chrono Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 http://www.roboraptoronline.com/ RoboDog, RoboSapien, and now RoboRaptor. Finally a toy aimed at the kid in us! Quote
JB0 Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 no flame thrower=no fun 324951[/snapback] Seconded. Seriously, I find the Robosapien more interesting than the Roboraptor. Though I've been seeing the raptors in stores for some time now. Quote
Knight26 Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Seems like another overpriced lame robo-toy, I'll pass. Quote
Project Phoenix Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Let me know when it comes standard with eye lasers. Maybe then I'll pick it up. Quote

kanata67 Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 sharks with friggin laser beams... is that to much to ask for?!?!? making it breath fire would be an easy mod though... Quote
F360° Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 bahh.. it's all about Wifi, blue tooth, and USB ports. Quote
UN_MARINE Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 Meh. If I had to spend on a robot toy, it'd have to be one of those $500 mini fighting robots at least they can DO kung fu Quote
Greyryder Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 I must not be geeky enough. I go for small radio controlled tracked vehicles. Now, if I could just figure out how to fit a working pellet gun into the turret of a 1/35 scale tank.... Quote
JB0 Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 bahh.. it's all about Wifi, blue tooth, and USB ports. 325020[/snapback] What use would a laser with bluetooth be? Quote
HWR MKII Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Ill be sure to see how well that raptor stands up to my R/C tracked vehicle soon Some kid around here keeps running his in the street and i almost ran it 3 times. Next time it out its going to meet tiger tank V2.0 . The thing is floppier in real life than the commercial lets on. Quote

He needs taking down a notch. Quote
mikeszekely Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 bahh.. it's all about Wifi, blue tooth, and USB ports. 325020[/snapback] What use would a laser with bluetooth be? 325192[/snapback] The ability to wirelessly shoot someone in the ass? Personally, I think you're all too greedy. I'd be happy with a dog-sized ED-209 (from Robocop fame) that just walks around, growls at the pets, and occasionally fall down stairs and starts squealing and flailing about. Quote
chrono Posted September 2, 2005 Author Posted September 2, 2005 I'd be easy, if I was fully trained in electronics, to add a pair of 'pen' laser to it and maybe a 'real' flame breath weapon. I would add a small Ipod to it and set it up to ID specific people and play certain types of music when it 'saw' them. Or set it up to roam the office and play annoying music when people are standing around in some areas. I'd get one if it had a MechaGozilla conversion for it though!! Quote

Wesker99 Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Did anyone else notice that at least in the add it was "roaring" with sounds from the original doom? I think that's a buying point. But I have a real dog, and don't feel the need for a robot raptor. Quote
UN_MARINE Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 how about checking if it's BB proof ? anybody got an RC tank that can shoot 'em ? Quote
HWR MKII Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Tiger V1.5 is a bb shooting one Tiger 1.0 has been parted out though. The BBs wouldnt do much damage though they bounce off me at 3 feet away and i dont feel them Quote
UN_MARINE Posted September 3, 2005 Posted September 3, 2005 that's cool ! I actually have one of those 1/24 taiwan-made BB shooting Leopard A2's. I had to replace the barrel to get it to shoot better, but it's still mostly 'child-safe' I'd get a one of these robosapien things to shoot at, but they're pretty expensive over here, & for just target practice an old beat-up model is still a better & cheaper target Quote
HWR MKII Posted September 4, 2005 Posted September 4, 2005 I use my T-34 for BB testing Id use the raptor for climbing testing. My wife wants one for christmas hehe Quote
UN_MARINE Posted September 4, 2005 Posted September 4, 2005 that's great ! thanks are always fun , even more if they're rolling over an enemy toy Quote
