You've seen walkers in anime and always wanted one - well you don't have to wait that much longer as Toyota seem to be developing them. Great for stepping on your friends. Via Akihabara News.
"Oh sorry! Didn't mean to step on your foot" But wouldn't a powerd suit be better?
"What miniature railway?"
They are making those too! In production for the American military.
So you're telling me Toyoto is not going with the huge Metal Gear-like bipedal robot like I wanted? I'm cancelling my order then...
it's a start, though.. :)
They could have at least made it look like the AT-ST. With lighting gun turrets and such. I thought technology was supposed to be amazing! Ramp it up YOTA!
I can imagine Toyota being the first producer of mechs for warfare! lol
! "Metal Gear!?"
will this also fall down a flight of stairs?
That reminds me of the robot that fell down the stairs in the first robocop movie...
I bet it's super slow
1.5 mph! So.. yes.
Toyota would REALLY impress me if they'd invent a faster walker, I mean this thing sure is awesome but not as awesome as a running walker!
no gun turrets? at least you could have two that shoot water or paint balls.
lol, want to see it tripped :D
As far as I can see, base on the egg shape design I believe that you probably won't hut bad if that thing fell.Sorry to be a smart ass but it my job a little bit involve in it. But hey, you will be Ok if the walker fell but guess what happen to anything in 2 m radius around you >< .
Huh, wat if it falls head down first. I dun think that bar on the top is gonna save the driver. Shouldn't they add arms to help with break falls??
if it tripped it would be really hard to get it up again
hmm, looks uber cool, to bad it will eat power i think tough.
Solar Power! Let's be green...!
Wow D_Blade, you sound brainwashed. LOL, j/k
Too much housecleaning and recycling. *Sigh* (Compensates with some Legend of Zelda)
AAAhhhh.. Zelda. Much better. That dust must have gotten to you, I know how you feel, I had to dust my whole house the other day. Its amazing how much dust builds up in a short period of time. I AM in a desert though...
so if you get road rage in the thing, do you kick the other landwalker? but i want one!
Lol is this the next model up from the landcruiser?
In regard to the Land Walker someone already attempted something like this, and well it was more like a land crawler though I guess he/she made that on his own budget XD http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=_N_IE8O1Kww
It's the predecessor to the AT-ST
More like the predecessor to the Bogatyr Walkers in Battlefield 2142.
Serious? Whats it run on? If its gas, it wont last very long..
It runs on Metatron.
I bet it runs on Nuke.
It obviously runs on energon
will it be able to help us get hot babe as girlfriend? like what bumblebee did. ('~')
LOL... Nah, I doubt that it would... But I think it could help you break a few bones if you it fell down the stairs and yoou're on it...
rule 34 !
rule 1 and 2 XD dont bring that here lol
Thanks 4chan.. thanks a lot.
W00t! Make the Wanzers from the Front Mission universe a reality!
want
Hostile walker at sight! - battlefield 2142
It should be powered with "soldiers" to be practical. =o
We'll have a really real gundam soon..?
Now, you just gotta add some rail guns and a missile on the back , and this baby's set for combat! YEAH!
damn! Toyota keeps making stuff
the guys are right. this is full of fail, unless they up the size of this sucker by 4-5 times, add a protective shell ala zentraedi battle pod, tag on some laser gatling cannons or heat seeking multi missile pods on it, lol.
available in usa soon, yes? i tape my gun to it make supa person weapon!
I wouldn't call it a mecha until it can jump 3 times the height I can. It must also run faster than I do. Otherwise it's kind of a waste. I bet for now, going on foot is faster. I still expect something like in the MGS trailers xD
How long would it take to turn around?
A few years
it might be slow but this is perfect for those mobility challenged people ^^
mm..nice concept but most probably not suitable for daily outdoor usage & the price will definitely be expensive..
One step closer to a real Gundam everyday! I want one to walk around town in.
I want one built more like my raven AC configuration as I build mine in the AC games....or maybe a Gundam like XXXG-01W or ZGMF-X20A or something...before bothering with placing any orders for a mecha...
as a side note that rattletrap in the pix does look striking similar in some aspects to the doofus rig from RoboCop...I wonder if it can squeal piggy style and kick like the one from the RoboCop movie too. duh....
HISTORY IN THE MAKING!!!!
I can picture a loli riding that thing, actually (and being all moesome on it)
looks like the eureka seven mecha
I always wanted that thingy...I always dream I can use a machine or wad bring mi go to my class @ the 4th floor and go to the canteen @ the 1st floor..without using my extra newton..
