He's the good guy leader.

How does this relate to us? Well, one of the versions of Optimus Prime was a 2005 Dodge Ram SRT-10!
Yep- check out the "Alternators" series of Transformers from 2006.

Here's a video of the toy that was released:

(this guy is so geeky, he makes me look like James Bond)
I've been searching for one for more than a year. Bastard toy collectors don't like selling them, and when they do....they rape ya ($300 is about 10x the MSRP).

I must admit, they have fine taste in vehicles.

I *highly* doubt those are the Alternator series BT-17 "Black Convoy" ones.
Those start usually around $200-$300.

I had been loving the tranformers since I was a kid...well i still do. I bought a magazine, Truck Trend, it had informations about Ironhide who is disguised as a 2007 GMC C4500 4x4 crew cab. I think it is really cool! Oh and yes optimus prime got a phat paint job! There also have a transformer toy as optimus prime who is disguised as a ram srt-10 too. I had seen it at wal-mart. I think it is pretty cool too.

I have two of the red srt-10 alternators. One still in the box. There pretty cool. Hopefully they'll be worth some cash a couple years from now.

I would like one of those BT-17's though.
