Say what you want about Michael Bay's treatment of the "Transformers" for the big-screen, but absolutely nobody can deny that his more-than-meets-the-eye transforming robots from Cybertron were off the charts in their coolness.
And now, you may just have a chance to own your very own Optimus Prime or Bumblebee — if you've got deep enough pockets that is.
Famed Car auctioneer Barrett-Jackson is offering two of the cars used for the 'Transformers' films in an auction later in January. The cars are completely customized and road-worthy and are sure to have heads turning and wondering if they will roll out and transform into the giant Autobots.
Optimus Prime is one big stunt truck with tinted windows, a paint job with its bad-ass movie flames, and a custom grille donning the silver and red Autobots insignia. It also has a custom aluminum bumper with matching aluminum wheels, tanks, and storage boxes.
You can drive around Bumblebee in style and comfort with cool, modern air conditioning fitted in, a new stereo, and late-model leather seating in the interiors of the Resto-Mod Camaro.
"This duo that ranks among the most famous vehicles in the world from the Hollywood big screen will cross the block at WestWorld," said the Barrett-Jackson description of these amazing Hollywood treasures going up for auction at the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale docket.
