Interesting way to overpromise. All for $235!

    This just seems... wrong. It makes it sound as if he created Wall-E.

    I don't know... it doesn't seem any more exaggerated than a lot of advs I see (in robotics). It would be a perfect parts collection for robot made in blank CD containers, which I believe was featured article recently :|

    It looks like it is missing the chassis.

    Experiencing, as it were, power and easiness (implied waves of euphoria) comes with a price.

    Of note is the proclamation of its being "the world's most complete robot kit". Something can be more or less incomplete than something else, I suppose (i.e. a bag with 97 cents is a less incomplete dollar than a bag with 94 cents, errrr), but if it's complete then it's complete. If it has all the stuff, being complete by definition (Oops), and then they throw in some Neccos and 1/2 a pack of cigarettes then it's more complete, more completer, it has the most completiness or completitudininity - or what?

    And that's the way it was.
