Description
TF Kingdom - Core Class - WFC-K1 Optimus Prime:

Part of the first wave of the Kingdom Core Class toys, Optimus Prime is a smaller, roughly Legends-sized mold that according to his product copy and stock images is meant to be posed with larger toys of the same character, but we would be stupid not to note that he is also a good size to interact with Titan Class figures. His transformation shares engineering with the Thrilling 30 Legends figure, but with sculpted detailing directly based on the Earthrise mold, down to detailing like the vestigial knee flaps from the Siege mold. The included Ion Blaster features a 3 mm handle under a 5 mm post, dedicated to the C.O.M.B.A.T. System.

Optimus Prime also had a very minor problem standing straight even with the legs standing flat.

Unlike the actual product, the truck door section of the wrist/hand part is unpainted in the CG stock render. Curiously, his instructions depict an Energon axe that was notably left out of the final release, and was not shown in stock photos. It is currently unknown if this axe will be included with a later release of the mold.

In Japan, Optimus Prime was released as a TakaraTomy Mall exclusive.

Not bad for a mini Prime. Even makes an attempt in replicating the details on the Earthrise Leader Class WFC-E11 Optimus Prime, right down to the head. I'm a little sad that he doesn't include the abandoned Energon axe that was notably left out of the final release, but at least he still has the Ion Blaster. ^.^
