Optimus Prime
The Autobot leader who transforms into a surprisingly normal truck/Mythical & Fictional
Optimus Prime is the leader of the Autobots in the Transformers franchise, a sentient robot from the planet Cybertron who transforms into a Freightliner FL86 cab-over-engine truck (in the original 1984 cartoon) or a Peterbilt 379 (in the Michael Bay films). Standing about 8.5 meters tall in robot form, he wields the Matrix of Leadership and has died and been resurrected so many times that it has become a running joke in the fandom. Despite being a 4,300-kilogram alien robot wielding an energon axe, his primary character trait is making inspirational speeches about freedom.
