I think we can call this the T-.01 Terminator

Still pretty cool, only a matter of time before robots in redman suits are the newest RBSD craze...

Actually, this article is almost 3 years old, those Redman robots should hit Century's Winter Catalogue

At about 30 cm? Seems unlikely; only about a foot high. Maybe they could set them on each other and see which one wins! Still, very cool.

Not very tall. Definitely would be fun to pit them against each other....

Bah! I had Rock 'em Sock'em Robots 30 years ago.

Only a matter of time before we all have personal training robots. Six foot tall and able to work with 100 differant disciplines and mimic almost anything. While I think this may be a way's off, I expect to see some before I die. Oh, and they will probably cost a mint! In other words, not one of us will probably be able to afford one. (at least initially)

Except we'll be over run by little tiny martial arts robots and the occasional taller sword wielding ones too.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

OK, I'm better now.....
