Giant wearable mech suit for sale on Amazon
Ideal for anyone who enjoys destroying cities and throwing cars at fleeing citizens, an operational Kuratas mech robot suit has hit Amazon Japan, albeit for an eye-watering price tag.
Piloted using motion controls on a touchscreen device operated from inside a small cockpit, the suit was designed back in 2012 and came with twin Gatling guns capable of shooting 6000 BBs per minute, though sadly this 'starter kit' is arms-sold-separately.
It is produced by Suidobashi Heavy Industry and on sale for ¥120,000,000 (over $1 million dollars), but hey at least shipping is only about $3.
Customers looking to terrorise their neighbours or star in their own Guillermo Del Toro-esque robot vs kaiju movie can learn how to operate the suit in the video above, though they should probably be aware that it has a top speed of 6mph and 'safety and comfort' are not guaranteed.
As slightly more affordable absurd gadgets go, how about this insanely over-the-top external controller for your smartphone?
