Re: GIANT ROBOT BUG

Too bad it doesn't actually walk, that would have been great.

I bow before our future robot bug masters.

Oh my god... the first real metal gear. Someone call for Snake to take down Metal Gear Kabutom. The fate of the free world depends on it.

This thing is super awesome!

Might not have "working" legs, but at least it moves
it's legs while rolling around.

That's good enough for me!

Re: GIANT ROBOT BUG

it's moved by it's legs. it's just supported by wheels rather than trying to keep it's body suspended or dragging along the ground.

Re: GIANT ROBOT BUG

I was just sitting here thinking "why hasn't Japan made a GIANT ROBOT BUG?"

Re: GIANT ROBOT BUG

I hope this spurs a tremendous boom in robotics over there.

I want Patlabors in my life time.

Re: GIANT ROBOT BUG

Put a giant hydrallic pincher on he front, and throw a couple flame throwers on the head. Oooooooohhh baby.

Re: GIANT ROBOT BUG

I would settle with nothing less than a pincher that could pierce a battle tank. *drool*
