Robonova-I $1000 HiTEC Robot [Edit]

Ever since Robosapien took the Christmas season by storm, robots have become popular again.  (Again? yes, you remember Circuit City.  And Circuit City 2.  You liked them both.  Admit it!) Anyway, this $1000 piece of robot is made of aluminum, and it looks pretty cool.

“This is a fully customizable and programmable aluminum robot. The movement of this robot is done with HiTEC “muscles.” These smart muscles and joints give complete control of torque, speed and position.” (Gizmodo)

The Robonova is amazingly cool, and a great robot platform to experiment with and hack. Although it's more expensive than the Robosapien, it's capable of a lot more - including entry in major robot competitions like Robo-One. There's a detailed build story by Matt Bauer covering what it takes to put one together out of the box - http://www.robots-dreams.com/2006/02/robot_builder_p_1.html that also includes a short video clip of karate/kung fu moves Matt was able to program for the Robonova.
