YOU SIR, MUST BE RICH(not rich, but the money rich).

can't wait to see what you do. although, I think this is a bit of a rip off. it appears to use standard servos. all it has that a bipied doesn't is glossy plastic covering.

#2  

Yes its glossy plastic,got so many robots to build,don't know witch one to start on. But since i was a ghost for awhile i do have 1 almost done and finished.

This i like it a lot it i might start on it next till my parts come in for my other designs

It looks easy only mount the ezb and wire it up.

The good one is hard to get going ,its starts as a baby and as it learns it grows,thats how the design works.

Its a learning robot.

This is very cool it looks like the EZ-ROBOT leaning next to the letter E

#4  

Which PINO did you buy, version 1 or 2? Did you buy them now for $30k +? Looks pretty sweet, but expensive dang!

#5  

VERSION 1 ,got it at little lower price,made in 2001 by ZMP COMPANY in japan,trying to get the open source software They said mostly schools can get it ,but still will try. I like professional design robots ,next is HANSON ROBOKIND ZENO or DARWIN
