Optimus Prime is an Autobot from One.
"Bring me Sentinel!"

Bold and daring, Orion Pax came from humble beginnings as a cogless energon miner who, growing bored with his duties, snuck around in the archives to learn about the Primes. Yearning for adventure and the autonomy to make his own choices, he often tricked his by-the-books best friend D-16 into breaking the rules and getting them both in trouble.

Part of the reason for this is that the same relentless enthusiasm that drives Pax tends to blind him to potential flaws in his plans, such as their being dangerous. Or poorly thought out. Or just utterly stupid. And yet no matter how many setbacks he encounters Pax never loses faith that this time he's on to a winner, and it's that drive that convinces others to go along with him.

Despite this, his spark is very much in the right place, and as his sense of justice matured, he was bestowed the Matrix of Leadership, becoming the legendary hero Optimus Prime.

Despite lacking a cog, the energon miner Orion Pax was an incredibly bold bot who dreamed of proving his and other cogless transformers' worth, often getting into trouble for failing to obey rules or follow protocol. Orion befriended the unambitious D-16, who idolized Megatronus and spent most of his time pulling Orion out of one jam or another. Once, Orion became convinced that he could transform without a transformation cog, and D-16 had to spend three days getting his friend back into shape. On several occasions, Orion broke into the city's archives searching for information about the missing Matrix of Leadership. After the latest such illicit adventure, D-16 helped him escape from the archive guards, and Orion gifted his best friend with a pristine sticker of Megatronus Prime. During a mining expedition, Orion broke protocol with D-16 to rescue Jazz after a vein of unstable energon caused the mine to collapse. In response to his breaking of protocol, his captain, Elita-1 was fired and demoted by Darkwing. Angered by this injustice, Orion reminded Darkwing that while he lacked a Transformation Cog, his finger could still transform into a rude gesture, causing Darkwing to almost deck Orion until D-16 intervened by punching Orion and trying to apologize on his behalf before being knocked down himself.

Following the mining incident, Sentinel Prime announced his return from the surface, informing the city that he had failed to find the Matrix, but that work would be stopped so that everyone could watch the Iacon 5000 race the following day. Seeing an opportunity to show everyone their potential, Orion tricked D-16 into entering alongside him, coming close to victory until D-16 was injured on the final stretch. While trying to convince an upset D-16 that participating in the race wasn't a mistake, the pair were visited by Sentinel Prime, who praised them for inspiring the other miners to work harder and granted them access to his personal repair bay. However, before they could be escorted, Darkwing, angry at the pair for nearly beating him in the race, took them down to waste management at sublevel 50 where the two met B-127.

While B-127 was introducing the pair to his artificial friends, Orion discovered that one of the sculptures contained a transmitter from Alpha Trion and a map of a possible location of the Matrix. After convincing D-16 and B-127 to accompany him on the search, the three snuck their way up the garbage chute to take a train to the surface, where they ran into Elita-1. Still royally steamed at Orion for getting her fired, Elita attempted to stop the departing train. Knocked off the train by Cybertron's shifting geology and left stranded on the surface, the group convinced Elita-1 to join their party in search of the Matrix. The map eventually led them to an ancient cave where the Primes had fallen in battle against the Quintessons. The Matrix was not in the cave, but Orion discovered that Alpha Trion's spark still flickered and the group reactivated him with an energon cube. Trion revealed a dark truth: that Sentinel was an imposter, a false Prime who had betrayed the Primes and made a deal with the Quintessons where he would be allowed to rule Cybertron in return for paying them energon and, as a result, stole the cogs from new transformers so they could mine it.

"I choose to run towards my problems, and not away from them. Because's that– because's that what heroes do."

Though a bitter pill to swallow, Orion remained hopeful and announced his plan to reveal the truth to Iacon. D-16 on the other hand expressed his desire to kill Sentinel for what he had done, unnerving Orion, B-127, and Elita-1. Trion granted Orion and his allies the cogs of the dead Primes,<ref>In the film, Micronus Prime's cog is shown going to Orion, while the film's novelization states he received Prima Prime's. It doesn't ultimately have a significant effect on the story as a whole, so deciding which cog he got somewhat becomes a matter of personal canon.</ref> and they escaped as Trion held off the approaching Death Trackers. On their journey back to Iacon, the party was captured by the former Cybertron High Guard, who mistook them for Sentinel Prime's spies. After watching D-16 beat down Starscream and take control of the guard, they were attacked by Sentinel's legion of Death Trackers and his enforcer, Airachnid. D-16, B-127, and many members of the Guard were captured, leaving Orion feeling hopeless. Elita, far from Orion's biggest fan, inspired him to keep going, reminding him that his greatest strength was his endless hope. Inspired, Orion rallied the remaining members of the Guard and organized a plan to free the others. While Elita smuggled them into Iacon, Orion made his first of many inspirational speeches to the cogless miners and convinced them to rise up against Sentinel after revealing the truth that their cogs were stolen.

