check this out
Toshiba has created a particularly unusual mobile phone for Japanese network, Softbank - which seems to be inspired by the Transformers brand. The 3G phone is a conventional model in normal use - but has arms and legs which can be poised to turn the phone into a "robot". It even comes with built-in wallpaper backgrounds to simulate robot faces.

Transformer Mode
Conventional Mode
When closed and in normal phone mode, the handset has dimensions of 50x102x16mm, although we are not sure what the dimensions are when it is in Transformer mode. It comes with a QVGA screen, 3.2 megapixel camera and is expected to be launched in late April as the SoftBank 815T PB.
There is also a build in semi-intelligent avatar which talks to the owners and learns over time how to respond to them.
No price was announced.

DIVEBOMB
This DECEPTICON jet uses deco inspired by the Russian Air Force SU-37 Flanker- F prototype. The design team went with this deco to provide something that had realistic cues but still stood out. The “Decepticon Air Force” marking is the same as that used on the Decepticon Movie Starscream G1 redeco, and is roughly based on the real-world Philippines Air Force roundel.
DIVEBOMB tries his hardest to make friends with the other DECEPTICONS, but they go out of their way to avoid him. Everyone recognizes his skill an aerial fighter, his intelligence as a tactician, and his positive attitude towards the goal of total DECEPTICON domination. Unfortunately, his reactor containment is so bad that other robots can't stand to be near him. Wherever he goes, he leaves a trail of toxic fumes, and he emits so much radiation that it short-circuits the sensor systems of those nearby.
JOLT
The design team originally intended this character to have a darker purple deco--similar to that of the old Micromaster Roadhugger. When a name change was required this mold from Cybertron worked even better as a reimagining of the Generation 2 DECEPTICON Laser Rod Jolt.
Shortly after the final battle for the AllSpark, JOLT sought out BARRICADE for advice. Brought to life by the energy bursts thrown off the Allspark during the fight, he wanted to learn the finer points of lying and trashing stuff. After BARRICADE was done beating on him, DECEPTICON FRENZY made fun of him for a while, and slashed his tires. That was his first and only lesson, and he took it to heart
