Optimus Prime. This is the guy everyone wanted to have from this series. The robot was true to the cartoon, looked good as a robot, and looked just as awesome as a truck. You could have fun with it either way. So much the opposite of Megatron. Crappy robot, ok looking gun. I have never wanted to have the original G1 Megatron as part of my collection. I know I have a few different versions of Optimus here. I finally found I have two Optimus robots,but neither are the original G1 Optimus. After digging around, I have found a Robots in Disguise Laser Optimus Prime 1995, a Machine Wars Optimus Prime 1996, G2 Optimus Prime Hero, and Robots in Disguise Optimus Prime 2001. If I keep digging, I may find another, if not I really like the Platinum Optimus I saw at Toys R Us today, but it may have to wait for the Platinum Starscream which looks amazing!. I will post them once I manage to get some pictures. Here are a few different versions of him that are posted on the site.

Platinum Series Year of the Horse Optimus Prime 2014 – 30th Anniversary
Sadly, I don’t have a Generation 1 Optimus Prime as I hoped. I have 5 from other series which is nice. But if I could have one it would be the G1 or Masterpiece.I guess will have to consider getting a reissue or the new Platinum Year of the Horse Optimus which looks pretty awesome. Just not a big fan of the gold grill.
