Optimus Prime dies a lot. Taking that into consideration, there have been a number of memorials constructed to honor his memory. These memorials exist on a number of planets where his influence was felt the most.

Exactly what happens to these memorials when Prime inevitably returns to life is anybody's guess.

In some American Earth city, television reporter Marty Minkler was interviewing Jazz and Cliffjumper at the unveiling ceremony for the Optimus Prime Memorial when Starscream and his newly recruited army of Combaticons attacked, taking the two Autobots prisoner.

After Optimus Prime died for the third time, yet another memorial was built in his honor. This time, it was constructed on the Autobot base planet of Athenia. Depressingly, only Rodimus Prime, Chromedome, Hardhead, Brainstorm, and Highbrow attended the unveiling of the statue. Likely, with this being the third statue unveiling, the ceremonies had probably grown dull and passé. The Headmasters #1