"Can I come home?"
"The truce with Jotunheim is conditional upon your exile."

During the battle for Iacon, Orion helped free D-16 and the rest of the guard. While D-16 attacked Sentinel directly, Orion, B-127, and Elita instead focused on revealing Sentinel's treachery to the entire city via Airachnid's memories. After broadcasting them thoughout the entire city, D-16, despite the truth being out, was still set on killing the false Prime. Orion pleaded with him, trying to make his friend see that his path of vengeance was not the way to build the future. Shoving Orion aside, D-16 aimed his fusion cannon at Sentinel, only for his shot to hit Orion as he jumped in the way, blowing a hole through his chest and knocking him over a cliff. A horrified D-16 managed to catch Orion by the wrist, dangling over the edge. Mortally wounded, Orion begged his friend to not let go, only for D-16 to bitterly tell him he was done saving him and let him fall.

Primus took note of Orion's selfless sacrifice. As Orion plummeted into the depths, the structure of Cybertron opened up around him so that he fell into the planet's very core. There, the spirits of the Primes appeared around Orion, including Alpha Trion, who announced that Primus had judged him worthy to bear the Matrix of Leadership and be custodian of Cybertron's future. The Matrix materialized and settled into Orion's chest cavity, transforming him into Optimus Prime. Hurled back to the surface, Optimus landed before D-16, now Megatron, and fought to stop him from destroying any more of the city, ultimately forcing him to surrender by destroying his fusion cannon with an energon-axe. Saddened by the path of destruction his old friend had chosen, Optimus banished Megatron and his followers from Iacon. Knowing he could not lead the planet alone, Optimus asked Elita and B-127 to work with him, an offer that was readily accepted by both bots. Holding the Matrix high, energon began flowing in abundance once again and the miners were granted cogs, becoming fully autonomous "Autobots". Optimus vowed that the Autobots would defend Cybertron from the Quintessons and any future enemies. One

Am I Prime? Am I Pax? You decide!
  • Optimus Prime/Orion Pax (Prime Changers, 2024)
  • TakaraTomy name: Deluxe Class Optimus Prime (デラックスクラス オプティマスプライム)
  • TakaraTomy ID number: OD-01
  • Accessories: 2 shoulder pipes, Energon axe, Matrix of Leadership
Released as part of Transformers One's Prime Changers line, Optimus Prime is a Deluxe Class-ish figure and transforms from a robot to a Cybertronian truck in 20 steps. Like the other Prime Changers, he has pearlescent plastic and glittery paint applications, specifically his silver and gunmetal paint.
His removable shoulder pipes can double as blasters. He comes with his Energon axe which can be wielded on his hands and stored on his back or between his legs in alt mode. Both the shoulder pipes and axe are Fire Blast effect-compatible. The included Matrix of Leadership stores on the backside of his truck bumper, which then folds up into his chest, though it is not directly accessible from the chest window itself like most Optimus toys with removable Matrices. The Matrix can be held using 5 mm posts with both hands, though a word of caution: the Matrix may break if the arms are pulled apart while he is holding it due to the thin plastic. There is a Generations-style 3 mm port on his posterior in robot mode for use with various industry standard action figure stands.
Due to its short friction pegs, the wrists can become floppy or pop off easily. The stock photography on the back of his box shows him with an Autobot symbol in the center of his chest above his windshield, but the actual toy lacks one.
Like a few of his other One toys, the Prime Changer seems to be based on an early design for Optimus Prime (see Notes). The designers of the larger Studio Series Deluxe toy consider this Prime Changer toy as the Orion Pax form due to its smaller size.<ref name=April25/>


  • Optimus Prime/Orion Pax (Mega Changers, 2024)
Released as part of the rebranded "Mega Changers" line, this 12-inch Optimus Prime figure transforms from a robot to a Cybertronian truck. The toy itself is based on the Optimus Prime design, but the box art uses images of Orion Pax and his truck mode.


