How to UPGRADE your Lego Optimus Prime!
In this video I show you 3x superb upgrades that you can do to improve your Lego Icons Optimus Prime model (set #10302). These include improving the shape and look of the head, adding knee joints to the legs to improve pose-ability of the model in robot form and finally building a trailer for Optimus, that includes options to allow you to store the accessory items (Power Axe, Energon Cube and Jetpack) included with the Lego model.

* IMPORTANT * - the designer has updated his design for the knees to version 3, since I published this video. I recommend you go with version 3 + his parts list listed on Rebrickable. Some, but not all of my suggested part colour changes, will apply to this new version.
