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

==''Transformers'' (2007)==
As a tribute to his immense popularity, Optimus Prime is the only ''Movie'' Transformer with a toy in every regular category (Legend, Fast Action, Deluxe, Voyager, and Leader).

===Legends Class toys===

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Legends, 2007)
**''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Optimus Prime'''

: Legends class Optimus Prime is an ''extremely'' simplified toy of the extremely complex movie design. As such, he features numerous unavoidable inaccuracies, such as not transforming or even looking very much like the original design or the larger toy versions in [[robot mode]]. However, proportionally Legends class Optimus Prime is not far off from the real truck and the Leader class toy's [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]], aside from missing a smokestack on the driver's side. He is articulated at the shoulders and upper legs via [[ball joint]]s. His hands are designed to hold 3mm-compatible weapons.

:The toy was also later released as part of the blind-packed EZ Collection lineup, distributed via TakaraTomy's subsidiary Subarudo.

: The previously-released Legends Class Optimus Prime toy is redecoed to match the Leader class Nightwatch Optimus Prime deco. He comes with a predominantly black and silver redeco of [[Starscream (Movie)/toys#Allspark2pack|Starscream]]. The stock photo for his robot mode is mistransformed: his body is not collapsed down to the waist.

:In Asia, at least some units (often separated from Starscream) got dumped to Hobby Shop dealers and were sold at a lower price.

:Based upon the "[[Protoform]]" (Cybertronian) appearances of the Transformers in the movie, Protoform Optimus Prime transforms into his "entry" mode. This mode somewhat resembles a cybertronic truck, with false wheels sculpted onto the sides, and Optimus Prime's windows in front. A flame decoration piece fits to the back of the "vehicle", creating the illusion of a flaming comet's tail. The bottom of the vehicle has small wheels to roll the toy across smooth surfaces. Oddly, it has NO [[Automorph Technology|automorph]] gimmick at all, a feature most main-line figures have. He has excellent articulation due to his many ball joints, and is armed with a rifle. The flame attachment can fit onto the end of the (non-firing) gun barrel.

:Some packaging variants of this figure (perhaps a Wal-Mart exclusive) included a free movie poster depicting a Cybertronian eye overlooking Earth, with an added sticker to the outer plastic bubble saying "Exclusive movie poster!". It is more of a preview of upcoming figures.

:Aaron Archer designed this toy in a single day; it was the last toy he personally worked on. He prefers [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#TLK-Protoform|the redeco from ''The Last Knight'']].<ref>{{citesocial|quote=Because of a late change in the #transformersmovie line, I had to design this toy in one day back in 2006.

*'''Protoform Optimus Prime Fusion Cluster Edition''' (C3xHobby Convention exclusive Deluxe, Japan 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Gun, missile, flame attachment

:An extensive redeco of the Protoform Optimus Prime mold that was exclusively available at the Japanese C3xHobby Convention in August of 2007, and later offered by [[e-HOBBY]] in limited quantities. Most of the body is made out of transparent turquoise plastic in order to mimic its frozen state in the "coldness" of space, while orange paint is used on the front end of the "entry" mode, mimicking the heat effects of sudden atmospheric entry. The flame attachment is made out of clear ''blue'' plastic, with the tail end being covered in ''gold'' paint.

{{toydesigner|[[Eric Siebenaler]] (Hasbro)}}

: Released in the third wave of [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|''Transformers'']] Voyager Class figures, Optimus Prime transforms into an amalgamation of the Kenworth W900 and the Peterbilt 379, making this toy fairly inaccurate to the actual vehicle Optimus Prime turned into on-screen. His driver cabin now features a small interior with an opening driver-side door with a non-removable [[Peter Cullen|cowboy-hat-bedecked driver figurine]] that flips out of the seat when the driver's side door is opened.

: Optimus Prime is armed with two large rifles formed out of a combination of both smokestacks and fuel tanks. These rifles peg onto his lower arms with grips for his open hands. The under-slung fuel tanks can fire spring-loaded projectiles. In vehicle mode, both smokestack rifles can be deployed as twin cannons, and this mechanism can also be used to store the rifles and deploy them as shoulder guns in robot mode.

*'''Robo-Vision Optimus Prime''' (Voyager, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle/smokestack-fuel tank assemblies, 2 missiles

: A Target-exclusive redeco of the Voyager Class Optimus Prime toy, this limited edition version boasts a "Supermetal finish", resulting in silver metallic paint covering much of his paintable gray/silver plastic, a much higher contrast in his red and blue plastic colors and improved 'flame' paint decorations.

: Unusually for the smaller Voyager Class of toys, [[Robo-Vision]] Optimus Prime comes packed in robot mode in a special hexagonal column box with many windows, similar to the original packaging for ''20th Anniversary'' Optimus Prime. The package also includes a Robo-Vision Decoder. Strangely, this Target exclusive preceded the release of the regular Voyager by a large margin, coming out on [[June 2]], 2007 with the initial wave of movie toys.

: This toy has been retroactively declared part of the ''Premium Series'' of more [[Show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] redecos of core characters from the movie.

:All international versions came in the same packaging, but lacked the "Only at Target" sticker.

:A gold-chromed version of the Voyager Optimus Prime toy was available as part of the same Lucky Draw contest as the Golden Protoform Optimus (see above) in the December 2007 issue of ''TV Magazine''. Limited to only 3 pieces, it is insanely rare. The photographed sample here features a chromed truck grill, while a boxed unit has an unchromed grey grill; the owners of both pieces, the Mapes Brothers of [http://www.transformertoys.co.uk/ Transformers @ The Moon], believe both are genuine TakaraTomy toys, so it is unclear if the one with the chromed grill is a testshot or a production variant.

*'''First Strike Optimus Prime''' (Voyager Class, 2008)

{{toydesigner|[[Ken Christiansen]] (concept artist)}}

: Released as part of the ''Allspark Power'' refresh of the movie line, First Strike Optimus Prime is an extensive redeco of Voyager class Optimus Prime in a colour scheme based upon ''Generation 1'' and ''Classics'' Optimus Prime. The included toy bio describes this coloring as Prime paying tribute to the markings he wore as a young soldier when the war began. Due to the [[transformation]], this figure actually ends up being ''less'' like its G1 counterpart in robot mode, a sacrifice made for the slavish redeco of the vehicle mode. You can't have your cake and eat it too, folks.

**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle/smokestack-fuel tank assemblies, 2 missiles

:A single-packed version of the battle damaged Voyager Optimus Prime toy from the Sam's Club exclusive three-pack. Although the assortment number and the general packaging style (which are both the same also used for the [[Premium Series]] redecos of Voyager Class [[Ratchet (Movie)/toys#Premium|Autobot Ratchet]] and [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#VoyagerPremium|Megatron]]) seemed to indicate that this might be a Best Buy exclusive, it was later confirmed to be an "international market" exclusive. It was released in Hasbro's Southeast Asian markets, but was not available in the USA outside the Sam's Club three-pack.

: A second Target-exclusive redeco of the Voyager Class Optimus Prime toy, the gray molded pieces were recolored beige-grey, and multiple parts that were previously molded in blue and red (the chest, shoulder pads, and leg interiors) had their mold colors swapped, with extra [[paint operation]]s to make up the difference. As such, the toy has very few visual differences from the regular release of the sculpt, in a "doing things differently to achieve a very similar end result" sense. This version was only available in a pack with an unchanged Deluxe Class [[Bonecrusher (Movie)#FreewayBrawl|Bonecrusher]].

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Leader Class, 2007)
**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''MA-01'''
**''Accessories:'' Removable Ion blaster, 1 missile
{{toydesigner|[[Eric Siebenaler]] (Hasbro), [[Takashi Kunihiro]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Released in the first wave of [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|''Transformers'']] Leader Class toys, this Optimus Prime, at the time, was the most accurate representation of the CGI designs' complex transformation sequence. He transforms into a heavily-customized [http://www.peterbilt.com/index_gal_mod_desc.asp?model=model379 Peterbilt 379] conventional extended-hood, and unusually for a mainline figure, he has rubber tires on all his wheels. His [[Ion blaster]] weapon is stored in the rear of the truck's bunk, exposed like an engine block. Though Optimus has no trailer, he has a hole where the fifth wheel hitch is sculpted in the rear of the truck. Due to [[For safety reasons|safety reasons]], the tips of his long smokestacks are made of rubber. A switch on top of the cab roof activates horn sounds and window lights.

:Featuring a complex transformation, the front and back ends of the truck essentially fold and converge to become Optimus Prime's legs, as much of the truck rear is connected to the robot thighs via a series of folding panels. The rear wheel cowlings feature a hinge joint in the middle of them so they do not impede his knee articulation. The halves of the rear cabin of the cab, directly connected to the smokestacks, rotate and connect to his torso and unfold into his arms.

: As with most mainline Movie toys, Optimus Prime features [[Automorph Technology|Automorph]] gimmicks, and due to his price point, he has three of them. Firstly, during initial transformation, rotating his front fenders to become his heels flips the top parts of the grill to become his toes. Secondly, sliding out the double-barrel cannon in his right forearm flips out his spring-loaded Ion Blaster, which lands into place for his right hand. (The Ion Blaster can actually be popped off his forearm fairly easily, as it is held in place by a simple clip.) Optimus's final Automorph, located in his torso, is activated by flipping the silver lever on his stomach, activating a series of spring-loaded actions where the truck windows are pushed apart and the lever between them is raised, enabling the head to spring up from the chest cavity. At this point, yellow LEDs light up the chest windows and Optimus Prime's eyes, accompanied by a "powering up" sound effect.

:Optimus Prime has a wide range of articulation for a relatively bulky figure. He has ratcheting joints in his shoulders, elbows, hips, and knees, with swivel joints and ball joints supporting them in his biceps, lower knee joints, and ankles. His hands even have individually articulated fingers and thumbs!

:The first Nightwatch Optimus Prime is an extensive redeco of the previously released Leader-class Optimus Prime, replacing most of his red and blue with different shades of blue and black. In fact, he resembles the original [[Diaclone]] Powered Convoy color scheme of ''Generation 1'' [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys|Ultra Magnus]]'s truck cab. The previously blue and red flames have been replaced with silver flames, while various other decos have been replaced by copper.

:This version was released in the UK several months before the ''AllSpark Power'' version. Available exclusively through Argos stores, it came in an American-style box with the original Movie packaging design. This version was also released by [[TakaraTomy]] in Japan.

:The second Nightwatch Optimus Prime was released as part of the "[[AllSpark Power]]" second half of the Movie line. He is similar to the UK version of Nightwatch Prime, replacing most of his red and blue with different shades of blue and black, retaining his resemblance to Diaclone Powered Convoy in most respects. However, the subdued black and copper on the first Nightwatch Prime have been replaced with gold and a ''very'' bright blue, to signify the All Spark energy affecting the Transformers. The translucent parts were also cast in purple translucent plastic instead of black translucent plastic.

:Another difference is that this version comes in an ''AllSpark Power''-style box instead of the original style.

*'''Optimus Prime''' ("Premium Series" Leader Class, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' Detachable, Retractable "energy sword"

:The Premium Series Optimus Prime is both a [[retool]] and a redeco of the Leader Class Optimus Prime toy. The major selling point is a more movie-accurate head sculpt with longer ears and detailing based on the final CG head design, and a flip-out energy sword to replace the ion blaster that was included with previous versions of the toy. This energy sword is detachable and attaches where the Ion Blaster did, compatible with non-premium Optimus Prime Leader-class-based releases. Because his ears are much longer, the truck roof panel that hides his head now has two holes cut into so the head can fit inside the cabin.

:The paint deco is... unfocused, to say the least. In vehicle mode, the grill, headlights, and bumpers (and thus his feet) are painted silver, yet the red in the small Autobot insignia has been removed. There is silver paint on the fuel tanks (toy battery cover), but not on the other tool boxes and equipment in the same location. There is also silver paint on all 6 wheel rims, the air cleaners, and the windscreen visor. In robot mode, the silver paint is mainly located on his thighs and crotch, though in order to save on costs, the dark blue and gold paint on his thighs and knee joints have been sacrificed.

:Unlike the initial ''Premium Series'' toys, this one was available as part of the regular mass retail Leader class assortment. The instructions still depicts the original Leader Class mold's head.

**''TakaraTomy ID number:'' '''MA-21'''

:The TakaraTomy version of Premium Series Optimus Prime has a considerably different deco from Hasbro's release. Similar to the unique chrome Optimus Prime, Optimus Prime Battle Mode features vacuum-metallized parts for nearly all of the silver truck parts, for a greater resemblance to the polished chrome on the real prop trucks. Unfortunately, as his feet are the front fenders and grill, this will likely lead to chipping. In robot mode, he retains several decos that were removed from Hasbro's Premium Optimus Prime for cost reasons, such as the blue and gold decos on his thighs. Finally, the flip-out energy sword is coloured gold to reflect its "powered up" appearance.

**''Japanese ID number:'' '''QC-01'''

{{toydesigner|[[Kōjin Ōno]] (TakaraTomy)|[[Marcelo Matere]] (packaging artist)}}

:[[Fast Action Battlers|Fast Action Battler]] Power Hook Optimus Prime is a (roughly) Deluxe sized figure made for younger children than the rest of the mainline and was designed to have a quick conversion and an action feature. This actually translates to him being made of a series of Automorph mechanisms that facilitate what is for the most part, a one step transformation. Just split the front of the truck along the seam and Optimus' chest and arms swing into place while his feet pop out. The sides of the truck even feature little sculpted arrows to remind you what to do! He has a little string attached to his missile tied to his "backpack" to let you imagine he's reeling things in with his hook. It also means little ones don't lose it, but other figures in the line featured firing missiles which weren't tied to anything, so that's probably not why it's there. The launching hook isn't Prime's only gimmick though, as his waist is spring loaded in one direction for a punch (or maybe even kick) attack. For whatever reason, the balls in his hip joints are cast from clear blue plastic so they may be a point of fragility.

:Unsurprisingly, he is relatively inaccurate to the film's design.

: [[Cyber Slammers]] Optimus Prime is an amazingly cute truck that transforms into an amazingly cute Autobot. "Slam" his robot mode down into car mode and he rolls along for a while, then snaps back up into robot mode. Sure to please the toddler you brought with you to the PG-13 movie!

**''Accessories:'' Display stand, set of truck mode armor, set of protoform armor, open-palmed hands
{{toydesigner|[[Hironori Kobayashi]] (TakaraTomy)}}

: [[Trans-scan]]ning Optimus Prime is a Japanese-exclusive figure with many interchangeable parts. At its most basic, the figure is a spindly skeleton referred to as a "[[core body]]". To this skeleton, two sets of armor pieces can be attached to create one of two forms for Optimus Prime: his [[protoform]] mode or his Earth mode.

: The protoform mode consists of eight pieces of metallic blue plastic that plug into the arms, chest, pelvis and legs of the figure. With these pieces attached, the figure can be transform into his meteor-like "entry mode". This mode can be mounted on a three-piece stand that comes with the figure, allowing you to display it in mid-plummet.

:Optimus Prime's Earth mode, meanwhile, is made up of many armor pieces that form a rather [[Kibble|kibbly]] robot mode, which can then transform into a truck approximating a Peterbilt 379. Compared to the overly simple transformation of the protoform mode, his truck mode's transformation can be described as an abominable, unintuitive, parts-massaging ''mess''.

: Optimus Prime also includes a pair of interchangeable, open-palmed hands that can be swapped out for the clenched fists that are in place in-package. The Core Body mold was re-used for the simultaneously released Trans-Scanning [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Trans-Scanning|Bumblebee]] figure.

{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}
[[File:ROTF Legends Prime Jetfire combo.jpg|thumb|left|Don't I look awesome with my corpse backpack?]]

:''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' Legends class Optimus Prime is a much more accurate mold compared to the 2007 Legends class Prime, having a much greater accuracy in both robot and vehicle mode. In particular, his vehicle mode isn't inexplicably missing one smokestack like the 2007 toy. It should be noted that he was molded in only one paintable plastic color, with red and blue deco patterns decked on it. The top of the truck's bunk (ending up on his back in robot mode) has a slot to combine with [[Jetfire (Movie)|Jetfire]]. For some reason, this isn't mentioned in the instructions, though they're hardly needed.

: Compared to the final product, stock photos of the figure loses blue paint operations on his knee armor. This mold was also used to make [[Darkside Optimus Prime (DOTM)#Dark of the Moon|Darkside Optimus Prime]].

: During the [[May 30]] launch event for the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' toyline in [[Japan]], Legends Optimus were given out to attendees. The only difference is a sticker on the packaging commemorating the event. Optimus also saw release as a blindpacked figure for the first wave of the Revenge of the Fallen EZ Collection sets. And like all the first waves, he comes with a flyer advertising the TakaraTomy releases of the Revenge of the Fallen toyline. His pair of legs is also mistranformed to fit in the bubble.

:In Malaysia, this toy was one of the four Legends Class toys to be released as promotional merchandise for the Petronas Gas Station. He could be obtained starting from the 12th of July, via RM30 ($7.04) worth of gas or RM15 ($3.52) worth of foods and items in the Mesra Shop.

:Anyone looking to buy this figure on the aftermarket be warned, there is a very convincing-looking [[knockoff]] that's been making the rounds. While the paint applications are pretty much identical to the real deal, the pegs on the legs/trunk front can be a little too tight when attached. in some worst cases; it can break off if attempted to pull off by force.

**''Japanese Name'': '''Optimus Prime Revenge Edition'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 rifle/smokestack-fuel tank assemblies, 2 missiles

:Voyager Optimus Prime is a [[redeco]] of the toy from the [[Transformers (2007 toyline)|first movie's toyline]]. Like several redecos or retools of 2007 movie toys, there has been some effort to make this release noticeably different from the previous releases, though the toy ends up looking less accurate to the actual movie appearance than those previous releases. Optimus Prime has a sort of faded Autobot [[insignia|logo]] on the side of the truck's bunk, and kanji (Chinese characters) on the roof (ending up on his knee in robot mode.) The word "上海将军" means "Shanghai General", while "大将" means "Grand general". The beige-gray plastic used for this toy is similar to his Screen Battles toy, only with a slightly reddish hue.