  • Bumblebee/B-127, Optimus Prime/Orion Pax, Megatron/D-16, & Starscream (Mega Changer 4-Pack, 2024)
Mega Changer Optimus Prime/Orion Pax was re-released in November as part of a Target-exclusive multi-pack with Bumblebee/B-127, Megatron/D-16, and Starscream, $10 cheaper than the four individually.


Tallest smokestacks in the west.
  • Optimus Prime/Orion Pax (2-in-1 Mask, 2024)
This Optimus Prime transforms into a wearable mask in 18 steps. This toy does not resemble his One design, with the robot mode having elements of his Evergreen design while the mask's mouthplate is based on his Bumblebee design.


  • Power Flip Optimus Prime (2024)
  • TakaraTomy name: Ultimate Power Change Optimus Prime (アルティメットパワーチェンジ オプティマスプライム)
  • TakaraTomy release date: October 12, 2024
  • Accessories: sword, Energon axe, shield, Matrix of Leadership
This large Optimus Prime toy transforms into 4 different modes: An old Leader Class-sized Orion Pax, Cybertronian Truck, a Super Class-sized Optimus Prime (by extending his torso and legs), and "Ultimate" Optimus Prime (by flipping him back like a Flip-and-Change figure). He features lights and sounds that are activated by a button on his crotch and during transformation. He includes a sword based on Prima Prime's weapon, Energon axe, Matrix of Leadership, and a shield that's just the roof of the truck mode.
The figure's articulation is fairly limited, only having a swivel for the head and hands and joints for the arms, shoulders, and legs (the latter two having a very limited range), and lacking knees and foot articulation.


Prime found Excalibur and took the stone with it.
  • Optimus Prime vs. Megatron (Robot Battlers, 2024)
  • Accessories: Energon sword, axe, base
Optimus Prime transforms from a robot to a Cybertronian truck. The figure can be placed on a base to perform action moves by sliding the finger slots to knock an opponent's figure off of their base. He is packaged in a 2-pack set with Megatron, and includes an additional axe accessory alongside the standard Energon sword.
  • Cybertron Rush Battle: Leader-tachi no Tatakai (サイバトロンラッシュバトル リーダーたちの戦い, 2024)
The Robot Battlers Optimus Prime was released in Japan as part of a "Cybertron Rush Battle" 3-pack with Elita-1 and Megatron.


  • Optimus Prime/Orion Pax vs. Megatron/D-16 (Race Changers, 2024)
  • Accessories: launcher
"Race Changers" Optimus Prime/Orion Pax is, shockingly, a retool of Bot Shots Blitz Shot Optimus Prime from 2012, with newly tooled front grill and a spoiler added to the back of his trailer. He features a spring-loaded automatic transformation to robot mode triggered when his front bumper is pressed. His chest spinner no longer has the battle gimmick, only an Autobot insignia on one side with the other sides left blank. The included launcher is a new design.
Optimus comes in a Target-exclusive 2-pack with Megatron/D-16. They can be launched at each other for combative play or have the launchers connected side-by-side for racing action. Interestingly, the launchers have "2017" molded into their bottoms, whereas the original Bot Shots toyline ended in 2013. This suggests these remolds were made for an earlier toyline but weren't released until now.


"Schrödinger's Matrix bearer" postulates that this toy exists in a quantum superposition of being both Optimus Prime and Orion Pax at the same time until the presence of the Matrix is observed.
  • Megatron/D-16 / Optimus Prime/Orion Pax / Autobot Mirage (Iacon Race 3-pack, 2024)
Released as part of the Target-exclusive Iacon Race 3-pack, Optimus Prime/Orion Pax is a retool of the second Cyberverse Optimus Prime 1-Step Changers toy based on his appearance in Transformers One and transforms between robot and truck modes in one step. The robot mode is based on Optimus Prime, but the truck is based on Orion Pax's with its telltale narrower windows. The box art also displays Cogged Orion Pax.
Optimus/Orion comes packaged with Mirage and Megatron/D-16. Initial listings for the set had the name "Racing Warrior 3-pack".


Babymus Prime.
  • Energon Matrix Optimus Prime (2024)
Released exclusively for Walmart, this simple figure "transforms" between his Optimus Prime and Cog-less Orion Pax forms by opening his back to rotate his head and chest panels, with the Optimus chest panel featuring a sculpted in Matrix of Leadership. His only articulation is shoulder swivels. His body is based on his cog-less form, but he is packaged as Optimus Prime.


