To celebrate G-Shock and Transformers’ 35th anniversary, this year, watch company Casio and toymaker Takara Tomy have collaborated to create a limited edition Optimus Prime watch. The Transformers G-Shock DW6900-IV has a red bezel, blue bands, and a silver face with the iconic Transformers logo. When the backlight is activated, the legendary Autobot emblem appears. The set also includes a fully-transforming Optimus Prime figure that uses the watch as its Matrix of Leadership chest piece. When the watch is transformed, Optimus Prime into a watch stand to display your heroic timepiece. The figure also comes with an extra Matrix of Leadership insert to fill in the gap when the watch is on your wrist and a couple of blasters to help the big bad bot protect your G-Shock.
The Transformers toy line was launched in the U.S. market in 1984 and was followed by a hit animated television series and comic book series. The Transformers toy line and animated television series were later released in Japan in 1985. The Transformers live action movie directed by Michael Bay and produced by Hollywood mogul Steven Spielberg was released in 2007 and became a big hit, launching a movie franchise. More than 500 million Transformers figures have been sold to date worldwide in over 130 countries and regions, a testament to the massive global popularity of the Transformers franchise.
