Honda has attracted even more media attention here in Japan with the development of their P3 robot. This unit can actually play with a ball and do complex tasks. The fluidity of its movements are astounding, particularly the near-natural way it can walk, including even up or down stairs. Makes you wonder what is in the lab!

What may be more amazing than this is that Wave decided to market an injection-plastic kit of the machine. And what a kit it is! It's fully up to Bandai "High Grade" standards, featuring snap assembly and poly-caps for smooth joint action. This version is clear plastic, and is very, very posable!
