Real-life Transformers



The transformations aren’t as complicated as Optimus Prime’s or even Bumblebee’s (some have suggested they’re more like GoBots than Transformers), but hey, it’s not every day you see an automobile sprout arms and a head. One of those heads even looks like the fearless Autobot leader’s.  The cars, which are working prototypes, are actually giant, remote-controlled toys. Each comes packaged with a controller you can use to move the car around and transform it into a robot. Once in robot mode, internal hydraulics allow it to move parts of its body including its head, arms, wrists, and fingers. It is also capable of speech courtesy of a built-in speaker.  Each Letron also boasts a sound system, an HD LCD, and WiFi technology, among other features. We’re hoping the company will equip future models with pulse cannons and laser axes. Okay, we’re kidding. Pulse cannons and laser axes would be disastrous.  The four models available are the Bizmut, Argon, Wolfram, and Tantal. There’s no word on the prices yet, but we’re guessing these toys will cost a fortune. So, unless you were born with money gushing out of your ears, you’ll have to save up for a few decades—or maybe sell a couple body parts—if you want to add them to your “Transformers” collection.
