Anchalee Saengtai Creates Incredible Life-Size Replicas of Autobots

— June 10, 2011 — Eco
So if the DIY projects on the Internet haven't inspired you to go eco on arts and crafts, wait till you get a load of what Thai sculptor Anchalee Saengtai has done.

The very talented artist Anchalee Saengtai has created a life-size version of the leader of the Autobots, Optimus Prime -- entirely out of scrap automobile parts! So clearly, Saengtai is looking forward to Transformers 3 this summer. In addition to this 19-foot Optimus Prime, she's also built an 8-foot tall version of the same character as well as Bumblebee. These were all created for Ripley’s Believe It or Not locations which you should absolutely check out if you're in the area.

These sculptures are every fanboy's dream -- I know I'm certainly drooling over them. I pray that Saengtai does one of Decepticon's bad boy's Starscream.
