Make: Online : DIY Supertoy

DIY Supertoy - Robo-Teddy

Nocturnal gutted and stuffed a teddy bear with a Robosapien, it's like a DIY supertoy -

"Its the Christmas season, and my little collection of toy robots seemed so cold and unmerry. So I decided to make one just a little bit more cuddly. RoboTed is the result, a cross between a Teddy Bear and a RoboSapien." - Link.

So he took a really nice teddy, and removed it's best feature, and combined it with the biggest let-down toy ever to market? Hmmm... Even the Hamster Dance can't save this one.
