Roboraptor on Sale

Chrismas Deals 3.

Robots are the rage this season and Roboraptor will be a good alternative since Xbox 360s are short in supply. There’s a 17% discount on the Roboraptor now at USD $99.99 from the list price of USD $119.99. Batteries not included.

Robots will someday rule the universe. With these two incontrovertible facts in mind, Mark Tilden the former NASA scientist behind Robosapien, has created Roboraptor, a programmable robotic dinosaur that’s so intelligent. Unlike a real dinosaur Roboraptor is no bird brain: multi-sensors allow this 32″ bipedal beast to see, hear and feel the environment around him. He has multiple touch sensors in his head and tail, while sonic sensors detect sound and direction. He even has three distinct moods: hunter, cautious and playful.

Roboraptor Tech Specs