:The Japanese version of the toy, named "Optimus Prime Revenge Edition", was exclusively available at Tokyo Toy Show 2009, and later also from [[e-HOBBY]]. Despite being sold in Hasbro packaging like the mass retail ''Revenge'' toys in Japan (plus the addition of Japanese stickers marking it as a Japanese market release and containing Japanese safety warnings and manufacturer information), it slightly differed from the Hasbro version insofar as it lacked the [[tampograph]]ed kanji lettering.

:''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen: Unite for the Universe|Unite for the Universe]]'' Optimus Prime would have been a redeco of the 2007 Optimus Prime Voyager-Class mold in a similar style to the Leader-Class Buster Optimus Prime (see below), with a much more accurate and detailed paint scheme, including white stenciled flames. He would have come with a set of [[Jetfire (Movie)#Voyager Class toys|Jetfire]] armour parts to form the powered-up Optimus Prime seen at end of ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'', and due to not having to form Jetfire's robot mode or his jet mode, the armour parts are far more accurate to the movie's design of them than the leader class Jetfire toy could manage. While not combined to Optimus Prime, the armour can be arranged to form a sort of weapon emplacement mode or a jet engine on the back of Optimus's vehicle mode.

:Both Jet Power Optimus Prime and the accompanying redeco of Voyager-Class ''Revenge of the Fallen'' [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#UniteMegatron|Megatron]] would have come with an issue of the [[Unite for the Universe issue 1|''Unite for the Universe'' comic book]], but due to the cancellation of both figures, the comics were eventually included with the [[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Movie Masterpiece]] releases of Leader-Class [[Starscream (Movie)/toys#Masterpiece|Starscream]] and [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#Masterpiece|Bumblebee]]. Of amusement is the fact the comics are essentially showcasing toys that have been canceled.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Leader, 2009)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''RA-01'''
{{toydesigner|[[Takashi Kunihiro]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' Leader-class Optimus Prime is an entirely different mold from the first movie's Leader-class Optimus Prime.

:Like the previous Prime, it is loaded with features, though it ditches the first movie's [[Automorph Technology|Automorph]]ing for the new [[Mech Alive]] gimmick. When a grey tab on his midriff is pressed, Prime's entire pectoral region "flexes", lights in his chest and eyes glow, and he declares "I am Optimus Prime" in [[Peter Cullen]]'s voice. For the European release of the figure, to get past the language barrier, the Cullen sound clip is abbreviated to just "Optimus Prime"; in some regions, including Quebec and the UK (but only after a month or two), both versions were made available. A transformation sound effect activates when his torso is transformed, and once Prime is in truck mode, an almost unnoticeable button (a small square located beside the screw for the battery compartment, undocumented in his instructions) is revealed, which activates engine-idling noises.

:Each arm features flip-out blades that trigger when a button on the forearm is pressed. Each of these blades has a [[Cyberglyphics|Cyberglyphic]] symbol on it. The blades severely restrict Prime's arm articulation when retracted, as they get in the way of the kibble, but as there is very little one can do with Prime's arms without causing the blades to deploy, this is hardly noticeable.

:One detail not reflected in most of Hasbro's photos is that the sun visors above Prime's windows are mounted on ball joints and can be positioned like they are in his CG design. The hood halves on his arms can slide up on their hinges and the blue panels at the back of Prime's lower legs can be pulled out slightly as well for further screen accuracy.

:Overall, the robot mode of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' leader class Optimus Prime toy is slightly taller and considerably more athletic-looking than the 2007 ''Transformers'' Leader-class Optimus Prime toy.

[[File:ROTF Leader Jetfire PowerUpPrime toy.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4|Who's your daddy? He is.]]
:Optimus Prime can also combine with Leader-class [[Jetfire (Movie)|Jetfire]] to form Jetpower Optimus Prime by slightly transforming his backpack and feet. Sadly, this takes away from his leg articulation, because otherwise he could never support the massive backpack he has in this mode. However, fans have created alternate configurations that increase leg articulation and movie-accuracy.

[[File:Rotf optimus stock photo 1.jpeg|thumb|right|upright=1]]
:Like several new-mold ''Revenge of the Fallen'' toys, Optimus Prime suffers from some cost-cutting measures that affected the final production version of the mold. According to Hasbro's stock photos/back-of-box photo of the hand-painted [[prototype]] (pictured right), the toolboxes on the sides of his legs were designed to fold away further for a sleeker, cleaner look. Additionally, the rear tires would have been able to split in half, with the inner half of the tire going inside the outer half to recreate the thin tires seen on Prime's CG design. Some articulation was lost on the toy between Hasbro stock photography and the final release. His fingers are no longer articulated; instead, the entire hand is now one molded piece. Finally, the lower arms appear to have been originally designed so that his hands could slide in or out of them during transformation. Sadly, he also lacks rubber tires, which the original movie Prime did have. Meanwhile, the articulated fingers was later used for the ''Asia Premium Series'' & ''Movie The Best'' releases.

:As a result of striving for vehicle realism and painstaking accuracy to his visual portrayal in the live-action films, this Optimus Prime ends up being ridiculously complex. Transforming him back into a truck is probably more complicated than shown in the movie and can only be considered ''torture''. Very unfortunately, the [[instructions]] for this toy are infamous for being amazingly vague and unclear in their visual depiction of the transformation steps, making transformation even ''harder''. Also, let us not forget that, upon transforming him back to robot mode, he will declare his identity over and over and over and over and over until you're finished.

:The TakaraTomy release of Optimus Prime replaces the red plastic from his neck down to the middle of his pectorals with gray plastic. The smokestacks also are a different shade of gray, and are more opaque than the Hasbro release. This version can also attach [[Energon star]]s.

:The entire mold also became a victim of [[Knockoff|counterfeiting]], ranging from upscaled (and sometimes simpified) molds to high-quality clones. Several of his redecoes/retools below also suffers from this too.

Buster Optimus Prime is almost identical to the single-pack Japanese release of the toy, but unlike the standalone Buster Prime, has a head with a faceplate, itself containing more paint details than the first release of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Leader-class Optimus Prime. The flames are outlined with light blue instead of white for accuracy to the physical truck prop (though it ends up being inaccurate in robot mode). Jetfire has a subtle, more [[show-accuracy|movie-accurate]] colour scheme.

:Despite the fact that this is a TakaraTomy release, this version ''doesn't'' use the improved version of Optimus' [[instructions]], using instead the original (and less helpful) version.

This release of Buster Optimus Prime was susceptible to a paint scraping issue on the silver painted slide-out barrel of his blaster. This problem was fixed for the [[#DOTMJetfireBuster|DOTM Re-release]] by relocating the silver paint app from the barrel to the inside wall of an exposed gas tank that had been previously left as unpainted grey plastic. The black paint app on the barrel was left unchanged.

{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

: Released in the second wave of 2010 ''Transformers'' Voyagers, Battle Blades Optimus Prime is a sculpt that attempts to replicate his Leader Class design, while also being much more movie accurate than the previous Voyager incarnations. He features two [[Dual Energon Swords|energon swords]] made of soft plastic, similar to his Leader Class incarnation, albeit not spring-loaded. They can be detached from the mushroom joints they're on, although doing this excessively may cause them to warp.

: He also has a removable [[Matrix of Leadership]] in his chest which is made of unpainted gray plastic. In an awesome homage, the Movie Matrix rests on a stand molded to look like its Generation 1 incarnation.

: His fuel tanks can also separate from the truck panels and become two "[[barrage cannon]]s". Oddly enough, these guns are mentioned nowhere on the box even though they would normally be a selling point.

: The [[instructions]] neglect to mention that the entire roof of the cab is on a concealed hinge which greatly eases the difficulty of Prime's transformation. For whatever reason, the instructions treat the toy as if the hinge does not exist, going so far as to show Prime's head magically clipping through his chest to transform. The instructions also neglect to mention that his heel/bumper pieces must be slid out until they ''click'', making the figure just that bit more stable, and that the rotating truck door panels on his upper arms can be pulled further out (but not off) from their sockets, allowing more space for the panels to swing around his hood-arms during transformation. It should be noted that the chest windows on all releases of this sculpt are prone to slight cracking, often out of the packaging.

: The TakaraTomy ''Autobot Alliance'' release of this toy has some significant differences. Color-wise, the red plastic is in a darker shade, his shin and wheel joints are grey rather than Hasbro's bronze, and the Matrix of Leadership has been painted silver. More immediately noticeable is that the dual energon swords have been replaced with a pair of battle hooks, similar to 2010's Leader Class Optimus Prime (see below). However, due to the Japanese release retaining the Hasbro packaging, the box still advertises the swords rather than the hooks.

: This mold was also used to make ''Dark of the Moon'' [[Darkside Optimus Prime (DOTM)|Darkside Optimus Prime]].

: Released in the first wave of ''Transformers'' Leader class toys, this [[retool]] of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Leader Class Optimus Prime features the head from [[#BusterOptimus|Buster Optimus Prime]], and has had his blades replaced with semi-articulated Battle Hooks for face-destroying action! He has a darker paint job and sports black splotches on his body and head to signify battle damage. However, due to these extra "battle damage" paint applications, some other paint applications that were present on the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' release were omitted.

: He also sports a new voice box in robot mode, replacing the infamous "I am Optimus Prime!" with "We must stop the Decepticons!" The international release, however, retains the same abbreviated "Optimus Prime" sound clip as the original release. To the annoyance of many fans, this version was the main version released just about ''anywhere'' outside the United States (all of Canada, Latin America, Europe, and Asia). The box also mentions racing sounds, which may or may not be referring to the button-activated diesel engine noises carried over from the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' version of the figure.

: This version uses the TakaraTomy version of the instructions, which improved upon the original Leader-Class Optimus Prime instruction sheet by including supplementary photographed steps that were previously vague or neglected in the original release.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (MechTech Deluxe, 2011)
**''Accessories:'' MechTech Blaster/Energon Battle Axe
{{toydesigner|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

:Exclusive to [[Walmart]], this Deluxe Class Optimus Prime features a high range of motion, with ball jointed shoulders and hips, swivels at the neck, knees, and feet, and double swivels in the elbows. As a result of the transformation process, he can also rotate at the waist, though this is hindered considerably by his "backpack" [[kibble]]. This can be remedied by pointing the truck nose downward, as it is in the packaging. Optimus Prime also features the spring loaded "Automorph" feature in his head, if the truck kibble pushes the small grey switch from his back before splitting the chest into half. And due to how close the head of the faceplate and the front unpaintable piece is, Optimus' "nose" section has a tendency to chip off after many transformations.

:Optimus Prime features a [[MechTech]] Blaster that can convert into an Energon Battle Axe reminiscent of the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/Generation 1 cartoon continuity|Generation 1 character]]'s [[Energon-axe|iconic weapon]], though the weapon cannot be locked in battle axe mode. There is also a pair of C joint rods on the underside of both forearms. His MechTech blaster can plug into the port on each of his arms or be held in either hand in robot mode, or plug into one of two holes on his truck roof/robot shoulders.

:After step 5, the instructions did not mention that you should fold back the shoulder panels to form the sleeper part until the 11th step. Care must be taken while transforming the legs: the small peg located on the lower leg can be snapped off due to the peg being slightly thick to accommodate with the hole. Also, take note that Optimus Prime cannot wield 5mm weapons with longer posts, as the way that his pinky finger is molded prevents the post from pegging down through his hands. Also, take note that the legs' sculpted small rectangle peg (the one that locks the robot mode legs in place) is prone to warping if care is not taken during transformation.

:The hand-painted prototype photos from both the packaging and the instructions shows that Prime had long smokestacks, but it was shortened for safety reasons in the final product.

:His MechTech weapon was redecoed from [[Mudflap (ROTF)#Deluxe Class toys 3|Mudflap]]'s weapon. This figure is currently being sold in Universal theme parks in new packaging based on the ride. He is advertised as a Universal Studios Exclusive, despite having no visible changes from his original widespread release.

As part of the set's lunar theme, reflections of stars are painted across his vehicle mode sides and on his windshield, with a sharp reflection of [[Earth]]'s [[Moon (moon)|Moon]] in one of his windows. This time, his [[Matrix of Leadership]] is cast in orange plastic.

:This exclusive has a peculiar and common error in that the arm hooks' hubs stick out farther than they should, causing a gap that runs down the middle of the cab's nose in vehicle mode.

:This Optimus Prime cannot tow the [[Armored Weapons Platform#Voyager Class toys|Mechtech trailer]], as the original mold has no trailer hitch to begin with.

:Optimus comes with a "bonus value" Deluxe Class toy, [[Comettor (DOTM)|Comettor]]. The pair together cost a dollar less than a regular Voyager Class toy. It was also available at Galeria Kaufhof department stores in Germany, with Comettor ''not'' highlighted as a "bonus" figure.

:In [[Australia]], this release was available at [[Kmart]] for a considerably lower price than a regular Voyager Class toy.

:Fireburst Optimus Prime is a redeco of the standard ''Dark of the Moon'' Voyager Class Optimus Prime, sporting a darker shade of blue and a "burning" color scheme that includes replacing all translucent blue parts with translucent orange. Because of this, his light-piping eyes were neutered by opaque light blue paint.

:He comes with a MechTech rifle that converts into a large battle axe, and can be locked in by pulling the lever all the way in and tilting it into a gap to the left. The rifle has a separate flip-out handle, while the axe uses the rifle's long barrel as the handle, meaning that Optimus can grip the axe with both of his hands. This weapon was also retooled in a running change, adding a stop to the handle instead of relying solely on the gear system to prevent the locking assembly from flying off into parts unknown.

*'''Striker Optimus''' (MechTech Leader, [[November 17]] 2011)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''DA28'''
**''Accessories:'' Eliminator Gun & Assault Blaster (forms [[Mega Striker]]), shield/battle shield

: Labeled as a "[[Triple Changer]]", Striker Optimus is a redeco and retool of ''Dark of the Moon'' Supreme Class Jetwing Optimus Prime, with new weapons. The base figure has most of the same mold changes as Jetwing Optimus Prime (see below), but has been altered further; in particular, the transforming smokestacks and fuel tanks/ion blaster parts have been replaced with retooled regular tanks that now function as mounts for the new accessories. The colors on the toy are darker than Jetwing Optimus, with a different flame deco that extends farther along the sides of the toy. Additionally, two new 5mm holes have been added to the gray hinge behind the cab in order to accommodate the [[Toys"R"Us|Toys"R"Us Japan]]-exclusive battle blade accessories. The "I am Optimus Prime" saying of Buster Optimus Prime has also been replaced with the "We must stop the Decepticons!" saying of 2010 ''Transformers'' Optimus Prime, although batteries are not included.

:He comes with a shield with a fold-out handle, allowing Optimus to hold onto it with either hand in robot mode. It has a simple transformation gimmick for vehicle mode which is activated by pressing a button at the top of the shield, causing the sides to spring outwards. In vehicle mode, the shield can be laid flat across the bed of the truck, attaching via a post on the back onto the truck’s trailer hitch. Alternatively, the bumpers on the shield can be rotated outwards, and the front can be bent down in order to form a new front end and hood for "battle vehicle mode", resembling the [[Stealth Force]] vehicle modes seen in ''Dark of the Moon''.

:The figure also comes with two gun accessories, the "Eliminator Gun" and "Assault Blaster", which combine into the "Mega Striker", a rifle that closely resembles the one used in ''Dark of the Moon''. The separate guns also have a MechTech-style transformation, and pulling a lever transforms them into alternate crossbow-like shapes. In "battle vehicle mode", the sides of the truck are rotated up, and the guns can be attached by small pegs to holes in the modified smokestacks, or they can plugged into any of the standard connection points with their [[5 mm post|5mm post]]s... except the ones on the hinge behind the cab, since those are supposed to be for his Energon battle blades.

:As with all Japanese ''Dark of the Moon'' releases, this set comes packed with a character card and an accompanying transparent plastic card of his new rifle in its combined mode for the MechTech Wars online game.

:Due to the remolding of the smokestacks, Striker Optimus cannot use the Jetwing pack in robot mode.

The DOTM packaging release of this 2-pack features an altered paint application on Optimus Prime's ion blaster/barrage cannon. On the original ROTF packaging release, the slide-out barrel on Prime's blaster is painted silver with a black paint spray app to simulate usage of the weapon, and the exposed inside wall of the gas tank at the top of the blaster is left as unpainted grey plastic (exactly like the blaster on the original single-boxed ROTF Buster Optimus Prime). After receiving numerous reports from customers that the silver paint on the slide-out barrel was easily scraped off by merely transforming it from gas tank to blaster, Takara-Tomy briefly stated in an interview that they had addressed the issue for the Dark of the Moon packaged version by swapping the placement of the silver paint application. Thus, the Dark of the Moon packaged version now features the slide-out barrel on Prime's blaster as unpainted grey plastic with an unchanged black paint spray app to simulate usage of the weapon, and the exposed inside wall of the gas tank at the top of the blaster is now painted silver.

{{toydesigner|[[Takashi Kunihiro]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Jetwing Optimus Prime is a retool of ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Leader class Buster Optimus Prime, with an accompanying large jet pack and massive dual Gatling Cannons. The base Optimus Prime figure has several modifications including: a new stomach area and elbow flares to reflect the changes to Optimus Prime's CG model in ''Dark of the Moon'', modified lower arms to incorporate MechTech ports and clips for the cannons, and a retooled area under his back so the jet pack can fit on more securely. The dual energon blades mounted on his arms have been removed. The toy retains Buster Optimus Prime's electronics, but batteries are not included.

