With Trucking in Decline, Optimus Prime Takes New Job as Canon Camera

More than meets the eyepiece

By Rain Noe - August 11, 2022

in Toy

Japanese toymaker Takara Tomy now makes an Optimus Prime that transforms into a working Canon EOS R5 mirrorless camera.

He is opposed by the Decepticon known as Reflector (rendered "Refraktor" in Japanese pronunciation).

Hilariously, they both come with their own smaller (non-functional) camera that they can hold. I guess that camera is for selfies, since they can't photograph themselves with the main lens, because they are the main lens.
