Figure Note:
Stop-Motion Transformation of Hasbro Transformers Icons Optimus Prime. Cool idea. I hear there is also going to be a Decepticon logo that turns into Megatron, so I’ll be keeping an eye out for that preorder. It came with a display stand, but it didn’t prove to be terribly useful to me.

Production Note: 445 photos - 1 hour shoot.

Viewing Note:
If you want to follow along, I recommend skipping to the speed run and using your , and . keyboard keys to advance by single frames. Every step of the transformation is documented in the frames of the video, in what I consider to be the best sequence. With minimal rubbing and minimal parts-parking.
