Kid’s Walker exo-suit for kids

Some of you might remember when we reported on the real-life XOS 2 Iron-Man suit a few days ago. I suppose this would be the kids-size version.

This is the Kid’s Walker, which has a height of 5 1/4 feet. I suppose that is pretty tall if you are a kid. I’m not certain if you really want to put your kid in this suit. Seriously, if you think the kid has a tantrum now, wait until he or she puts on this iron suit. The end result would be like the climax of a monster movie.

By the way, the Kid’s Walker doesn’t really walk, it more shuffles along on a pair of wheeled feet. I believe it is controlled by two joysticks, and some of those pedals probably do that as well. The XOS 2 can lift about 170 pounds, but I have no idea how much this one can lift.

Okay, I would love to see footage of a kid in this suit, tearing apart cars or something. Man, would I love to have some video of that. Seriously, I would pay to have video of that bad-boy footage.

This Kids Walker is designed by Sakakibara Kikai, and it costs about $21,000.

Death Star Planterium lets you look into the Star Wars galaxy

The mind of a child is a truly wondrous thing, or something in the same vein was muttered by Master Yoda back in Attack of the Clones when Obi-Wan was trying to locate the Kamino system in the Jedi archives. Well, you can let your imagination run free and child-like with the Death Star Planterium, a device that is capable of turning your dark room into that of the Star Wars galaxy, now how about that? To make matters more interesting, this tabletop planetarium itself resembles that of the Death Star, hence its name. It can not only project the Star Wars galaxy and planet names, it also has a much more down-to-earth (pardon the pun) feature in the form of projecting the Earth’s night sky as well. Good to know it comes with a fun and informative learning guide to make the toy all the more interesting. The Death Star Planterium is powered by a trio of AA batteries, where you can bring one home for the kids for $27.99.
