It's Easter Sunday as of this posting, so it's only natural to have resurrection on the brain. When I think resurrection, I think Optimus Prime: the beloved Autobot hero (or murder machine, if we're counting the live action movie iteration) who has died and come back to life more times than I'm comfortable counting.
The number of toy releases the character has had is far more shocking however. The Transformers franchise has several iconic characters and designs, but it would be difficult to argue that any of them trump Optimus as the most recognizable. As such, the development team at Hasbro has made sure sure there's an Optimus Prime available in the action figure aisle at pretty much all times.
Fortunately, the character's role as a leader and a major selling point for the brand means that there's usually considerable effort put into his toys. I've kept it awfully wordy thus far, but this is indeed a list post. Let's get to it: in chronological order, here are 10 of the best Optimus Prime toys released thus far!
