that thing looks like Optimus Prime in the movie transformers revenge of the fallen.

That’s nice and all, but does it turn into a truck?

that thing looks like a piece of crap. my ravage dog chasing his tail could build one. a trans, i mean robot from outer space would kick it’s ass and it would fall apart. REMEMBER WHAT BE BE UMBLE SAID, IF THE ENERGY FROM MISSION CITY MADE THIS ROBOTS AND THEY ARE MADE FROM HUMANS, THEY ARE WEAK AND CAN BE BLOW UP.!!!

I’d be more interested in seeing something smaller and human-sized. I’m aware that the US Army had something in the works, a piece of powered armor that you strapped on and used to assist in the lifting & carrying of heavy loads; with no additional stresses placed on the human ‘pilot’…

Although I must admit, Mr. Owens’ project is definitely a sight to behold. That must have been quite the project! Amazing piece of work!

I could use one of those. Seriously. It’d be nice to have some extra strength around.

I’m surprised that the Army hasn’t tried to purchase this. The miltary applications for such technology would be staggering.
