Optimus Prime is a relatively young and idealistic leader, prone to longwinded "inspirational" speeches. He leads his small Autobot repair/clean up crew under supervision from Ratchet. He transforms into a fire engine and wields a kick-ass rocket-powered battle axe with transforming laser blade. He bears some resemblance to Star Convoy. He is most notably not the Supreme Commander of the Autobots, the faction showing a command structure similar to that in the Beast Era. Ultra Magnus] is his superior officer. He is apparently a graduate of the Autobot Academy. When asked what an Academy bot was doing on a maintenance crew, he gave no answer.
