This is very interesting! Thanks for posting it =)

The skinless one reveals alot about his playability. He has alot of dynamics in his neck, tail and the twisting body is a good touch. Walking is fairly good but the eye movements are nice! (From video of course) The only problem I see is his lacking of facial "expressions"... He can't move his eye brows or move his corners of his lips to "smile" or "frown". Something that would make it more of a winner IMO. It could use more of those foil sensor things. Lets hope he can be alot more active and actually do some tricks. The only other thing I would like to see (other than more liveliness and emotion) is how well he can navigate and see things. And not just an edge detector. Those are starting to get old.


I have seen those metal foil pads used before! In a Tekno toy I took apart! It was in his forehead. *Runs off to research types of switches that one is*
