Robot Toy Injures 14 Children (It Has Begun)
Writing by Evan Ackerman on Friday, 30 of January , 2009 at 12:21 am
Forget cybernetic slavery… It looks like robots are skipping the raping and pillaging and going straight for violence against children. This harmless looking robot toy from Bandai is responsible for 85 complaints and 14 actual injuries to children in Japan. Apparently, as the robot transforms into a tire, it grabs its owner’s fingers and crushes them in its knee joints. Harsh. Plus, you’ve paid about $70 for the privilege. But the scary part? There are 170,000 of these evil toys running around Japan right now, hungry for more appendages to sever.
Excuse me while I go put on my iron underpants.
