    Boring. I thought it was going to be an actual statue, not a brick.

    LOL! Only a Transformers fan would look at a giant Autobot base carved out of ice with a huge Optimus head on it and say "boring".

    I had the same reaction.

    But dude. It's made of ice and snow. With the music blasting at full power, the guys at the bottom starts to think "avalanche"

    You must be referring to yourself as the troll, because I am honestly not impressed by it. Sorry if that bugs you, too bad so sad.

    I really thought it was supposed to be a freestanding Optimus statue from the initial reports, not a big brick. Anybody could make this given the time and manpower.

    They should let Michal Bay blow it up when they're ready to take it down.

    Serious man? Where is the brick? I look at it and I see a freaking massive fortress with intricate details and a giant Optimus head!

    What the are you looking at to see a brick? Honestly I can't see it... I'd like to see you carve something out of ice that would look better than this in your back yard if you really think 'anybody' can do it.

    As for a freestanding Optimus, it would have been nice but we are talking about ice/snow here not cement.

    Kind of a random design between Optimus' robot mode, his vehicle mode, and an Autobot base, but it does look quite cool.

    So dont get me wrong, im not mad or trying to force my opinion at all, but i have a question... You seriously dont find this cool or impressive... at all? Cuz I think its pretty freakin awesome! Also im pretty sure givin the time and manpower it would still be quite a challange to pull off. There's some nice detail there, especially in the head. Anyway, not trollin' you, just honestly curious.

    Looks damned impressive, especially if there's any 'inside' to it. Count me in with those a bit disappointed, expecting a figural statue from the early reports, however.
