OPTIMUS PRIME REPLICA TRUCK
MAJOR PERKS AND HIGHLIGHTS
We currently boast an online following of over 1.4 MILLION ORGANIC FANS (and growing). This becomes a new advertising market for your event when we announce our pending appearance via multiple formats (email, website, text, and social media). When booked, you will also become the exclusive host for Optimus up until your event! With the exception of school presentations & private visits, no other public event appearances will be scheduled in your community in the time leading up to your show. We have successfully partnered with over 300 events across North America, and have the references you may need to back us.
