Awesome and Eerie LEGO Robot Arm

LEGO Robot Arm

"Now listen to me very carefully..."

Cali and John may be off checking out awesome robots in Japan this week but that doesn’t mean Japan’s the only place to find cool robots. Check out this eerie video of a robotic arm built entirely out of LEGO. It manages to capture a realistic range of motion, and while the strength and speed aren’t quite up to human standards, they’re impressive for such a complex LEGO construction.

Pair this with the robot skin we’ve written about in the past and how long is it until the Terminator becomes a reality? Give us your best guess in the comments!
