Them. I mean, them. We’re all human here, everything’s human. . .um. . .how are you?

This, however is just silly. Robots taking over the world! Ha! Haha. Ha.

Step right up, ladeez and gennlmen, for the price of one click on your mouse experience the wonder of Hajime’s Transforming Robot!(video link)

Hajime is a favorite and former competitor of The International Robogames.

If you were a Robo-One competitor in the 2004 Games, you might remember him soundly kicking your Robo-One’s central processor and inciting servo-envy among the American combat builders, many of whom gave Robo-Ones a try at the 2005 Robogames. 2006 will be the year the Japanese and Americans go head to head to see who reigns supreme!

Okay so it’s not technically a robot but it’s a work of art, anyway:

Joshua Ellingson, fine purveyor of robot art.

Suicidebots has a crush on this young man and plies him with liquor and adorement every chance we get.

Buy his art!

Everyone retire to your workshops with some WD-40 and privacy.

Included in this month’s edition is a lovely article by some nerd named David Calkins, The President of The Robotics Society of America in San Francisco on the gasp-inducing, servolicious abilities of HiTec’s Robonova-1.  If anyone went to Robonexus and saw these critters in action you will know why drooling was invented.

Not so much that the product is cute, though it is, what adorables us out here in the botbunker is the kawaii engrish they use as descriptive copy.

Let us regard the common city pigeon. Not only are these hardy little creatures resourceful in their ability to survive and distribute solid waste, they alse serve as fodder for peregrine falcons and artists alike!

It’s got robots, It’s got women, It’s got robot women, in the grand tradition of Scandinavian (robot-infused) theater. Take a gander and be excited.

Also check out Botmatrix’s site, because the world needs more all-woman robot architecture ensembles. We will be friends with them one day, Oh Yes, we will.
