Three Transformers fans in China have taken three months to build their own robot out of a Citroen C2 car.
Sui Lulu, Zhang Yiming and Li Wei, from Nanjing city, have named the 15ft Transformer X2, reports the Jinling Evening Post.
“We are huge Transformers fans, and grew up with them on TV and in comic books. We always wanted to have our own transformer, a real one,” says graphic designer Sui Lulu.
He says they picked the Citroen C2 because it’s small: “We originally wanted to make the figure of Optimus Prime, who is transformed from a truck.
“But we calculated that the final figure would be around seven storeys high, and we couldn’t find room for it. So we went with the Citroen C2.”

トランスフォーマーが好きすぎて Citoroen C2 を改造して、トランスフォーマーを作ってしまった男達のお話。
最初はトラックから Optimus Prime を作りたかったが、巨大になりすぎるため Citoroen C2 に変更したとのこと。
ただし、予算の関係で完全変形にはいたっていないらしい。
One Russian guy got so glued to his favorite Mercedes car that he couldn’t sell it when it became already too old for him. He ordered to cut it in pieces and mount the full length part of its body to the wall of his apartment before the renovation has started so that to implement it into the new look of his flat.
