TakaraTomy release date: May 25, 2018
Accessories: trailer/evolution armor, ion-blaster (formed by two blasters), Matrix of Leadership frame, Matrix of Leadership core
Power of the Primes "Evolution Optimus Prime” transforms from a truck with a trailer into a robot and back. The individual truck transforms into his "Orion Pax” form based on his appearance in the Generation 1 episode "War Dawn”, and he is able to form the core of Optimus Prime’s robot mode. His trailer forms Prime’s entire body, sharing a noticeable amount of details with MP-10 mold, most notably an almost identical head sculpt. He is the first non-Masterpiece Generations G1 Optimus Prime figure to include removable Matrix of Leadership accessory, which is stored in his chest in the ’Evolved’ form. The center of his Matrix of Leadership can be replaced with any Prime Master. His ion blaster can be split into two weapons for Orion Pax to use, while also store on Optimus Prime’s back via visible 5 mm posts of Orion Pax’s hands, though this is undocumented in the instructions. The Takara version of the mold lacks the production numbers located at his right shins. Depending on the individual copy, Optimus Prime is prone to having a number of quality control issues: ranging from two left/right arms and/or legs/feet on the evolution armor, to lacking stickers on the trailer pieces. On the other hand, the trailer can also be towed by any other figure with a compatible hitch.Though designated for a first quarter 2018 release, Optimus’s wave reached U.S. store shelves in December 2017.This mold was retooled into Power of the Primes Nemesis Prime and later into Selects Star Convoy.
