Roboraptor

WowWee's angry, aggressive Roboreptile ($120 street) does a lot with just four leg joints and only five motors. It can jump, lunge, hop on its rear legs, turn swiftly left or right, and race forward. By combining these relatively stiff legs—there are no knee or ankle joints—with a fully articulated, six-inch neck, a foot-plus-long tail, and a very reptilian face with a mouthful of rubber teeth, the Roboreptile achieves a startling effect.
