"chicken like robot"???

The website states that it is a reasearch only project, and there are no plans to comercialise anything. Although with 1.6 Million views, on the original video made by the programmer, I'm betting that it would be mildly profitable, but due to the intergration level of advanced robotics, it'll be expensive.

[RunningSomething]

how do u know?

[Fentanyl3]

Expensive in the sense that'll nmot be something you just run out and buy like you would a loaf of bread. I know this because of the circuitry it contains, and I have a strong background in electronics. I would put it's manufacturing cost at around 40 to 70 dollars retailing at 120 to 170. all of this a rough guess of course

[Fentanyl3]

Also, those cost stated would be at production numbers in the millions of units manufactured, the cost increases exponentially when the total amount produced starts to drop

[Yuikur]

I soooo wish that they were coming soon, but we have no idea when they are coming out. Although, I mean when they are coming out in America. In Japan, I REALLY have no idea about him. And you should just make stuff for him if you want him to be personalized.

[peepeevagi]

This only means one thing. They'll be hitting shelves in no time!

[CocoJelly92]

heh, if only. they have conventions like this all the time. the robots might be sold on the market, but not to the average person. Meaning, they're generally really expensive and are aimed at specific people. though, i don't really get how these would be so expensive though...

[tupacshakur32]

they should have different skins like a red one with a mo hawk. that would be kool. maybe clothes to make it ur own. that would be nice.

[AirJam85]

"like a red one with a mo hawk" that's not random or anything. Does your special friend have a red mo hawk?

just messing with you

[StrawberryAshi]

Keepons wearing pith helmets and top hats... My heart skipped a beat. Very cute!
