    How was this "biologically" accurate and not just as awkward as any other robot?? It looked like the robot had Heelys on, lol.

    It will use more material but I have been saying this for ages... Robots will balance better for bipedal movement if your initial prototypes are built off the FEMALE pelvis! The woman has a lower center of balance!
