Yeah, this is one of the coolest things to come out of japan all year.

If someone has more videos, please post them, i'd love to see more of this! :cheers:

Woah, I want a few of them!

Bet they are quite expensive though

I remember seeing robots just like that on TV. They are impressive and cool. Robots are definitely becoming the future for Japan. First the Sony AIBO then the Dancing Robot, then the Conductor Robot and now minature fighting robots. Cannot wait to see what will be next. I still think the Dancing Robot is cooler. Heres an even cooler video of the Dancing Robot's capabilities. Very cool info on it

*pokes avatar* See Lennie? Why can't you beat things up like that?!

Japanese have robots... and therefore I'm jealous. All I want is a 8.5 foot tank on elephantine legs, stomping around and doing my bidding.

*steeples fingers and giggles madly at scuffling robots*

Wouldnt it be cool if a robot could actually dance like that!

The fluid movement of the Qrio when he throws the ball creps me out no end.
