Lego Optimus Prime Transforms From Robot to Truck, No Rebuild Required

Lego Optimus Primeis a feat of toy engineering and ingenuity.

The most impressive feature is that Optimus can morph from standing robot dude to semi truck without a rebuild.

Transformers have always been complex toys, even when they’re not made out of individual Lego bricks.

The Lego version has 19 points of articulation to help it change form.

It shows an animated version of the transformation.

Lego Optimus is a callback to the 1980s when the first toys and Transformers show came out.

It’s a collaboration between Lego and Hasbro, which owns the Transformers toy line.
