Now a truck, now a general

"Autobots, transform, and rollout."

Visitors to the China Central Academy of Fine Arts (CAFA) may well be tempted to mouth this famous line from the movie Transformers.

For, just as the movie's Optimus Prime is turned into a Peterbilt truck and Bumblebee into a Camaro, a China-made Jiefang CA10 truck stands transformed into Guan Yu, a general of Eastern Han Dynasty (AD 25-220) period, a giant Green Dragon Crescent Blade in hand, in the academy's grounds.
