The RoboRaptor™ is being billed as "A Fusion of Technology and Personality".

It's basically a remote-controlled raptor. The manufacturer says that it has "advanced artificial intelligence", which is exactly what we want in a flesh-eating robo-dinosaur!

It also has "realistic biomorphic motions" and "autonomous (free-roam) modes", and has three different "mood behaviors": aggressive/hunting mood; nervous/cautious mood; friendly/playful mood.

Ok, basically this is a toy dinosaur with advanced artificial intelligence, is able to cop an attitude, and can roam around freely on its own? Imagine what this could do to a chihuahua with confidence problems!

The RoboRaptor™ has been available in other countries, but is just hitting markets this week in the United States. Sharper Image has them online..
