Giant robot debuts in Japan

A Japanese inventor created a giant, Mech-like robot controlled from within. The machine, called Kuratas, stands thirteen feet tall and is capable of speeds of up to six miles per hour.

Amateurs, Dude.
You want a robot?
I can get you a robot.
Believe me, there are ways.
You don't want to know.
Hell, I can get you a robot by 3 o'clock.
With green manipulator hooks.

:)

No, really, I can. I am employed, Sir, at this time. Here's a link (http://multivu.prnewswire.com/mnr/raytheon/46273/) to 'Agent Coulson' from Iron Man introducing one of our robots a couple of years ago.

We often quipped about getting her to model it, but since that particular media day was timed with the Iron Man II release, who we really wanted was Scarlett Johansson. We got Clark Gregg instead  :'(

Halo? I don't understand the reference. I played 5 minutes of it in 2002 because I worked at a game company at the time and someone shoved the controller in my hands.
