Two farmers, a father and son team, based in China, have been taking scrap metal pieces and creating statues of movieverse Bumblebee, Jetfire and Optimus Prime, among others. Scrap metal has always been big business, for example, cast iron tubs are made from scrap and they go for a pretty penny, but this takes the cake. Farmers Yu Lingyun and Yu Zhilin made around $160,000.00 for their endeavors and they show no signs of stopping now.
Their replicas (and any replicas, for that matter) are a hot item in China right now due to the success of Age Of Extinction, which was
2014's biggest movie and one of China's biggest in history. With fans that rabid, it's no surprise that custom works such as these would do big business.
