More than meets the eye? Robyn Lee of Required Eating posted this picture of Optimus Prime made out of cans, taken by Matt Boulton. Apparently, there’s an annual contest in Vancouver where artists make all sorts of amazing sculptures from canned food. After the event, it’s all donated to food banks. They’ve got pictures of entries from the past four years - definitely worth a look.

Craftster.org user subloke made this Transformers toque based on Baigneuse’s version, who made hers based on Flickr user twosixteen’s chart. Subloke even made the Transformers hat reversible - one side has Autobot and Decepticon icons and the other side says “more than meets the eye.”

She was even kind enough to post the pattern and instructions to the Transformers hat so anyone with the skillz can make one too!
