This museum is the shizzle my nizzle!  How I'd love to bring little apeguero there and show him a life-sized version of "Jet Marte" (that's Astroboy in Spanish ya'll).

Anyway, looks like a really nice place.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[apeguero]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 28th 2007 2:36PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Robot Museum in Nagoya, Japan: our first and last visit]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/28/robot-museum-in-nagoya-japan-our-first-and-last-visit/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/28/robot-museum-in-nagoya-japan-our-first-and-last-visit/</guid><description><![CDATA[Meh, WTH.  I'll reply to my own post.  I should have RTFA'd.  I didn't know that this was closing.  Too bad.  Maybe it's now politically incorrect in Japan to have a Robot Museum.

I was actually there during the 1st week of their grand opening October of last year. Bought a coffee mug, shirt, and hand-made robot keychains. NHK TV was on site doing a report. The human-size Mazinger Z brought back tons of memories.  The self-guided tour of the museum section was over-priced but the iPod nano they provided (containing audio factoids) was a nice touch. Too bad I had to return it though. :) My condolences to the crew working at the soon-to-be-shut-down Robot Museum.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[dudeman]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 28th 2007 3:19PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Robot Museum in Nagoya, Japan: our first and last visit]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/28/robot-museum-in-nagoya-japan-our-first-and-last-visit/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/28/robot-museum-in-nagoya-japan-our-first-and-last-visit/</guid><description><![CDATA[Would the girl doing the Robot be Strong Machine 2 by any chance?<br><br><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9wSMuCJCkQ" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9wSMuCJCkQ</a>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rocketboy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 30th 2007 9:16AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Robot Museum in Nagoya, Japan: our first and last visit]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/28/robot-museum-in-nagoya-japan-our-first-and-last-visit/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/28/robot-museum-in-nagoya-japan-our-first-and-last-visit/</guid><description><![CDATA[Good night, sweet prince. ;_;]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Donald]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 28th 2007 3:55PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Robot Museum in Nagoya, Japan: our first and last visit]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/28/robot-museum-in-nagoya-japan-our-first-and-last-visit/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/28/robot-museum-in-nagoya-japan-our-first-and-last-visit/</guid><description><![CDATA[Having looked at all the photos I'm a little dissapointed, it's more a 'Museum of Robot Aesthetics and Toys' than actually being a serious place. I would have thought thought it would be more 'Science Museum' (the one in London) and less 'Hello Kitty', When you think about the history of industrial robots and the current level of sophistication of things like Asimo etc (yes I know it was there, but in about a 10:1 ratio with all the Otaku stuff) there must be all sorts of cool stuff you could fill that museum with...meh guess I'm in a minority.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[HarrytheHood]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 28th 2007 4:28PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Robot Museum in Nagoya, Japan: our first and last visit]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/28/robot-museum-in-nagoya-japan-our-first-and-last-visit/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/28/robot-museum-in-nagoya-japan-our-first-and-last-visit/</guid><description><![CDATA[DO robots dream of electric sheep?

The interactive part of the museum was pretty lame and had little if anything to do with robots, and many of the "robots" on display I or my friends had as toys when we were kids.  But the main problem was the price: It was around $13 USD per person, and they wouldn't even let us take pictures of Asimo (as I learned the hard way when the Armatron claw forcefully removed my camera and crushed it in front of my very eyes...)  The history of robots was very interesting and informative, but $5 would have been a much more reasonable (and less deterring) fee for that display.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rad Hatter]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 28th 2007 10:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Robot Museum in Nagoya, Japan: our first and last visit]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/28/robot-museum-in-nagoya-japan-our-first-and-last-visit/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/28/robot-museum-in-nagoya-japan-our-first-and-last-visit/</guid><description><![CDATA[What, no Great Garloo?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[t3_slider]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 28th 2007 11:31PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Robot Museum in Nagoya, Japan: our first and last visit]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/28/robot-museum-in-nagoya-japan-our-first-and-last-visit/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/09/28/robot-museum-in-nagoya-japan-our-first-and-last-visit/</guid><description><![CDATA[Damn, should have posted about a group trip or something..
