strategist", but, in an ironic twist, in this first non-police car form he is described as "chief of security".

: This mold was also used to make ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Skid-Z (RID)#Toys|Skid-Z]] and [[repurposing|repurposed]] as a [[Prowl (MW)|clone of Prowl]] and as [[Prowl drone|drone clones of Prowl]].

:Takara's first reissue of Prowl was the second installment in their ''[[The Transformers Collection|Transformers Collection]]'' line of reissues, and was mostly identical to the original figure, save for a few small differences: the text on his hip stickers is changed to "2002 08" from the original's "2800 ZP", his rubsign is relocated from its original obtrusive spot at the front of his hood to just below his windshield (winding up on the back of his head in robot mode), and like the ''Classic Heroes'' version, his forehead crest is painted. As with the previous Takara release of the figure, his missile launchers are functional.

*'''Prowl''' (2003/2006)
**''Accessories:'' "Acid pellet gun", left & right missile launchers, 3 "wire-guided missiles"
:In 2003, Hasbro released their own reissue of the original Prowl toy as part of their [[Toys"R"Us]] [[exclusive]] ''[[The Transformers: Generation One Commemorative Series|Commemorative Series IV]]'' that was available in the United States, Canada, and Australia. This version of Prowl featured all the modifications made to the original toy for Takara's ''Transformers Collection'', and a few more besides. Like his mold-mate Bluestreak, released in the previous wave, Prowl's gun and missiles are cast in unchromed black plastic, and his missile launchers are once again disabled, in lieu of enlarging the missiles to the disproportionate length required [[for safety reasons]] (as was done for several other Commemorative figures). Where his original toy's launchers merely had their springs removed, leaving their trigger mechanisms intact to hold the missiles in place, this figure actually recasts the launchers as solid pieces with no triggers, into which the missiles are simply popped.

:In 2006, three years after the US release and long after the ''Commemorative Series'' had been discontinued by Toys"R"Us in America, Prowl and several other figures were released as Toys"R"Us exclusives in the United Kingdom. Unlike previous UK releases of ''Commemorative Series'' figures, the packaging for this batch was no longer [[multilingual packaging|multilingual]], but in English only. Despite this, the packaging was ''not'' identical to the previous US version; it lacked the "Commemorative Series", "classic re-issue", and "choking hazard" safety warning labels and all [[trademark]] ™ and ® markings, and moved the "Ages 5+" recommendation to a new position.

: Released in Wave 2 of ''[[Smallest Transforming Transformers]]'', this Prowl is the smallest possible transforming toy based upon the original Prowl toy. He faithfully reproduces the transformation sequence for the most part, but due to parts-cost limitations, he has little articulation, his legs cannot separate and his wheels do not roll.

: This mold was also used to make the ''Smallest Transforming Transformers'' version of [[Bluestreak (G1)/toys|Bluestreak]].

*'''Prowl''' (Alternator, 2005/2006)
**''Alternator ID number:'' '''16'''
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''BT-15'''
**''Accessories:'' Engine/gun, traffic direction baton aka "Blight Stick"

: ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' Prowl transforms into a fully-licensed 1:24-scale {{w|Acura RSX}} with police lights, opening doors, hood and trunk. His engine becomes a (non-firing) gun, while a clear-plastic nightstick is hidden under his car mode rear section. He was among the last of the "red box" Alternators, but was included in new "white box" assortments in 2006. The "white box" version of Prowl has additional Acura logos on the rear of the car that the "red box" version did not have.

: For his standard Japanese ''Binaltech'' release, Prowl got a different vehicle mode deco based on a real Japanese police car (the [[Hasbro]] version's deco being based more on the original [[The Transformers (toyline)|Generation 1 toy]]), a different spoiler mold, "Type R" rims compared to the ''Alternators'' version's "Type S" rims, right-side steering, a Japanese police cherry blossom emblem instead of an Acura logo, and gray plastic instead of stony-blue. He was also labeled as a "Honda Integra Type-R" on the packaging, the model's make in Japan.

