I was stoked to see this - Jaimie is a unique guy. ("Greatest toy robot ever invented" is typical to his brand of...enthusiasm.) His YouTube channel is worth checking out (http://www.youtube.com/user/JMEMantzel). He lives in the woods (I think in Vermont), and for the past few years has been working on building a LIFE SIZE version of this toy. Looking at his YouTube page just now it seems that he's had a kid so that'll slow the Giant Robot Project down a bit, but I'm happy to see he's sold his idea & it's going forward!

Edit: his web site: http://jamius.com

Jamie and his wife's enthusiasm for life is infectious. That is an awesome family. I spent an hour going through his videos last night. I can't believe how much energy that guy has to do everything in his life.