:The Jetwing jet pack attaches onto Optimus Prime via a part that hooks onto one of the hinges behind his neck, and a spring-loaded clamp that latches onto a recessed area under Optimus' back. The fuel tanks that form Optimus' Ion Blaster must be removed for this mode, and they can be stored inside the engines for the jet pack. The Jetwing can be used on previous Leader Optimus Primes from ''Revenge of the Fallen'' onwards, but due to the lack of modifications seen in Jetwing Optimus Prime, the combination isn't as stable. The jet pack features four MechTech ports on the main wing articulation points, and two [[C joint]] mounting points on each wing. The Gatling Cannons both feature two MechTech ports and 2 C joint mounts on either side of each cannon.

:The design of the Jetwing jet pack and its cannons were based upon earlier concept art for Optimus Prime's flight tech for ''Dark of the Moon'', and as such are not accurate to how his equipment appears in the movie itself.

:As with all Japanese ''Dark of the Moon'' releases, this set comes packed with a character card and an accompanying transparent plastic card of his MechTech weapon for the MechTech Wars online game.

:Jetwing Optimus Prime was available for early purchase in Japan at the International Tokyo Toy Show 2011 (held at Tokyo Bic Sight) on [[June 18]] to [[June 19|19]], shortly before its wide release in July.

:However, the toy was available in [[Australia]] a week before the Tokyo Toy Show, packaged in translated English packaging and instructions by Tomy Asia.

:The box seems to have been created rather hastily from the Japanese original. It is roughly identical to the Tomy release, but with the Japanese text edited out... mostly. Random Japanese text remains floating in space on the top of the back panel and underneath the "Jetwing Optimus Prime" name on the front. Curiously, the left flap has been rewritten to eliminate mention of [[NEST]] and the jetpack's ability to detach, while the right flap has been (badly) edited to remove all mentions of [[MechTech]].

*'''Ultimate Optimus Prime''' (MechTech Ultimate, 2011)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''DA32'''
**''Accessories:'' Trailer/Omega Combat Armor, MechTech Ultimax Super Cannon
{{toydesigner|[[Takashi Kunihiro]] (TakaraTomy)|[[Andrew Scribner]] (deco artist)}}

:Billed on his packaging as "BIGGEST Optimus Prime Toy!", Ultimate Optimus Prime consists of an articulated tractor-trailer. The cab can transform into a "normal" Optimus Prime on its own, roughly equivalent to a Voyager in size and complexity, though with a lower degree of screen-accuracy than most large Optimus toys. Prime has 5mm fist holes, as well as additional 5mm ports on his front wheel wells and both sets of external fuel tanks. Four of these remain available in robot mode. The trailer has twelve more 5mm ports. Despite this, the toy comes with no weapons scaled such that the cab-only robot can usefully wield them.

:The real selling point of the toy, however, is the colossal Omega Combat Armor. [[Armored Weapons Platform#Ultimate|Optimus' trailer]] transforms into nearly two feet of limb extensions, armor, and wings. The armor remains completely integrated (except for the Ultimax Super Cannon) during transformation, with no [[Partformer|partsforming]], although this renders the final power-up robot mode somewhat limited in articulation, having no leg articulation whatsoever aside from swinging the hips out slightly and twisting at the ankles for maximum stability. The armor adds six more 5mm ports of dubious utility around the feet, retains the four from the cab robot and the eight from the trailer (on the backs of the wings), and has his own pair of 5mm fist holes. In trailer mode, it can hold itself up using folding blue supports, although the attached ball-jointed struts make it somewhat less than realistic.

:The centerpiece of the power-up robot mode is Prime's gigantic Ultimax Super Cannon, an electronic light-and-sound weapon the size and mass of a Deluxe figure. The whole cannon attaches to a special socket slightly behind Prime's shoulders, can store on the back or flip over to be gripped in both fists in armor mode, or stored upside-down underneath the trailer in truck mode. When pointed forward, the cannon has a larger helmet styled after Prime's own with a large translucent face shield featuring a painted targeting system. The weapon has three electronic modes: each of two small buttons plays its own weapon-firing noise and flashes one set of lights, while the large pull-switch in the cannon's center plays the sounds of a powerful barrage, flashing both sets of lights and (every third time) finishing off with the declaration "I am Optimus Prime". The Ultimax Super Cannon also has two of its own 5mm ports for even more MechTech firepower. When mounted on his back, the Cannon has two hook-like sections that securely lock into the "backpack", allowing the Ultimax weapon to serve as a handle for Optimus' imaginary "flight" operations.

:Although the trailer is made exclusively for the cab with which it comes, it is scaled much more closely to and can be pulled by Optimus Prime's ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Leader class iteration.

:In Japan, Ultimate Optimus Prime comes with a character card and an accompanying transparent plastic card of his MechTech weapon for the MechTech Wars online game.

:As with other Dark of the Moon Activators toys, this Optimus Prime (released under the [[Robo Power]] subline) is a very simple one-step transformation toy. You simply slam him down on the big blue button on the back end of his truck mode and he transforms thanks to spring-loaded mechanisms. To transform him back, just slam him down again on the same blue button.

:Shockingly, he actually has arm articulation! Swivels at his shoulders allow you to rotate his arms 360 degrees! Go little Prime! Unfortunately, because his big blue button sits right under his feet, his robot mode is a little unstable when it comes to standing.

:Prime was packaged in vehicle mode on an open, bubble-less card and tied down with twist-ties around the body of his truck form so that he couldn't be transformed in package.

:[[Robo Power#Go-Bots|Go-Bot]]s Optimus Prime is built around the same pull-back and auto-transform mechanisms as all the ''Dark of the Moon'' Go-Bots toys. Prime's pull-back motor can be used in either robot or vehicle mode.

:In robot mode, the motor gimmick really comes to the fore—his head, shoulders, and legs move in time with his forward movement. His legs pump up and down, his shoulders pump up and down, and his head rocks side-to-side. This gives the toy the illusion that it's running, rather than just rolling.

:The other gimmick for Prime is his auto-transform gimmick. From truck mode, push him down on his back bumper and his bonnet automatically folds back and his arms automatically pop out. He needs to be transformed back manually.

:In robot mode, Go-Bots Optimus Prime has a limited swivel joint for head articulation, and while he has other movable joints, all of them are spring-loaded and unable to hold a pose.

: Naturally, Optimus Prime got the biggest of the sets in the first year of ''Kre-O''. The set can be built into a large long-nose tractor-trailer rig with a removable "sleeper" cab that hides a computer station, and a trailer that can carry the set's two motorcycles or open up to carry larger car builds. The robot mode build includes a huge Optimus, based largely on the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|live-action movie Optimus]], though with a head based almost directly on the [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Classics|''Classics'' Voyager Optimus]]. He is armed with a distressingly plain brick that fires pressure-launched missiles (aka his smokestacks). Most of the leftover parts in robot mode become a "headquarters" which is mostly just a random assemblage of mismatched-color panels and a pair of barricades. Both main builds leave numerous parts unused if you go expressly by the instructions, but hey, it's a building kit, surely you can find ''someplace'' to apply most of them.

: The set comes with a bevy of [[Kreon]]s, including Optimus Prime (this one based heavily on [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Generation 1 Optimus]]), [[Bluestreak (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Bluestreak]], [[Skywarp (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Skywarp]], and a pair of human [[Stunt Driver]]s. A packaging error resulted in some releases of this set to come with the promotional "Matrix chest" Optimus (see above) rather than the normal version pictured here.

:Speaking of errors, the instruction manuals (he has two) both have errors in their parts listings, showing numerous pieces in the wrong colors or not making it clear that some parts are, well, clear. Making things more confusing, not all of these miscolors are reflected in the step-by-step instructions, while a couple new ones are added there.

He has a ferrous-metal backpack, which is used to interact with the magnetic parts in the various sets. In this specific set's case, it's so he can be grabbed by the buildable [[Strafe (AOE)#Kre-O|Strafe]]'s dino-claws, once Strafe uses said claws to open up the "laser" cage made to contain Optimus. (Yeah, we know Strafe appears way after Optimus ditched this look in the movie.)

:This Kreon of Optimus Prime is very, very similar to both the "[[Galvatron Factory Battle]]" and the "[[Decepticon Replicator]]" Optimus Kreons. This one however has silver hands, a light smirk under his facemask, and lacks the clip-on smokestacks.

: This version of Optimus uses the micro-Kreon build introduced in the ''Kre-O Cityville Invasion'' sets. He comes with a mini-build of dino-mode [[Grimlock (Kre-O)#DinobotRide|Grimlock]] as part of a small bagged kit.

: This set was only available on [[June 28]] as part of a special promotion at Toys"R"Us, given away free from noon to 2pm (roughly) as part of an in-store building event that coincided with the opening weekend of ''[[Transformers: Age of Extinction (film)|Age of Extinction]]'' and the final day of a buy-one-get-one-half-off sale on all ''Transformers'' product.

**''Accessories'': Optimus rifle

:This version of "movie" Optimus is based on his ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' incarnation, as that's how he appears in "[[Transformers: The Ride – 3D]]" and as a mascot character on the park grounds. He is available exclusively in a box set sold at The Ride's gift shop at [[Universal]] Studios theme parks. After several years of ''only'' being available at the park proper, the four-pack was eventually added to Universal's online store.

: In 2015, a new run of the set was produced, this time using the revamped-from-the-head-down 2015-style Kreon bodies. Optimus's [[tampograph]]s are slightly sharper, with thinner black outlines, but are otherwise unchanged. This set would later see slight production changes; all of the figures' tampographs have gone back to thicker lines and being a bit sloppier, while Optimus's medium-pearlescent-gray plastics (his arm-mounted smokestacks) have been lightened considerably and lost a significant amount of metallic sheen.

: In mid-2020, the set was revamped again ''again'', now removing Evac and replacing him with the [[N.E.S.T. Sentry]]. This version of the set uses the latter version of the other three characters with the thicker tampograph lines and lighter medium-gray plastic.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Mini-Con Combiners, unreleased)

:"Mini-Con Combiner"' Optimus comes with one standard Kreon and four ''Cityville''-syle mini-Kreons of the same character, each one a different incarnation from various franchises. With some extra parts, the mini-Kreons become limbs to make a larger combiner-bot.

: One of the Mini-Con limb-bots (Soundwave helmet) is based on the original movie version of Optimus. The main torso-bot is based on Generation 1 Optimus's original body. Two of his limbs are based on ''[[Transformers: Armada (franchise)|Armada]]'' [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Prime]]; one "normal" (Inferno helmet), one pre-[[Earth]]-body (Knock Out helmet). And the remaining one (Ironhide helmet)... actually looks to be based on the Optimus-like-but-not-Optimus [[Micromaster]] [[Overload (G1)|Overload]]! The heck?

:[https://www.seibertron.com/events/fullsize.php?event_id=400&size=1&image=29 First shown at New York Toy Fair 2015], the Mini-Con Combiners were apparently cancelled without fanfare... a decision that must have come late in the day, as they went on to star in their own promotional animation, "[[Stuck in a Tree]]", released about eight months after the trade show.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (2012)
**''Accessories:'' [[Armored Weapons Platform#Movie Trilogy Series|Trailer]]

:Another redeco of Deluxe-Class ''Dark of the Moon'' Prime, this release uses a darker grey, a less magenta-y red, and less gold on the front end. Included is the trailer originally available with the ''Chronicle'' release. The trailer holds up to seven MechTech or similar 5mm peg accessories. Four holes are located on the top-front end of the trailer, with another three inside. The door also folds down to become a ramp, and the inside of the trailer is big enough for several Legion or Commander Cyberverse toys, or one smaller-end Deluxe figure. Two [[C joint]] bars also run along the bottom of both sides.

:The center section of the inner trailer floor has been retooled so it can no longer be pulled out and flipped over, since bottle cap figurines aren't really sold in the West outside of import shops. However, the framework on the bottom of the trailer can be unscrewed to allow this piece to be flipped or, for the more industrious fan, have the tabs removed to restore the function. There is still an indent to make flipping the sliding section up easier, hinting at the neutered feature.

:Unlike both the Walmart exclusive Deluxe figure and the Japanese release, no weapon accessories are included.

:Amusingly, the packaging still showcases 3 canceled Movie Trilogy Series Deluxe class toys.

He features only elbow articulation in robot mode and includes a sword accessory that can be held in his hand or mounted on the side of his truck mode. The handle on the rear of his truck mode is molded to emulate his Vector Shield.

:Unfortunately, a large amount of people have stated their copies have had loose mushroom pegs on the arms, causing them to fall off, combine that with a loose [[5mm post]] on his sword and now you have an immobile [[brick (term)|brick]]!

:Similar to the ''[[Activators]]'' toyline, One-Step Changer Optimus Prime features a spring-loaded transformation. He features swivel articulation in the head and both arms. He shares a similar (not identical) transformation with his fellow One-Step changer, Hound. Also, due to his transformation scheme, his shoulders can be pushed forward (the arms is pushed on the same time), which also allows him to wield a close ranged weapons with longer handles with both hands.

*'''First Edition Optimus Prime''' (2014)
**'''14 OF 30'''
**''Accessories:'' Sword of Judgment, Sentinel Shield

: First Edition Optimus Prime is, as his title suggests, the first toy available to the public from the [[Transformers: Age of Extinction (toyline)|''Age of Extinction'' toy line]]. Prime is a Leader Class-sized figure, featuring his new Western Star "5700 OP" concept truck vehicle mode and his updated robot mode from the film (well, mostly based on his initial design rather than the final design in the movie). His transformation is much simpler than his counterparts from the previous three movie lines, being billed as transforming in "15 easy steps." His torso, shoulders, upper legs, and the vehicle mode grill are all completely chromed with the exception of minor blue and red details painted on his chest. However, this comes at the expense of his smokestacks and wheels being bare gray plastic, whereas they are chromed in the film. His [[shellformer|simplified transformation]] also comes at the expense of having a very bulky "backpack" of [[kibble]] composed of the rear of the truck cab and the fuel tanks, limiting his shoulder and hip [[articulation]]. His truck kibble can be detached from the main figure to form the majority of his vehicle mode on its own, though this is not an intended feature of the toy.

:He includes the Sword of Judgment and Sentinel Shield accessories, which he can respectively wield and mount on his left forearm, all via a 5mm post. In truck mode, the sword is stored underneath, while the shield mounts onto the trailer hitch. The sword also features a [[5 mm post|5mm post]] on its hilt. Interestingly, the truck mode is able to pull G1 Optimus Prime's trailer.

:He was only available as an [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] exclusive in the United States, but was also released at brick and mortar retails in Australia and Hasbro's Asian markets, such as Singapore. Oddly enough, even though the official press release for the figure identifies it as "14 of 30" in Hasbro's ''[[Thrilling 30#30 exclusive toys|Thrilling 30]]'' campaign, the [[packaging]] does not sport any such markings.<ref name="fepress">[http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/en_US/discover/news/Transformers-Movie-4-Optimus-Prime-Action-Figure-First-Edition.cfm Official Hasbro press release for ''Age of Extinction'' First Edition Optimus Prime]</ref> To complicate matters further, a later retrospective by Hasbro on Facebook identifies ''another'' product as "14 of 30", which doesn't sport any such markings on its packaging ''either''.<ref name="retro">[https://www.facebook.com/transformers/posts/743925055677691 Hasbro Thrilling 30 retrospective] on Facebook, mirrored [http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-generations-classics-30-35/hasbro-transformers-30th-anniversary-thrilling-30-exclusives-retrospective-gallery-181598/ here] on TFW2005.</ref>

**''Accessories:'' Sword
:A redeco of the ''Dark of the Moon'' Deluxe Class toy, this Optimus Prime has large portions of his body, mostly his truck parts, vacuum metalized silver, and his light-piped eyes were neutered by blue paint. He comes with a redeco of Generation 1 [[Rampage (G1)|Rampage]]'s sword, which can be wielded by his 5mm-compatible hands (Although not shown in the instructions). As his body, legs, and front truck kibble were chromed, care must be taken while transforming, ''especially'' with the shoulder kibble & the bottom leg's posts (This can be amended if you slightly widen the holes with 3mm hand drills). As with the original ''Dark of the Moon'' Deluxe Class figure, the instructions don't mention about forming the sleeper part until step 10, the pinky finger prevented the sword to peg down through his hands, and of course: his truck mode can attach with the Armored Weapons Platform included in the ''Chronicle'' or the ''Movie Trilogy Series'' figure. This figure has slightly loose shoulder joints.

:This figure was only available in a two-pack with a Voyager Class [[Grimlock (AOE)#Target2Pack|Grimlock]] figure. The two-pack was exclusively available at Target stores in the United States, Canada, and Australia, at Tesco stores in the United Kingdom and Hungary and at Galeria Kaufhof department stores in Germany.

{{toydesigner|[[John Warden]] (Hasbro), [[Hironori Kobayashi]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:Part of the first wave of ''Age of Extinction: [[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' Voyager Class toys, "Evasion Mode Optimus Prime" is based on the character's initial form in the film, transforming from a cab-over semi-truck into a robot mostly similar to his previous movie design. The truck mode is heavily based on Generation 1 Optimus Prime's White Freightliner WFT alt mode in both sculpt and deco, although it draws a few details, such as the singular smokestack and wheel designs, from the heavily faded Marmon 97 seen on-screen. In robot mode, he sports faux-kibble windows and, amusingly, ''two'' false smokestacks. Unfortunately, due to the way his arms transform, he lacks actual elbow joints, which makes the lower forearm the only poseable section. Optimus can wield weapons with longer posts while his hands are in a "default" 90° position. Also, while you transform him back to truck mode, his hands must be in the same sideways position to ensure the truck kibble is properly flushed.

