World's First Fan-Built Age of Extinction Optimus Prime Truck Replica Completed, Now Touring

Postby D-Maximal_Primal » Sun Nov 13, 2016 11:24 pm

Motto: "There are no impossibilities in the multiverse, just small minds unable to comprehend the possibilities"
Weapon: Armor Axe
On this early Monday morning, we bring to you a special news story that has its beginnings in the Age of Extinction and beyond movies with their new version of Autobot Leader Optimus Prime.

A group of fans decided to take it upon themselves to make the Autobot Leader a reality that travels the world and makes dreams come true. And today, we are proud to tell you that the reality has reached completion.

The Fiduccia family, with official approval from Hasbro and funded by America's Footprints, has successfully built an exact replica of the Western Star Truck used to represent Optimus Prime in Age of Extinction, The Last Knight and supposedly other upcoming live-action movies as well. This replica Optimus Prime was built with a simple function in mind: to travel the world and to bring Optimus Prime to all those various fans spread out all over the globe.

During various phases of construction, Optimus has made trips to several different locations and has been spotted and both photographed and recorded during those trips. This would help explain how some fans were able to see Optimus during filming of The Last Knight when he really should have been a fair ways away! Among his destinations were: the Children's Hospital in London, London's Forest City Comic Con, a stop for photographs with the 826 ORD Madison soldiers (upon CB request!), Central Canada Comic Con, and more!

This special Optimus Prime will be travelling around the world, and you can keep up with Optimus at the Optimus Is Here Facebook page! Like the page, and keep up with wherever Optimus ends up next. For all you know, you will get the chance to be photographed with one of the most famous Big Rigs of all time!

To close out this special story, we share with you some of the pictures that have been taken with Optimus Prime during his travels thus far. Check them out below, and remember to keep watching! You never know when Optimus may find his way to your hometown!
