Sdf-1 Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 (edited) I posted this already in the transforming robot thread, but since I couldn't find this elsewhere, here's it's own topic... It was a while ago when I found this, if I remember it can be customized anyway you want to. Well, check out the links. I'm too lazy to check them now again Robofie http://www.volks.co.jp/jp/robofie/products/products.html For some reason the Volks page videos don't work anymore(?), but there are two in that first link.

wolfx Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 That robo is awesome. If it could transform, it would rock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sdf-1 Posted February 10, 2006 Author Share Posted February 10, 2006 Yeah, but at least it's for sale. Heck, if it wasn't that much I would've ordered one already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HWR MKII Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 Until run over by my brigade of RC tanks. If they were bigger id be really interested in one but the size they are at now doesnt really do anything. Now if it were 2 feet tall id customise one into a Shinden or Raiden from Gasaraki.

A lot seems to be going on with the robot developement. And oh man Asimo is wonderful!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1/1 LowViz Lurker Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 They kinda look like the Elite from Halo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sdf-1 Posted February 10, 2006 Author Share Posted February 10, 2006 I was expecting it to be fully autonomous not RC. It would be cool to see a Raiden/Sinden armor Votoms would also be nice. 368853[/snapback] At least there are downloadable new features (or something like that if I've understood correct), and again, If my memory serves me well, the armor parts come as like resin kit pieces you can paint however you wish, and I think they said somewhere you can buy different looking parts for it as you wish to build up your own version (and those who have skill scratchbuild surely), it's basically the same idea robotized as the Volks dolls that girls (I hope ) make personalized. Now they just know how to rip-off the son's money too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Sorry for derailing there...whoops!) 368726[/snapback] Never eat at restaurants where you order from a vending machine like that. The food sucks hard. I found out the hard way. That's a bit too much to spend on a little remote controlled robot. At least it's too rich for my blood! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
