Optimus Prime in his Six Foot Glory
Have you ever felt that your life was missing something? Maybe you tried religion, yoga, or even drugs and found it all a waste of time? Well have you ever considered a six foot tall Optimus Prime as a solution to your problems?
Yes, that’s right you can own your own six foot tall Optimus Prime statue for the low, low price of $4,000. He comes complete with his signature gun, but he sadly can’t be transformed or destroy your enemies. This gigantic Optimus is made my a company named 86 Hero, who I can find nothing about. However, I do have some details about the statue from BigBadToyStore’s website:
The statue weighs around 175 pounds (80kg), stands over 6.5 feet tall (2 Meters), and is limited to only 200 pieces worldwide.
Action-HQ has a few more pictures of him and what looks to be a little bit better price coming in at $2,599.95. Either way, this is a must have if your a rich, mentally unstable Transformers fan.
My opinion? I’d pass this nerd fantasy up and spend the extra couple of grand on a Realdoll (Link Not Safe for Work! Unless you work at a really cool place).
Hey, at least she’s poseable and I wouldn’t feel half as bad “getting to know” it. Plus, I could always just buy the Optimus Prime Voice Changer Helmet and pop it on her if I wanted to “role play”.* I like to get the most for my money.

Realdolls! It’s been a long time since I saw me some Realdolls. Those things are great! You can even pick out the size labia you want your ‘doll’ to have. Good ‘toy’! … That brings up an interesting thought: Are there any collectable sex toys out there?… Hmmm

I don’t think so quincy, but if you’re interested in starting a collection I saw a used Realdoll on ebay yesterday. Yes, used.

That Optimus Prime statue is almost mind-bendingly craptacular. You could spend the same money and commission an artist to make a Prime statue that would be infinitely better than that thing. Bad proportions, bad paint job, bad pose, bad price. Yeccchhh.

I’d get a used Realdoll before I got that Prime statue, however.

Crap, and I had just earmarked $4,000 in savings for a life-saving operation. Oh well. 6-foot Optimus Prime only comes along once in a lifetime…

A used Realdoll!?… You know, if the price is right I might just be into that. …Yup=, I’ll be creating a new ebay search tonight.
