Prime Overload!

Optimus Prime is the first completely vehicular and mechanical Autobot leader made in years, generating quite a bit of excitement. The Autobot leader hardly needs any presentation. He fights unceasingly to protect the weak and defend what he believes in. He is not only the strongest Autobot, but also the wisest and the most intelligent - to his followers he's a bottomless well of inspiration from which they draw their strength.

The Robots in Disguise version of Optimus Prime transforms into a modern fire truck. The fire truck divides into two halves, of which the front half transforms into Optimus Prime's robot mode, and the rear half transforms into a battle station with facilities for field repairs.

In robot mode Optimus Prime can combine with the trailer module to increase his size and strength. In this mode he is loaded with weapons, of which one is the giant water cannon within his ladder. The jet from the water cannon has an enormous force, so strong that it can send its targets into orbit.

Later in the series, when Ultra Magnus arrives, Optimus and Magnus discover that they can merge to form yet another super robot, with even greater strength and firepower than they have on their own. The combined mode is called Omega Prime.
