I've seen this around, yet it's not getting much attention. Surprising. :/ It looks awesome though, if it's real.^_^ Oh great, now I have this song stuck in my head. XD And just a guess, but notice that the entire cieling above the table of which they're standing on is cut out, and I think I even see a person up there, perhaps with sticks and strings? :P But right now it's just fun. *Dances*

[Keiichi]

Yeah, I see this around a lot. It's pretty cool. :) I want to see more of it!
Thanks for the Sony link, btw.

Little kids would be all over it!!!

I saw it on Kouhaku also. Too bad QLIO's performance wasn't longer. :p

[Matthew C. Perry]

Saw 'em on the Kohaku show... those things are amazing.

[cacawate]

So, I'm guessing it learned Japanese faster than me... :bawling:

[Hachiko]

Robotic Rituals...defined. :cool: :bluush:

[Johnathan]

Eh, I wasn't THAT amazed... That probably cost a lot more than it should have.

C'mon, Sony... dancing? You know better than that... make 'em fight! MAKE 'EM FIGHT!!

[Hachiko]

That has already been done, my friend... (see Battlebots (http://www.battlebots.com/) )

[howabe]

lol that program's just a rip off of 'Robot Wars' :p

[Hachiko]

Point well taken. In the words of the Barenaked Ladies,

"It's all been done,
it's all been done,
it's all been done before..."
:sing:

[Eternal Wind]

super power!:D:D:D

[cacawate]

The bare-naked who?! ^_-

They are a male band from Toronto, for everyone not in the know of English-Canadian rock music. Good song, too. :-)

[Nuendo]

Those things are darkside, we could use them in our DJ sets for sure.

Does anyone know how much they are and when they are goin to come out?

[Uncle Frank]

Bought this back to show a new member!!

You haven't even mentioned what they will be used for;
-> Work conditions that are harsh (near a blast furnace)
-> Retrieval of something, which is dangerous, like dangerous animals
-> Battle warriors, remotely controlled