:Optimus includes a spring-loaded missile-firing "ion cannon" modeled after Megatron's shotgun from ''Dark of the Moon'', with the missile features a sculpted shotgun nozzle on the front section. It can be held in his hand or attached to the top of the truck cab or truck bed via 5mm post, and, in an unadvertised feature, sports tabs on the rear-most handle that allow the [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#Voyager Class toys 4|''Dark of the Moon'' Voyager Class Megatron toy]] to wield it.

:In time-honored tradition, Prime's instructions depict the toy with an alternate "[[Retool#Gang-molded alternate parts|pretooled]]" head – in this case, a version with the faceplate deployed, used on the ''[[Transformers: Platinum Edition|Platinum Edition]]'' and "Rusty" releases of the figure (see below). Additionally, his [[packaging]] [[stock photography]] depicts him with extra white/silver [[Paint operation|paint detail]]s, especially on his chest and wheel rims, as well as having gray upper arms with red details, among other differences.

:Despite his relatively small truck mode (which is almost as small as a Deluxe class toy, but slightly larger than his ''Generation 1'' toy's truck) he is quite tall.

:The TakaraTomy version, part of the first wave of ''Movie Advanced Series'' toys, is dubbed "Classic Optimus Prime", and opts for a deco closer to Prime's previous on-screen appearances, omitting the blue paint on his feet and hands to reveal the gray plastic underneath, and adding new paint details all over. Instead of painting it in clear light blue, his light-piping eyes are neutered with opaque light blue paint.

:The faceplated version of the mold was used to make [[Nemesis Prime (AOE)#Toys|Nemesis Prime]].

{{toydesigner|[[Hironori Kobayashi]] (deco, TakaraTomy)}}

:Part of the first wave of ''Age of Extinction: Generations'' Leader Class toys, this is yet ''another'' "big" Optimus Prime figure. While smaller than the First Edition toy, this one features more silver and chrome paint in vehicle mode, a more poseable robot mode, and a Vector Shield accessory instead of the Sentinel Shield. Unlike the First Edition figure, Leader Class Optimus Prime's pauldrons and hip-skirts are formed from truck kibble, giving him a marginally smaller backpack. His accessories have roughly the same functionality as the First Edition toy, with his sword being hand-held and pegged onto his hands or storing underneath the truck, and his shield mounting onto his left forearm or storing on the back of the truck. Additionally, the sword sheath underneath the truck can be folded up and used in robot mode.

:It should be noted that this Optimus Prime can accommodate the [[Dual Energon Swords#Dark of the Moon|Battle Blade]] accessories to recreate the scene of him fighting against Galvatron.

:This figure was only made available as a store [[exclusive]] in parts of Europe, at least in the United Kingdom (at Argos) and Germany (at Rossmann drug stores).

:Apparently, early plans for the shield were to have it colored gold and silver, but it was later changed to gray and red. When a hand-painted [[prototype]] of the toy was first displayed at the 2013 New York Comic Con, the shield was colored yellow and silver; in addition, the original versions of the official Hasbro [[stock photography|stock photos]] also depict the gold color, but the versions featured on the back of the toy's [[packaging]] were edited so they would accurately depict the final toy's colors for the shield. Meanwhile, the versions of the stock photos provided to websites and online retailers depict the shield in its final colors for the robot mode, whereas the vehicle mode photo is the unedited version featuring the shield's original colors. Furthermore, UK-based retailer Argos also featured unedited versions of the stock photos for both modes in one of its catalogs, causing some confusion among fans.<ref name="argos">[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-toy-discussion/991761-uk-getting-different-leader-decos-optimus-yellow-vector-shield.html TFW2005 thread] about outdated stock photos used in Argos catalog.</ref> Sometimes, the spring loaded "[[Automorph Technology|Automorph]]" feature in his head is too strong and causes the head to fly off...

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

: A roughly Voyager-sized mold of Optimus Prime, he transforms into a Western Star "5700 OP" concept truck as seen in the film, in ''4 steps'':
::1. Press 2 buttons on the truck steps make the side panels pop out in position.
::2. Fold down the front section to transform it's robot mode legs.
::3. Fold back the rear parts to form the kibble.
::4. Position the arms into place, and Optimus will announce "Transform!", with a classic transformation sound effect.

: Like Stomp & Chomp Grimlock, his truck kibble from the back can accommodate One-Steps and Power Battlers, activating his various voice clips and flashing lights by interacting with the magnets in their feet. He has notably less kibble than other ''Age of Extinction'' Optimus Prime toys... from the front, at least. The back and sides are not so lucky, with large chunks of truck kibble hanging off his legs, making him look as if he's wearing a petticoat. At least the jetpack helps balance the whole thing out.

: The Sword of Judgement included with this toy is the same mold as the weapon included with the ''Age of Extinction'' leader class Optimus, but cast in flat grey rubbery plastic rather than the transparent plastic and paint operations of the initial release. This Optimus Prime erroneously features blue paint on his feet instead of the screen-accurate red.

**''Japanese ID Number'': '''MB-01'''
**''Accessories:'' Ion cannon, projectile/nozzle

:Released as part of TakaraTomy's ''[[Transformers Movie The Best]]'' toyline to conclude the 10th anniversary of the [[live-action film series]], this Optimus Prime is an extensive redeco of his Evasion mode toy. He also uses the faceplated head and the dark gray-colored Ion Cannon used for the Evolution 2-pack/''Platinum Edition'' 5-pack release. While his deco had taken cues from both the TakaraTomy release of Evasion Mode Optimus Prime and the ''Platinum Edition'' Breakout Battle figure, the weathering pattern bears a similar resemblance to his rusty version of the figure. Unfortunately, this release suffers from ''heavy'' mold degradation, particularly in the form of ill-fitting tabs around the truck front/shoulder area.

:Like the rest of the ''Movie The Best'' figures, Optimus Prime is packaged in vehicle mode.

:This Optimus Prime is an extensive screen-accurate redeco of the ''Dark of the Moon'' Supreme Class/Leader Class Striker retool, using the Ion Blaster accessory from the Buster Optimus Prime and the Toys"R"Us Japan-exclusive battle blade accessories. He also comes with the knuckle piece and the Battle Hooks and uses the 2-2-1 articulated fingers featured from the second ''Asia Premium Series'' release. The ion blaster has not been retooled to fit into the new hands, so you will need to wrap the smokestack around his forearm as best as you can and hope for the best. He also features a whopping 40 phrases recorded by [[Tesshō Genda]].

:Another release of the Leader Class Optimus Prime figure, now redecoed from the original ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Leader Class mold, but with the gimmick-less arms from the Supreme Class retool, and a pair of articulated fingers which was not previously used for the original release. He also retains his pair of Energon Swords, hooks, his knuckle piece, and the fuel tanks that can combine to form his ion blaster. In terms of deco, he features a darker plastic color and paint (which resulted in two-tone shades of silver & gunmetal), which is meant to go with this line's Jetfire.

*'''Optimus Prime''' ([[2017]])
**''Movie'': '''''Transformers'''''<ref>The packaging actually features a "10 Years" logo, in reference to the anniversary of the first film.</ref>
**''ID number:'' '''MPM-4'''
**''TakaraTomy release date:'' [[September 30]], 2017
**''Accessories'': "[[Ion blaster|Rifle]]", 2 "[[Dual Energon Swords|Energy Swords]]", [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#MPM4|Matrix of Leadership]]

:Released to conclude the 10th Anniversary of the live-action film series, [[The_Transformers:_Masterpiece#Transformers_sublines|''Masterpiece Movie Series'']] Optimus Prime transforms from a 25 cm-tall robot (a little taller than MP-10 [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#MP10|Convoy]]) resembling how the character appeared in the first live action movie into a <s>Kenworth W900</s> modified Peterbilt 379, in 43 steps, with many of the engineering cues being distinctively based and improved on the [[#Leader_Class_toys_2|''Revenge of the Fallen'' Leader Class mold]].

:The figure has diecast metal in its feet, shins, and abdomen. It features pinstriped flames, articulated fingers, a headsculpt with a face that can rotate between masked and unmasked modes in a method identical to Armor Knight Optimus Prime's, and an abdomen that opens to reveal a chamber housing a diecast Matrix of Leadership. He comes with said Matrix, his "Rifle" (aka "Ion Cannon"), and a pair of "Energy Swords" that tab in behind his wrists in a technically inaccurate fashion (they should replace the hands entirely) All three weapons can combine and store on the trailer hitch in vehicle mode or robot mode. Speaking of, Optimus can tow the [[Combat Deck (G1)#MP10|trailer]] from ''Masterpiece'' MP-10 Convoy. Possibly due to this feature, he is actually too short in robot mode, deviating from the scale much more than his peers.<ref>[https://www.tfw2005.com/boards/threads/mpm-3rd-party-scale-discussion.1194209/page-2#post-17949152 Thread discussion on the MPM scale], which lists Weijiang's upscaled knockoff of MPM Optimus deviating from the scale by being 0.93 cm too short; and taller than the real MPM by 3 inches.</ref>

:Though the figure does a much better job of conveying the on-screen character model than the ROTF Leader Class mold did, there are still a few inaccuracies—most notably the forearm and shoulder pad designs and the head/torso proportions. The final product also lacks certain paint details visible in stock and packaging imagery, such as the blue rings on his feet and the gold on his pelvis. In both the final product and stock photography, the silver detailing on the forehead is the wrong shape as there should not be a break in the silver. It should be noted that this mold does not combine with [[Jetfire (Movie)#Leader Class toys|Jetfire]].

:In addition, it is very difficult, if not impossible for the vehicle mode to tab together properly. The entire cab assembly breaks apart very easily as the tabs lack sufficient friction to keep it together, resulting in either a gap forming between the front windows and the hood or part of the hood raising up. This is due to a mold change seen in early prototypes and the toy packaging where the red abdomen sections tab in lower, inaccurately exposing the hinge between it and the chest windows. The pipes that are supposed to connect to the bottom of the smokestacks also don't swing out far enough to properly do so if the feet are tabbed together completely. Two sets of plastic rings on posts connect each of the shoulders to the torso - the ring that ends up on top in vehicle mode is slightly too thick and often filled with stress marks straight out of the packaging and can create stress marks on the torso piece it's connected to. The same ring can also make it ''extremely'' difficult to tab the cab together. Since the lower ring is on a separate part and still keeps the joint connected, it can be helpful to disassemble the figure and cut away the upper ring to alleviate both problems, but do so at your own risk.

:The TakaraTomy release replaces the dark gray plastic on the Hasbro version with lighter tan gray as well as adding some of the missing paint applications shown on the box, with the thighs and gas tanks still missing silver paint. The mold tolerances have been adjusted, and transforming to truck mode properly is possible with a degree of variation on some copies. The Hasbro and Takara Tomy versions both have misassembles on the sleeper cabin hinges, where they are reversed, although this does not affect transformation. The Takara Tomy release is packaged in truck mode, whereas the Hasbro version is packaged in robot mode. Due to the changes made for the Takara release, it is theorised that the Hasbro version was rushed to meet the anniversary year and/or Toys 'R Us exclusivity deadline.

:Much like his ROTF ancestor, he is a frequent victim of [[Knockoff|counterfeiting]], ranging from clones that fix the issues above to high quality upscales, although there is no 1:1 knockoff available.

:[[Starscream (G1)/toys#HasbroMP|As]] [[Bumblebee (G1)/toys#HasbroMP|expected]], the [[:File:MPM4Optimus.jpg|Hasbro stock photos]] have the figure mistransformed in both modes. The backpack is a mess, the chest and torso bits aren't properly configured, and the smokestacks in truck mode aren't extended.

:In the United States, Canada, and Hasbro's Asian markets, ''Masterpiece Movie Series'' Optimus Prime was exclusively available from [[Toys"R"Us]], whereas in Spain, he saw a wider release, being at least available via the Spanish subsidiaries of [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] and Carrefour. It's currently unknown if he was also available in stores, or limited to online purchases. In Greece, he was officially available via at least one toy store chain, aptly named simply "Toys-Shop", but again might have been available online only.

{{toydesigner|[[Takashi Kunihiro]] (TakaraTomy)}}

:The second ''Masterpiece Movie Series'' Optimus Prime transforms from a robot based on his appearance in the ''Bumblebee'' mid-credits scene into an unlicensed approximation of a 1970s Marmon cab-over truck, rather than the Freightliner he appears as during the film's ending scene, much like the ''Studio Series'' toy [[#SS38|below]]. He comes with his "Ion Blaster" used in the Cybertron sequences in the film, which can be folded and stored behind his cab. He also includes a new [[Matrix of Leadership/toys#MPM12|Matrix of Leadership]], despite the Matrix never appearing or being mentioned in the movie. Similar to the ''Masterpiece Movies Series'' toy above, Optimus Prime can tow the [[Combat Deck (G1)#MP44|trailer]] included with MP-44 [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#MP44|Convoy]].

:Unfortunately, due to reduced parts count and possibly cost-cutting measures, the trigonal [[kibble]] on his shoulders ends up slightly protruding on the vehicle mode. This also results in a somewhat amusing appearance for the truck mode, as the placement of the said kibble looks like it has a pair of cat-ears.

:Hasbro [https://www.instagram.com/p/CLtuM8DJeY9/ stock photography] depicts much brighter and saturated colors, as well as clear blue windows. TakaraTomy stock photography (right), which was revealed months later, features darker, more film-accurate colors, and clear grey windows. Despite both versions of the toy using Takara Tomy's stock photography, only Takara Tomy's version includes the accurate grey windows, as well as unpainted red plastic sun visors. The box also features the peculiar (''especially'' for a Masterpiece figure) call-out "Articulated Head" depicting Optimus just... turning his head to the left. The photography is also strangely low resolution compared to previous releases in the line, possibly a consequence of 2020 pandemic complications.

:This toy was revealed on February 25, 2021 via live-stream. It is a [[Target]] exclusive in the United States and a [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive in Canada.

:This figure would be redecoed into MPM-12N [[Nemesis Prime (AOE)#Masterpiece|Nemesis Prime]].

:The toy was reissued in the fall of 2024 minus instructions.

:This Optimus Prime is a ''minor'' redeco of the One-Step Changer figure, ''omitting'' the paint apps on the knees, the flames on his shoulders, and changing the robot mode chest's deco. Along with his wavemate Bumblebee, Optimus Prime loses his pin on his leg, which is used to activate Stomp & Chomp Grimlock's pop-out weapons and gimmicks.

:Knight Armor Turbo Changer Optimus Prime is a Voyager-sized figure that transforms from truck to robot in just 2-steps: pulling his whole truck kibble to the front then fold down to complete the robot mode, although converting him back requires some few steps. His only articulation is the elbows, and he features 5mm compatible hands. He also features a "Knight Armor" gimmick, which consists of his mask popping out to his head with the press of the button on his chest. Take note that you need to flip back the mask manually before you turn him back into Truck Mode.

:The TakaraTomy release of the figure features extensive paint applications to resembles his on-screen appearances, and his pop-out mask is now vacuum metallized with some gold details.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (Legion Class, 2017)

:Legion Class Optimus Prime is a redeco/retool of the first ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends Class figure, with the deco resembling the paint job from Optimus Prime's Western Star "5700 OP" concept truck. While the main body is identical to the figure, the arms and legs are newly tooled, with simple assemblies for the wheels. The retooled legs now features a more solid stopping point, which prevents the center front grill/legs to swing back further. It should be noted that his flame decals are ''painted over'' the side windows.

:The newly tooled legs also feature unreasonably long pegs to secure their connection in vehicle mode. They have a tendency to snap off over time, though this doesn't affect the toy too much.

:In 29th August to 29th September, the entire 1st wave of ''The Last Knight'' Legion Class figures that almost ''massively'' shelfwarmed in Malaysia's Toys"R"Us stores were sold as a giveaway item for the customers who purchased ''The Last Knight'' toys for RM200 (approx $46) in a single receipt.

:"Cybertron Optimus Prime" now features a darker grey plastic, and mostly shares the same paint mask to the original Deluxe class figure, with added paint details on his head and the mesh-like pattern on the front of his "entry" mode. The silver paint on his chest was slightly changed from the original and he lacks the paint on his feet, his "headlights", and the top of his "entry" mode. Lastly, he features Cyberglyphics on his vehicle mode windows, and the rear sides of the vehicle. His flame attachment is now cast in translucent red plastic with orange sprays.

:Although ''MechTech'' Optimus Prime's deco is similar to the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Deluxe Class toys 2|first Deluxe Class figure]], some of his parts (robot shoulder flaps, chest piece/truck front) were recast in blue plastic (with the chest being painted red), and his paint applications on the pelvis, headlights & thighs are omitted.

He still retains the light-piping gimmick, but cast in clear plastic, with the eyeballs being (halfheartedly) painted with clear blue.

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

:This Voyager-sized Optimus Prime has a similar transformation scheme to [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#Generations|''Age of Extinction'' Voyager Class Galvatron]], notably the shoulders, rooftop backpack, and the leg/wheels combo based on his Leader Class figure. He features a similar but different transformation scheme, which results in a somewhat clean robot mode, although most of his vehicle kibble hangs on his back. He also features the sword & the shield based on his final design in the movie, albeit the sword being painted similarly to the Armor Knight Optimus Prime's sword. His sword can store underneath his Vehicle mode or his robot mode backpack, while the shield can be stored on the truck's fifth wheel hitch, which can also tow the trailer included from the Japanese exclusive [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#VoyagerTrailer|Mechtech Voyager]]. Although the pectoral armor can be slightly pushed up a little bit further, the pieces have to actually stop at where the rectangular peg holes are located.

:Surprisingly, this was also the first Hasbro exclusive transforming Movie Optimus Prime figure to be based on the final design seen in ''Age of Extinction''. He even features the forearms that Prime had before obtaining the Sword of Judgement, which unfortunately means that he is inaccurate to his appearance in the battle of Hong Kong and the entirety of ''The Last Knight''. The sword's blade is still painted as the heated-up version from the concept art.

