Created by Masaaki Nagumo, the “Land Walker” is a wearable robot suit — think Mobile Suit Gundam — that stands 3.4m high and weighs a hefty 907kg (1-ton) — “can walk forward, backward or sideways at 1.5 kph by operating four pedals, and shoots sponge bullets from two air guns installed beside the cockpit.” Available now in Japan, priced at a whopping $313,985USD. Video after the jump. (Thanks, Zipped)
