Japanese hobby researchers at Brave Robotics have developed a functioning, entirely 3D-printed robot inspired by Transformers.
The remotely controlled bot can turn into a car and vice versa in just a few instants and has a slew of impressive features, including Wi-Fi camera, headlights and it can even shoot little darts. The "Transform robot" is the result of 10 years of work and several iterations. The robot went from a rudimentary pair of legs that barely moved to this impressive version, which looks like it could have been featured in a Transformers movie.

The latest version, the 7.2, is entirely 3D-printed by a Brave Robotics printer, is able to walk on it's own and, when folded into a car, includes two seats and has steering wheels. Obviously, it can be wirelessly controlled.
If you want it, you can order one on Brave Robotics' website for $25,000. To learn more about this amazing robot, check out the video above.