He's got the blue touch.
  • Ultimate Energon Optimus Prime (2024)
  • TakaraTomy name: Energon Power Optimus Prime (エネルゴンパワー オプティマスプライム)
  • TakaraTomy ID number: OE-EX
  • TakaraTomy release date: July 13, 2024
  • Accessories: Energon axe, Matrix of Leadership
This roughly Commander Class-sized Optimus Prime toy is exclusive to Walmart. He features translucent blue plastic for an Energon effect, including an Energon axe and a Matrix of Leadership. The Axe can be mounted onto one of the back robot mode portholes or the rear truck wheels for storage. The Matrix is removable from his chest, though the figure cannot hold it with its hands.
He was released as a Toys"R"Us exclusive in Japan.


You could build a house with that alt-mode.
  • Optimus Prime/Orion Pax (1-Step Cog Changer, 2024)
  • TakaraTomy name: Cog Power Change Optimus Prime (コグパワーチェンジ オプティマスプライム)
  • TakaraTomy ID number: OCP-04
  • TakaraTomy release date: October 12, 2024
Released as part of the Cog Changers line, Optimus Prime/Orion Pax transforms from robot to Cybertronian truck by sliding up and pressing a transformation cog shaped panel on his chest. Transformation into robot mode is done manually by flipping the upper truck hood/robot torso in place. Aside from the wider windows, the toy is based on his Cogged Orion Pax form, which is also used for packaging art.


I'm still worthy!
  • Brave Commander Optimus Prime (ブレイブコマンダー オプティマスプライム, 2024)
"Brave Commander Optimus Prime" is a figure around the size of a larger Leader Class. He transforms into a Cybertron truck based on the Orion Pax design. He features an interchangeable face gimmick, opening hands, and pop-out "Energy Cannons" that work in both modes by triggering black switches on the back of his shoulders. His Energy Axe stores on his back and in vehicle mode via 5 mm ports. Optimus Prime also features a removable Matrix (the first to be fully gold like the film) inside his opening chest panel, which he can hold in his hands.
In an undocumented feature, there's a slot on the back of the truck bed which allows him to tow the trailer of Masterpiece MP-44 Convoy Ver.3.0.
Made for the TakaraTomy market, Brave Commander Optimus Prime was also available at Hasbro Pulse and other online retailers in the United States and Canada.

Studio Series

[edit]
Unlike Thor, Prime knows far too well how to go for the head.
  • Optimus Prime (Deluxe Class, 2024)
Studio Series One Optimus Prime is a larger Deluxe Class figure and transforms into a Cybertronian truck in 25 steps. His shoulder pipes are removable and can double as blasters, though they can't use blast effects like the above Prime Changer. His energon axe, however, keeps the effect peg and also fuctions similarly, pegging into his hand and storing on his back in robot mode and in the truck bed. The included Matrix of Leadership can tab into slots in his fists without the need for opening hands. He comes with a "dual-barrel blaster" meant only for his truck mode, which can be stored under his back in robot mode. Lastly, Optimus comes with a backdrop showcasing the Iacon cityscape as seen in the film.
Unfortunately, his waist skirt is rather loose, and easily falls off while posing. His dual-barrel blaster also doesn't peg in very tightly in bot mode, falling off regularly as well.
Optimus was revealed on April 18, 2024, alongside the premiere of the movie's first trailer. Released at the Deluxe Class price point, Optimus is a smaller (and more affordable) figure than previous Optimus toys in the line. He was the first figure announced to be in the "A-Level" assortment, being released outside of a main wave for extended periods for greater availability.


Where's a magic hammer when you need one?
  • Optimus Prime (Limited Edition Battle Damage Ver.) (Deluxe Class, 2024)
  • Movie: Transformers One
  • ID number: 112
  • Accessories: 2 shoulder pipes, dual-barrel blaster, Energon Axe, Matrix of Leadership, "Metropolis of Iacon" backdrop
  • Known designers: Evan Brooks (Hasbro), Shuhei Umezu (TakaraTomy){{#if: |, {{{2}}}}}<ref name=April25/>
This Optimus Prime is an extensively hand-painted version of the above Studio Series Deluxe, being covered in black wash and silver battle damage. Notably, the dual-barrel blaster goes unpainted, which particularly stands out in vehicle mode.

