Your dreams of a car that turn into an enormous alien robot (don’t deny it) have taken a step closer to become a reality. <br /> <br />Brave Robotics, Asratec Corp and original Transformer designers Tomy have collaborated to build a small-scale, fully-functioning Transformer that starts as a car and becomes a walking, humanoid robot. <br /> <br />And, despite its small size, its Japanese creators insist it is not a toy – and bigger, better models are in the pipeline. <br />‘The goal of Project J-deite is the building of a giant transformable robot 5m long. It is the same size as a car. An object of the same size transforms, walks, and runs,’ said Kenji Ishida of Brave Robotics. <br /> <br />The J-deite Quarter, which is one-fourth of its planned size, is roughly 5ft tall in its robot form and weighs 77lbs. <br /> <br />In its car form, it can drive at up to 6mph, though the developers have not yet made clear if the finished, full-size product will be able to accommodate a driver. <br /> <br />They’re also not planning to make it commercially available. But there’s always Kickstarter…
