Half-Ton "Transformer" Wine Rack Combines Art, Mechanics, Style & Fun

For  more than three decades, Hasbro’s Transformers have captivated the  hearts of children (and more recently, adults — thanks Megan Fox) around  the world. An enterprising artist in Phoenix, AZ recently combined his  fascination with the shapeshifting machines and his knack for working  with automobile parts to create a one-off wine rack, the likes of which  has never been seen before.
The  six-foot-tall, Megatron-esque statue holds up to 32 of your best  vintages in different positions — place soon-to-drink bottles upright  along his chest, and store rare finds horizontally in the automatic  “gun” barrels on his arms. Blue LED lights are wired into the sculpture,  making this easily the centerpiece of any house party or gathering.
Parts  from disparate cars were cleaned and neutralized before being assembled  into this gentle giant, which the artist is selling on Craigslist for a  cool $7,000. Not for everyone, to be sure, but if you had the dough and  the space, would you go for it?