:Like the larger ''First Edition'' figure, this toy is a rather egregious [[shellformer]], to the point where you can actually separate the robot mode from his vehicle shell if you ''really'' wanted to.

: The 2018 giveaway event-exclusive [[Quad Barrel Shotgun#Generations|Quad Barrel Shotgun]] accessory can be used for this figure.

**''Accessories'': Sword, Shield

:This exclusive redeco of Optimus Prime features darker shades of red and blue than his other releases and has extensive paint applications to resemble his on-screen appearances in ''[[Transformers: The Last Knight (film)|The Last Knight]]'', particularly his Nemesis Prime alter ego. To that end, he features movie-accurate flame patterns, which are larger and more elaborate than the ones on the regular release or the SDCC exclusive, on his vehicle mode exterior and robot pectoral armor. His eyes and sword are also painted metallic purple, but his shield is completely unpainted for some reason.

:Dark Optimus Prime could be purchased along with advance tickets for ''[[Transformers: The Last Knight (film)|The Last Knight]]'' via movie cards from June 25, 2017, on the Omni7 website, and from September 29, 2017, if the item was purchased without advance tickets.

*'''Optimus Prime''' (SDCC 2017 exclusive Voyager Class, 2017)
**''Accessories'': Sword, Shield, Tire piece

:The ''San Diego Comic-Con 2017'' exclusive Optimus Prime figure is another redeco of the ''Premier Edition'' figure, which aims for a more movie-accurate look than the original by still sharing the same paint masks, but replacing the chest's deco with flames and adding extra paint applications on the legs, arms, chest, head, tire rims, both sides of the engine compartment, and the sword and shield... but for some reason still sports the movie-inaccurate blue 'collar', as well as the smaller, less accurate vehicle flame tampographs instead of the more movie-accurate ones used on Dark Optimus Prime. His Autobot insignia is also moved on the upper back section of the air dam. He is packaged in a stylish, display-case-like-box similar to later ''Transformers: Alternators'' releases and the Hasbro Toy Shop/SDCC 2011 exclusive figure.

:Hilariously, Optimus Prime also comes with an ''authentic tire piece'' from a Western Star 5700XE truck (no seriously, look it up.). His stock photo is also ''slightly'' mistranformed: his pectoral armor is not rotated properly in robot mode. Also, the fifth wheel hitch pieces seem to be missing on his robot mode stock photos.

:Remaining stock was sold through Hasbro Toy Shop.

:This redeco of the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Voyager Class toys 4|''Dark of the Moon'' Voyager Class Optimus Prime]] figure features a really unusual deco pattern consisting of red transparent tires, the vehicle front grill and fuel tanks (the fenders remained opaque red due to unpaintable plastic). Some of his parts like the vehicle front hood and the truck roof feature a pattern similar to the ones used for the [[Tech Spec]]s in the ''Generation 1'' toys. He features a new sword and shield accessory, which can be used to decode the patterns.

:In the United Kingdom, this Optimus Prime was released as an Argos exclusive along with several other sets branded as part of the ''Reveal the Shield'' [[subline imprint]]. His United States release was initially claimed to be exclusive to [[Target]] by online retailers from Asia, but even though the other ''Reveal the Shield'' products eventually became available at Target, Voyager Class Optimus Prime was released as a [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusive in the United States instead, complete with a "Toys"R"Us exclusive" sticker. Also, both his United States and Asian releases lack the "Reveal the Shield" logo the United Kingdom release has (but still feature the "Reveal hidden images" call-out).

:In May 2017, the figure was released as a lucky draw item by Coca-Cola, along with the limited edition cans, as part of China's promotion for the movie. On the other hand, Shadow Spark Optimus Prime also became a ''massive'' shelfwarmer in several Asian Toys"R"Us stores.

:This Optimus Prime is a somewhat/nearly screen-accurate redeco of the Leader Class figure, but uses the original Leader mold instead of the Armor Knight retool unfortunately. In comparison to the first ''Age of Extinction'' Leader Class figure, his vacuum-metalized front truck bumper, sun visors, robot mode chest, smokestacks and side tanks chest was omitted, revealing the grey plastic underneath. His chromed chest was also stripped of chrome for adding paint operations, his shield was unpainted, and both of his sword and truck mode windows were casted in colorless plastic. He also features some extra silver paint on his robot mode forehead, and his white-colored Autobot insignia is slightly tampographed on the left.

**''Japanese ID Number'': '''TLK-15'''
**''Accessories'': Temenos Sword, Calibur Axe, Overshield/Fifth Wheel Hitch, Energon Sword (limited edition)

:Calibur Optimus Prime is a retool of the Armor Knight Optimus Prime figure, itself a retool of the original ''Age of Extinction'' Leader Class figure. In clever bit of [[partformer|partforming]], the fifth wheel hitch now forms a handheld shield based on the one used in [[Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon]], which results in a backpack-less robot mode. As such, the shield that came with prior versions has been omitted (though it's still fully compatible, of course). The figure can be transformed without partsforming if so desired, leaving a backpack like the orginal leader, but the sword will not store on his back due to the remolding. He also comes with an axe based on the one used in the third film.

:The initial release of the figure comes with a limited edition Energon Sword. According to [https://amzn.asia/d/9lU57nG Amazon Japan's page] and the instructions, the included Energon Sword & Axe is compatible with ''Movie The Best'' MB-11 Optimus Prime figure (seen above), which basically makes Calibur Optimus Prime a weapon expansion pack for said figure.

:The back of the packaging features a small typo, notably the word "kinetic" being written as "''Kinetic'''k'''''". The bio also denotes the elemental metal as "Cyber-Matter" living metal, which is a term that originates from the [[Aligned continuity family]]. Oddly, TakaraTomy's stock photo of the robot mode figure was later used as a cutout "battle figure" included with Telebi Magazine's [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#TVMagazineEZ|Burning Megatron]].

:The Calibur Axe was later redecoed into "Bronze Calibur Axe", as a giveaway accessory for the 3rd ''The Last Knight Final Battle Campaign'' in Japan. In 2018, Optimus Prime is released along with [[Megatron (Movie)/toys#TLKLeader|Megatron]] as part of the TakaraTomy Mall exclusive "Optimus Prime VS Megatron" set.

:Released as part of a new line called ''[[Transformers Tribute]]'', Orion Pax is a redeco of ''Titans Return'' [[Kup (G1)/toys#Titans Return|Sergeant Kup]], and transforms from a red-and-blue Cybertronic pickup truck which is also an homage to <s>Generation 1 [[Crosshairs (G1)#Generation 1|Crosshairs]]'s vehicle mode</s> [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#Collector's Edition|Orion Pax's original e-HOBBY toy]]. His Titan Master, retooled from [[Recoil (G1)#Generations|Flintlock]], features a new face that is based on the [[Optimus Prime (G1)#Deluxe|''Thrilling 30'' Orion Pax toy]]. As a redeco of the Kup mold, Orion Pax still suffers the leg panel misassembly.

:The set also includes a redeco of [[Optimus Prime (WFC)/toys#Generations|''Generations War for Cybertron'']] Optimus Prime figure, which changes the original figure's dark red plastic to a brighter, more vibrant red, changes the gray plastic to a darker charcoal tone, changes the "windows" from gray to nearly black, and replaces most of the original figure's pink-ish red paint details (which were yellow on the redeco from the "Rage over Cybertron" three-pack) to teal.

:The use of a G1-based Orion Pax design and an Aligned-based Optimus Prime design with Movie Optimus Prime packaging art makes it hard to know where on the wiki this should go, but given the general movie-themed bent of the ''Tribute'' line, we're putting it here. Continuing the tradition, the 2-pack was first released in some Asian countries like Taiwan without any prior announcement from Hasbro itself.

**''Accessories'': Two [[Dual Energon Swords|Energon Sword]]s, "Forest Fight" backdrop (1st version)

:''[[Studio Series]]'' Optimus Prime transforms from a robot into a Peterbilt 379 semi-truck. He comes with a pair of [[Dual Energon Swords|Energon Sword]]s, which can be mounted onto his arms or store on the back of his robot mode or truck mode. The figure combines engineering concepts from his ''Age of Extinction'' Voyager Class figure with techniques previously used on ''Prime: First Edition'' [[Optimus Prime (WFC)/toys#Prime: First Edition|Optimus Prime]]. He also features a more subdued color scheme compared to other Optimus Prime figures. Like the rest of the ''Studio Series'' figures, the figure prioritizes robot mode [[scale]] and thus stands shorter than his Voyager Class wavemate [[Starscream (Movie)/toys#Studio Series|Starscream]]. The CG renders depict him possessing long smokestacks, but the final product has them shortened... again. He also comes with a cardboard backdrop display depicting the forest battle from ''Revenge of the Fallen''.

:While the 5mm compatible arms can fit with most weapons with the same post size, some of the weapons' handles can barely fit on it due to either the slightly thickened tab or sculpted thin panels.

:The rear truck cabin/back kibble can turn slightly floppy over time in robot mode, as there are no tabs and holes to secure it. Despite being labeled as the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' version of the character, this mold is not meant to combine with the later released [[Jetfire (Movie)#Studio_Series|Jetfire]], although it can be achieved with some [[Fan mode|fiddling]]. However, it ''can'' carry (but not combine with) ''Studio Series'' 44 Optimus Prime's trailer.

:While stock photos and renders show the figure with a faceplate, this [https://www.facebook.com/transformers/photos/a.153259298077606.36631.146805978722938/1859790330757819/?type=3&theater image] posted by the Transformers Facebook page shows him with his mouth exposed.

:Released to commemorate the 10th anniversary of ''[[Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'' (though sold under the first ''Transformers'' film's branding), this ''Studio Series'' Optimus Prime is an extensive retool of the figure above, featuring many new parts, namely a new backpack, chest piece, back of thighs, forearms, a (removable) abdominal area, and lower legs with a pair of non-transforming fenders. These new parts lead to [[Show-accuracy|a better resemblance to his appearance in the first two movies]] and allow him to combine with ''Studio Series'' [[Jetfire (Movie)#Studio_Series|Jetfire]] to form "Jetwing Optimus Prime," while resulting in a somewhat more involved transformation. His color scheme features a much higher contrast than the previous release. Inexplicably, he has silver paint apps added on his forearms that actually make him ''less'' accurate than if it were left as the bare red plastic underneath. Unfortunately, as a trade-off for having a more accurate robot mode, his vehicle mode suffers; his front drive tires lift off the ground, he’s missing the toolboxes behind his fuel tanks, some of his robot mode kibble is exposed beneath his doors, and several of the floodlights above his windshield are gone.

:Instead of Energon Swords, he now comes with an [[Ion blaster]] like that used in the battle of [[Mission City]]. It can be stored on various rectangular peg holes in Prime's vehicle mode or on the larger rectangular pegs on his cab nose/forearms or on the robot mode's back. While this Optimus figure can use the first mold's blades, the new molding prevents the swords from being properly stored on the robot's back, and using the intended "underslung" grip displaces his forearm armor slightly. He also comes with a cardboard backdrop display depicting the highway fight with [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|Bonecrusher]] from the first ''Transformers'' film. Since the Leader Class figure below is a redeco of this one, it should come as no surprise that this one is fully compatible with the trailer and jet pack.

:The panels with the fuel tanks are connected to his back by small friction pegs, and have a tendency to pop off during transformation, though they can easily be reattached. This was fixed in later versions of the mold. As the front grills rely on a hook-and-tab assembly to complete the truck mode and combined with the fact that they're molded in translucent plastic completely painted over in silver, the painted tabs can wear down and break off during transformation, leaving a gap in the front of the truck mode. Care must be taken when combining him with Jetfire, as it can place much stress on the hinges that the grills are connected to.

:The packaging stock photo features him having a misassembled hip, which is facing backward. Speaking of misassembly, a small number of Optimuses have two left or right upper arms. These errors prevent the front section from fully transforming. This can be identified by viewing the front section while he's still in-package.

:His rear wheels were later reused for [[Optimus Prime (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|''Earthrise'' Optimus Prime]], while the front wheels appear to have been slightly retooled for use on the ''Earthrise'''s trailer as well.

:The third ''Studio Series'' Optimus Prime is based on his appearance in ''[[Bumblebee (film)|Bumblebee]]'', and as such closely resembles the [[Optimus Prime (G1)|G1 Optimus design]]. He transforms into an unlicensed approximation of a 1970s Marmon cab-over truck, rather than the Freightliner he appears as during the film's final scene. As a result, the truck frame is about half the length of the one used in the him, lacking the prominent gap between the gas tanks and the rear axle, but this makes him appear closer to the truck he turned into in G1. Optimus comes with the [[Ion blaster]] he is seen wielding in the film's Cybertron sequences and a backdrop featuring the [[Golden Gate Bridge]] where he meets up with Bumblebee. The blaster can peg into the fifth wheel hitch in vehicle mode.

:While his truck mode scales with most of the ''Studio Series'' brethren, Optimus's robot mode shares the same height as the other Optimuses in this section, which means that he towers over his original size in the film. Unlike his appearance in the movie, this Optimus's design closely resembles [[Mark Yang]]'s concept art of the character, complete with flat feet. Unlike most of the ''Studio Series'' figures, this Optimus doesn't have any insignia tampographed or sculpted on. The silver weathering on his stomach varies from figure-to-figure.

:Unfortunately, the grey lower leg panels tend to disconnect/dislodge if the feet are swiveled, or if the pressure is applied downwards while standing. The silver-painted hinged panels on the sides of his truck mode (and to an extent, the painted crotch) are prone to chipping due to being involved in the transformation.

:Some versions of this figure feature tabs on the top of the inside of the front window frame, that have no hole to peg into on the robot torso, seeming to be remnants of a late-stage design change, that do interfere with vehicle mode holding together.

:This toy was one of the items that were released as part of Hasbro's Transformers 35th Anniversary promotional mailer box<ref>https://news.tfw2005.com/2019/05/21/transformers-35th-anniversary-promo-box-in-hand-388546</ref> and was also given a repaint as part of TakaraTomy's own [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#35th Anniversary|35th Anniversary exclusive set]].

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

:This Optimus Prime is a redeco/retool of the second toy with a new stomach area that is molded to be accurate to his appearance in ''Dark of the Moon'', complete with a new trailer forming his weapons platform and combat armor. His arsenal includes two cannons, an energon axe, an energon sword, a shield, and a slightly redecoed (de-decoed?) Ion blaster from the second toy, losing its blackened barrel. He also comes with a unique backdrop depicting his confrontation with the [[Driller]] in the Battle of Chicago. His fellow Leader Class Autobot, [[Jetfire (Movie)#Studio_Series|Jetfire]], comes packaged with a replacement ''Transformers'' and ''Revenge of the Fallen''-accurate abdomen piece, allowing them to combine... though the piece is color-matched to Optimus's first ''Studio Series'' 05 release, a figure that lacks this figure's new molding and is thus incompatible with Jetfire. In addition to the new deco and molding, the hinges on his back that the panels with the fuel tanks are attached to now have pins, preventing the pieces from popping off when swiveling them into position during conversion. Care should still be taken when transforming the front grill, as the tab needed to hold it together still has the potential to break on this version of the mold.

:In terms of deco, Optimus features gradient orange paint on his forearms/truck front which the Voyager Class release didn't have, while the formerly transparent parts are now cast in opaque blue plastic, with both his real and [[kibble#"Faux-parts"|faux windows]] painted silver. Meanwhile, the CG stock renders feature several color and deco details that are inaccurate to the final toy; notably, the joints on his grille section are shown to be orange rather than gray, the windows are shown to be transparent rather than opaque, and all the weapons are shown to be painted, even though the only weapon that actually features ''any'' paint on the final toy is the sword. Conversely, both the CG render ''and'' the near-final stock photo of the robot mode show the new abdomen piece as being painted in a single red color, while the final product (including the TakaraTomy stock photos) have the details in the center section painted in movie-accurate silver.

:The CG render on the front packaging is a rather lazily edited version of the Optimus Prime art (complete with ''Revenge of the Fallen''-styled abdomen), with the Jetwing unit slapped on his back. There are also a few obvious design oversights, with no actual means of attaching the shield to Prime's arm in a shield-like manner, the handle of the axe colliding with the arm panel if pushed in all the way, and no official instructions on how to store the Ion blaster in the trailer. At least for the blaster, it can still use the ports on the truck as before, and there is sufficient space in the trailer itself to store the blaster or a few other accessories. And while Prime himself has been improved to prevent parts popping off, the dark grey "shoulder straps" on the Jetwing have a frustrating tendency to pop off due to the raised rectangular details directly under them, meant to hold them in place with friction but instead causing the part to flex and deform under pressure.

: Despite the figure's size classification, Prime himself is Voyager-sized (obviously, seeing as he's a retool of a previous ''Studio Series'' Voyager). The Leader Class price point comes from the extra accessories that he comes packaged with.

:"15th Anniversary" Optimus Prime is a redeco of the second ''Studio Series'' figure, featuring slightly minimized/altered paint applications and plastic color changes. Aside from that, he doesn't come with the Ion blaster included with the regular release but instead comes with the two swords included with the original ''Revenge of the Fallen'' version of the mold, cast in a slightly more reddish clear orange and painted a brighter silver instead of gunmetal. In terms of deco, Optimus's metallic gray plastic is replaced with a light shade of grayish silver, the paint operations on his forearms and lower legs are omitted, and the previously colorless plastic used on the real/faux truck windows is now translucent black. The new blue paint used for most of the torso/truck cab is a noticeably different shade compared to the blue plastic, whereas the blue paint on the original release was a much closer match to the plastic.