: Multiple reports suggest that at least the ''Binaltech'' version suffers from a [[design flaw]]: The wing mirrors are simply ''glued'' onto the doors for whatever reason, and the glue is not particularly strong. Trying to open a door by pulling on the mirror could likely result in the mirror snapping off.

: At [[OTFCC 2004]], Hasbro stated that there was no Prowl ''Alternators'' toy in the works, but some other emergency vehicle (which got a chorus of boos). Considering the development schedule of ''Transformers'' toys, this was most likely referring to the fact that the Acura RSX sculpt was originally intended to be [[Red Alert (G1)/toys|Red Alert]], with a different head sculpt. Eventually, however, it was decided to release the toy as Prowl instead, even though the Subaru Impreza sculpt's robot mode had more resemblance to Generation 1 Prowl and the Acura RSX sculpt's robot mode had more resemblance to Generation 1 Red Alert. [[Control drawing]]s of the figure with the originally intended Red Alert head sculpt can be found in the Japanese ''[[Transformers Collection 2007]]'' book, among other places.

: Like [[Jazz (G1)/toys|Meister]], Prowl got two different ''Binaltech'' decos released in equal numbers. The second version, known as Vivid Blue Pearl Prowl, is a civilian version with no police lights, a mostly blue interior, a Honda logo (instead of the cherry blossom emblem) on the grill, and a solid blue car shell. His robot mode parts remained mostly the same color, however.

: This mold (the Japanese blue Prowl [[variant]], combined with parts from American police Prowl) was used to make ''Alternators'' [[Camshaft (G1)|Autobot Camshaft]]. This toy was also [[repurposing|repurposed]] as [[Prowl 2]].

The only notable difference from the Hasbro version was the "Satellite Patrol" (spelled "satillite" in official preview photos) markings on his doors. It is unknown if this toy was ever actually released, however, as Takara changed owners around the same time.

His gun hides as his car mode's tailpipe. Originally only available at Kay-Bee stores in packaging with no sub-line markings, his entire assortment was later repackaged under the ''Universe'' banner and sold through "dollar store" chains like Family Dollar.

*'''Prowl''' (Deluxe Class, 2008)
**''Series'': '''Classic Series'''
**''Accessories'': Gun

: ''[[Transformers: Universe (2008 toyline)|Universe]]'' Prowl transforms into a modified {{w|Nissan 350Z}} similarly to Prowl's appearance in [[IDW Publishing]]'s [[2005 IDW continuity|Generation 1 comics]]. Like previous Generation 1 Prowl toys, his paint job is based upon that of a Japanese police car. The [[prototype]] and pre-production versions of Prowl featured a traditional American-style rectangular light bar, but the production toy features a swept-back modern light bar.

: Many buyers have reported that after repeated handling of the toy, the paint on the pieces of Prowl molded from translucent plastic (his doors, his roof, the sides of his hood and front bumper) quickly becomes sticky to the touch and begins to smear and rub off. Presumably, this owes something to the plastic and paint failing to bond properly, although what allowed the toy to leave factories with this flaw undetected is unknown. Sticky paint has not been reported on ''every'' Prowl; there is some suggestion that temperature and humidity play a role in whether or not it occurs. It has been suggested that the problem only affects the first run of Prowl figures, but sticky figures have been purchased at retail when the line was launched in Europe just over a month after its American debut. Also, on a lot of the UK release toys, all the pieces that are molded white plastic have a very faint pink tinge.

: This mold was redecoed for ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Streetwise (G1)#Timelines|Streetstar]] and retooled to make ''Universe'' [[Bluestreak (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Silverstreak]] and [[Smokescreen (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Smokescreen]] and ''Timelines'' [[Rapido#Timelines|Rapido]]. The lightbar was also used for ''Universe'' [[Ratchet (G1)/toys#Universe (2008)|Ratchet]] and ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' [[Red Alert (G1)/toys#Generations|Red Alert]]. This toy also served as the model for the non-toy ''Shattered Glass'' incarnation of [[Prowl (SG)|Prowl]].

: The Japanese ''[[Henkei! Henkei! Transformers (toyline)|Henkei!

