Two of the biggest fandoms have come together for the first time with the Hot Wheels Transformers Optimus Prime. Modeled after his first appearance in Generation 1, this die-cast version of the Autobot leader can convert from a heavy-duty truck cab into a towering robot, ready to battle the Decepticons. We even designed the packaging so you could display it in either vehicle or robot mode.

That's so much for something so tiny that doesn't even come with a trailer, but I image Mattel paid A LOT for the privilege. Appears to be all diecast aside from the windows and wheels. Between this and Flame Toys it's really interesting to see Hasbro loosen things up. I wonder if we could see a KO company go straight some day?
I would have bought this too. always a slim chance of a restock though or repaints.
