The King has been reincarnated, this time as a lifelike, singing and talking robot. WowWee has used motion capture to recreate the expressions of the best selling solo artist in U.S. history. The Robot sports a leather jacket styled from the 68 Comeback Special.
The Elvis robot animates autonomously, tracks movement using infrared sensors and makes the occasional famous Elvis remark. You can also switch modes and let Elvis sing a single for you, plugin the mike and you can sing along with Elvis.
