Making a Transformer toy switch from its robot mode to vehicle mode normally takes a little elbow grease–and is part of the charm–but this cute remote control radio control version of Optimus Prime will do all that for you. Even better, it’s on sale at Walmart right now for $15 (was $51) as the brand takes on Amazon Prime Big Deal Days, making this an ideal gift for younger fans of Transformers.
Update: Walmart lowered the sale price from $20 to $15 on October 9.
$15 (was $51)
Inspired by the Autobot leader’s iconic Generation One design, this remote control car converts from a truck to robot and back with the push of a button, and batteries are included. Robot mode captures the boxy appeal of Optimus from his early appearances and toys, while the vehicle mode is the spitting image of his transformation. Once transformed, Optimus can actually walk forward thanks to the motors in his legs, or drive forward in his truck form. The toy also includes lights and sound effects, with several soundbites sourced from the Transformers animated movie.
This is just one of many deals you can find at Walmart right now. Also available in the digital toy aisle are $13 plushies of sleepy Pikachu and Teddiursa Pokemon, and if you’re looking for Lego, you can get sets like the Sanderson’s Sisters Cottage for $180 (was $230).
