yea I have the same problem, but mine it in pieces. I'm trying to figure out a good mod for it. But with everythig I'm doing right now it has hit the back burners at the moment. I did here of a good mod to try, though I have not had the time to do testing on it. It's putting a back edge detector on it so it wont fall off the table while baking up. If your good with electronics and haking you might want to try to make a circuit for this. Just a though. GWJax

GWJax, To Hack and make mods on robots is a life style and comes natural and not by choice. If a robot has a screw to open it then it must be opened!

The back edge detector sounds good... mine fell off a table 3 times while going backwards. Thanks.

Dont worry. If thats what i pick to do then i'll be sure to keep you guys informed on my progress. What i was hoping for was a list, so i could pick which would be the best.

Does anyone else get distracted by staring at his small circular 'mouth'?

Let's hope not because that is how it finds the edge. I know another on for you. inside of his head put a bunch of small leds that flash like he is thinking about something. The top of the head is a see through purple plastic mainly to cut down on IR interfearance. You could also give him sterioscopic hearing instead of mono hearing. On the back of his neck is a little button that can be drilled out and install a LED that flashes when he makes a noise from the speaker. or some how give him a wagging tail that if you pull it he howels. or replace the on off switch with a push down switch on the button on the back hips so it's easeier to turn him on and off. Just some more thoughts. GWJax
