Maintenance

Cleaning

To clean your Optimus Prime figure, gently wipe it with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or excessive water, as these can damage the paint or plastic.

Storage

Store the figure in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause discoloration. Keep it away from dust and moisture to preserve its condition.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty with Transformation

If you encounter difficulty during transformation:

• Review the transformation steps carefully.
• Ensure all previous steps are completed correctly before proceeding.
• Do not force parts. If a part does not move easily, re-examine the mechanism.
• Check for any small parts that might be misaligned or obstructing movement.

Loose or Stiff Joints

Over time, joints may become loose or stiff. Gentle manipulation can sometimes help. If a joint is excessively loose, it may indicate wear, but this is rare for new figures. Stiff joints can often be loosened with careful, gradual movement.
