Oh hey here's a terrifying robot. Let's give it GIANT FUCKING CHAINSAW HANDS.
I'm looking at the "air reservoirs" in the chest and body that you can apparently fucking shoot or stab to force an E-stop.

They literally say you (could) shoot the thing as an actual emergency stop to brake all the actuators.

Wild.

Otacon: To stop the unit, you have to access the control panel on its back and manually input the override code—

Snake: No time! I'm gonna try shooting it.

Otacon: That'll work too. I put that in as a failsafe.

I'm reminded of the fact that the Japanese built literal giant humanoid mechs for the purposes of... teleoperated train powerline repair: https://www.theguardian.com/world/article/2024/jul/04/japan-...
I’m going to make this guy skulk around and scare the children https://mangdang.store/products/mp2
You could put a chainsaw in the front and get a robot Pochita! [0]

Hmm, maybe a low-buoyancy floater is better? Helium and a quadcopter.
Price point?
Satyr.. I assume this is satire?
The face and eyes with the chainsaw looks so satire. Is that how you got the name? Hope you are getting enough sales as it does look useful.
