Oct 2 2008Aaaaaaah!: Scary Ass Robot Girl
This is a robot girl named Repliee R-1. She's an android built by Osaka University and based on an actual 5-year old girl. And I think I speak for everyone when I say they chose their model pretty fucking poorly.

Thanks to Firuz, Tytus, Jake, and Justin, who all agree the only good robot is -- wait, there are no good robots.

Great. That will give pedophiles something to add to their Christmas list.
10. SmokingGirl - October 2, 2008 1:56 PM
That, eh...is it just me or does this robot look retarded? Could just be me.
And we're one step closer to sexbots, my friends, one step closer. *shudders* Blah.

if i ever had a robot, the last thing i would want it to look like is an asian child with downs syndrome. honestly.
12. will.i.am. - October 2, 2008 1:59 PM
#11 said it. bad case of the downs! lmao that thing looks like it belongs in one of those grudge movies!
13. poop (muthafuckas!) - October 2, 2008 2:01 PM

"... 50 sensors, and a number of motors allow her to move more like a human WITH RICKETS than previous robots."
16. Karen - October 2, 2008 2:10 PM
It looks like one of Sarah Palin's paint chip eating kids.
17. bailey - October 2, 2008 2:13 PM
THis kinda reminds me of those 80's scary movies like THE THING, or stuff ALIENS where the special effects used to show replicas of humans looked like this,
the music makes it even more scary, that thing freaked me out the second i saw it, then it just made me laugh so hard, Of all the models they could think of first they think of the ASIAN NERDY looking robot and now this!!!!
it's just horrible

The coming robot apocalypse has no use for Downey androids.
19. Rob - October 2, 2008 2:31 PM
Just like Snoop, she can't quite open her eyes all the way.
20. hnb - October 2, 2008 2:32 PM

21. Miles - October 2, 2008 2:51 PM

22. YAY! - October 2, 2008 2:57 PM

26. DIgitalT - October 2, 2008 3:39 PM

27. Amaranth - October 2, 2008 4:05 PM
thank goodness they used a drugged/molested 5 year old as a model for the pedophiles who will be online to buy this robot.
28. HellAngel669 - October 2, 2008 4:19 PM
Hey look, were closer to a robotic apocalypse....YAY
29. cbobgo - October 2, 2008 4:21 PM
I hope they don't let that one robotics guy that likes to grope the robots near her. I don't think she can move fast enough to get away.
30. Thumperchica - October 2, 2008 4:46 PM
@ 3 & 25 - me too... *tears up* I used to not have to worry... now, it censors it all out - so even if I wanted to watch it, I couldn't...
31. awayguy - October 2, 2008 4:52 PM
that reminds me of the little dolly from the movie the sixt day.
32. OctoGooch - October 2, 2008 7:27 PM
Those are some disgusting ass eyelids. But I can't deny that this is the sex doll of the future. Or at least I pray to god that it is. Lord please let me have a creepo twitchy zombie baby bot of my own!
33. Andrew - October 2, 2008 7:41 PM

34. coolguy - October 2, 2008 8:32 PM

35. Atrides - October 2, 2008 9:42 PM
This robot's on drugs
36. NekoNeko - October 3, 2008 12:01 AM
Yup. Cool. I've always wanted to be murdered by a homicidal robot who also looks like a mentally challenged 5 year old with mumps.
37. Keanan - October 3, 2008 2:34 AM
This is creepy but if you want to see something good there was a bear in Kitimat a few weeks back that opend the door to subway and had a little wander around. (Three weeks ago but only just showing up on in the interweb.)
38. kaos - October 3, 2008 2:34 AM
It's a good thing they kept it this size. That way, the head's at the right height for a good swing of the trusty ol' baseball bat...
(The thing really did creep me out though, so now wifey sleeps on the couch, and the baseball bat sleeps next to me in bed.. just in case the invasion's coming at night time...)

43. Dan - October 6, 2008 1:07 AM
It needs one more sensor to look in the mirror and see how fugly it is and put itself out of misery.
44. Arboreus - October 6, 2008 4:09 AM
