In times long past, Alchemist Prime wielded the Lenses. Permanently affixed into his optics, they allowed him to see farther than any other living thing, both literally and spiritually. Through the Lenses, Alchemist could perceive the various visible and invisible cycles of the universe.
Fiction
The Covenant of Primus
Alpha Trion noted that the Lenses let Alchemist Prime see another side to any story or problem. The Covenant of Primus
2019 IDW continuity
The Lenses were one of the fourteen Artifacts of the Primes. Light/Star
Toys
Age of the Primes
- Alchemist Prime (Deluxe Class, 2025)
- Known designers: Mark Maher (Hasbro), Tomoki Tatsumi (TakaraTomy)[1]
- Part of the second wave of Age of the Primes, the Lenses are included with Deluxe Class Alchemist Prime. Two separate pieces, the Lenses feature 5 mm handles that allow them to be waved threateningly as well as additional 5 mm posts that allow them to attach to Alchemist's forearms as blades or store on the top of Alchemist Prime's vehicle mode. The lenses can be combined via the pointy ends to produce a giant ersatz role play toy of the eyes of Alchemists's Covenant of Primus character model. This can still be held by the figure via the handles on both ends.
- Lastly, the Lenses feature a variety of insignias: One of the Lenses bears Alchemist Prime's personal emblem and the Ancient Autobot symbol first seen in "Five Faces of Darkness, Part 4," while the other has the insignia of Unicron as first seen on Beast Wars Neo's Blentrons.
