Transforme­rs fans, “your dream toy has arrived.” Robosen Robotics, a California firm, has created an Auto-Converting Optimus Prime that can transform before your eyes from a semi-truck into a 19-inch-tall bipedal robot. The app- and voice-controlled machine contains 60 microchips and 27 servo motors that allow it to walk, dance, throw punches, and even simulate breathing. Voiced by Peter Cullen—the voice of Optimus Prime, leader of the Autobots, since the 1980s—the robot can rattle off catchphras­es and respond to prompts. “We now live in a golden era of glorious toys that kids could never afford.” $750, hasbropuls­e.com Source: The Verge
