Very Cool Sculpture Using Used Car Parts!

As many of you know, I'm a big Transformers fan. Here is something I came across, someone with skill and too much time on their hands created a 7-foot tall sculpture of Optimus Prime. COOL.

7-Foot Optimus Prime Constructed From Old Car Parts

When cars die, they don't go to some magical car heaven (except for hybrids, maybe). But the best, luckiest ones just might become Transformer replicas. Standing at 87 inches tall and weighing a respectable 485 pounds, this Optimus Prime statue is a probably the most compelling argument for recycling we've ever seen. And its leg detail is as incredible as the torso:

At $4,838.71 (plus shipping, of course), we'd say that this hand-crafted Transformer has a downright reasonable price. But that's not going to help one bit as we pitch the spouse on another car...that can't actually run. [Robot Models via GeekAlerts]
