Robosapien Remote Control Robot
The first interactive biomorphic pet robot
For yourself or for a lucky kid on your shopping list.
$63.25
"I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that..." Well, Robosapien is no HAL 9000, but he's friendlier and safer to play with (and even more fun to take apart and tinker with.) This is THE gift to give any kiddo or science fiction buff on your shopping list this year. Unless their name is Dave, and they're in to space walking outside some pod doors.

Robosapien is a fully programmable robot you control via an ergonomically designed remote control. He can perform an amazing 67 pre-programmed functions, among them disco dancing, rapping and Kung Fu, and carry them out in any combination you choose. He can pick up small objects with his ribbed pronged grippers and fetch and carry them for you. He'll dance, high-five you, and perform karate kicks! He can even wash dishes, take out the trash and walk your dog. (ok, we're lying on that last bit)

Robosapien is fully articulated and his fluid biomechanical movements make him seem almost human. He walks at two different speeds, and can even handle 180-degree turns! When you see him automatically walk round obstacles, you'll think he's come to life. You don't need a PC to program him, or any complex set-up at all--he's ready to roll straight from the box, with all functions controlled by the remote. He can even speak French, Italian and German. (ok.. so he only grunts; it sounded like a foreign tongue to us)
