Some Turkish Engineers Made Real-Life Transformers and Now We're All Going to Die

As children, we always dreamed that our favourite movie characters would come to life. Now that we're adults, though, it's all happening and we're terrified as shit. Following news that scientists might be able to one day create a T-1000 from the Terminator movies, we've now learned that some Turkish engineers have created a real-life Transformer.

A company called Letrons has created a BMW car that can slowly but surely transform from a drivable vehicle into a tall, proud robotic dude. This is the stuff of Michael Bay's fantasies come to life.

Fortunately, the robotic car moves fairly slow at this point, so if it ever decides it wants to enslave the human race we'll have some time to fend it off. 

Watch the BMW convert into a robot below. A much less realistic batch of robo-cars will cruise into cinemas next summer with the release of Transformers: The Last Knight
