Transformable LEGO Optimus Prime Set to Arrive This Spring (CBR)

Optimus Prime, the stalwart leader of the Autobots, is getting his own LEGO kit that is reportedly based on the G1 iteration of the Transformer.

Optimus Prime is arguably more recognizable in his robot form but the adaptation of a character known for having a vehicular form lines up with LEGO's recent emphasis on iconic movie transportation. While no visual of the build was provided, enthusiasts will be able to get their hands on the Optimus Prime set in June.

Lego is great at keeping secrets. A large Optimus Prime Lego set is likely on the way to retailers now.

Some Lego sets that already exist use the same pieces for three different builds (meaning we could get some triple changers!) Lego is kicking of Transformers' reign in Lego the right way: with the leader of the Autobots. If this product flies off of shelves (which it likely will), I'd love to see more Transformers get the brick treatment. The latest surprise for Lego is sets based on the Transformers license, and it's happening soon.