Limited to 230 copies worldwide, each box features a numbered sticker on the front with the Transformers 40th Anniversary logo. Of the 230 units, 40 were distributed at Ani-Com & Games Hong Kong 2024 as a gift with minimum purchases of HK$3000; 5 were distributed at Toy Expo 2024 in the Philippines with a minimum purchase of PHP20,000.


The Sparkdrinker is looking a little different today.
  • Orion Pax (Deluxe Class, 2026)
  • Movie: Transformers One
  • TakaraTomy name: Orion Pax (オライオンパックス)
  • TakaraTomy ID number: TS-20
  • TakaraTomy release date: May 30, 2026
  • Accessories: Mining saw, Holographic 3D map, 2 smokestacks
Released as part of the 2026 Studio Series A-Level assortment, Orion Pax is based on his cogged form in the second act of the movie, transforming into a Cybertronian truck. He comes with the massive mining saw with rotating blades that he used a couple times throughout the film, which has two 5 mm post compatible handles and can be stored on his robot mode back or truck bed, and a translucent holographic map of Cybertron that can attach to a 3 mm peg on either of his forearms.
Orion's wheels and ankles are conspicuously cast in red plastic. As the remaining Deluxe budget was allocated to the Mining Saw, Orion's height is slightly shorter than Elita-1 and slightly taller than Bumblebee/B-127.
Hilariously, due to his transformation scheme, one could recreate his headless form he took while trying to transform for the first time in the film.
Unusually, Orion was revealed first by TakaraTomy instead of Hasbro, first teased alongside Devastation Bumblebee on November 19, 2025 before he was fully revealed on December 2.

Near-middle finger right hand sadly not included.
  • (Cog-less Bot Mode) Orion Pax (2024)
  • Japanese Name: Orion Pax (オライオンパックス)
  • Japanese Release Date: March 2025
  • Accessories: 3 pairs of hands, Cog of Conversion Transformation Cog, Jetpack
Released as part of Yolopark's Advance Model Kit (AMK) lineup, this Orion Pax is modeled after his Cog-less Cybertronian form, and he can only be completed by snapping the pre-painted pieces together. Aside from his hand parts, Orion also comes with an additional jetpack he used to mine (and interfere in the Iacon 5000 race), and a Transformation Cog.
While the Cog can be installed into Orion's empty slot, it does not have holes or friction to hold it.
Like most Yolopark AMK kits, Orion's pre-assembled parts can also be detached, except for the pinned areas, making it generally easy to customize the kit if desired.
Orion Pax can be bought in either the default-styled "gift box" or "tin box"-styled packaging. The latter can be purchased with the other three Cog-less figures as a 4-pack that comes with an acrylic standee. In 2025, people who pre-ordered both the AMK Pro Optimus Prime and Megatron kits at certain official stores and authorized channels will receive a free gift consisting of both the AMK Cog-less Orion and D-16.


  • (Cogged Bot Mode) Orion Pax (2024)
  • Japanese Name: Optimus Prime/Orion Pax (オプティマスプライム／オライオンパックス)
  • Japanese Release Date: March 2025
  • Accessories: 2 pairs of hands, right weapon-wielding hand, pointing left hand, blaster
This model kit of Orion Pax is based on his cogged form, and he comes with the blaster taken from the Death Trackers, and one of his pointing fingers is now swapped with an accessory-wielding hand for the weapon.


AMK Pro

[edit]
  • Optimus Prime/Orion Pax (2025)
  • Accessories: 4 pairs of hands, Energon Axe/left hand, Tracker Blaster, 4 Optimus/Orion faceplates, Orion Pax head/shoulder/upper torso, Transformation Cog
This AMK Pro kit of Optimus Prime/Orion is a redeco/retool of the regular AMK Cogged Orion, featuring diecast parts and light-up features, where his eyes light up when tapped on the head with a magnet. In addition to the identical accessories from the original release, the kit also features interchangeable head/shoulder/upper torso to form either Optimus or Orion, an Energon Axe/left hand, and swappable face plates compatible with both forms. The Matrix of Leadership can be removed from the chest by removing the head and neck joint, allowing it to be popped off with an auxiliary key-like tool from the front cavity of the neck. Notably, and for unknown reasons, the transparent plastic for his chest window is colored dark grey, as opposed to the film-accurate blue.
As with most AMK Pro kits following The Last Knight's Optimus Prime, Optimus/Orion includes a display stand with an adjustable gooseneck.


