This is something I thought of the other day, and I'm interested to see what the general reaction is to it. In the event of my untimely passing, I thought it would be cool to have a person-sized G1 Optimus Prime statue made (non-transforming), but with a highly detailed and openable chest, inside which can be stored a Creation Matrix replica. This Creation Matrix would be the receptacle for my ashes.

Seems a far nicer thought to me than being stuck in a random urn on a mantlepiece somewhere.

Presumably these have to be Transformers related?

I think I'd have an open-casket ceremony where my loved ones can attempt to reconfigure my body into various amusing shapes.

Yeah, Transformers-related. Just wondering what people thought of the idea of a creation matrix urn in an optimus Prime housing. Would be a weird thing to have in your will, but it appeals to me.

I think it sounds pretty corny.

Unlike Scatterlung's idea. That sounds anything -but- corny.

I wanna have "I still function!" written on my tombstone.

Damn. That seams really uh...wierd.

Wanna bet?

really, I like the idea of a Matrix-shaped urn.

I'd like a statue of Dead End slumped over my place of final resting, with a marker that reads:

"See? It happens to all of us eventually."

I wanna be burried in a crypt the size of Manhatten and then have my coffin rigged so it opens dropping my rotting corpse on silly little boys who wander away from the group.

I'm picturing Dead End in the Thinker pose, made famous by Rodin. Or Rodan, flying Toho monster. Either way, Dead End would look pretty awesome.
I think this is actually a pretty cool topic.
