Optimus Prime the fearless but compassionate leader of the heroic Autobots.
Upon the destruction of their planet Cybertron. The Autobots and Decepticons sought the power of the cube. After discovering that the cube was on Earth Megatron followed it and crash landed on the planet. Lucky for us he was frozen in ice and his quest to obtain the cube was put on halt. Optimus and several Autobots also came to Earth to stop Megatron from getting his hands on the Cube. Thus the continuation of the Cybertronian war here on Earth. With the help of the boy Sam Witwicky and several USAF personnel lead by Capt. Lennox, the Autobots prevailed and Megatron was entombed in the deepest part of the ocean. [story from the movie Transformers 1]
On the second movie Revenge of the fallen. It was revealed that in ancient times humans and Cybertronians had already made contact with each other. During this time one of the Primes became corrupted and sought the power of the Matrix.