:Interestingly, the robot mode stock render and photo show Optimus wielding his swords with the blades on the inside of the arms instead of the outside. Unlike the original SS-32 release, this release comes with the securely pinned back hinges used for the Leader Class figure. There has been one instance of yellowing on the grey plastic used, but it is not known if it is a widespread issue or an isolated instance. As with previous versions of this mold, the tabs that hold the front grill together in truck mode have the potential to break.

:This figure comes in an [[Amazon (website)|Amazon]] exclusive 5-pack alongside redecoes of ''Studio Series'' [[Bumblebee (Movie)/toys#SS15thAnniversary|Bumblebee]], [[Ironhide (Movie)/toys#SS15thAnniversary|Ironhide]], [[Ratchet (Movie)/toys#SS15thAnniversary|Ratchet]] and [[Jazz (Movie)#SS15thAnniversary|Jazz]], released to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the first live-action [[Transformers (film)|''Transformers'' film]]. The pack comes with a unique reversible backdrop depicting the alley where the Autobots first met Sam on one side and the exterior of Sam's house on the other.

:"''Revenge of the Fallen'' 15th Anniversary" Optimus Prime is another release of the [[#SS32|SS-32 mold]] with [[#Studio Series|SS-05]]'s Energon swords, though this time both sport their original decos. The digital render and stock photos for this release have him holding the swords correctly.

Although this version of Optimus is technically for the first movie, its inclusion makes sense as this mold is the one that combines with Jetfire. The box meanwhile reuses SS-05's package art.

Optimus' truck mode can also be attached with the Energon Igniters core, and due to the toy being lightweight, it can propel his vehicle mode forward very quickly, making him a fast-moving truck.

:Due to its simplified transformation, Optimus' robot shoulder parts ended up sticking out from his truck mode, and his upper cabin panel ends up being integrated with his head. Unlike most Speed Series toys, he also shares a similar pivoting shoulder articulation from his ''Reveal the Shield'' counterpart, and his Energon Igniter port ends up under his right foot in robot mode rather than on his knee.

:Released as part of the ''[[Buzzworthy Bumblebee]]'' subline, Optimus Prime is now based on his appearance in ''Rise Of The Beasts'' - reusing only the windshield, wheels, and some transformation cues from [[#SS38|SS-38 Optimus Prime]]. He is rather impressively made using only 4 new molds compared to the usual 9. Optimus includes a new blade and arm cannon accessory. The blade can be handheld or mounted on his wrists, and both accessories can be used on either arm or stored on his back.

:He transforms into an unlicensed approximation of a Freightliner FLT. Both accessories can be stored in the truck bed. The vehicle mode is slightly mistransformed in the stock images; the panels with the Autobot symbols on the front of his arms should be folded down and the fuel tanks in his legs should be folded out. He shares some transformation elements with MPM-12 Prime above, particularly in the arms.

:The figure is rather notorious for a number of design choices that are questionable at best, and outright designs flaws at worst. The shoulder articulation is extremely limited, resulting in him only being able to shrug when his arms are raised to the sides. Due to the mold and budget limitations, the truck has some prominent kibble in the rear and lacks a fifth wheel hitch. He also features a design flaw in the grey panels on each forearm designed to open and allow the transformation of the hands. If opened all the way, a surface on the interior of each panel obstructs the fist you're trying to fold out or in and places undue stress on the wrist joint which can lead to Prime's hands snapping off at the base of their mushroom peg connection. So exercise caution and only open these grey panels to 45 degrees which paradoxically affords more clearance, rather than the full 90 to try and avoid this. In some copies, his transformation scheme causes his rearmost tires to lift off the ground.

:Whether by coincidence or by design, his chest can open up along with a third panel (that includes a faux grill not seen in either mode for some reason) in a manner that replicates his Matrix chamber in the 1986 movie, though no Matrix of Leadership toys can fit inside without impeding his transformation.

:In the United States, this figure is exclusive to [[Target]] stores like the rest of the ''Buzzworthy Bumblebee'' line, though a small quantity was also offered for preorder via [[Hasbro Pulse]].

:If you really wanted to, you can swap the head with SS-38 Optimus to give that one a more accurate head, since they share the same sized ball joint.

:As per [[Hasbro]] designer [[Evan Brooks]] in the [[Hasbro Pulse]] livestream debuting ''[[Studio Series]]'' ''Rise of the Beasts'' [[Optimus Primal (ROTB)#Optimus Primal|Optimus Primal]], "spare space on the tooling" was used to pack in an axe accessory with Primal specifically intended for this figure that was costed out of the initial release.<ref>[[June 20]], 2023's [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjLY0uamTKM Hasbro Pulse Transformers Fanstream] on YouTube, with [[Ben MacCrae]], [[Mark Maher]], [[Evan Brooks]], and [[Rich Pellegrino]]</ref>

==Notes==
*The original design for what would become ''Dark of the Moon'''s [[#UltimatePrime|Ultimate Optimus Prime]] toy was significantly different. As Hasbro's toy designers did not know the purpose of the trailer in the film yet, they created a trailer that opened up to reveal a rotating cannon that Optimus would sit in. Once it was revealed to become a jetpack, the designers had to rush to redesign the toy. Takara's take became [[#Supreme Class toys|Jetwing Optimus Prime]], though it is currently unknown if theirs was also a last minute change.<ref>{{citesocial|link=https://twitter.com/playwiththistoo/status/1595146431534600199|quote=That Hasbro trailer was very last minute.

:''Tidal Wave is a [[Decepticon]] from the [[Unicron Trilogy continuity family]].''

[[File:Tidal wave looms ps2.jpg|upright=2.2|thumb|Like a vast predatory <s>bird</s> fish...]]
'''Tidal Wave''' (sometimes '''Mirage''') is a colossal powerhouse, one of the largest Decepticons under [[Megatron (Armada)|Megatron]]'s command. His power is backed up by a brain that doesn't exactly run at optimal speeds; he's not so much stupid as he is single-minded and easily frustrated, although [[Pokeformers|his tendency to shout his own name repeatedly as a sort of battle cry]] doesn't do much to refute his reputation as a knucklehead. In battle he is merciless, an unyielding engine of destruction.

He is unquestionably loyal to Megatron and his ideals and will quickly sign up with anyone that promises power to the Decepticon cause. He may or may not have a [[Deathsaurus (G1)|soft spot for children]].<ref>One of the ''Super Link'' [[commercial bumper]]s features Mirage introducing himself, then telling the good little children out there that it's nice to meet them.</ref>

Tidal Wave's [[Mini-Con]] partner is [[Ramjet (Armada)|Ramjet]].

[[File:Armada V4 Tidal Wave.jpg|left|thumb]]
On [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]], Tidal Wave rescued [[Megatron (Armada)|Galvatron]] when the [[Decepticon]] leader was being transported to prison. The two combined, and their power was too much for [[Overload (Armada)|Overload]] and [[Rollout (Armada)|Rollout]] to handle. Their battle was cut short when Ramjet pointed out the gigantic form of [[Unicron]] in the sky. {{Storylink|Armada Volume 4}}

[[File:Energon V4 Decepticons.jpg|thumb]]

In another battle, Mirage, along with [[Demolishor (Armada)|Demolishor]], [[Cyclonus (Armada)|Snow Cat]], and [[Shockblast]], were sicced on a weakened [[Optimus Prime (Armada)|Optimus Prime]], but were blasted away by [[Wing Saber (Energon)|Wing Saber]]. {{storylink|Energon Volume 4}}

[[File:ArmadaTidalShockwave.jpg|thumb|left|220px]]
After leading the Decepticons to victory on the planet [[Dabola]], {{storylink|Awakening (Armada)|Awakening}} Tidal Wave was brought to [[Earth]] by the Decepticon strategist [[Thrust (Armada)|Thrust]] in an attempt to bolster [[Megatron (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Megatron]]'s forces. He passed [[Neptune]] on his way to [[Earth]], {{storylink|Detection}} before coming upon the Autobots and Decepticons locked in a beachfront battle. Thrust's claims of Tidal Wave's prowess initially conflicted with the newcomer's... lack of grace. This was exemplified when [[Hot Shot (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Hot Shot]] and [[Blurr (Armada)|Blurr]] capsized the huge warship and sent it to the bottom of the deep. However, Tidal Wave quickly recovered by transforming into his massively powerful [[robot mode]] and quickly sent the Autobots scrambling for cover. {{storylink|Awakening (Armada)|Awakening}}
[[File:ArmTVTidalWave.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4|Crumbs, chief.]]
Pounding the Autobots with firepower, Thrust called out to Tidal Wave to initiate his party piece. Tidal Wave transformed and split into three component vehicle sections (which somehow shrank in size), headed for Megatron and Powerlinxed with him, forming a combination known as ''Burning Megatron''. Megatron declared that "The Power is Mine!" before setting off in pursuit of Jet Optimus. Tidal Wave gave Megatron flight capability and an overwhelming amount of firepower which kept Jet Optimus at bay long enough for Megatron to slice the connection point between Optimus Prime and [[Jetfire (Armada)|Jetfire]] with the Star Saber. However, Optimus Prime managed to obtain the [[Requiem Blaster (Armada)|Requiem Blaster]] and used it to injure both Tidal Wave and Megatron, forcing the Decepticons to retreat {{storylink|Desperate}} to the [[Moon (moon)|Moon]] for repairs. {{storylink|Runaway}}

Tidal Wave later participated in the Decepticons' operation to steal the Blaster. When the Decepticons learned the Autobots had not brought the super-weapon into the open, Megatron had Tidal Wave abandon Starscream on the battlefield and combined with him to attack the undermanned enemy headquarters. There, Megatron used the extra power Tidal Wave granted him to take the Requiem Blaster by force. {{storylink|Sacrifice}} After Starscream cracked and attacked Megatron, Tidal Wave was sent after him to Earth when the rogue Decepticon jet escaped their moon base with the Star Saber in his possession. The Autobots initially assumed both Decepticons were part of a combined attack, but eventually came to Starscream's assistance against Tidal Wave when the Decepticon shot him down. Hot Shot nailed Tidal Wave in the eye with his axle cannon but the powerful Tidal Wave recovered quickly and caused problems for Jet Optimus, who couldn't so much as scratch him. This prompted Starscream to toss the Star Saber to the Autobot leader which he used to slice off one of Tidal Wave's chest guns and forced the Decepticon to retreat again. {{storylink|Regeneration (Armada)|Regeneration}}

[[File:Desperate Tidal Wave blocked.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4]]

Tidal Wave was present when Starscream led the Autobots into the heart of the Decepticon base to liberate the captive Mini-Cons. He handily took down Side Swipe, then moved to the chamber where the [[Hydra Cannon]] was under construction to prevent the Mini-Cons from being lost to the Autobots. On the way, he encountered [[Perceptor (Armada)|Perceptor]] and Hot Shot, the latter of whom distracted him long enough for the former to penetrate deeper into the Decepticon base.

Though Hot Shot fought hard, Tidal Wave was simply too big and powerful for the young 'bot to defeat alone, so he fled to the construction room with Tidal Wave in hot pursuit. Tidal Wave arrived just in time to see the Mini-Cons flee with Perceptor. [[Smokescreen (Armada)|Smokescreen]] then arrived and the two fought for a while before the Autobots retreated, their objectives achieved. {{storylink|Rescue}}

[[File:Rescue tidal wave kicked.jpg|thumb|right|upright=1.4]]

Megatron then sent Tidal Wave to [[Mars (planet)|Mars]] as part of a trap for Starscream and Jetfire. He beat up Starscream in the sky, but lost him in a dust storm. He encountered both the Autobots, as well as their Mini-Cons, shortly thereafter in orbit where they had located [[Firebot (Armada)|Firebot]]. Megatron and Thrust arrived to help him at this point, but all three were forced back when the three Mini-Con weapons reacted to their close proximity, and unleashed a powerful wave of energy. {{storylink|Mars (episode)|Mars}}

Tidal Wave participated in the attack during which Starscream returned to the Decepticons, bringing the Star Saber and Skyboom Shield with him. Once again, he fought Hot Shot and Jet Optimus. {{storylink|Crack (episode)|Crack}} When Optimus Prime and Jetfire arrived to stop the Decepticon ship from unleashing the power of the [[Hydra Cannon]] against Earth, Tidal Wave was able to use cloaking technology to sneak up on the Autobot leader. He then proceeded to pin down Optimus, only for Jetfire to throw Starscream at him, allowing Optimus to wrestle free from his grasp. Nonetheless, thanks to Tidal Wave's and the other Decepticons' efforts, Optimus was forced to sacrifice himself to stop the super-weapon's blast from reaching the planet.{{storylink|Crisis (Armada)|Crisis}} Tidal Wave later combined with Megatron to defeat Side Swipe, {{storylink|Miracle (episode)|Miracle}} and again when they found themselves on [[Nemesis Prime (Armada)|Nemesis Prime]]'s world. Despite being combined with his leader, Tidal Wave was not given a power boost or new colors when the Mini-Cons repaired Megatron and the others who had been severely damaged by the dark clone. {{storylink|Puppet}} He presumably took part in Galvatron's conquest of Cybertron {{storylink|Uprising (Armada)|Uprising}} and later tried, with only partial success, to prevent Hot Shot from getting close to Galvatron. {{storylink|Dash (episode)|Dash}}

[[File:Cramp galvatron tidalwave.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.3]]

After that, Tidal Wave was assigned a squad to Decepticons and sent to clear an area of Autobots. He engaged Jetfire during this time, calling the Autobot a "show-off". {{storylink|Portent}} He again combined with Megatron when the Decepticon leader decided to approach Optimus Prime for some... aggressive negotiations. Jetfire managed to keep him occupied single-handedly during this time. {{storylink|Cramp}}

Tidal Wave attended the meeting during which the Autobots and Decepticons formed a temporary truce to combat the menace of [[Unicron]], notably shaking hands with Jetfire. {{storylink|Alliance}} After this, he combined with Galvatron in order to kill the traitorous Thrust, and then, with the similarly combined Optimus Prime and Jetfire, helped his commander penetrate deep into the core of Unicron, while he doubled back to keep the titan occupied. {{storylink|Union}} Though Tidal Wave participated on the final assault on Unicron, his efforts proved unnecessary; once Galvatron sacrificed himself to the dark god, there was no longer enough hatred in the universe to sustain Unicron, and he vanished from existence. The Transformers' war now at an end, Tidal Wave and his fellow Cybertronians stood united as a race, and begun rebuilding their war-torn planet. {{storylink|Mortal Combat}}

[[File:Energon-Tidal-Wave-Meets-Scorponok.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.66]]
After the end of the Unicron Battles, Tidal Wave loyally followed Galvatron's last request—that the Decepticons remain at peace with the Autobots. During the ten-year period that followed, Tidal Wave somewhere along the line changed not only his color palette but also his occupation—instead of being a warrior, he was now a guardian of the [[energon]] mines in the Solar System's asteroid belt.

[[File:Energonep3 shock shock shock.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4]]

Tidal Wave's post was one of the first targets of the [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcon]] hordes. {{storylink|Cybertron City (episode)|Cybertron City}} After being attacked and abducted, {{storylink|Energon Stars}} he was brought to [[Scorponok (Energon)|Scorponok]] and [[Alpha Quintesson]]'s base of operations where they convinced him to side with them by promising to revive Megatron, a deal which Tidal Wave eagerly agreed to despite clearly disliking Scorponok. He began by attacking the energon-mining facility at Desert City and managed to obtain a large amount of energon before being driven back by the Autobots. He attempted to retrieve a dropped raw energon star from one of the fallen Terrorcons which resulted in him being painfully shocked, leaving perminent, lightning-like scars across his body.{{storylink|Scorpinok (episode)|Scorpinok}} At some point thereafter, he met up with Cyclonus somewhere in space and gave him a quick run-down on the situation. Cyclonus liked the idea of reviving Megatron, but was skeptical that this goal could actually be achieved and continued to Earth.

After that, Tidal Wave led a force of Terrorcons to attack [[Mars City]] and steal its energon. Due to the city's weak defenses, he was able to grab all its energon and slaughter most of its guards and inhabitants before leaving.

[[File:E4 Tidal Wave.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4]]
Fresh from this success, he led an attack on [[Plains City]] alongside Scorponok where he faced off against his old allies Cyclonus and Demolishor. They were again repelled after a fierce battle against the Autobots, but this time Cyclonus came with them, having seen that Scorponok possessed [[Energon Sword|Megatron's sword]] and thus concluding that Megatron could be brought back to life with reasonable effort. {{storylink|Megatron's Sword}}

[[File:Energon-Cyclonus-Galvatron-Corpse.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66]]

Tidal Wave, Cyclonus, and Scorponok returned to Unicron's body where Tidal Wave showed Megatron's corpse to Cyclonus. After Cyclonus hitting the corpse failed to resurrect it, he and Tidal Wave began to question Scorponok over whether or not it was possible to bring Megatron back, given what state he was in. They were dismissively ordered to simply keep at their Energon-gathering tasks. Tidal Wave's team then tried to raid a recently discovered Energon vein in some snow mountains, but were driven away when the Autobots warped in an [[Cybertron City (city)|entire city]] atop of it. {{Storylink|The New Cybertron City}}

After this, the Autobots upgraded all their defenses around their energon sources, leading to a series of defeats for the Decepticons under Alpha Q's control. In frustration, Cyclonus kicked Megatron's corpse a few times in proxy revenge for all the times he'd mistreated them. Tidal Wave begged him not to do that and verbally defended Megatron when their leader's disembodied voice demanded that they treat him with more respect.

[[File:Decepticons Megatron Resurrected.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4]]
Seeing that Megatron's spark was causing trouble, Scorponok attempted to kill him outright but only succeeded in resurrecting him in a new body; at this, Tidal Wave was overjoyed and gleefully helped Megatron take control of Unicron's body from Alpha Q. He then followed Megatron in another attack on Plains City, during which Hot Shot lost an arm. {{storylink|Megatron Resurrected}} After this, they returned to their base where Tidal Wave was assigned to guard the recently inducted Scorponok. Scorponok wondered why Megatron didn't kill Optimus Prime in their last sortie and Tidal Wave told him to figure it out - in the event that he did, the rest of the Decepticons would start to trust him.

