Japan's robotics research collective Bravo Robotics unveiled a preview of its latest prototype model for a remote-controlled sports car that transforms into a bipedal robot, which will be presented during the upcoming Maker Faire in Tokyo. The 1/12 scale model is operated by a modified PS3 controller and comes equipped with a missile launcher on each arm and a wireless camera that feeds into mobile devices like iPad.

Do you often find yourself thinking, "man, I could really use a 1-ton wine rack transformer. That'd really round out the living room."

Me too, viewer, me too. Now you can make your dream a reality by buying the only wine-rack transformer in existence! Made from recycled automobile and motorcycle parts, this booze-tending behemoth is being sold on Craigslist by a guy from Phoenix, AZ. It'll set you back 7000 dollars, but really though, it's a 2000-pound Optimus Prime wine rack. Do I need to convince you any further?

So now we spare the children the joy of trying to manually transform their cars into humanoid robots? They have it so easy these days!
