This is an awsome device. Toys arent meant to do anything in the first place except entertain. Imagine them improving this into toys. You an set two of them face to face and they battle. This would be a toy for adults really. How much fun it would be to have a battle royale.

wow...that reminds me of this cartoon that was out in the early 90's...they were robots made of cars and trucks and a toaster I believe...and they would change into human form to exterminate any remaining hair bands from the 80's...can't remember the name but it was cool. -s-

That's a very cool technology demo. I'm failing to see the possible practical applications for such a thing but hey that doesn't stop it from being very damn cool.

Looks like a prototype to me so it won't do much. If that were to get made into a toy, I bet it would not have all those wires sticking out, either. ;)

This is a nice proof of concept. As for no practicle applications you never know, a fell sized one of these truly would be an all terrain vehicle. 'Course as a toy I'd have to have one, been a transformers fan all my life

If it's made into a toy it won't have much of the functionality left either.

Transformer Endlich gibt es einen echten Transformer, der sich von einen Fahrzeug in einen Zweibeiner verwandel kann. Vielleicht kommt ja bald sowas tolles wie von einen Auto in ein Flugzeug, was zwar zu einen Chaos führen würde, aber lustig wäre es trotzdem. Hier...
