Video: Wowwee's RoboPanda

If the RoboQuad and RoboBoa didn't scare you enough, now we've got a video of the scariest Robo-animal of them all... the RoboPanda. The fun lil' cutesy robot sounded like it had the potential to go iRobot / Matrix / [insert favorite robots take over world scenario here] when the bot asked, "Have you ever been attacked by a panda?" It really did say that, but if you could avoid the obvious welcoming of our robot panda overlords, we'd appreciate it.

Just wait until you activate the battle mode by accident.

I don't know about anyone else but I find it slightly creepy that there's a toy that continually asks you to touch it all over its body. One day those blue eyes are gonna turn red and it's going to ask you to touch its ass for a good time.

Robo Puppy preparing to lick cheek...Robo Puppy commencing cheek licking. Licking in progress. Licking complete.

That's cute, but kinda creepy at the same time. Perfect. I want one.

That incessant chattering would drive me mad. This bot is actually like a bad date...always babbling on about something in an inane manner, full of non-sequitars, and always demanding to be paid attention to. Its almost as much work as just having a child of your own....

Hell, who HASN'T said "touch my tummy for a story" at one point or another. Make one that looks like Lucy Liu or Sung Hi Lee, and you've got a real hit on your hands.
