As we had previously reported, the impressive and enormous Transformers Rise Of The Beasts Optimus Prime & Optimus Primal statues have started a world tour and they have just landed on Singapore. They were revealed to the public with a quite big and impressive fan event.
Courtesy of fellow Singaporean fans and Instagram users @joanne_ying79, @jesterhatsjhund and @sgtoygeek we have an extensive gallery of this impressive event organized by Geek Culture, UIP Singapore (United International Pictures) and Hasbro Singapore and held at Gardens By The Bay in Marina Bay Sands. Besides the statues reveal, it was like a Transformers party for all attendants. Read on for details:
- Attendants received gift boxes with Transformers products.
- Rise Of The Beasts Toys on display. Both Studio Series and mainline.
- XM Studios Galvatron and Bumblebee & Spike statues exhibit.
- Rise Of The Beasts Skechers shoes revealed.
- Rise Of The Beasts Gaming chair uThrone V by Osim.
- Trivia quizzes where you could win prizes.
- Rise Of The Beasts standees and official posters.
- Special video greeting of Rise Of The Beasts Director Steven Caple Jr. and some exclusive clips.
- Statue unveiling with the “The Touch” as BGM.
- Screening of the Bumblebee movie.
As a very nice touch, the statues and surroundings have got special lights and decoration which look stunning together with the Marina Bay Sands building behind. Watch all the mirrored images after the jump, as well as a video of the unveiling of the statues after the jump, and then let us know your impressions on the 2005 Boards!

What is that mystery box on the ground between Optimus Prime's feet? Is that the trailer?

Fuck this was so cool to see in person. I didn't want to leave! They're both so detailed and large. Even friends and family who I texted pics afterwards admitted that they looked super impressive and cool. I had to restrain myself from running up and stealing pieces lol.

I'm guessing once the tour is complete they'll find their way to either Universal Studios or some other permanent location that's already agreed upon. Maybe that dude in Georgetown can hold on to them.

I thought it's a Transit sightning…

This just reminds me that we don't have enough bus-formers. I'd love a Double Decker Bus bot.
