Ultimate robot fighting machines... sort of

While I waste away at work, there are people building sweet robots that serve little to no purpose in most cases. This- is awesome. It panders to my geek side (perhaps more so if you acknowledge the fact that I initiated the search for these cute little critters) but it's pleasing to know somebody has something better to do with their time. It makes me feel warm and fuzzy and like I'm full of robot insides.

This robot, the Leave Me Alone Box, sums up how I feel at work alot of the time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RMGJB410Ccs

This is a robot drummer that's cranking out some pretty cool beats. The best bits though are the- wait for it- robot strippers. I kid you not. I can't think of anything geekier then getting your rocks off on gyrating robot hips... oh yeahhhh.

But the best I've ever seen is still the Yellow Drum Machine..

He looks like Johnny 5, and he's designed to make and play back music. The vid has a slow start but is worth it if you haven't checked this dude out yet. Clearly the king of all robots.
