@TonyMontana2367 I for one welcome our robot baby overlords.
@TonyMontana2367 that's so creepy.............imagine that robot is next to your wife and said here's your baby
@TonyMontana2367
I just checked: its a very small man and a regular sized robot baby.
@jjacinto
The robot says "Here's your baby"?
@TonyMontana2367
That's no baby! It's android Curly... and from the look on his face, he's not gonna take any more 5hit!
I'd like me a piece of that. ;)
@Fadakar
Perv!
Gizmodo had this story a few weeks ago, but yeah it's indeed creepy :o
@Jakob
Actually Botjunkie was the first to post about it. You guys should link to them instead: http://www.botjunkie.com/2010/01/12/robot-babies-are-always-a-mistake/
I will pay a lot of money to see this fight Gary Coleman.
@Jason B
What'choo talkin' 'bout Willis?
@Jason B
It kinda looks like a white Gary Coleman doesn't it? :)
oh god, this is the kind of post that Gizmodo would do. PLEASE engadget, do not become like Giz
KILL IT
@ACER
WITH FIRE!
@ACER
Oooh.. tear me off a corner of that square!
The size is so wierd, I looked away about to scroll down, but I kept scroling back up because the size of the head is so intriguing, and I'm like WTF all 5 times I did that
If you guys think the picture here is creepy, you should check out the pics in the source link. Especially the third one.
@Malkmus
will you please shut up and make that Pavement reunion happen, dude?
@DariaMorgendorffer
Pavement already reunited; they're playing a whole load of dates this year.
As for the robot...holy crap, all that technology and they couldn't have made it smile a little?
The head shown here was a prototype. Since it didn't meet their specs, it's not being kept.
wow, the world in on a roll with magical and revolutionary devices, children, accessories, 3g plans, just too much to handle... to much magic
The new T-5000
What stinks!? Someone go change his iPad.
@edf
A sniff a load of iPad jokes in the future
The face of the future is.....
a Grim one.
Thats one big Fuc&*%$ baby. God i sure hope the moms ok.
Robo-Pedobear approves.
The end is near.
and i was just about to head to bed...sweeeeet dreams!
Why is life like this.
Why can't they make a robot Manbearpig?
It looks like one of those psychic kids from "Akira". If one of them had been degloved in a twin-engined, ceramic-rotored motorcycle accident. And if one of them had actually been a cyborg.
So i sent my friend the pic to see what he thought, lmao this is how it went

Lol did they use George Lopez when they were working on the head?
That baby has literally the biggest head I have ever seen on a child.
It's bigger than grown adults for crying out loud
WTF why is is so flipping massive!?
"The Apple iPad wasn't the only magical and revolutionary thing revealed this week."
So the Apple iPad is as creepy and useless as this, right?
Does none of these dum dum scientist read Isaac Asminov?
LOL
The Scientist looks like Tony Robinson.
(aka Baldrick in Blackadder)

Uncanny resebmlance ..no?
All I can think of when I look at that things is the creepy robotic octopus baby that Sid made in Toy Story.
it's a robot dwarf, not a robot baby
That.......is a very scary thing that will haunt many nightmares.
God forbid that thing smiles. Puppet Master, anyone?
he will haunt your nightmares. he will stalk your dreams. he will be there where ever you turn around, and he will eat your soul.
Bit sad that you have to make it horrible with a doll's head to get in the news, why doesn't the news want to report on normal robots? Now they are forced to disgust us to get attention.
"Can I come with you ?"
Anyone who seen Screamers will understand... :)
Good god! that child fell off the ugly tree and hit every branch on the way down. A face only a mother could love.
