Optimus Prime

Optimus Prime is the stoic leader of the Autobots. He transforms from a towering robot form into that of an eighteen-wheeler. His trademark phrase is, "Autobots! Transform and roll out!" Having defended the Earth against the evil Decepticons for many years, Prime ultimately lost his life in a final battle with Megatron. Upon his passing, the Matrix of Leadership was passed along to Hot Rod, who became Rodimus Prime. Eventually, Prime's "spark" was brought back online and he lived once again.
