To commemorate the past 40 years of – More Than Meets the Eye – the team recognized the need for a HasLab project that fans have been dreaming of adding to their collections. The original stylings of TRANSFORMERS: Robots in Disguise Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus are back for the first time since 2001, updated with improved articulation and structural stability for more dynamic figure poses.
Hisashi Yuki-san, designer of the original TRANSFORMERS: Robots in Disguise Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus toys in 2000, returns to this project. The HasLab is packed with the classic features of the original toy that fans loved, while updating the design to reflect the modern standards of TRANSFORMERS action figure articulation.
Optimus Prime
In 2001, TRANSFORMERS: Robots in Disguise reintroduced our heroic leader, Optimus Prime, with a firetruck alt mode. This HasLab rendition of Optimus Prime refreshes this unique alt mode with deco based on the animation and includes classic features from the original toy. This figure will stand 8.5 inches tall in robot mode and comes with blaster and two Matrix of Leadership accessories.

● 8.5 inches tall (22 cm) in robot mode
● Converts from robot to iconic firetruck cab mode

Command Center

● Articulated ladder
● Features 4 rotating missiles inside the ladder
● Missiles include 5mm ports for blast effects. Blast effects also fit in the top of the ladder (blast effects are sold separately, subject to availability)

Super Mode

Omega Prime
Power-hungry and greedy, Ultra Magnus forced Optimus Prime into a combined state with himself to steal the power of the Matrix of Leadership. The result: Omega Prime was created, a powerful combiner that both Optimus Prime and Ultra Magnus had equal control over. This HasLab project is the culmination of 40 years of Transformers innovation, leaning in heavily on everything fans loved about the original figure. The classic combination is still the star feature, with improved structural support and a sleek design to be able to withstand the awesome action poses of a hefty combiner.

● Tier #2 16,000 Backers): 2 Combinable Global Space Bridge Display Stands
○ The Cybertronian network of roads, known as the Global Space Bridge, is the fastest way for the Autobots to travel around Earth.

Pose the figures separately on the two included 7.75-inch stand bases or combine the bases into one larger 15.25-inch base to display the Omega Prime combiner.
