This '''Optimus Prime''' may look somewhat familiar, but there's something different about [[Viron 1103.12 Gamma]]'s Prime. Something fundamental. Something we can't quite put our finger on...
 
I know what it is! This female Optimus Prime ''is human-sized!'' Size doesn't matter though, for even as a [[Spy Changer]] she's got the same leadership skills and heroism as all the other [[Viron]] Optimuses.

''In her home reality, [[Sky-Byte (RID)|Sky-Byte]] accidentally turned all of Earth's energon toxic. To survive, Optimus Prime had her troops downsize into Spy Changer forms, much to the amusement of the Predacons... until the Autobots blew up the Predacons' pure energon and the bad guys ran out of energy. Optimus' nemesis [[Scourge (RID)|Scourge]] was the only villain that made the shift to a Spy Changer body, but she too was defeated by Prime's army.''
 
Optimus Prime and her cohorts [[Prowl (RID)#3H comics (2)|Prowl]], [[Ultra Magnus (Universe Spychanger)|Ultra Magnus]], and [[Ironhide (Universe)|Ironhide]] were later plucked from their universe and stranded on a frozen planetoid, a side effect of [[Rhinox (BW)|Rhinox]]'s device that blocked [[Unicron]]'s attempt to kidnap Transformers from multiple dimensions. These stranded Autobots were rescued by some ''other'' Autobots. During the battle, Optimus took charge; [[Prowl (RID)|the "RID" Prowl]] was left distracted by Prime's voice actor while Optimus was distracted by his constant statement of what attacks he was going to do. {{storylink|Voice Actor Drama}}

*'''Optimus Prime with Prowl''' (Basic multi-pack, 2003)
 
: Spy Changer Optimus Prime is a [[redeco]] of ''[[Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2001 toyline)|Robots in Disguise]]'' [[Spy Changer]] [[Optimus Prime (RID)#SC|Optimus Prime]], cast in yellow to match [[Optimus Prime (RID)#Universe|the ''Universe'' deco of the larger RID Optimus Prime toy]]. Transforming into a Japanese Hino Brandlier fire truck, she features through-axle construction, letting her quickly zip across smooth surfaces.
 
: One of several [[Walmart]] [[exclusive]]s released within a short timeframe, she came packaged with the fire chief vehicle [[Prowl (Spychanger)|Prowl]].

==Notes==
*Michelle Carolus voiced Optimus at the [[OTFCC 2004]] stage play, which was made into a joke as RID Prowl found himself 'distracted' by it even though Optimus was apparently male. "Ask Vector Prime" retconned this in 2015 and said this was an Optimus Prime who just happened to be female (grandfathering the Spy Changer Scourge as female too, due to their clone nature).
 
*In the script, she was called "Optimus Prime (Micro)".
 
*With no stated universe of origin, being released in a franchise that wasn't tied to a reality, and questioning one of RID's tropes, it's likely that she wasn't intended to be an RID Prime. But it never explicitly said she wasn't, so here she is in the RID 'verse!
