This piece of art is airbrushed and painted on. The art itself measures about 16" across and 9" high. The art was created for the McDonald's Happy Meal promotion that was supposed to tie in with the new Tv show of Beast Wars. Characters featured with this artwork on the Happy Meal box were produced as toys, but some were never on the Tv show.
"Optimus" as a Bat only appeared in a 2-Pack with Megatron as a Alligator. When the show aired, they had completely different animal modes. The earlier versions were swept under the carpet never to see daylight again.
