Here is something you do not get to report everyday. 22 year old Danish victoria secret model Josephine Skriver is featured on the latest issue of the Italian version of the Elle fashion magazine. She posted the images of her feature on her facebook page (NOT safe for work) and I have mirrored them below. You will notice that this photo shoot has her walking in New York with none other than Optimus Prime. While most of the writing details what she is wearing, there is a story detailing how this is about a girl on a shopping spree on 5th avenue New York with her boyfriend from outer space. The story ends with the two choosing to have some fast food (I do not know which is least credible, the relationship or the model eating fast food).

Enjoy these otherworldy photos!

A supermodel and a Transformer together, yet somehow it ends up being more Wes Anderson than Michael Bay.

Yeah it's especially creepy in the black and white pictures.

If you add a bit of photoshopping, it would look like the picture for a creepypasta.

Three things:

1. Damn fine Optimus costume, great work!
2. That outfit on the cover, it looks both attractive and really comfy, I respect that.
3. I think I really hate Movie Optimus even more now.

Is the hate from jealously, design, or that he doesn't even look like that anymore?

No I just think it's because of how silly seeing Optimus Prime dating is.

No it's because he's dating a supermodel.

Plus, it actually appears these are going to be released to the public this fall/winter, however prices are unknown at this time. Check out the totally on-fleek threads below!

The Transformers have not been averse to a little haute couture, and have featured in fashion photo shoots in the past - plus, we heard from Hasbro at New York Toy Fair 2016 that they had indeed licensed some high fashion work, and we now apparently see some more results, with Moschino's line in Milan, this past weekend!

Check out below some Transformers designs rolling out on the Italian catwalk, featuring some old G1 art styles and a bit of a dig from the Vogue coverage of the show and collection from the designer.

That implied the end—or at least, the irreparable damage—of past convention. There were other nods to event horizon, like iridescent “countdown clock” motifs on blazers and overcoats for men, and full ballgown skirts for women. A graphic opening series of Transformers battling in space was also in the mix, though this bit—and another consisting of all-over studded bric-a-brac on lapels and berets, made with help from Judy Blame—were weak points in Scott’s phalanx. The best—and most piercing—pieces he showed tonight were the relatively simplest. See camouflage trousers worn with a multi-colored marabou coat. The look was suggestive, and slyly very much do ask, do tell.

This is so utterly bizarre and gaudy. I have no clue what gave him the idea to do this and how he thought it would work at all.

I like the art that was chosen for the print. I think it would be better suited for accessories instead of full pieces like jackets and dresses though.

Moschino, wow. I haven't worn that since 1996. The G1 pants are doable though. Just the pants with a pair of black suede Timberlands and one of those long form fitting t-shirts that are in style now... in either black, white or slate gray. Cost would be a factor though. I wouldn't pay more than $250 for those pants.

Random chunks of Transformers pictures poorly slapped on clothing is neither art or fashion. This smacks of just trying to ride the hype train of the new live action movie.

Italian fashion designer Moschino is at it again. They're back on some Transformers licensed products, under the "Ready to Bear FW17" merchandise. Blending bears and Optimus Prime, and if you just so happen to have some spare $120 (phone covers) or $1,050 (nightshirts), these can be found below!

What I find puzzling is the sheer lack of effort gone into the designs. They look like cheap, knockoff designs you can find at cheap card shops, tourist traps and market stalls the world over. Then, they have the audacity to charge money for it and pop the SAME design on all of the products in the range.

Why would anyone want this? All you have to do is download the image above and you're done.

The Fashion industry has been able to sell brown paper bags for obscene amounts of money by labelling it as fashionable. I don't doubt their ability to put out lazy stuff like this anymore.

In occasion of Transformers: The Last Knight, licensed jewelry company Han Cholo is launching a new G1 themed line of rings and pendants featuring three of the most recognisable characters in the franchise: Optimus Prime, Megatron and Soundwave! You can check out both more information and images of the products from the LA company below!

Today Han Cholo Drops the new Jewelry Collection for Transformers, one of the most iconic Fandoms and Toy collections in the universe. First Rolling out with 3 iconic characters from Generation 1 to go along with the release of The Last Knight, Han Cholo is definitely bringing back the nostalgia of the 80’s toys from back in the day. From having started the company back in 2003 Brandon Schoolhouse has created some of the most unique mens jewelry in the Mens Fashion World. From creating custom pieces for Actors Such as Brad Pitt, and musicians that range from Snoop Dogg, RZA, and Murs to Gwen Stefani and Lana Del Rey Han Cholo has a voice that everyone can respond to. After launching the Star Wars Collection back in 2014 Han Cholo gained the attention of companies such as Dream works and Universal Studios to create jewelry for their licenses.

After making collections of all of these pop culture staples, which was brandon dream, Han Cholo gained the license from Hasbro to make Officially Licensed Transformers Jewelry. Gearing up for the release of many exclusives at San Diego Comic con Han Cholo found it fitting to mark their release date of the Transformers jewelry collection to go along with the release of Transformers: The Dark Knight. With the new fans of the franchise excited about the movie Brandon wanted to give something to the old school fans of the 80’s Cartoon and thats just what he did. Basing the collection on Generation 1 toys, the first rollout features Optimus Prime, Megatron and Soundwave in all their glory. You can find the new Collection available at www.hancholo.com and find the rest rolling out at SDCC 2017 and throughs out the year.

Im normally not a ring guy but those look kinda cool. The soundwave chain is kinda meh but I like that Megatron ring. Are these gonna be made in silver, white gold, or platinum? Im not familiar with the maker but it sounds expensive if he did custom pieces for rappers. I might go for a ring if its silver or white gold.

Edit: I just noticed the price. I would be totally down for the ring at $300 if it was white gold. But for silver??? Are they f**king crazy??? Im thinking like $75 is all sterling silver is worth on a mass produced jewelry mold. Its not like hes hand carving each one individually. I had bought both sterling silver faction symbol pendants with chains from BBTS for 30 bucks a pop. So ill pass on this unless it goes on clearance for $100 or less...

300 is not bad for jersey price if it's real silver or gold add up all toys person has bought in month for transformers toys it's almost 200 megatron gets color eyes but none for prime

$300 are you serious? Im pretty sure those arent worth that at all even when you factor in the licensing, especially the necklace. Guess these were made for rich people and not the average collector/fan.

They feature an 84 on the side and Optimus Prime flames, an Autobot badge on the underside, and soles that glow in the dark! Unfortunately, these shoes are not mass-produced, and were custom-made for Wahlberg. Check 'em out below!
