Unveiled at the 2012 Wonder Fest convention in Tokyo yesterday is the Kuratas human-controlled robot, standing at 4 meters (13 feet) tall, weighing over 4.5 tons (9,900 pounds), and able to be operated either by climbing into a cockpit or with an iPhone app. And this is where you’ll want to be sitting down: you can customize and purchase your own Kuratas, for a mere $1.35 million.
Remember that news a little while back about how a few Japanese politician were going to discuss what it would take to build a real, working Gundam? Well, the team of engineers and artists calling themselves Suidobashi Heavy Industry, lead by iron worker Kogoro Kurata, have more than one-upped talking about a Gundam with this real working mech. The Kuratas features a humanoid upper body, with room in the “chest” for the pilot. There are four legs with wheels, capable of moving at 6.2 miles-per-hour, and two fully articulated arms.
