G1 Optimus, 1 Meter Speaker Tower w/ USB Head

Interesting but it's a product that answers a question few of us have asked. With all the great stuff being released this year, a year where lots of folks are cutting back, this kind of thing really doesn't have much of an audience IMO.

Only us Poor people are suffering. The stupidly rich are still throwing money around like its going to be there forever.

So, if you have any rich friends, tell them they need it because Paris and Shia have them. It's Recession chic, Reagenomics kitsch, Totally exclusive...

i have one question.

why isn't it soundwave(or blaster)?

Cool idea but how does it sound. If the speaker is good then i may pick it up. And it itll work with my PSP. And why the hell havent we seen thus before? For years ive been saying that there should be some thing like this but in a Soundwave mold and bigger. My originle idea was have either Blaster or Soundwave and replace the chest with TV. In blasters case the speakers would be in the legs and on Soundwave in the shoulders. Also SW would have the buttons removable so you could add a PS3 or Cable box. Oh yeah patent pending.

Now you're starting to see what I was planning a few years back. The chest panel for Prime would open (although you could look through the clear "windshields" when closed)but it was primarily to have 2 small adjustable shelves for diplaying figures but I was going to take the speakers out of my 2 Pioneer towers and have Primes legs be the new, narrower speaker boxes. I suppose the adjustable shelves could have been removed and a smaller TV set in place. Primes grill would have split down the middle to swing with the "windshields" since they would have helped support the weight of the glass. A TV would have worked fine in the chest/body area. Nice idea. Now that I conjure up the old designs in my head, Soundwave would actually be far easier to build for TV/Stereo/Game System configuration.
Had I mentioned before that I was/am a cabinet finisher/builder by trade?

Thats it! I was wondering what to do with the extra 400 dollars I had laying around! I am glad someone came up with this idea.

Read this post as if it were dripping with sarcasm.

Wait, so you can order just his head with the speakers for $30. Or you could splurge like crazy and buy your decapitated Prime speaker head a body for an extra $400?

Why wouldn't you just get a iPod Convoy dock? At least that comes with a trailer and can transform

I'd find it amusing to see that standing here with "my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard" playing from Prime.

Here's a surprise-BBTS.com is now also listing an Ultra Magnus version of this on their site.

Looking at those pictures again, does anyone else think that it looks like a blown up, less articulated version of the 3 inch Heroes of Cybertron mini-statues? It almost looks like somebody Photshopped a picture of one and added a coupple of paint apps. that would have otherwise been harder to do during production of the 3 in. version.
I could have built my own with greater detail and functionality for less money if I still had access to the necessary tools. Would have been a whole lot heavier is the only downside.
