Hey guys, I was just browsing the inet and found this. Umm...no real comment from me on this one. Looks vicious!

For the lazy ones, it's a real walking piloted robot. Japanese ppl are the coolest and always come up with some bizarre toys! :) Well, check it out and post teh comments.

And another bot from our very own US army! Very cool and armed with some badass 40mm nades and a M249 machine gun for some heavy action. I'm sure army can't wait to dispatch this sucker to Iraq. Check out the vids and pics here:

Looks awesome though. :)

The Army one looks extremely deadly, I don't expect they sell those to civilians though.

Yeah, the Army one is cool. Too bad the Marines won't ever get one: they can actually survive in the front lines. :lol:

Slash dot had an article on the Japanese one a while back. Does anyone else think that the Japanese intend to become the super power by making these ultra cool robots that we will one day be dependant upon?
