I for one welcome our new Robot Overlords

Seriously though is anyone else a little freaked out by these things?  That and I also have a huge urge to blast away at one of these while it is dressed like a deer

Well, I'd like one (in 30 years- or so) to help me out at home (you know, change my diaper, etc.) and keep me out of a nursing home!
Any time is a good time for pie.

I'd get the one like in that Frank Langella film, Robot & Frank. 
"I will return before you can say 'antidisestablishmentarianism'."

"A man may fight for many things. His country, his principles, his friends. The glistening tear on the cheek of a golden child. But personally, I'd mud-wrestle my own mother for a ton of cash, an amusing clock and a sack of French porn."

I'll take 2, one with a saddle, the other with pulsed plasma rifle in the 30kW range. Oh, add bumper sticker "I'll be back!"

If the Daleks had hired these guys their plans for world domination would have gotten a serious lift

Good thing we're not worth anything then.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

It's amazing to me how something can be both cool and creepy.

USMC using one of those as a pack animal.  Reminds me of Metal Gear.

It kinda looks like a small BBQ smoker with legs.

Now that I think about it, that should totally be a thing.
