Blokees Wheels Transformers CT01 Optimus Prime

Blokees Wheels CT01 is Optimus Prime in truck mode with his trailer, a 78-piece 1:64-scale kit rated 9+ and priced at $12.99, the lowest price and youngest age in this group. It does not become a robot. Blokees says the trailer opens into a combat-deck play platform with a launcher module, stands on its own with fold-out legs, and comes with swappable silver smokestacks, standard-size tires and rims, and dual rear wheels. Blokees says its SOLIDEX material is denser than standard plastic.

We read 14 owner reviews on Blokees' store; 13 give five stars. Owners like the price, the opening cab, the trailer repair bay with Roller, and the smokestack option. The single low review is about a box crushed in shipping. A TFW2005 member review praised the paint but found Roller's wheels splayed, which turned out to be a wrong wheel assortment in that copy; a replacement worked.

It suits kids 9 and up and desk collectors who want a small G1-style truck with play features. Skip it if you want a posable robot; the Classic and Champion Class Optimus kits are robots only.
