[Papercraft Alliance] G1 Optimus Prime

 

Optimus Prime: the fearless leader of the Autobots and the ultimate robot dad for every kid who grew up in the '80s and '90s. Charismatic, courageous, and respected by allies and enemies alike, he’s the kind of bot you’d want leading your intergalactic resistance.

But before the war, Optimus wasn’t quite so... prime. He was known as Orion Pax—a civilian with a spark of hope and a girlfriend named Ariel (because yes, even Transformers need love 💕). Tragically, the couple was severely injured by none other than Megatron. Enter the Aerialbots, time-traveling heroes from the future, who brought their battered bodies to Alpha Trion with a desperate plea: fix them.

Young Alpha Trion saw something special in Orion Pax. He rebuilt him from the ground up and gave him a new name: Optimus Prime. Ariel got her own upgrade too, emerging as the fierce and fabulous Elita One.

Now, speaking of upgrades... this papercraft from Papercraft Alliance is a total gem. It comes with 43 pages of non-colored templates and—wait for it—it’s transformable. Heck yeah!! Click below to download and start crafting your own legendary Autobot.
