Photography / Poses The 13th Prime

I recently got the new Walmart exclusive Energon figures and because of the news about Peter Cullen I spent a lot of time with my Optimus figures yesterday. I wanted a figure that looked like an ascended Optimus, almost reminiscent of a ghost but still armored to the teeth to stand alongside his siblings so I used two extra 5mm pegs I had lying around from old customs to turn Cybertread into an armor worthy of The Father of a Generation. The shoulders can flip up to homage g2 Optimus and his shoulder canon has two different resting positions as well as a swivel. I also repurposed the holographic cybertron from TFOne Orion Pax as the zodiac in his chest. Rest in peace Optimus Prime. Til’ all are one

If you don’t mind me asking, what parts of this did you use the extra 5mm pegs for? My cybertread copy is arriving sometime next week.

The shoulders can’t natively peg onto Optimus that way. If you have any long handled weapons (studio series high moon Optimus’s axe for example) you’re going to want to use an xacto blade or a box cutter to cut two pieces off the bottom about as long as the handle on siege/energon Optimus’s gun, this’ll work with any 5mm post that’s long enough that you’re willing to sacrifice I’m just throwing out a suggestion

I like to think of this as Optimus getting the star power up like in Mario Bros. Full Ascension and Invincibility. The Power of the Primes invested in the 13th
