Holy Crap, It's a 7-Foot Optimus Prime Balloon Sculpture

[CrazyGirl17]

Woah, that right there is pretty awesome(ly nerdy - but in a good way).

 

[Jared]

Thats quite impressive! Quite a skill!

hehe, go to parties making that and you would be very poplular XD

 

[SnootyEnglishman]

Damn that takes some massive free time and dedication to the craft. I salute this man..now if he made Unicron or Galvatron i'd be even more amazed.

 

[Riobux]

Makes for a good chat-up line in a bar.

Larry King's Love Child gets the Geek Tip of the Hat for that unsettling act of fandom!

 

[Cody211282]

That is epic, but the real question is can it transform?

 

[chris11246]

Yeah. That's great.

Now, let's see it transform into a balloon vehicle.

Thats the first thing I thought too. I would love to see one that could transform.

 

[neosman8]

thats pretty awesome shame if that got popped. it would be cool if it transformed too but from the look of it, it would break trying.

 

[AwesomeExpress]

Yeah. That's great.

Now, let's see it transform into a balloon vehicle.

That would be pretty sweet! I think it's impressive that it stands on its own, but if he was going to be that ambitious, he should have made it able to transform into the semi.

Also, I've gotta say: It's not a SCULPTURE, it's a STATUE. And yes, I know "sculpture" is part to the definition of "statue" but it's totally not the same thing! Rock you sculpt, balloons you blow up. If you try to sculpt a balloon, it's going to pop or be uninflatable.

Weird... I just started watching Armada again today after roughly 6 years, and then this thread pops up. Heh. ^^

 

[qbanknight]

that is so fucking metal

 

[ucciolord1]

This man may very well be the last chance at humanity's redemption. I applaud his magnificence.

 

[Cid Silverwing]

Holy... Shit...

Words fail me...

 

[dex-dex]

wow

now any clown who says they can't make me the item i requested i shall yell BLASPHEME!!

 

[The Great JT]

That's awesome. Great work by the artist.

 

[MrBrightside919]

Cool, but...

It's still no where near as cool as the lifesize Gundam and Gigantor that were up in japan...

 

[MiracleOfSound]

It's cooler than a Michael Bay transformer.

Like, if the actual balloon Prime was in the movies, it'd still be cooler.

Hehe that made me chuckle.

G1 is the best!
