Oct 2 2009eBay: Amazing Optimus Prime Action Figure
Up on the auction block is a $45 Hasbro Optimus Prime action figure that's been meticulously modded and painted to match the leader of the Autobot's appearance in Revenge of the Fallen. The level of detail is amazing. Unfortunately, so is the price: bidding is currently at $730 with just under six hours remaining. So yeah, bid away if you want to blow a cool grand this afternoon. But if you want to blow up a cool air mattress, let me now -- I have guests coming to stay the weekend. Now transform and blow till you pass out!
Hit the jump for several more shots, including what the toy looked like before modification.

Can you do us a favor?
Mix up some bleach and ammonia, then use it to clean your unventilated bathroom.

...says Tim, his lips streched wide around his cellmates thick kok, mascara, blood and semen streaming down his brused face. (sniff) "I'm first. (sob) FIRST!" And no one can take that away from you, sweetheart.
Re the figure: Nice work. That is some excellent detail. He definitely earned that money.

Well, it's nice that they found a way for boys to play with dolls.

prime is actually a cybernetic bio-automoton and niether doll nor action figure... using govenmental shrink ray's on him was a bad idea because as soon as he figures out how to get back to normal, we are all skrewed. HUMAN ENSLAVEMENT!!!

I was a big fan of the Transmorphers movie myself. I can't find the toys for it though.

what the hell is this? $700 for a plastic toy that just sits there? i was at my local toys r us this morning at 5am standing outside in the cold to get my little girls some battery powered hamsters. these are the hottest thing going this season. for $700 i could buy about 60 of these hamsters and let them overrun the world.

being a hardcore optimus fan, i have to say, scrolling the main geekologie page and landing on that first picture made me come a few times. and by come, i of course mean come back to look at the picture again. i just cant get enough of it. but a grand and a half seems a little ridiculous. for that much money he should transform automatically

as cool as this is, this still doesn't make the movie any less of a heap of crap.
