Optimus Prime vs. Cthulhu? I think my brain just exploded from the massive nerdgasm I just had.

This kind of fanboy pandering, 'pop culture thing 1' + 'pop culture thing 2' is usually best reserved for 1 day only $10 hipster t-shirt websites. Still, that is some exquisite artwork.

Perhaps I'm gong to be just enough of a sucker to fall for it this time.
Sure is silly, though.

Looks promising to me

I think i'll pick one of these up. It's about time we see some more TF's like the Seacons. I was super stoked to see the Monsterbots in the IDW Dinobots miniseries.

Makes a guy like my happy to be a TF fan when i see some of the more "unique" TF's get some love.
