Remember when the Autobots (excluding Bumblebee) first came to earth during the movie? They flew in and crash landed on earth; they probably weren't all shiny and flawless, and probably had a lot of wear and tear from their space travels. That's what my goal was on this Protoform Prime - a more natural look of a robot that flys through space in a cometary mode. I gave the whole figure a basic robotic-metallic design, then added some rusting-effects on various areas to show the wear I mentioned earlier. I added metallic blue and purple touchups as well. His chest windows are actually blue and purple fusing together (can't really see that in the pictures, but it's obvious in person). I added a paintjob to his gun as well, and gave him an ammo belt attached to his back, and a small flame piece on the tip. I custom made his sword from SCRATCH (used a lot of geometry) and colored it metallic blue, which can be attached into his arm easily. All in all, I think I achieved the goal I set of making him look more 'natural' rather than just a plastic toy comet robot.
This is a custom Transformers Movie Deluxe Protoform Optimus Prime, as shown in the pictures below. He comes with original transformation instructions, his gun, and his sword. Fully poseable, Optimus Prime can be transformed into his Cometary mode and back.

All of my customs are hand-painted with high quality acrylic paint, and finished with a protective coating to ensure lasting quality and longevity. I make sure to ship my items packaged carefully in sturdy material to ensure a safe trip for the item. This figure, as with all of my custom Transformers, is finished with a protective coating to eliminate paint chips and scratches during its transformation, but should still be handled and transformed with care, to reduce the chances of paint damage.
