Hot take: this thing looks easier to park than most SUVs/4WDs out there
As usual its just another shell on wheels. Nothing revolutionary here, just seems like another art project.
Why make it legged and then make it move on wheels? Doesn’t seem very robotic or futuristic to me. Just a fancy car with a gundam aesthetic
Legs because that’s what a gundam has and literally no other reason. This way the creator can pretend he’s made a robot suit.
Wheels because mechanical legs that imitate human movement are wildly impractical and fragile. Humanoid robots are basically pointless, a lot of mechanical complexity with no practical benefit.
I haven’t seen that much Gundam, but I think most/all Gundam have wheels in addition to legs. I guess it’s the best of both worlds. Wheels are best for even terrain, and legs enable traversal of uneven terrain and jumping. In fiction of course. In real life, we can’t build anything that complicated.
I like the wishes of the creators saying they want to be used for good causes, but we all know the true case of these types of machines, military, which is exactly what gundam is.
Get in on the ground floor! These are selling like hotcakes
