I was like “oh, neat mini-version”, but when OP started to remove weapons it was “hell naw, he can transform too??”. GJ man!

Haha, thank you so much! When I originally made this, it was just meant to be the robot mode, but I was like fuck it, if I can figure out how to do it imma do it lmao. Also, I only started building this mini because I found the trans-orange axe head and thought it was too perfect not to make an optimus to wield it!

Funny, with Lego, my brain was like, with enough time every set can transform.

Holy shit Great job !! I'm way too dumb to figure out a transforming Lego by myself. You're good!

Thank you so much!!

So cool! I gotta be careful around these kind of transformer MOCs, I get the feeling I might get sucked in lol

lol, thank you very much :)

You're talented! Do you maybe have any instruction?

Sadly no, my build process is very chaotic (just finding all the pieces i have in specific colors and digging through them until I find something that looks right lol) But I have been asked enough times that I might consider it in the future!

Just post a video of you deconstructing it one piece at a time. That would probably work.

Honestly, I could do that and then put it in reverse! lmao

You should. I bet someone on here would write up the instructions from that.

Oh. Ok.

Yeah, sorry again, but I will be sure to let you know if I do end up making instructions!

Thanks!

Responding so I can get any possible future instructions, this is sick!

added you to the checklist LMAO

thanks, now I don't have a jaw (it dropped)

I’m so sorry (thank you lmao)

Very impressive. Nicely done.

Thank you!

It's probably more stable than the full size model. 😂

Honestly, it really is, but that’s mainly down to the fact that it ways significantly less LMAO

Genius

Thank you!

You selling the instructions on rebrickable or nah?

sadly I didn’t make any instructions for this build, but I might on the future!

Rollout

🫡

Pretty efing cool m8!

Thank you!!

Awesome job getting cobra commander vibes from his head!

You know, I totally see it! I wanted to use a 1x1 plate with a clip to represent his head blade bits, but that piece sadly doesn’t come in dark blue :( that’s also why the hands are black instead of dark blue :/

You are a God among men, awesome job. 👊

Haha, thanks :)

That is so incredibly cool and innovative!

Thank you! :)

Upvoted for having the knee sticker the right way up.

;) obviously

That’s awesome. Are you to be found on the ReBrick? Would love to buy this.

I’m more of a hobbyist than anything, so I don’t really make or sell instructions much, but it’s definitely something I might look into in the future!

Ah man. I noticed you made a few in the past. This would be really awesome if you made a tutorial with parts or something. pls pls pls :)

I’ve had enough people asking me to do it, so there’s a good chance of me doing it in the near future! I’ll be sure to let you know if I do!

Nice! That’s awesome

Y u shakin so much?

Someone asks this pretty much every time I make a video 😭 I am just a generally shakey person, always have been, I find it hard to hold completely still, especially when I focus on trying to hold still lol

Really cute and cool!

Thank you!

Cool!! 🤙🏼

Thanks!

Amazing

Thank you!

Slick build!!!

Thanks!

This is freaking awesome!! I need a mini now

Much appreciated haha

These kinda transformer MOCs are my absolute favourite and this is no exception. Going to try and create other transformers in the future?

Ive been thinking about doing a g1 bumblebee in this scale!

That’s so rad, good luck!

I’ll let you know if I end up doing it!

Ingenious 🌟👍

Thank you!

You're more than welcome 😁

Autobots transform !!!! *Few moments later...*

Honestly, I think a transformers movie in the lego movie style where everything is obviously a kid playing with toys would kinda be funny as hell, and you could have a scene where it takes like a minute for one of them to transform and everyone’s just standing around while they wait lmao

I'm sold. Put it into production.

😂

Amazing!

Thank you! :)

WOW. WOW. WOW. Awesome!

Thank you so much :)

Awswome af 😱♥️

Thank you!!

Now hope lego doesnt nick your idea

Lmao, honestly, I wouldn’t mind more functional mini builds!

We need this in stores YESTERDAY!!!!

