Metal Transformer Statue

Metal Source has opened a facility in Peru and has erected a giant scrap metal statue in front of the business. Easily visible without trespassing. It is located just west of a closed factory on Elm, close to the Norfolk Southern tracks.

Metal Source has built several Transformers statues, each different, at its various Indiana locations. This one is Megatron.
