Transformers- What Are They In Reality?

With the recent films revitalising the series I thought it would be quite a cool idea to list some of the well known characters from the series and actually put down what vehicle they are in the real world.

Optimus Prime

Optimus prime is one if not the most famous transformer of all time simply because he is in charge of the famous Autobots. Since the beginning of the series he has been able to transform into many different vehicles but the most famous (helped partly by the films) is the semi truck. However he has also been seen as a fire engine and various aircraft.

Megatron

This really wouldnt be worthy of being called a post on Transformers if I didnt include Megatron who is easily the best bad guy out there. These are usually the two that end up having the hige final battle at the end you would have seen this in the comic, cartoon and films. He has also taken many forms including a battle tank, Jet even a robotic T-REX.

Hot Shot

Hot Shot is the leader of the spy changers and he has always been allied to the Autobots and is a old friend of Prime. The spy changers are a unique group of bots as they are able to walk across any surface and camoflage themselves against the enemy. Hot Shots form in the real worl is actually the famous Porsche 959.

Ironhide

Ironhide is one of the oldest bots out there and he again was part of the spy changers that helped out the Autobots against the Decepitcons. his real life form suggests that he is a bit of an old timer as well and it is the Nissan one box cherry vanette, pretty ancient stuff.

With this in mind I am almost certain that you would need some Gap insurance with the amount of money you would be paying off for one of these robots. Can you imagine how much the insurance would be on one of these! You would certainly need bad credit car loans if you owned one of these robots and a new car lease would be necessary.
