$3000. For a teddy bear. How delicate is it, and how easy will it be to repair?

App ideas:

Diagnostics and Repair: to it can help you take itself apart and put itself back together.

BearSwarm/BeoBaer: connect multiple Bear together into a cooperative unit

Bear8s: load balance those units!

WarBear: If these work and only cost $3000 a pop, you can expect the Army to want some.

The endoskeleton is in Polycarbonate, so it's pretty sturdy and the servomotors are all high-quality and highly available third party motors, so it's pretty easy to repair.

Thanks for the app ideas! (besides the WarBear one lol)
