Toys r US used to sell them. The stock model has a wire control and is not very impressive. This one has been modded. I have about $100 in materials and lots and lots of time.
HEY dude, nice mod. Got the same plan... but unstarted. im thinking of going pneumatics air pump from a blood pressure monitor kit (LOL) or from a broken car tire inflator, then lego switches (?) and tubings (?). i think it has more power than mechanically powered arms (from servos). Cool eh!
