By now, there are likely very few people on this planet who remain completely unaware of what a Transformer is, especially now that Transformers: Age of Extinction is making money around the world. And when it comes to Transformers, the description that usually comes to mind is something along the lines of "giant robots that turn into cars" (or trucks, jets, tanks, and of course, dinosaurs). Just look at the shot above; as you can see, Galvatron there is as tall as a house, if not taller. He's a whopper, alright, and he's not unique in this regard. Optimus Prime is probably about the same height, seeing as they both turn into big trailer-hauling trucks. And the Dinobots are even bigger still! But, unless you're a hardcore fan of the series (watching Michael Bay's films on a permanent loop doesn't count in this instance), what you might not know is that Transformers can get bigger still - and that's without combining to form bigger robots, such as Devastator. Some are so big that you could live quite comfortably inside of them. You could even put up your family and friends, though you'd be sacrificing some bragging rights in the process. Then again, if you're living in a giant transforming robot, you're going to at least break even. Incidentally, we realise that the Dinobots are probably big enough to live in, but it's not really recommended. You couldn't live inside a Dinobot's belly, but plenty have died there.
