Sorry, I guess I was hi jacking the thread. :angel
Really, building your own is the way to go if you have the time and motivation.

The licensed replicas are mainly for collectors that do not have the time to build their own. I will have to produce and sell more than just the first ten to make up my development costs (and I had very low overhead), so no apologies for the price.

And hey, at least mine are less expensive than a Robby... http://www.hammacher.com/publish/10921.asp

Mike,
You dont have to justify your price to anyone. You did it ,man. You succeeded where other big boys have failed. Truly the best version of this robot I have ever seen, and licensed to boot.

Kudos to you.

Totally fantastic work dude. Truly amazing, and a testament to your tenacity. Excellent work.

Now if only someone would offer the same thing for R2. I'm one of those poor saps with no time, but plenty of money to blow on a built up unit. Hook a brother up.

Product Enterprise is coming out with an 8" diecast B9 as part of their new Irwin Allen line.

Darn right it leads to madness, but who wants to be sane. :lol

Mike,

Was it hard getting UL Certification? Seein' as how it's got the high voltage for the neons, etc.?

Kinda curious as to what all's involved in bringing a product like this to market.

That is so pretty, I wonder if I'd miss my wife That much

Mike Joyce runs the site, has the license, and is a member here.  Great guy, too.

Thanks.

We just finished our first ten licensed replicas.
A very short movie here:

Nothing quite like seeing ten Robots moving and talking all at once.

Best.

That is a childhood dream come to life. I'd never be able to afford it, but I'd love to just have a look at one up close. Wow. :love

 

[R2B9]

I can only say one word:

FAN****INGTASTIC....

ok, some other words: incredible. brilliant. and truly, a childhood dream come true to see a row of B-9s all life-sized and operating.

wowowowowowowowowowowow.

I dont seem to have the website anymore BUT I remember doing a serach of the B9 forums and there was a gentleman who was writing a B9 OS for macs so his robot would have voice commands and such

OK found it. For those wanting a BIT of automation in thier bots.
