Takara Tomy’s remote control robo-Q robot is tiny, incredibly cute

Takara Tomy never fails to impress, and with its latest robot, it’s done an excellent job at eliciting “awws.” You see, the February-bound robo-Q bipedal robot is about the size of a human thumb, yet its heart and mind are big enough to understand commands via remote control. There’s even obstacle recognition software built-in to keep it from toppling over gigantic foreign objects (you know, like toothpicks and push pins), which is awesome enough in and of itself to warrant the ¥3,675 ($42) price tag.
