Transformers - Optimus Prime Designer Statue

Autobots, paint roller out! The Optimus Prime Designer Collectible Statue by artist Sket One shows an iconic Transformers hero ready to blast some color at the morally gray Decepticons.

Artist Statement:
My graffiti-inspired design reimagines the Autobots leader as a paint warrior with modified spray-nozzle blaster, paint roller staff, prime respirator, and more. The toy transforms the character from truck to train with a torso design based on the classic Redbird NYC subway trains. Covered in dripping paint, I wanted to work several fun details into the piece including spray can holders and paint trays integrated into the Transformer's legs and the classic graffiti "throw-up" on the windows.
