WowWee robots invade McDonald's Happy Meals

WowWee's robot empire has seen some frighteningly rapid growth since the first Robosapien rolled off the assembly line, but it doesn't seem to be showing any signs of slowing down, with pint-sized versions of a number of the company's bots now making their way into McDonald's Happy Meals. While the king has sadly been left out, starting today you can get a Walking Robosapien, Roaring Roboraptor, Talking Robosapien V2, Running Roboreptile, Walking Robopet, Chomping Roboraptor, or Stand-Up Robosapien with the purchase of a Happy Meal. Those less interested in fostering the inevitable robot uprising can opt for a My Little Pony toy instead. Of course, all of the bots are decidedly less capable than their pricier counterparts, although we doubt that'll stop some of you from trying to mod them anyway. Check out the gallery below for a better look at 'em.

I hope I can get these without having to buy any of that "food".

I for one, welcome our walking, running, roaring, standing, and talking robot overlords.

Oh hell yeah, this post reminded me to check whether radioshack.com had the FlyTech DragonFly in stock, and they currently do! I just ordered one.

$100 bucks to the first person who can mod MacSapien so he fries My Little Pony into cinders.

I just went out and bought the two they had. I got the walking robo and the dino robo. They are pretty cool.

I'm stuck also; my kids have played that a million times, so I finally Googled it and found this. At least I know it's "I am wowwee" at the beginning. ;) But the middle part sounds like "nefarious".

I found it: "I am WowWee Robotics model RSV2"
