Hello Kitty Robot pre-orders start for 50% more moolah
Remember that Hello Kitty Robot we wrote about back in 2004? Of course, you do, you Hello Kitty obsessed soul you! Well, it looks like the makers are finally getting ready to sell the thing, for 50% more money than they were originally asking. If you want to pick up one of these interactive cuties, it'll set you back $6,300: then again, you do get stereo cameras, voice recognition, ultrasonic and "lift-up" sensors as part of the deal. Money can't buy you love, but apparently it can buy you a whole lot of simulated affection.

If you want one of these, you should probably go kill yourself.

For that kind of money, it need to have Realdoll functionality.

Hello Kitty is tired. It so retro now.

Anybody buying this has no idea how much vagina can be bought for $6300. Oblivious, if you will.
Tony Rayo @ Jul 23rd 2007 12:34AM
Would the STDs be free too or come as a priced bundle-package? Just because you brought it up, I figure you've had plenty of experience ;). Don't put Hello Kitty and sexual organs in the same part of my brain!

STDs are nothing to be afraid of, just government bullshit. You're obviously not aware that Hello Kitty once made a vibrator. I shit you not.
Tony Rayo @ Jul 28th 2007 3:58AM
I believe it was advertised as a "back massager", also it wasn't a licensed product... still funny though =).

"Money can't buy you love, but apparently it can buy you a whole lot of simulated affection."
You mean, a whole lot of it can by you simulated affection.
Nick @ Jul 23rd 2007 9:46AM
Will it blend?
