      jfc, could they make it any more fucking ominous?

      Plus, the whole “you can easily disable it by puncturing the lung-analog air tank in its torso with a weapon or projectile” and “the horns are to slow it down moving through doorways” bits. What exactly are you trying to design against again because that sounds like a creature, or at the very least something autonomous, not a remote operated robot.

          Possible, but I feel like a lot of effort went in for it to only be satire. No obvious AI images, multiple views of the thing including close up of the “hand” and they’re all consistent. Could be made as an art sculpture and this is the satirical product page, maybe.

          Looks like all the current news coverage of it is reacting as if it’s real/credible as well.
