Pictured here is a layout sketch by Bob Budiansky along with its final counterpart by Frank Springer for Marvel's Transformers: Headmasters spinoff series.
Interesting to see that Kup was considered for the center spot. That could explain the absence of Hot Rod's spoiler.
Both from my collection.

I stumbled across Hot Wheels Ultra Magnus this morning.
I still have never seen Optimus Prime.

This.
This is what the mainline of the Dynamite Transformers trading card series should have looked like. The best stuff was used for expensive gimmick sets.
And I fell for it.
Sigh.

POWER OF THE PRIMES EVOLUTION RODIMUS PRIME (2017)
I really liked the concept of the Evolution toys from POTP. Like the old G1 Powermaster Optimus Prime, you have a smaller figure that combines with its trailer to form the superbot. Hot Rod here can upgrade and become the torso of Rodimus Prime!

I am happy that I was able to add this specific Transformers trading card to my collection. Some of you know why. 😉

Continuing my coverage of the Transformers trading cards, be advised that the foil packs and blaster packs do not contain the same stock cards. Foil packs have the premium glossy cards. Blaster packs have retro cardboard stock, which is cool, but means they are different series....

Titans Return Brainstorm was originally a Walgreens exclusive, but returned (with some tweaks) in the Wal-Mart Headmasters retro lineup.

For anyone who needs to be reassured, Optimus Prime is indeed an Autobot!
Apparently, I lack the body heat to trigger the shield. I needed a candle to do it.

Any guesses if the Reveal the Shield gimmick will unveil Optimus Prime as an Autobot or Decepticon?

I still stand by this. Titan Books' reprints of the Marvel Transformers comics remain the best of the past 40 years. I was disappointed that Skybound's Marvel TF #1 had little improvement over the IDW reprints.
TRANSFORMERS: BEGINNINGS (2003)
In my opinion, this is the highest quality reprint of Marvel's TF#1. The art is straight from the source, so you can see Springer/DeMulder's art as intended. IDW's reprints are poor quality that appear to be scans of a printed comic. Absolutely worth hunting for.
