A somewhat oddly proportioned Optimus Prime (I took down his chonkiness a few notches in my drawing here), the Autobot leader again turns into a flat-nosed truck cab. His robot mode has a number of design decisions meant to support a larger incarnation, which we’ll get to tomorrow. As it stands, the cab / robot mode is here, and included some electronic light / sound effects. A separate incarnation of the cab was available in Japan, but didn’t vary enough from this version that came bundled with a trailer as to be worth creating a whole new illustration. This cab towed a trailer with smaller vehicles which are integral to a larger combined form that we’ll showcase tomorrow.
