I never had much luck constructing gingerbread houses. They were decent enough, but certainly wouldn't win any prizes. That's not the case for Caroline Eriksson. She took top prize at a gingerbread "house" competition in Norway. The professional 3D/compositing artist earned $6,500 by using 700-800 individual pieces of gingerbread to construct Optimus Prime, the version seen in Michael Bay's live-action Transformers films.

Starring in "Transformers 4" is Jack Reynor in the starring role of a race car driver. The talented and beautiful Nicola Peltz has been cast in the female lead role of Reynor's girlfriend. Mark Wahlberg has signed on to play Nicola's father Flynn Vincent. Sophia Myles will play a major role as a scientist. Peter Cullen returns as the voice of Optimus Prime, and Glenn Morshower reprises his role as General Morshower. Kelsey Grammer was recently cast as the lead villain named "Harold Attinger". Directors Guild of America DGA Award winner Michael Bay will return to direct his fourth installment of the film series from a screenplay written by Ehren Kruger.

TRANSFORMERS 4 will be directed by Michael Bay, from a script written by Ehren Kruger. The cast includes: Mark Wahlberg, Kelsey Grammar, Nicola Peltz, Stanley Tucci and Jack Reynor. Set for release on June 27th, 2014!

@TheBlackNerd 'Age of Extinction will probably hit another Billion dollar mark!'

Probably.
I'd say almost it's almost in the bag.

Then again 'Duck Dynasty', 'Jersey Shore' and 'Here Comes Honey Boo-Boo' are some of the top watched shows on TV and the stars earn over 400 million in merchandising so that's not really saying too much about the quality.

Just that people will pay to watch anything.

That is so awesome and delicious looking at the same time, ha ha!

She is really cool for creating that. And she is easy on the eyes too.

@Wulfenmarc Nailbiter wrote not being good at building gingerbread houses about himself. Caroline didn't say that.

Honest mistake.

Ah, the god of materialism hiself, Primus Optimum.
Always thinking of him/her at this time of year (I think Primes a "her", actually. She does have a creation matrix inside her. That usually qualifies one as female).
Merry Christmas.
Time to open the advent calendar, before it is midnight.
