Cardboard becomes a helicopter in Localish's Transformers costume clip

A wearable Decepticon creation tops fifteen new uploads, alongside capybara treats and a guinea pig dressed as a doctor.

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

Incredible DIY Transformers costume!

Localish's robot takes only a few seconds to become a helicopter. A child crouches toward the floor, folding a black cardboard costume around them until rotor blades, a front light and a Decepticon emblem complete the transformation. The clip credits Ting Ahmor via Storyful, bringing a homemade engineering moment into ABC's locally minded collection.

"Incredible DIY Transformers costume!" was the week's most-watched new upload, reaching roughly 18,000 views. It's also drawing the most daily views among the channel's active videos, though the capybaras are providing some gentle company. "Capybaras enjoy Halloween treats" has the next strongest daily momentum, followed by a masked doorstep visit in "Trick-or-treater tries to spook neighbor".

Across fifteen uploads, the seasonal dress code stretched well beyond robots: a guinea pig wore a doctor's costume, while paddling witches made use of gloomy weather. That mix of animals, neighborhood encounters and small spectacles gives Localish a different rhythm from the straight-news broadcasters around it.

The channel added about 419,000 views over the week, but its subscriber count slipped. Daily viewing is currently more than twice its usual level. Among nearby broadcasters, BBC World Service and CBC News: The National gained subscribers this week, while ITV News's daily viewing is close to normal. For Localish, the most active draw is a cardboard creation that doesn't just look like a Transformer: it actually folds.
