Every damn company under the sun makes a battery pack to charge up your phone, tablet, smartwatch, or whatever you need juiced up. But nobody's battery pack is as awesome as toy maker Hasbro's.

Hasbro's Transformers battery pack f*cking transforms into Autobots leader Optimus Prime. How about them apples, Mophie?

First revealed by io9, the ordinary-looking $50 battery pack's got huge 6,500 mAh capacity, which is enough to charge an iPhone 7 three times.

But that's not even the best part. Besides having the Autobots logo emblazoned on the front, you can also connect the flat (yes!) USB cable to Optimus' sword to light it up. For the other arm, there's a shield, but that doesn't light up.

The only thing that would have made this thing even better is if the battery pack was his vehicle form's fire truck or a semi truck. But we'll take what we can get.

You can see more photos of the special Optimus battery pack on io9's website. The transforming battery pack will be sold at Hasbro's own Hascon convention in Providence, Rhode Island, on Sept. 8 and also online. But you'll want to get one quick because there will only be a limited supply.

Is this the best goddamn battery pack ever created? It's the G.O.A.T.
