One man's junk is another's 7-foot-tall Optimus Prime sculpture
Here's a robot sculpture that would spark a lot of debate between fans of the Autobots or Decepticons. Autobots' leader Optimus Prime is looking a little thin in all his junky glory, but the sculpture is still really impressive. It's made entirely from scrap and stands over 7 feet tall, weighs 550 pounds and costs a whopping $6,900.
If you don't have $6,900 handy, there's a few smaller options. There's 2.3-foot Optimus for $700, and a 1.3-foot one for $275. Bumblebee also got a little love at $275, standing over two feet tall.
None of them actually transform, though with a baseball bat and a blowtorch you may be able to make it happen.
Check out the gallery below for more views of ol' Optimus.
