Transformers are real, just a lot smaller than in the movies

I had to suppress my excitement when I first saw this video. I frikken’ love Transformers and I always wished they were real. Now thanks to Kenji Ishida and JS Robotics they are.

Well, at least one is, and at a much smaller scale than anything we ever saw in the cartoons and the recent Baytastic movies. Unfortunately this little fella doesn’t pontificate on the nature of the Universe a la Optimus Prime and he’s also a little clunky in car mode. Still, it’s awesome. Thank you Japan.