Blokees

Galaxy Version

[edit]


  • Optimus Prime (Galaxy Version, 2024)
    • Series: Galaxy Version 05 - One Wave 2
    • Accessories: 2 pairs of hands (Fists/Weapon-holding, Open-palm hands), Energon axe, Death Tracker laser blaster, spare peg-and-ball piece, stand
The headline figure of the fifth Galaxy Version wave, this Blokees kit of Optimus Prime represents the young cogged hero's new form at the climax of the film. His Energon axe pegs in with the same standard ball joint that Blokees hands use, allowing him to pose with and swing the blade with a degree of freedom. Like the rest of his wave, Optimus features an upgraded suite of standard body parts, including a new torso frame with an integrated neck ball joint, sturdier pre-assembled hinge joints, and slightly more complex builds, such as the color-coded face and eyes introduced in the second wave. Optimus also features a new pair of forearm parts with underslung peg holes (meant for placing the Tracker's arm-mounted guns) instead of being outwards on the side. Aside from the face and Tracker Blaster, most of the grey plastic is coated with bronze-ish silver paint.
Prime's smokestacks are mounted on symmetrical pegs on his shoulder armor, giving you the option to peg them in upside down to represent his flamethrower move.
If you're a speed builder, be mindful when attaching the pre-assembled joints; Unlike the symmetrical joints from earlier waves, the pegs on both ends of these joints are designed to connect to specific pieces: The tabs with slightly smaller holes are intended for the upper arms and thighs, while the regular tabs are meant for the forearms and lower legs. While an incorrect knee joint assembly may cause it to very slightly lean when standing straight or in an A-stance, an incorrect elbow assembly won't be noticeably affected unless you're looking very closely.
Optimus Prime has a pull rate of 1 in every 12 boxes, or three times across four cases.


  • Optimus Prime (Secret) (Galaxy Version, 2024)
    • Series: Galaxy Version 05 - One
    • Accessories: 2 pairs of hands (Fists/Weapon-holding, Open-palm hands), Energon axe, laser blaster, spare peg-and-ball piece, stand
The chase figure of Galaxy Version 05, this Optimus is molded in metallic plastic and coated in some extra delicious metallic paint, with additional printed detail on his forearms, thighs, and feet. He retains the same selection of accessories as his standard deco, with more shiny paint on his Death Tracker blaster and tints of yellow across the edges of his blue axe.
As is standard for Galaxy Version chase variants, Optimus has a pull rate of 1 in every 36 boxes, i.e. once in four cases.


  • Orion Pax (Galaxy Version, 2024)
    • Series: Galaxy Version 05 - One
    • Accessories: 2 pairs of hands (Fists/Weapon-holding, Open-palm hands), pistol, spare peg-and-ball piece, stand
This Galaxy Version kit of Orion Pax is represented in his cog-less form. He appears once in every case of nine blind boxes. Orion includes the usual pairs of gripping fists and open hands, a laser pistol, and a two-studded connectable figure stand. In a neat touch, the mining jetpacks included in the seventh wave's Elita-1 or D-16 are compatible with Orion once the gray panel on his back is removed to reveal the pegholes underneath.
Though this version of Orion Pax is unaligned in the movie (as he only had this form long before the Autobots and Decepticons were formed), and therefore has no insignia, he is nonetheless labeled as an Autobot in the promotional images and the instructions.


  • Orion Pax (Galaxy Version, 2025)
    • Series: Galaxy Version 07 - One
    • Accessories: 2 pairs of hands (Fists/Weapon-holding, Open-palm hands), Mining Saw, Matrix of Leadership, spare peg-and-ball piece
The seventh wave of Blokees' Galaxy Version blindboxed kits (and the second One-based) features a new kit of Orion Pax. He features additional articulation, such as the double-sided ball joint neck, and a swivelling ball-and-socket torso-to-waist joint. Orion comes with a Mining Saw that can attach to one of his forearms, and the Matrix of Leadership that can be attached to any of his open hands. If one chooses, Orion can accommodate the jetpack included in the Cogless D-16 or Elita-1 kits for high-flying action.
Unlike the previous 6 waves, Orion does not come with the lineup's figure stand.