[[File:Energon-Decepticons-Flee-Tower.jpg|thumb|upright=1.4]]
Tidal Wave later took part in the Decepticon mission to [[Ocean City]], during which Demolishor returned to their ranks {{storylink|Megatron Raid}} for another raid on [[Moon (moon)|Earth's moon]]. {{storylink|Starscream the Mysterious Mercenary}} He also accompanied the Decepticons in their next attack on Ocean City, attacking from beneath the water but was like everyone else, repelled by the [[energon tower]]'s ''Autobot-flavored'' energon. {{storylink|Energon Tower (episode)|Energon Tower}} He was present when Megatron, for the first and only time, used the powers he gained from Unicron to restore Starscream's loyalty to the Decepticons. {{storylink|The Legend of Rodimus}}

After this, he observed a force of Alpha Q's Terrorcons investigating [[Jungle City]], and reasoned that there was probably energon to be had. The Decepticons attacked and made off with as much energon as they could, during which Tidal Wave attempted to destroy the energon tower. On this occasion, most of their efforts went to waste when the Autobots exploded the city to prevent the Decepticons from getting the energon, but the 'Cons still came out ahead. {{storylink|Crisis in Jungle City}}

He also took part in an attempt to capture [[Kicker Jones|Kicker]]. {{storylink|Kicker Beware!}} When this failed, Megatron got the idea that chucking some giant comet-shaped lumps of Unicron at Earth would obliterate the Autobots and assigned Tidal Wave to lead the efforts in pushing them across the gulf of space. Tidal Wave explained to Scorponok that this slow procession would scare the humans much more than having the projectiles appear near their planet without warning.

However, Megatron's grand plan just gave the humans and Autobots time to prepare and so the plan failed miserably. All the Decepticons fled back to Unicron. {{storylink|Energon Grid (episode)| Energon Grid}} Following this, Megatron ordered them to find Alpha Q, who would be the next potential target for retrieving a lot of energon. Demolishor and Tidal Wave protested that this would be nigh impossible, but Megatron would have none of it. Just before trying to track him down, Tidal Wave and Starscream were responsible for seeing that Scorponok took all his energon back to Megatron and didn't try to skim any off the top for Alpha Q. {{storylink|Rodimus Friend or Foe?}}

He later took part in a plan to lure out Alpha Q, using Scorponok as bait. However, it was [[Rodimus (Energon)|Rodimus]] who came to Scorponok's rescue. All the Decepticons present, Tidal Wave among them, exchanged fire with Rodimus's team and retreated when Megatron was injured. {{storylink|Go for Unicron!}} Some time after this battle, he received a message from Snow Cat that he had found energon on an icy planet and so the Decepticons set off in pursuit. He attacked the ''[[Miranda II]]'' alongside Megatron and, after making some initial gains, the two were forced back by Alpha Q's new [[Cruellock]] drones.

Still, this event ended well for Tidal Wave and the Decepticons. The Autobot's used the ''Miranda II's'' [[Energon Ring]] to destroy the Terrorcons, allowing the Decepticons to take all the planet's energon. {{storylink|The Return of Demolishor}} After that, he took part in a rather half-hearted attack on the ''Miranda II'' in deep space, and was again driven off. {{storylink|A Tale of Two Heros}} After that, the Autobots under Optimus Prime decided to attack Unicron and so the Decepticons went to defend their base, Tidal Wave paying particular attention to Optimus Prime. After fighting for a while, both Unicron and the ''Miranda II'' arrived at Cybertron where both sides fell back to regroup. {{storylink|Battle Stations}}

[[File:Energon-Shockblast-Rides-Tidal-Wave.jpg|thumb|right|upright=1.4]]

With the arrival of Unicron, Cybertron erupted into chaos. Megatron decided to recruit the unstable and dangerous Shockblast, who was currently imprisoned by the Autobot/Decepticon coalition for having refused to lay down his arms when the two factions made peace. Knowing of Shockblast's disregard for the lives of his fellow Decepticons, Tidal Wave vehemently opposed this plan, but to no avail. {{storylink|Alpha Q: Identity}} Shockblast [[radio]]ed Megatron regarding a cache of energon big enough to revive Unicron, and thus despite his objections to trusting Shockblast, Tidal Wave was assigned to lead a team to this location.

As soon as they met, Shockblast immediately took charge of the operation, sending the Decepticons to smash various towers. Tidal Wave refused to obey him and the two began squabbling with Shockblast actually using Tidal Wave as a flying surfboard from which to shoot down Autobots. Megatron ordered the Decepticons to bring Shockblast to him and, his loyalty to Megatron being greater than his hatred of Shockblast, Tidal Wave reluctantly did so. {{storylink|Shockblast: Rampage}}

Tidal Wave kept up his dislike and distrust of Shockblast, even going so far as to blame him for Unicron's highly destructive pangs of hunger. {{storylink|Survival Instincts}} When Unicron had been sated, Megatron sent the surviving Decepticons to destroy Cybertron's energy grid with Shockblast in command; Tidal Wave chafed at this, but still obeyed his commander. Shockblast ended up getting in over his head and so Tidal Wave tried to rescue him, getting hit by a falling energon tower in the process. {{storylink|Each One Fights...}} After this, Megatron rebuilt him as Mirage, a much smaller and sleeker form.

[[File:Energon-Mirage-1st-Appearance.jpg|left|thumb|upright=1.66]]

Mirage's first mission in his new body was to lead a large force of Terrorcons down to Cybertron as a distraction to allow Shockblast to sneak in with the main force. The plan worked and, despite Shockblast's incompetence, Unicron was restored to functionality. {{storylink|Unicron Unleashed}} The Autobots retaliated and Mirage helped defend Unicron. {{storylink|Open Fire!}} In the aftermath he helped Starscream save Megatron from Shockblast's attempted coup and then followed Megatron into the rift in space that had opened up in the meantime. {{storylink|Ripped Up Space}}

[[File:Energon-Mirage-Unleashed.jpeg|right|thumb|upright=1.66|I got smaller after my upgrade?]]

Mirage followed Megatron when he destroyed the first of Alpha Q's planets and also when they took a large amount of energon from [[Iron Planet]] while deliberately not helping the imprisoned Shockblast. {{storylink|Protection}} He then accompanied Megatron on his secret mission to Iron Planet. There, Mirage advised Megatron not to release Shockblast; Megatron agreed, threatening to 'rewire' the traitor which inspired Shockblast to offer to capture an Autobot as proof of his loyalty. Megatron did release Shockblast at this, above Mirage's objections; Mirage's fears on this particular occasion proves groundless as Shockblast did indeed capture [[Inferno (Energon)|Inferno]], allowing Megatron to forcibly turn him into a Decepticon. {{storylink|Imprisoned Inferno}}

When Scorponok went to harvest the energon from [[Jungle Planet (Energon)|Jungle Planet]], Mirage was among those who distracted the Autobots from this mission. {{storylink|Jungle Planet (episode)|Jungle Planet}} Mirage took part in the Decepticons' attempt to steal Jungle Planet's Energon before an energon tower was activated there. They met with failure. {{storylink|Bulkhead (episode)|Bulkhead}}

Some time later, he took part in the attack on the Autobot base on Ocean Planet, approaching the base of the energon tower from underwater and destroying it. The Autobots brought in another tower to Ocean Planet, and Mirage tried once more to destroy it, but this time was met by an Autobot team waiting for him underwater. They foiled Mirage's attempt at toppling this second tower, and the Decepticons were forced to flee as the [[energon grid (technology)|energon grid]] came online. {{storylink|Farewell Inferno}} ''When [[Planet Q]] was restored, Mirage was one of those sent to guard the palace in case Scorponok should get in and regain his memories, but was smashed out of the way by [[Ironhide (Energon)|Ironhide]]. As it turned out, however, they needn't have bothered. {{storylink|Return! Our Scorponok}}''

He later took part in another defense of Unicron against the Autobots, and was this time defeated by the presence of [[Omega Supreme (Energon)|Omega Supreme]] and the timely arrival of Inferno, now rebuilt as Roadblock, with a huge number of energon towers. {{storylink|Omega Supreme (episode)|Omega Supreme}} He remained with Unicron and again fought to defend the chaos bringer's body from those who would destroy it, successfully doing so long enough for Megatron to reattach the Planet-Eater's head to its body. {{storylink|A Heroic Battle}}

Optimus used the new powers granted to him by his combination with Omega Supreme to toss Snow Cat and Mirage around like rag dolls as he made his way towards Megatron's throne room. As soon as the pair recovered, they were hounded by a team of Autobots led by Hot Shot, leaving them unable to help Megatron gather the last bit of Energon he needed to fully awaken Unicron. Then... the voice of the Decepticon leader was heard throughout the planet, declaring Megatron was no more: Unicron was now in command of the Decepticon's body! {{storylink|The Power of Unicron}} Mirage, Snow Cat, and Demolishor struggled to escape the planet-eater's internal defenses. They failed, and ended up bound to Unicron's surface by energy-tendrils, giving them a front-row seat for Unicron/Megatron's battle with the giant-size, [[Primus]]-empowered Optimus Supreme. {{storylink|Optimus Supreme}} Fortunately for them, they were freed by a barrage of Autobot fire moments before Optimus destroyed Unicron, and captured by [[Landmine (Energon)|Landmine]]. {{storylink|Unicron Perishes}}

[[File:Snow Cat Ballerina.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4]]
Mirage, Snow Cat, and Demolishor were summarily put in prison where they shared a block with Six Shot. ''Oddly enough, given their history'', Mirage didn't seem to bear Six Shot any of the hatred he had for his brother. The four jailbirds were eventually released by Starscream. {{storylink|Ambition}} During the jailbreak, Mirage was separated from the others, but soon found them again. Not seeing any Autobots around, they just decided to blow up whatever was convenient. After a while, the others left him to attend to various tasks, leaving Mirage and Snow Cat to carry on creating chaos. {{storylink|Wishes}}
[[File:Energon-Mirage-Galvatron!.jpg|thumb|200px]]
After Six Shot collapsed the energon towers and flooded Cybertron with ''Decepticon-flavored'' energon gas, Mirage and Snow Cat rejoined the rest of the Decepticons in their commandeered control room, where they along with Demolishor were ready and willing to express their disdain for Six Shot when he activated the base defenses to fire on the ''Miranda II'' without Galvatron's express permission. {{storylink|Galvatron!}}

The Autobots were soon to find a way to break through the gas shroud and return to Cybertron; Mirage took part in the battle that followed, which concluded with the Autobots escaping underground. {{storylink|Break Through}}

At some point in time, both Mirage and a digital duplicate of his "Tidal Wave" body were among the Decepticons who hacked into an Autobot virtual training program that took the form of a tag-team fighting tournament. They lost their very first match against Hot Shot and Rodimus, but stuck around to watch Superion Maximus get thrashed by Bruticus Maximus and Constructicon Maximus later in the tournament. {{storylink|Distribution}}

Mirage, Demolishor, and Snow Cat followed Rad and [[Brian Jones|Dr. Jones]] to the energon core, having been misdirected by Starscream into thinking this was the location of the Super Energon pool. Dr. Jones led Snow Cat and Demolishor off to find the actual pool, leaving Mirage to guard Rad. {{storylink|The Omega Train}} After a while, [[Arcee (Energon)|Arcee]] and Kicker arrived on a rescue mission. Arcee fired an [[energon star]] at [[Primus]], temporarily re-energising the deity and causing it to drive Mirage out. {{storylink|Ironhide Team}} Mirage then rejoined the Decepticons to shoot Autobots on the surface. The Decepticons turned to the business of using the energon towers to move Cybertron through space, through the rift back to Alpha Q's realm. Mirage helped battle the Autobots as the planet moved through the rift, and later tried to defend the towers against Autobot attack. Both efforts were undermined by Six Shot's pettiness and insubordination, and Cybertron was brought to a halt. {{storylink|Formidable}}

Following this battle, the Decepticons retreated and Mirage, along with Demolishor and Snow Cat, was assigned to guard the unreliable Six Shot. Having apparently become stupider since his upgrade, Mirage and friends took seriously Six Shot's suggestion that they go and claim some super energon for themselves, and so they ran off and let their prisoner escape.

[[File:Snow Cat and Mirage.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.4]]
Six Shot managed to trap them and they were once again rescued by Starscream. The four blasted their way into the control room, only to find Six Shot was long gone. Then, thanks to [[Sally Jones|Sally]] who had since infiltrated the Decepticons' control room, the Autobots arrived to take control of the Decepticon base. Mirage despaired at how Galvatron had left them to their own devices in a distinctly soap operatic manner. {{storylink|Galvatron Terror}} He was impressed when Galvatron became a giant after immersing himself for a second time in the super energon pool. Mirage helped his fellow Decepticons make war against the Autobots even as the now Unicron-sized Galvatron took to space, fluttering about like skirmishing insects around the colossus. {{storylink|Destructive Power}}

Mirage was left unable to contribute further to the conflict when Optimus channeled Unicron's essence to grow in size and match Galvatron in stature. As the two titans crashed down on Jungle Planet, Mirage tried to step in anyways, only to be stopped by Starscream, who assured him his leader wouldn't want them to interfere even if they could. {{storylink|Spark (episode)|Spark}} When Galvatron flung himself into the energon sun to destroy Unicron's spark, ''Mirage loyally followed after him and seemingly ended his life''. {{storylink|The Sun}}

===Dreamwave ''Armada'' continuity===
====''Armada'' comic====
Tidal Wave was among the Decepticon troops allied with the Autobots and Mini-Cons during the battle against Unicron. He clutched his head in agony when the Chaos Bringer appeared and declared that this reality would be consumed. {{storylink|The End (Armada)|The End}}

====''Energon'' comic====
[[File:Aftershock TidalWaveIronhideFlashback.jpg|thumb|left|upright=1.6|...was it [[Dirge (G1)|Dirge]]?]]
Millions of years ago, Tidal Wave captured [[Ironhide (Energon)|Ironhide]] and coerced him into building [[seismic-shock warhead]]s for the Decepticons, which Megatron would use as a last resort to destroy the planet should he lose the war. Whenever Ironhide refused, an Autobot prisoner of war was executed. {{storylink|Aftershock (issue)|Aftershock}}

Ten years after the defeat of Unicron, Tidal Wave felt ill-at-ease during peacetime, and was recruited by [[Scorponok (Energon)|Scorponok]] into joining the [[Terrorcon (Energon)|Terrorcons]]. Starscream came upon the group and openly mocked them during a cathartic exercise, wherein they unloaded their weaponry into the open. Tidal Wave and Scorponok sent Starscream tumbling into a ore processor to be crushed, though Tidal Wave's leg was injured in the process. The other Terrorcons brought him before their master, and Tidal Wave met with Alpha Quintesson for the first time. His benefactor healed his wounds and granted him an upgraded "hyper-mode," boosting his offensive capabilities. The Terrorcons were then dispatched to Earth, in order to retrieve the energon that lay there, and revive Unicron. {{storylink|This Evil Reborn}}

On Earth, the Terrorcons attacked an [[Alterenergy]] excavation/drilling operation site. Tidal Wave and Insecticon began setting up Energon siphons when the humans retaliated by sending several fighter jets their way. To Tidal Wave's chagrin, the other Terrorcons got to destroy them all while he prepped their equipment. {{storylink|What Lies Beneath}} Once that distraction had been dealt with, Scorponok made it known that he planned to gather Energon for himself, and only deliver his table scraps to Unicron. Though Tidal Wave disagreed with short-changing their master, he was too intimidated by Scorponok to speak up about it. He later alerted Scorponok to the return of Battle Ravage, who had caught the humans [[Kicker Jones|Kicker]] and [[Alexis Thi Dang|Alexis]] while on a hunt. {{storylink|What Lies Beneath, Part Two}} Scorponok took immediate interest in Kicker Jones, as his analysis of the boy indicated that he could detect Energon from afar. Tidal Wave doubted that Kicker was anything special, but Scorponok reminded him that he wasn't on his team to think. Optimus Prime and his Autobots then traveled to Earth to battle the Terrorcons. Tidal Wave and his compatriots powered themselves with pure Energon before the battle, giving them an extra edge. Though the Terrorcons easily outclassed their opponents, they stopped short of destroying them when one of their Energon siphons was destroyed; Scorponok ordered his soldiers to retreat, so they could salvage as much Energon as possible. {{storylink|What Lies Beneath, Part Three}}

After coercing Kicker to find them another Energon vein, Scorponok left Tidal Wave behind to guard the siphons while he dealt with the Autobots. Hot Shot managed to get past the other Terrorcons, and rescued Kicker alongside [[Skyblast (Energon)|Skyblast]] and [[Strongarm (Energon)|Strongarm]]. The Autobots then fled, leaving Tidal Wave with the Energon canisters... which contained impure and highly volatile Energon. The stockpile detonated, and Tidal Wave was later forcibly retrieved from Earth so that Alpha Quintesson could discipline him for his failure. {{storylink|What Lies Beneath, Part Four}}

[[File:Multiplicity MirageAttacksOmnicons.jpg|thumb|right|upright=1.6|He's more verbose in this comic, but he still likes to say his name a lot.]]
Tidal Wave attacked Ironhide and [[Cliffjumper (Energon)|Cliffjumper]] while they were overseeing the construction of a new base on Cybertron. Using Cliffjumper's life as leverage, he forced Ironhide to reactivate the seismic-shock warheads for Scorponok's scheme to use on Earth. Ironhide foiled Tidal Wave when he armed the doomsday weapon, with the cold threat of destroying Cybertron rather than allowing the Decepticons destroy Earth. Tidal Wave panicked and left through a space bridge. {{storylink|Aftershock (issue)|Aftershock}}

While the other Decepticons and Terrorcons thought little of Tidal Wave, [[Alpha Quintesson]], however, saw something in him, and reformatted him into Mirage, noting as he did so that Scorponok had fallen out of [[Unicron]]'s favor. {{storylink|Multiplicity, Pt. 2}} Mirage, Slugslinger, and Sharkticon then tracked down Kicker and the Omnicons to the shores of the Black Sea and attacked, intent on once more capturing the energon-detecting boy. {{storylink|Multiplicity}} Mirage dominated the Omnicons on the battlefield, easily beating down both Skyblast and Arcee simultaneously while his acolytes took care of the other enemy 'bots. {{storylink|Multiplicity, Pt. 2}} Mirage believed his victory was assured. As he readied to finish off Strongarm, Sharkticon rose up from the nearby body of water... and went belly up. Kicker burst forth from the aquatic Decepticon, charged with incredible power from the subterranean energon well beneath them. {{storylink|Multiplicity, Pt. 3}} As Alpha Quintesson had instructed him to capture Kicker alive, Mirage was at a loss as to how he should handle this unexpected turn of events. While he hesitated, Kicker used his energon-manipulating abilities to revive the Omnicons to full strength. Now suddenly outgunned, Mirage and Slugslinger fled, leaving Sharkticon to fend for himself. {{storylink|Multiplicity, Pt. 4}}

{{Unreleased energon comic}}
Mirage fell in with Megatron after the Decepticon leader was resurrected, but was of the opinion that Megatron had lost his edge. He shared his thoughts on the matter with [[Shockblast]], and though the other Decepticon rebuked him, he secretly agreed with Mirage. {{storylink|Armageddon Part 2}}

[[File:Tidalwave pushup.gif|left|thumb|Megatron might be a jerk, but he cares for his troops' physical fitness.]]
Tidal Wave, in his combined battleship mode, was stationed as a relay and refuel point off a small chain of islands in the Mid-Atlantic. The [[Autobot]]s made their way inside him to take out the [[Decepticlone]] platoons inside and destroy him, but discovered that Tidal Wave wasn't merely a transport. They escaped just in time to avoid being crushed as Tidal Wave transformed into his titanic robot mode.

