I'm telling you...Star Wars is just around the corner, although it's going to take some work, 'cuz you can tell the body is kinda slipping a bit. It's going to take a bit more than a forklift. Heh. But it's neat that they're thinking about these kinds of applications.

ED-209 is still one of my favorite movie robots. :mouth_water:

Enforcement Droid 209 in "Robocop" for those of you who aren't aware. ;)

Probably one of the more gruesome scenes from an 80s movie. :toofless:

The video doesn't show the 635 other times that the robot crushed the doll in half. Oops. :sailor: (yeah I know it's Popeye but it looked like some kind of crack smokin' nurse so I thought it was close enough)
