Lego Transformers Optimus Prime Is Finally Back In Stock With A Big Discount

The extremely cool Optimus Prime Lego set has been difficult to find in stock at any retailer for months, but the Autobot leader has quietly transformed his Amazon listing to in stock with Prime delivery. Considering how scarce the 1,508-piece Lego Transformers kit has been--it was sold out even before the holiday shopping season--it's somewhat surprising that Amazon is also offering a 20% discount that drops the price of Optimus Prime to $144 (was $180). Amazon's deal matches the all-time low price that we've previously seen during big sales events like Black Friday.
We wouldn't be surprised to see this 2-in-1 build--Optimus can quickly switch between mech and truck modes--sell out again soon. If Amazon sells out, it's worth noting that the Lego Store restocked Optimus Prime, too, but you'll have to pay the full $180 MSRP. Lego officially denotes Optimus Prime as "hard to find." This description combined with the prolonged stock shortages could mean that the Optimus Prime kit, which debuted in 2022, is close to retirement.
