Transformers Movie Leader: Optimus Prime

This great Transformer toy combines all the best new features of modern transformers with the chunky, solid style of the old.

As a vehicle Optimus Prime is a solid, brightly coloured truck with free rolling wheels and a horn/light effect activated by a cab-top button. All of his robot features are hidden away and it looks just like a toy truck.

But, the real treat is the advanced automorph technology that is used to enhance vehicle-to-robot conversion with partially animated mechanical triggers that activate the final shift to battle mode (in other words help it transform by moving muliple peieces as soon as one piece is moved).

Optimus' right hand carries a firing missile launcher with an impressive range, while his hands have articulated thumbs and fingers (4 fingers joined together) and the head rotates. You can flip down the Ion Blaster in robot mode to launch the projectile or press the button in vehicle mode for electronic horn sounds and lights that bring the action to life! Optimus Prime comes with 2 x AA batteries.

Transformers Movie Leader: Optimus Prime is suitable for ages 5 and over
