Full-sized transformer in China

CNET Asia blogger Rick Martin has posted pictures from various Chinese sites about two guys from Nanjing who built a life-sized Transformer robot. This 4.5m piece took the builders three months to make with parts from a Citroen C2 car.

This model doesn't really transform or move, but it's impressive nonetheless. In an interview with a Chinese newspaper, the creators said they are planning to build an even larger Optimus Prime in the future. That'll be quite a sight--and one we can hardly wait for.
