Grand Patriot is a fictional character made by Xovergen as a third party Transformer. He is a homage to the 1984 Transformer Optimus Prime and the 1988 G.I. Joe vehicle Rolling Thunder.

Transformers

Grand Patroit was inspired by an unused concept creat by artist Don Figueroa as the Transformer Optimus Prime that turned into a G.I. Joe Rolling Thunder vehicle.[1] He was announced on the internet in 2010, and released in early 2011 in two color, one resembling Optimus Prime and the other green like the Rolling Thunder.

Note: Grand Patriot is not the only G.I. Joe theme third party Transformer. There has also been Snake and Powerrat. Other third party Transformers inspired by Optimus Prime include Junkion Blacksmith's Justice Leader and Xovergen's Grand Patriot.
