The Optimus Prime Dryer is a DIY creation of a Taiwanese man. Since his son is a major fan of Transformers, the father made a replica of Optimus Prime using $1,600 worth of junked metal. Not only is the robot model massive in size, it also supports the family's laundry line. For those skeptics who only thought Optimus Prime could transform into a GM truck, here's proof that he can also easily transform into GE dryer too!
Implications - Transformers fans can be jealous of this Taiwanese boy, whose father built him a 14-foot-tall replica of Optimus Prime which was both fun for him and practical for the house. The robot replica will double as a laundry dryer and a life-sized toy, and who knows, maybe he will even train him to fight crime.
