There's something about
fire-breathing robots that just gets us
giddy, so you can imagine our joy when finding one that gallops, too. The hand-built robot dog -- cutely coined LRRY-1 (pronounced Larry, we'll have you know) -- was built almost entirely from unwanted Citroën scraps, and not a single ounce of non-recycled material was used in the final construction. No idea if it's technically street legal, but we'd love to see a
traffic warden try to get this thing back in its cage. Video is posted after the break.

Maybe not the traffic warden . . . maybe the dogcatcher instead.
Fire Breathing Robot dog...FROM HELL
my vet does not accept this type of breed
Though it has only one head, I believe Cerberus is the name you were looking for.
Wait until it starts pissing napalm up a lamp-post.
This NEEDS to be in a Christmas parade. Just tweak it a bit, and we have a fire-blowing Rudolph. This time, he wins over the other reindeer not with kindness but with BRUTE FORCE.
KILL IT WITH Fi...
Holly Shit!
I didn't know plants could defecate. Amazing.
My dog can beat up your dog.
My dad can beat off your dad.
yeah. that's hawt.
Now THATS the way to void your warranty!
Entertaining, Can I have a toy dog version?
That is probably one of the most awesome things ever!!!
I'd like to see the Dog Whisperer try to tame this.
And for the first time ever Caesar Milan agrees with the owner, this dog need to be put down.
Only after Ceasar took it back to his Dog Psychology Center, where this thing promptly killed his entire pack.
Fuck Tickle Me Elmo, I want THIS for Christmas!
I wonder what it's shit looks like.
TNT
wtf is rong with ur head ?
OMG SUPER COOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One step closer to Fahrenheit 451.
Cool, people around the thing actually appeared to be quite afraid LOL!
That's how we do it down in Texas
Apart from this isn't Texas, you fucking moron.
Whats texas got to do with this.
wow samboini chill out. not like he attacked you personally; maybe just describing his home town or something.
Ha he says shitreon. Damn, if only I knew where this was happening I would've gone out with camera to capture it.
Citreon scrap? Or, in other words a 2 year old C4. Still, better than a robot car that dances like your dad (look it up on YouTube non-UK readers).
he clearly says it's a 2CV not a C4
Sooo, killing it with fire is out of the question then ... ? It looks very impressive in any case.
What would happen if this thing had a kid?
That's pretty sissy music for a robot dog. Bring on some Fear Factory!
Reminds me of "Mad Max" , "Blade Runner" or more recently "Underworld"....pretty cool stuff.
omg total mad max.. I want that guy on my side
am I the only one that is instantly reminded of dog from HL2?
Came in here to say it.
The head of that "dog" looks more like the head of Jeff Goldblum in The Fly. Scary either way though!
Man. Nothin' like a handmade fire-breathing robot dog to make digital picture frames look boring as hell.
Incidentally, the next post is for a digital picture frame.
HOG DOG!
it would be better if it could run imo
Have to walk before you can run, son.
Nice lighter!
Down boy! Who's a good little fire breathing dog? who is? who is? lol
Fire as turn indicator lights.
Neat.
Only one word: KICKASS!
now that's a HOT DOG!
I for one, welcome...
I really hope they dont create that fire breathing reindeer........it would be one step closer to the futurama evil santa reality.
Good News everyone! We just installed an iron door on our chimney.
