Hello all,
During the first release show of the Vision Command I had a hands on
experience with the dinos. They are incredible. Only one of the use
the vision command. It moves back and forth in order to attack dinos
passing by. The other dinos are actually more impressive. Especially
the one that shifts the RCX from side to side in coordination with
the tail in order to keep the balance.
The robots are owned by Lego.
They are created by Jon Gelting, that works as a freelancer for Lego.
I have enclosed a picture of Jon with his robots.
Regards
Mikkel
