The Autobots leader, who was voiced by long-time “Transformers” voice actor Peter Cullen during the appearance, accepted the award following an introduction from stars of the franchise’s upcoming sequel “Rise of the Beasts.”
It led to a brief speech from the iconic character before the Kids’ Choice Awards blimp rested on the leader’s shoulder.
″Let this award seal the bond between humans, Maximals and Autobots as we fight together to protect the planet,” said Optimus Prime.
Twitter users later celebrated – and joked about – the award’s recipient.