Tidal Wave walked around the island chain in the deep waters, unloading volleys of missiles, lasers, and the occasional [[Jet Laser]] on the tiny-by-comparison Autobots. Despite his impressive size, firepower, and nigh-impenetrable armor, the Autobots managed to do enough damage to Tidal Wave's one weak point—his face—to cause a chain reaction that caused multiple explosions inside him, sending him falling face-first to the ocean floor.

The Autobots were able to extract information from Tidal Wave's computer that the Decepticons' main base was located in Northern Alaska, but the information was planted there by Megatron to lead the Autobots into a trap.

Tidal Wave was later seen still on Earth and has survived from his battle with the Autobots, but is now taking exercises with the survived [[Decepticlone]] army. {{storylink|Transformers (PS2)|Transformers}}

: Released in the fourth wave of ''[[Transformers: Armada (toyline)|Armada]]'' Giga-Cons (the first with the "Unicron Battles" branding), Tidal Wave is a robot made up of three different aquatic vehicles, collectively called the "Dark Fleet": an aircraft carrier, a Cybertronic double-bowed battleship, and a troop-landing craft. All three can combine to form a single gigantic warship, which from there can transform to [[robot mode]] ''without'' having to separate. Each smaller craft has its own [[gimmick]]; the carrier has a working storage elevator for Tidal Wave's [[Mini-Con]] partner [[Ramjet (Armada)#Toys|Ramjet]], the battleship can launch two projectiles and has Mini-Con [[Powerlinx]]-activated swiveling cannons (also usable in robot mode), and the landing craft opens up to reveal seats for Mini-Cons to sit on. The Powerlinx-activated cannons on the battleship section are also ratcheted separately from the gimmick, allowing you to position them in any direction you want. Or you could just rotate the two at the back at 45° degrees, to match his robot mode appearance in both the ''Armada'' and ''Energon'' cartoons.

: Tidal Wave can also combine with [[Megatron (Armada)/toys#Armada|Megatron]] (and the [[Megatron (Armada)/toys#ArmadaGalvatron|Galvatron redeco]]) to form Tidal Wave's '''Weapon Mode''' (or '''Burning Megatron''' in Japan). To achieve this, Tidal Wave's aircraft carrier and battleship clip onto Megatron's arms, and his troop transport clips onto Megatron's back (after the turret has been positioned into the "Full Blast Mode" configuration) as a jetpack. The connectors for his arms are compatible with the sockets on ''[[Transformers: Cybertron (toyline)|Cybertron]]'' [[Megatron (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Megatron]] and [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/toys#Cybertron|Optimus Prime]] toys used to attach [[Overhaul (Cybertron)#Leobreaker|Leobreaker]] and [[Nemesis Breaker#Toys|Nemesis Breaker]], which allows for some rather funky combinations.

: The [[TakaraTomy|Takara]] and [[Hasbro]] versions are considerably different. Takara's '''Shockwave''' uses purple in place of green, uses darker grays, and has some different paint applications. Hasbro's version is less [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]] because the Hasbro team thought there was already too much purple between the Decepticons on the store shelves at the time, and [[Aaron Archer]] was happy to make the change.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=The Animation is a little different from the final toy, there is some green and copper on the final toy.

: In Japan, Ito Yokaido stores offered one of the three [[Race Mini-Con Team#RoadAssault|Road Assault Edition Race Microns]] with the purchase of either Shockwave or [[Jetfire (Armada)#Toys|Jetfire]] in August (though reportedly, most stores just gave them away with ''any'' toy in the line).

: Redecoed for the ''[[Transformers: Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' line, Command Class Tidal Wave was given an "energon-charged" deco with clear-green plastics and "energy" patterns painted across him. The toy has also been very slightly [[retool]]ed: the notches on the inside of his body that were originally designed to prevent the missiles from firing by giving the triggers a place to rest have been made larger so they now actually fulfill their original purpose.

: ''Energon'' Mega Class [[Mirage (Energon)#Toys|Mirage]] transforms into a sleek assault speedboat with multiple spring-loaded missile launchers, as well as fold-out wings for his "Hyper Power Mode". Something of a [[shellformer]], Mirage's transformation sequence is one of the most complex for the ''Energon'' toyline, and as a side effect, he ends up with some rather large [[Alternate mode|vehicle mode]] shell [[kibble]]. Some poor design and excessively tight knee joints means his lower legs will often detach from the upper thighs whenever one tries to bend his knees.

: Speaking of poor design, the [[instructions]] show that Mirage's feet are supposed to fold all the way up inside his boat mode, however, when doing this, his forearms don't sit flush on the top due to the raised edges of his feet occupying the same space that the elbow joints need to sit in, causing collisions. This doesn't affect the tabbing of any of the parts, it just causes his forearms to stick out, which can be annoying. Seemingly, the [[Character model|model]] designers of the ''[[Transformers: Energon (cartoon)|Energon]]'' cartoon caught onto this, and opted to design his boat mode model with only his heels folded inside the boat mode, with his toes just folded up onto the back. This can be replicated on the toy and looks objectively cleaner overall.

: The initial release of Mirage was one-per-case, and was part of a wave that saw limited distribution due to [[Shelfwarmer|a glut of early product on the shelves]]. However, Mirage was later put into "Mega-Buy" multi-packs at a buy-one-get-one-free price at numerous chains, including [[Toys"R"Us]] and [[Walmart]], relieving much of the demand for the item.

: The Mirage toy was released in Japan as '''Shockfleet''', an upgraded form of Shockwave (Tidal Wave) for the ''Super Link'' line, with no discernable differences from the Hasbro release. While the Hasbro Mirage toy was marketed as a separate character, the cartoon and comic depictions followed the Japanese characterization, even going so far as to keep the name "Mirage" for Tidal Wave in his new form.

: This mold was also used to make into ''Energon'' [[Dreadwing (Energon)#Toys|Dreadwing]] and [[BotCon 2009]] [[Banzai-Tron (G1)#Timelines|Banzai-Tron]].

:The Titan Class centerpiece for the ''[[Transformers: Legacy|Legacy: United]]'' lineup, "Armada Universe Tidal Wave" splits from robot mode or a combined ship form into the Dark Fleet of three smaller boats. Unlike the original toy, the robot must be disassembled when transforming into the combined ship mode and vice-versa; as a way of compensating for this, the figure now sports an additional "base" mode which does not require disassembly. Tidal Wave's deco is based on his purple and grey appearance in the cartoon but with orange detailing on his windows and other elements inspired by his [[#Armada|''Legends of the Microns'' toy]].

:The gun turrets on Tidal Wave's torso can swivel and even be removed. Instead of being able to combine with [[Megatron (Armada)/toys#Legacy|''Legacy: Evolution'' Armada Universe Megatron]] himself, Tidal Wave comes with several accessories that represent his body parts at a much smaller scale; these in turn attach to Megatron to ''simulate'' that combined mode despite the immense size difference between their ''Legacy'' toys. When Megatron is not wearing them, these miniature Tidal Wave parts also function as a miniature Dark Fleet. The miniature Dark Fleet pieces are strategically stored on Tidal Wave so as when combined with Megatron it doesn't leave an incomplete looking Tidal Wave. A note of caution: the ratchet joints on the "battleship" accessory are extremely strong, making it very easy to bend and stress the darker purple [[plastic]] tabs when folding and unfolding it for storage. The [[package art]] and [[Hasbro Pulse]] listing inadvertently revealed Megatron in his [[Megatron (Armada)/toys#LegacyArmadaGalvatron|Galvatron]] color scheme.

:Tidal Wave was teased on the ''Legacy: United'' poster, then revealed at [[Cybertron Fest|Cybertron Fest 2023]] on [[December 9]], [[2023]]. He was accompanied by a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9iU32kaSXEI pre-recorded video] by [[Ben MacCrae]] and [[Sam Smith]] explaining all of his gimmicks. He was made available to pre-order on January 16, 2024.

==Notes==
===Tidal Wave===
[[File:TidalwaveMouthplate.jpg|thumb|upright=1.2]]
* In the English dub of the ''Armada'' cartoon, Tidal Wave is referred to by his Japanese name (Shockwave) several times. Of course, the English dub was notorious for [[Sparkplug (Armada)|not]] [[High Wire (Armada)|keeping]] [[Sureshock (Armada)|names]] [[Grindor (Armada)|straight]].
* While Tidal Wave's use of his own name as a battle cry is a trait shared in both versions of the ''Armada'' cartoon, his vocabulary is much more rich in the dub, mostly speaking in simple-minded short sentences. In ''Legends of the Microns'', his title is "Strong-arm admiral Shockwave", with his dialog mostly consisting of repeating his name or the word "Strong-arm", saying "Combine" when combining with Megatron, or chanting "Shock, Shock, Shockwaaaaaaave", a trait he carries over into ''Super Link''. When he upgrades to Mirage ("Shockfleet" in Japan), his battle cry becomes "ShockShockShock!"
* In the ''Armada'' cartoon, the big frowny expression and chin guard on Tidal Wave's toy is sometimes misinterpreted as a mouthplate. This alternate mouthplate design went on to be used for Tidal Wave's 3D model in the ''Energon'' cartoon.
* The only time Tidal Wave splits into his three individual vehicle modes in the cartoon universe is during the [[stock footage]] combination with Megatron/Galvatron in ''Armada''.
* Tidal Wave's [[:File:ArmadaTidalShockwave.jpg|Cybertronian mode]] is directly based on Generation 1 [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]]'s [[alternate mode]].
* An easter egg in the PlayStation 2 ''Transformers'' game is that, when he's in [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]], you can enter a cavity where his robot mode head is stored. You can walk all over it and a glitch enables you to walk inside his head. He doesn't seem to mind.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L8hcHAW3YiY Gameplay video showing the Tidal Wave's head Easter egg.]</ref>
[[File:Tidal Wave Snipe Head.jpg|thumb|upright=1.2|GIVE ME YOUR FACE!]]
* Tidal Wave's size in the ''Armada'' cartoon is incredibly inconsistent. While the [[:File:Scalearmada1.png|official scale chart]] depicts him as being only about three heads taller than [[Optimus Prime (Armada)/Cartoon continuity|Optimus Prime]]'s [[Super Mode]], most episodes depict him as much bigger—in particular, his debut episode, "[[Awakening (Armada)|Awakening]]", has Jet Optimus Prime only coming up to around his knee. His size can shift even within the span of a single episode—"[[Rescue]]" has him appear only a couple of heads taller than [[Wheeljack (Armada)|Wheeljack]] in its first battle scene, but later on, he's big enough for Megatron to comfortably drive between his legs in tank mode with room to spare.
** The PlayStation 2 ''Transformers'' game, on the other hand, goes even bigger—its depiction of Tidal Wave forms an entire level in [[alternate mode]], and the subsequent boss fight in [[robot mode]] retains that colossal size!
** ''Energon''{{'}}s depiction of Tidal Wave's scale is fairly consistent throughout the show—even in his starship mode, which had actually lost its mass-shifting capabilities from ''Armada'', due to the cartoon's use of 3D animation.
** Tidal Wave and Megatron's toys in the ''Energon'' toyline are a couple of "scale anomalies", as Tidal Wave is [[:File:Energon-Decepticon-scale-chart.jpg|in-scale with the other Decepticons]] in the ''Energon'' toyline (aside from the Maximus's), yet he doesn't scale well at all with Hasbro's [[Megatron (Armada)/toys#Energon|Leader Class Megatron toy]], which scales perfectly with the other Decepticon toys. Instead, Tidal Wave is better scaled with the Takara [[Megatron (Armada)/toys#Ultra|Ultra-sized "Galvatron" toy]] (Takara's ''Energon'' Megatron mold), but this Megatron figure doesn't scale with the rest of the Decepticon toys. How this works is uncertain, but it probably has something to do with the way their designs were translated into animation models (e.g. certain parts being longer or shorter compared to their toys, etc.).
* In the ''Energon'' cartoon, Tidal Wave's appearance is significantly altered after he touches a raw [[Energon star]] in the episode "[[Scorpinok (episode)|Scorpinok]]" {{sic}}. Not only does he gain his toy-accurate "lightning" deco as a sort of scarring, his shoulders also notably [[:File:Decepticons Megatron Resurrected.jpg|sit in a higher position]] than before; having the tops of them sit above his head, rather than down in [[:File:Energon-Tidal-Wave-Meets-Scorponok.jpg|their natural position]] like his toy and ''Armada'' character model. The deco change makes sense, but what was the purpose of shifting his shoulders?
* Designer [[Aaron Archer]] opined that Tidal Wave was the only ''Armada'' mold to return for the ''Energon'' cartoon simply because "he's big and will sell well".<ref>{{citesocial|quote=Hes big and will sell well|link=https://news.tfw2005.com/2003/08/19/orsons-world-819-updated-again-758|name=Aaron Archer|site=TFW2005|year=2003|month=08|day=19}}</ref> A glowing endorsement.
* Like all non-toy [[Kreon]]s, Tidal Wave is made up of existing parts, in his case using the [[Ironhide (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Ironhide]] helmet, as well as using legs in place of his arms, with hand pieces inserted into the feet.

===Mirage===
* An early name used for Shockfleet (Mirage) found on Takara concept sheets is "Gigawave" (ギガウェーブ ''Gigauwēbu'').
* Mirage was almost certainly intended by [[Hasbro]] to be a [[Mirage (Energon)|separate character]]: they implied this to be the case, saying that designing the toys before the show was completed led to "some characters not aligning together in the animation and toy expressions".<ref>[[Hasbro Q&A/August 2009: Answers]]</ref>
* Archer also states that the Mirage/Dreadwing design's alternate mode was inspired by the ''[[G.I. Joe (team)|G.I. Joe]]'' Cobra Moray hydrofoil.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=I wanted to do a boat at a larger scale in the line. vehicle mode was slightly inspired by the Cobra Moray hydrofoil, Great robot not so great vh in the end. This was a design by @ericjsiebenaler|link=https://www.instagram.com/p/BvFrAekH9JV/|name=Aaron Archer|site=Instagram|year=2019|month=03|day=17}}</ref> The general "form" of the robot mode, meanwhile, was inspired by a fan-painted {{w|Gundam}} Archer saw in ''{{w|Hobby Japan}}'' magazine, which also served as reference for Dreadwing's colour scheme.<ref>{{citesocial|quote=One of my favorite designs for a few reasons, 1) it was always a win when we got to make a boat toy, 2) I love the grace of his robot form 3)the overall form and redeco colors are based off of a fan-painted Gundam figure I liked in #hobbyjapan back in the day. (still looking dor the ref to share)|link=https://www.instagram.com/p/CEW8eKMg-Lh/|name=Aaron Archer|site=Instagram|year=2020|month=08|day=26}}</ref>
* Despite [[Simon Furman]] going on record to say that he wasn't paying attention to what the cartoon was doing with the characters, Mirage still ended up becoming an upgraded form for Tidal Wave in the [[Dreamwave Productions|Dreamwave]] comics, even though Hasbro already established him as a separate individual in his toy bio. Perhaps someone tipped Furman off about this particular cartoon change?
* In the Japanese version of the ''Energon'' cartoon, after Tidal Wave becomes Mirage, he becomes [[Transformer romance|very affectionate]] towards Megatron/Galvatron. The English dub dodges the issue as best it could (although that was probably due to the fact that the English writers didn't seem to know what was going on in the show at the best of times), with Mirage's love-struck remarks being replaced with simple cheering for his leader or something else entirely—but it couldn't do anything about his repeated coquettish gestures, doe-eyed expressions, or that one time he pirouetted and struck a pose while surrounded by a glowing pink heart. Maybe Tidal Wave couldn't properly articulate his love in his ''Armada'' form?