Classic/Champion Class

[edit]

  • Optimus Prime (Classic Class, 2024)
  • ID number: 11
  • Accessories: 2 pairs of hands (grip, open palm), 2 face parts (masked, unmasked), Energon Axe, Matrix of Leadership, Tracker blaster, 2 figure stands, 2 energy effects
Released as part of Blokees' Classic Class model kit line, this Optimus Prime is a 4.5-inch tall non-transforming Deluxe/Prime Changer-sized Gunpla-style model kit with some pre-painted parts on the runners. He also features a torso frame that lights up upon shaking (or at least lightly tap some areas on the torso), causing the eyes and the Matrix to glow for a limited time. Aside from the usual display stand and two pairs of hand parts, Optimus also includes a Tracker Blaster (used by his cogged Orion Pax form) to hold and two different face pieces. While the pieces are molded on a touch-gate runner for easy removal of parts without nippers or tools, the former is required for a cleaner cut. The head, back piece, and upper neck collar parts must be removed first to allow access to the Matrix chamber to detach the MacGuffin.
The smokestacks can be inverted via parts rearrangement to create their "flamethrower" mode. As the face plate assembly is a mostly one-way method, careful wiggling is required to remove them from the translucent eye/socket joint part if one wants to swap them.


Action Edition

[edit]
For the ones who want him to be accurate to the nose.
  • Optimus Prime/Orion Pax (2025)
  • Accessories: Cogged Orion Pax parts (Head, Shoulders, Chest, Back piece), 3 Orion Pax/Maskless Optimus Prime faceplaces, 5 pairs of hands, Cog-holding hand, Tracker Blaster, Energon Axe (Default, twirling), display stand with magnet-powered logo block
The "Action Edition" Optimus Prime is a 7-inch (approx 18cm) model kit with a slightly more complex build and features an inner frame (equivalent to the ones used for Bandai's "Master/Perfect/Real Grade" kits) with greater articulation points than his other Galaxy Version toys. In addition to his signature accessories, such as the removable Matrix of Leadership and two types of Energon Axe pieces (with one being based on the twirling piece that is used to block Megatron's shots), Optimus also comes with alternate parts that allow him to be built into Orion Pax. A magnetic component in his display stand's logo symbol activates the light-up features that illuminate his eyes and the Matrix. In addition, Optimus features fixed hands instead of articulated ones, which also increases its gripping stability, and a total of three sets of optics parts.


Threezero

[edit]
  • Optimus Prime (MDLX, 2025)
  • Accessories: 4 pairs of hands, 2 Chest Parts (Orion, Optimus), 2 pairs of Shoulder parts (Orion, Optimus), 2 heads (Orion, Masked Optimus), Energon Axe, Matrix of Leadership
Sold as part of Threezero's One-based MDLX line, this Optimus Prime is a smaller-scaled non-transforming action figure in the vein of contemporary collector-oriented lines like Figma and S.H. Figuarts. Like those lines, the figure is extremely well-articulated and detailed and features interchangeable hands and accessories, namely his Energon Axe and Matrix of Leadership. The figure also comes with alternative head, chest, and shoulder armor parts to create his Cogged Orion Pax or Optimus Prime forms.
Contrary to early stock photos (right), the final figure's Energon-axe uses the correct yellow with a blue trim deco from its on-screen appearance.
The extra Orion/Optimus hands and the Tracker Blaster from the same line's Elita-1 can be used on this figure.


Killerbody

[edit]
  • Optimus Prime (High-end Baby Figurine, 2024)
  • Accessories: face mask, Ion Cannon, Energon Axe
Released by Killerbody, this non-converting super deformed Optimus features a removable mask, light-up eyes, attachable weapons, and shoulder and hip articulation.

Notes

[edit]
  • There appears to have been an earlier concept design for Optimus Prime that was used for several of his toys, notably the Prime Changer, Mega Changer, and Robot Battler. This design has prominent sloped kneepads, a narrower chest window (but not pinched in the middle like Orion Pax's), and an angled collar section similar to his Cogged Orion Pax design.
  • One of Optimus Prime's models has a blue axe with an yellow trim instead of the yellow axe with a blue trim from the final film. This older model is in a few promotional renders and was the reference used for most of his 2024 merchandise. This coloration for the axe is also seen when it was used by its previous owner Zeta Prime.
  • Many of his toys and merchandise also use a traditional silver/gray instead of the light bronze of his final design.
  • Orion's interest in the archives is a nod to his backstory from both Transformers: The War Within and the Aligned Continuity, where he was a data clerk before becoming Prime.

Foreign names