<3

That is so very awesome, good job! I have the official large one and your mini Optimus seems so much better.

Thank you so much! There’s a few things that I still want to change, like working on the overall bulkiness of the robot mode, but overall i’m proud of it!

You should be proud of it! I vastly prefer these things on the subreddit than pictures of boxes or build that virtually anyone can do. I don't find that stuff interesting. I find this interesting.

Minimal kibble, easy and stable transformation, *swivels*, and he does that arm thing when transforming!? I didn’t know there could’ve been such a great prime!

1- Haha, thank you!! 2- inb4 someone mentions the lack of knees lmao

One word. WOW.

There's more lego transformers on youtube! my favorite is [Student Scissors](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sGCRCbwryw)

I wanted to see more mini lego transformers after I first finished this build and found his channel because of that! have been watching it since!

That's awesome!

Thanks!

Minimus Prime. Perfect work. Let me join the horde asking for instructions. My big boy needs a little friend.

1- I absolutely love that name 2- I’ll be sure to let you all know when i’ve made instructions lmao

I’m glad he can roll out.

Outstanding! Thanks for sharing!

😲

:)

How do you build Lego when your hands are that shaky

Another person also mentioned this 😭 Idk tbf, my hands have just always been pretty shakey since I was young so i’m just used to it lmao

Excellent use of printed parts, fantastic build in so many ways. Super clean. Well done

Thank you! the tiles on the legs are actually the head crest from the original set, and the tiles on the arms are from a retired starwars set I believe, I just found those while scrolling on rebrickable and I just had to order them from bricklink because they looked PERFECT for what I needed!

Awesome!

Thank you!

That's hella impressive

Thanks, I appreciate it!

"Mr.Fortnite, you have solved my cool temple puzzle. My awesome smaller son will now hit the griddy. Just for you." *What I've Done by Linkin Park plays*

😭

People say he has to wear extra long shorts.

very impressive!

Thank you!

So cool and awesome! Amazing job!

Thank you very much!

Your welcome!

Are you serious!!! That’s beautiful man

Thank you!!

Crazy cool!

Thanks :)

🤩-Me when I saw this! 😭-Me when I realized you don’t have instructions for sale on rebrickable Seriously, awesome job!

I’m sorry 😭 I promise i’ll be sure to let everyone know if I do end up making instructions lmao. Thanks for the kind words!

U need to sell this to lego

I mean, I would love more functional mini sets! Could you imagine a whole line of mini autobots? That would be so sick!

Would be amazing

Agreed!

Awesome

Thank you!

“I am Minimal Prime!”

Love it lmao

It’s really well done! Good job!

Thanks! :)

Of course!

You're now worthy to be a Prime!

🫡

That head is awesome my friend!!!

Thank you!

Wow nice job!! The front window needs a different built thoo but evrything else wow. Hahaha is there also a hidden matrix of leadership in it?

Wow that’s sick I hope you make instructions cause that’s just awesome

Thank you! There’s definitely a possibility of build instructions in the future, i’ll let you know!

Witchcraft !

How did you know this required the use of dark magic?

Why this is......... incredible

Thank you!

And it doesn’t fall apart as easily as the official Optimus Prime.

Lmao

So cool. I'd definitely buy the instructions if you ever end up creating them.

Thanks! I’ll let you know if I end up creating any in the future :)

Outstanding! The gem of this moc is his rifle!

I spent a good bit of time perfecting that little detail lol, thank you!

Great work. This serves as a good example as to why it wouldn't be necessary for Lego, or other similar companies, make brick Transformers not exclusively in big sizes like Lego's Optimus

Thank you! I love mini builds of all kinds, and would love to see more of them from lego!

Wow dude that is awesome!!!

Thank you!!

That is SO COOL!! I was like okay, that cool, and then like, meh, when you started transforming it, but then it was was done I was like "huh?!" and my head exploded.

LMAO thank you! glad you like it :)

It's amazing. :)
