Transsformers: The Phillipines
Posted: Fri May 09, 2008 2:16 pmTransformers fandom keeps bringing more and more creativity and imagination to the world with each day that passes. Today, we get a look at what TF fans in the Phillipines think Transformers would look like had the Autobots decided to crash land there instead. With designs based off of the summer hit, these Transformers have a new twist: they're solely based off of vehicles found in the Phillipines.
A couple of the bio's for Optibus Prime and Megatren are as follows:
MEGATREN - Mega is a prefix meaning large or huge; Tren when translated into English means Train, so Megatren stands for Big Trains (i.e. MRT and LRT). This is one of the most popular transportation vehicles Filipinos use, because it’s fast and easily accessible to almost all of the key cities in Manila.
OPTIBUS PRIME - While the buses in Hong Kong are made of two stories, here in the Philippines it’s only one. This is widely used by many, especially when commuting to provinces accessible by land.
