This is so weird. It’s definitely making me think of the uncanny valley hypothesis…
Anyway, Thomas and Janet above are theatrical robots in Taiwan’s Phantom Of The Opera play.
Thomas The Tank Engine as Voltron
August 4, 2009 @ 3:29 am
It looks like a Chinese toy manufacturer has fused the lives of Thomas The Tank Engine (and his friends) with the 5 lions from the Voltron force and created this odd Thomas The Tank Engine Voltron toy. [via]
The 3 tank engines split into 5 parts and create the head, body, arms and legs of the robot just like Voltron (albeit a bit sillier looking).
Anyway, a Japanese individual has gotten his hands on this toy set and has graciously posted many photos for us to look at (translated page here).
