Robosapien RS Media Review--Read Before You Buy!

The RS Media is an amazing educational toy. He walks, he talks, he can pick up items, play back your voice or your favorite music. He can take and display digital images and display videos. Further, you can select from one of four distinctive, attitude-filled personalities (Yes, he has attitude!) Create your own personality to edit his movements, sound files and video files (PC software included). You can even choreograph a dance routine to a favorite music track - a full range of motion makes him a great dancer. Tango anyone?

This is the best version of the popular Wow Wee product line. The customizable robot is fun and ever evolving. The ability to change its content make this more than hours of fun... try years! The only possible drawback would be the sheer number of batteries neccessary to operate the robot, but what do you expect.. Its a fully mobile robot.

Great Robot! Thursday, December 27, 2007A Dad from Seattle



Man, I wish I had one of these when I was a kid! My 11 year old son got one from Santa this year and really loves it. Right away he started making videos and taking pictures with it. I'll be curious to see if it sparks an interest within him to "hack" into the bot and look into programming in general. So far, though, it's just been all about the fun. He really likes the built in games and is just discovering all of the moves and features that it has to offer. I'll post back to see whether or not it holds his interest long term, but so far, he's having a great time with it.
