Mecha Cellphone, Because Why Not

Writing by Evan Ackerman on Wednesday, 27 of February , 2008 at 3:56 am

The SoftBank 815T cellphone may not be a cool as this robot phone, but it is slightly more functional (albeit less robot-y) than this one. The phone itself is ho-hum, with 3G, a 3.2 mpx camera, and a QVGA screen. You turn it into a little mech figure by gluing (yes, gluing) matching arms and legs to the body of the phone. I guess, um, it might be useful as a speakerphone stand, but it’ll certainly cut down on the portability a little bit. The SoftBank phone is made to accessorize a new Japanese TV drama for teenagers called Ketai Sousakan 7, which apparently is supposed to feature robotic phones in some way.

I love you, Japan… You and your crazy robot phones.
