It's not official, but it's still cool. Since it's Lego, you can improve it with your own pieces if you want.

Great idea! Considering that the only official Transformer "lego" has been:
- http://tformers.com/article.php?sid=8083 (great but WHERE IS HIS FACE?)
- (more lego bots including a movie accurate non transforming prime here: http://www.brothers-brick.com/category/anime/ )

I'm totally awed by this thing -- I downloaded the lxf file and watched the entire (well, almost) construction process. Certainly more involved than my most extensive projects! I'd totally go for it if not for the price -- for $50, I could buy the G1 Op reissue. Not as big, but hey...
You can also change the color (most of) the pieces, so for fun I'm making a Nemesis Prime of sorts out of the model. :)
