It’s that time of the month when we collect the very best that Transformers Twitter has to offer, including the finest artwork, photos, memes and s**tposts that you could imagine! And yes, a fair bit of this month is dedicated to *that* sexy Optimus Prime image.
As ever, they’re presented vaguely in date order, although only very roughly. The important thing to remember is this is a celebration of creativity in the community, not a competition or popularity contest of any kind. Enjoy!

I reworked two of my early designs:
Jazz and Cliffjumper
The bike-gun is a nod to human alliance toy.
It's a gift that Prowl gave to Jazz#Transformers pic.twitter.com/nm9khOQoz4— Shan4rt (Commissions OPEN) (@shan_4rt) January 29, 2022

Pretender Bludgeon. This is part of the "Decepticon Leaders" toyline concept I've been posting images from. I love the idea of bringing back Pretenders, and Bludgeon would be one of the most obvious to go for. pic.twitter.com/hYJghRMiwI

This is far from the only post by Andrew on the list this month… in fact, the temptation to just include his entire Twitter feed was palpable!
