1984 was a long time ago but to mark that special anniversary Hasbro have released a commemorative 25thAnniversary Edition of the greatest Transformer of all time ... Optimus Prime !!!
And, whilst the toys based on the CGI created Optimus Prime from this summer's blockbuster may look impressive nothing can quite beat the retro feel of the original Transformers toys ... and this Optimus Prime toy has been accurately produced so that it has both the look and feel of the 1984 original.
