Kids Are WAYYY Luckier Nowadays Than We Were
Especially if their parents can afford the most awesome $189.99 toy EVER MADE.
Disney is marketing an "Ultimate Wall-E Robot Toy" that is the closest thing to having an actual damn cute robot as we'll ever see.
According to MakerFaire.com: "Designed and developed through a close collaboration between Disney, Pixar animators and Thinkway, the Ultimate WALL·E features 10 motors, giving it a high level of movement and animation. The remote control makes it easy for kids to program WALL·E's movements. An innovative touch programming system lets kids direct WALL·E simply by making patterns on the remote's touch pad. With voice activation and a follow-me mode, WALL·E can follow the sound of a human voice and detect someone entering a room. He also has several emotional states and an easy system for programming thousands of combinations of movements with the remote. Numerous sensors allow him to detect and respond to his environment, including infrared sensors that allow him to detect obstacles and steer around them, sonic ears that detect sound direction, and touch sensors. The Ultimate WALL·E is also MP3 compatible and features built-in speakers. USB cables and rechargeable batteries are included. The Ultimate WALL·E will debut this fall at ToysRUs and www.disneyshopping.com; SRP $189.99."
Personally, I want to buy this thing and mess with my dog.
By the way people, this is how Terminator starts... and IT'S ADORABLE!!!!!
