Like Arnie in T2, Robosapien awoke this morning with the horrible feeling that a newer, more formidable robot was roaming the streets. He’s right – please, shake the plastic hand of Robonova, the all new acro-bot.
The video footage of Robonova on iwantoneofthose's site is mighty impressive, showing him playing to the camera with press-ups, running and, his signature move, a super-smooth cartwheel. You can control his actions via remote control or create custom moves by manipulating him yourself and clicking a button.

He comes pre-assembled out of the box, and is made from gold anodized metal brackets to make him tough enough to resist the advances of my 8 month old Labrador. :swoon:
The down side is that your hunk of dancing nuts and bolts comes at something of a premium – £720 to be precise. That’s a hefty investment considering he can’t even make a cup of tea but give me a few more of those cartwheels and I’ll be reaching for my credit card.

I bet I could beat him in a WD40 drinking competition! :P
