We've reported about fan made Transformers sculptures before, many, many times and most of them come from China. They are also mostly based of Optimus Prime, but not this newest one, because this one is just as the title says based of Megatron!
More specifically Megatron's alt-mode from Revenge of the Fallen, OK so it's not full sized but "holy baby Primus" is all we can think of when we see the following:

If China becomes our enemies, and they actually made these operational, they could rule the world. :shock:

Not being racist, trying to be funny, so don't harp about this either.

This.

I'll bet mileage in that thing would suck, but I doubt you'd have any traffic issues. I would have so much fun driving that...especially since my brother was EOD trained and is a licensed pyrotechnician... :twisted:

Wow, the Chinese will KO anything...

Seriously though that is quite impressive. I wonder if it actually works...

Holy shit! That thing is gnarly! That tread pattern is extremely aggro. Love it.

I would never have thought i'd think a Megatron tank mode would be cool.

I stand corrected.

Most likely not, but it would be unfrigginbelievable if it did. :lol:

Those wacky Chinese at it again.... Wow, who or what group/company/organization has the money and man power to do this? Looks pretty cool.

That's a really BA looking tank. I wonder if the treads can move. I highly doubt it, but it would be really cool if they could.

Those aren't treads, they are people grinders.
Man and Japan has that life size Gundam.
What does the white west have?
Brazil has a giant jezus statue, guess US has lady Liberty :p

Slick looking tank, I would not mind having that thing in lunch hour traffic, and now for something completely different, Marissa Fairborn will be in DOTM.

I'm sorry, but I can't just picture Megatron with a Stalin 'Stache. Can't see him with Mao Zedong hair either. 8-}

Ok, my real life movie "kitbash" may not have people grinding tank treads or awesome cannon, but it runs the quarter in 11.6 sec and does SICK burnouts!
