Congratulations to us all. We still live despite all of the metal predators that are being built and programmed everyday. Let’s give ourselves a big pat on the back and then promptly begin building robot holocaust shelters. This week over at Botropolis we did the usual. We saw toys we love, bots we fear, some shirts we really would like to wear before the end…. Here’s some of what we covered this week.

Conspiracies: Secret US Military Autonomous Robot Project Spotted?

Terminator 3: Funny deleted scene.

RC Bats: Bots gone batty.

C3P-0: Straight Or Gay? (NSFW).

Sure, this scooter looks silly. And the idea that it could frighten you with a helmet wearing officer riding it seems silly as well. You would be wrong. The T3 Mobile Defender is something that should worry you. It comes equipped with a powerful non-lethal air gun that could kill you dead if it hit you in the head. So, in order to avoid such a scene, the gun is equipped with a holographic sight system that makes it super accurate.

An eyepiece shows a red target dot, which is transmitted to a monitor, then to the gun. Barry Lamperd, the creator, says that as long as the holographic sight is on target, you can’t miss. That’s easy to say from his perspective. I hope he’s right, because they plan to sell the scooter to the US Army for crowd control situations. (In Iraq? Or are they expecting us to get uppity?) Expect to see it cruising your neighborhood before too long as well.

Here’s another look into a possible future where hair dye and colored wigs and gadgets go hand and hand. Yesterday we told you about the 2010 Wii. Well, here’s another item from T3. This one sports a dame with pink hair and big…dreams, if you’re interested in clicking through to see.

It’s an XBox 360 and a Zunephone in one compact package that leaves us drooling. But you know how it goes. Unfortunately, there is no real Zune phone. It’s going to have to remain in fantasy land, where brightly haired babes play with them.
