This device seems to contradict my years of engineering training...
Oh, wait - I have no engineering training...
Seems like I remember there being some problem about building a walking machine
this big that can carry a power supply capable of powering the walking machine.
Anyone notice how the back looks like a Lego Racer slope? And the front looks
like the Slave I cockpit... Too bad it's so ugly. I don't like my mecha to
be grounded in reality.
I wonder how fast this thing walks (hopefully faster than three miles/hour).
Can they stick big ant mandibles on it? Could be useful in consruction, maybe.
It's hard to imagine areas where legs would be superior to treads or wheels.
Cool, though. I'm still waiting for my power armor and my Honda robot servant
(free with purchase of any 2005 Honda car or SUV).
Later, Chris