He also features [[Vacuum metallizing|vacuum-metallized]] silver parts such as his gun, Acid Blasters and his vehicle mode spoiler. Universe Prowl's orange Autobot symbol was changed to the more standard red for the Henkei release.

Initially canceled due to the end of the Titanium Series line, Hasbro eventually released this figure as a Toys "R" Us [[exclusive]] in the fall of 2008.

: The vehicle mode as pictured on the packaging for this toy contains two transformation errors (compared to the instructions). His toes (sticking up at the rear of the vehicle) should be folded back, revealing small red and blue emergency lights. Also, the left and right sides of the vehicle should be slid outwards, turning them into nacelles rather than integral parts of the main body.

*'''Prowl''' ([[September 26]], [[2013]])
**''Japanese ID number'': '''MP-17'''
**''Accessories:'' Semi-automatic Rifle, missile launcher (Amazon.co.jp only)

: ''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Prowl transforms into a licensed Nissan Fairlady 280Z-T. As with other figures in the ''Masterpiece'' line, he is intended to be an accurate representation of his [[Character model|cartoon model]], and even features an extensive glossy white and black [[Paint operation|paint]] scheme. Roughly as tall as a [[Size class|Voyager Class]] figure, he is also in [[scale]] with [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#mp10|MP-10 Optimus Prime]], and can fit inside [[Combat Deck (G1)#mp10|Prime's trailer]] in vehicle mode. In contrast to previous larger entries in this line, Prowl lacks [[die-cast]] parts, and his tires are cast in hard, non-rubberized plastic. There are some issues concerning aligning the car's roof onto the body of the figure. In order to properly attach the back/roof top of the mold, the mid chest panel located in front of the torso must be tilted slightly forward and attached to the small indentation under the figure's "car hood". This will allow the back frame to straighten and get the two pegs on the windshield to lock into the two slots at the back of the car hood.

: For accessories, he comes with his rifle, which can be held with his hands, or can mount onto a peg-hole on the back of his light-bar via the separate peg on its jointed handle. He also comes with a pair of built-in shoulder cannons, based on Bluestreak's cartoon character model's cannons, that can be deployed in robot mode. Prowl's [[instructions]] even feature a screencap from the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|cartoon]] that depicts Prowl with the launchers; however, that is actually an [[animation error]] from [[More than Meets the Eye, Part 1|the very first episode]] that has Bluestreak (with his very distinctive head design) colored as Prowl.

: If purchased in Japan through [[Amazon (website)|Amazon.com]], one additionally gets a single non-firing toy-accurate missile launcher accessory, which can cover and replace either of his shoulder cannons, as well as tab onto the rear sides of his vehicle mode. If purchased in other Asian markets outside of Japan, a [[collector coin]] is included instead of or in addition to the launcher. The coin itself is star-shaped, and comes in a package shaped like a police badge.

: This mold was redecoed and retooled each time into [[Bluestreak (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|MP-18 Streak]] and [[Smokescreen (G1)/toys#Masterpiece|MP-19 Smokescreen]]. Streak and Prowl were to be released simultaneously, but Prowl was pushed back one month and Streak two months to meet demand.

*'''Prowl''' (Deluxe Class, 2015)
**''Accessories:'' "acid core" blaster, dual "missile launcher" gun/fist/foot

:Part of the fourth wave of ''[[Combiner Wars (toyline)|Combiner Wars]]'' Deluxe class toys, Prowl is a [[retool]] of [[Streetwise (G1)#Generations|Protectobot Streetwise]] sporting a new head. Being a ''Combiner Wars'' figure, he is able to form either an arm or leg for any ''Combiner Wars''-style Voyager Class figure or into one of [[Godbomber#Legends|''Legends'' Godbomber's]] legs but is, of course, was intended to combine to form [[Optimus Maximus (G1)#Generations|Optimus Maximus]]. He is also officially associated with [[Betatron#Toys|Betatron]] and [[Magnaboss (BW)#Generations|Magnaboss]]. A sticker sheet was sold at [[BotCon 2016]] to enhance Prowl's resemblance to the [[#Beast Wars|original ''Beast Wars'' figure]]. Unlike Streetwise, the pegs on Prowl's legs seem to have signs of mold degradation, as the legs/vehicle rear had a small gap while they're attached together.

