Life-size Optimus Prime made from recycled steel

Written by Darren 'Starscream' Jamieson on March 12, 2010 | Merchandise |

Ask any Transformers fan what they want for Christmas and they’ll all say the same thing ‘a real life size Transformer’ – if they had time to think about it of course. Sadly, there aren’t many opportunities to own a giant hulk of metal that looks cool as hell stood in your garden, scares the neighbours’ pets and answers to the name of Optimus Prime – until now.

A company based in Ireland no less, called RoboSteel, makes 2.5 metre tall versions of Optimus Prime to order! Now you can have the Christmas present of your dreams, so long as you have the €5,500.00 to pay for it.

Optimus Prime is made from totally 100% recycled materials, so you can even persuade your parents, wife or girlfriend that you’re doing your bit for the environment by purchasing a huge chunk of baddass metal for your garden, or front room – if your ceiling is high enough.

As you can see by the photos, Optimus doesn’t just cast an awesome shadow, he even attracts the best looking women around – so he would also be good for your social life. Although, we don’t think RoboSteel guarantee that you’ll attract women who look like this if you bought one, we’re checking their terms and conditions later.

Don’t worry about transport either as you don’t have to try and strap Optimus to the roof of your car. RoboSteel can deliver, even to the USA.

Check out the Optimus Prime here.
