    Price seems a little high at 2.4 billion. My friend Larry Wood did the visual design on that many moons ago.

    You guys can chip in to buy it, or I can just make one with a Basic Stamp...

    TTYTT, I'd rather have this car-juggling robot for a paltry 2.3 million:

    Thanks for the thought, Andyman!

    However, the price will be different if he decide to sell it.

    I see that the will ship to Taiwan. LOL. But I really get a feeling this should stay in Las Vegas.

    Erco could make a mini-me version using plywood, servos, and a Propeller for a fraction of the price.

    When's the twins birthday?

    What a great idea.

    Wait a minute, what stops it burning itself down? Or is that part of the plan?

    Pawn Stars could have bought this a few years ago for one million USD!

    And it eventually sold for half that, recouping just one-quarter of its construction cost. Robot dinos just don't get no love.

    I didn't expect it to be an exact replica. Some strategically applied sheet metal might do the job.