:Prowl comes packaged with the comic book "[[Onyx Interface Part Three: ONoffON]]". In Canada, Latin America, and Europe, he was available in different types of [[multilingual packaging]] including a character card featuring his comic book cover/[[package art]] instead. He and the last three waves of ''Combiner Wars'' Deluxe and Voyager figures later showed up at TJ Maxx in the U.S. at reduced prices with the collector card.

:This mold was originally heavily retooled from [[Dead End (G1)#Combiner Wars|Dead End]], was [[redeco]]ed as [[Smokescreen (G1)/toys#Generations|Smokescreen]], and was differently retooled as [[Dust Up#Generations|Dust Up]].

====Cyber Series====
[[File:TF-Cyber-Battalion-Prowl.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Big and simple prick.]]
*'''Prowl''' (Cyber Battalion, [[2017]])
:Released in part of a second wave of [[Transformers: Generations#PrimeWarsTrilogyAsian|Generations: Cyber Series]] Cyber Battalion figures, Prowl is a new roughly voyager-sized mold and changes from police car to robot and back in a few easy steps. He has a chunkier design and is intended for a younger audience, but despite that he has an excellent range of poseability. His vehicle mode appears to be inspired by the deluxe version from ''Universe''. This figure was sold in the United States at Walgreens stores after being available in Latin American and Asian markets.

:The transformation seems to partially be based of the ''Reveal the Shield'' Legends figure. This figure was retooled into ''Cyber Series'' [[Sideswipe (G1)/toys#Cyber Series|Sideswipe]].

**''Japanese ID number'': '''SG-23'''
**''Japanese release date'': '''[[May 31]], 2019'''
**''Accessories'': Blaster, light bar (combine to form "W-45 Acid Pellet Strikeblaster")
:Part of the second wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Siege|Siege]]'' Deluxe Class figures, Prowl is a new mold, transforming from robot that is partially inspired by his [[Prowl (G1)/toys#Alternators|''Alternators'' toy]] into a Cybertronian police car. He includes a gun compatible with the [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]], as well as a detachable light bar. They can combine to form the "W-45 Acid Pellet Strikeblaster," as a blaster or an axe that he cannot actually hold like an axe. He also features multiple hardpoints to accommodate "Fire Blasts" from the [[Battle Master]]s assortment, which can be used to simulate blaster fire or explosions. Unlike most ''Siege'' figures, Prowl is basically spotless, with no battle damage paint applications anywhere on his body. Prowl is also noticeably smaller than most Deluxe scale figures in both modes, only just barely bigger than the original Scout size class.

:His car doors read "Police" in [[Alphabet#Autobot script|Autobot script]].

:This mold was retooled as ''Siege'' [[Barricade (IDW)#Toys|Barricade]], [[Smokescreen (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Smokescreen]], and [[Bluestreak (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Siege|Bluestreak]]. According to Smokescreen's [[Hasbro Pulse]] page, Prowl is a [[Praxus|Praxien]] character to add to the "Praxus-native collection," along with the aforementioned Smokescreen and Barricade.

Prowl's transformation scheme shares many similarities to his ''Siege'' counterpart, but uses completely new parts. Prowl comes with a single blaster and the same lightbar the ''Siege'' figure came with, but, like the aforementioned figure, he does not include shoulder cannon accessories.

In addition, the shoulder badge from the [[#The Transformers|Generation 1 toy]] is also added on the hood.

*'''Prowl and Laserbeak''' (2009)

==Notes==
*Prowl's ''[[Diaclone]]'' predecessor also came with additional, optional stickers that would identify him as being part of the police forces from existing Japanese cities, namely Tokyo, Sapporo, Sendai, Osaka, and Fukuoka. The original ''Transformers'' instruction booklet shows a visible ''Diaclone'' label sheet, complete with these optional stickers, which did not make it to the final product.
*''Machine Wars'' Prowl's card-art is actually an altered version of the art for the ''[[Transformers: Generation 2 (toyline)|Generation 2]]'' [[Laser Rod]] [[Jolt (G2)#Generation 2|Jolt]].
