We reported here that one of the prizes for the Transform Your Summer Pepsi Transformers Movie promotion is a "Pepsi Optimus Prime TRANSFORMERS Collectible". Not much was known about Pepsi Optimus Prime. Now DESTRO of TFW2005 has posted the bio for the figure. Here it is:
"TRANSFORMERS Pepsi OPTIMUS PRIME
It is of paramount importance to OPTIMUS PRIME that his mission and the presence of the AUTOBOTS on Earth remain a secret. Part of maintaining that secret is changing his disguise from time to time, though never so drastically that he has to get used to a whole new vehicle mode. This new disguise helps keep him incognito, hiding his presence from the DECEPTICONS and allowing him to plan their defeat without interruption. As an added bonus, this disguise, like some of his past ones, lets him hook up his fellow AUTOBOTS with some free Earth delicacies they rarely get to enjoy
Pepsi OPTIMUS PRIME is a G1-styled figure with prominent Pepsi deco featured on the cab and open-bed trailer."

Alright! I had the original Pepsi Prime when I was a kid but it was sold by a storage. I still miss that thing even now.

I'm very happy with my Pepsi Convoy that I ordered the first time around... If I can get this guy, He'll be kept nice and minty-"in the box"-fresh...
Pretty cool though, didn't know if we'd be seeing him released over here... and if I have to ramp up my Pepsi intake for a little while, then so be it! My future diabetes thanks you Pepsi-Cola!

Crap! I already have the Japanese reissue! 
The only difference I could see is having regular Pepsi, instead of that Pepsi Twist bottle. Maybe Mountain Dew? That would be cool.

I really don't know what to think...I love the original Prime, but more as a childhood memory - having been spoiled by the newer versions, I really wouldn't want the original today - even if it is an 'exclusive'

A reissue of a repainted reissue?
Pepsi has got to be loving their idea to get Pepsi Prime made.

Oh, heck yeah! Dr. Pepper is one of my all time favorite sodas! Pepper Prime would rock!
Kinda reminds me of that scene in "Return of Optimus Prime" when Wreck-Gar (who was infected with the hate plague) turned to Rodimus and said, "I'm a Pepper. Wouldn't you like to be a Pepper too?" Then he infected Rodimus. Sorry, just a random thought!

Why would Optimus give his troops pop? Does no one remember G.B. Blackrock putting sugar in the fuel tanks of the Throttlebots? And where did that get them? It got their friggin' brains put into little race cars, crammed together in a suitcase, and Goldbug got broke in two by a giant robot bat who was p.o'ed that a goofball human ruined his plans for a hypnotic car wash...(what am I talking about again?).
Nothing but trouble.
