5.6 feet walking tower robot - Tsutenkaku Robo

 Tsutenkaku 

 A group of companies in Osaka are joining force to build a 5.6 feet (170 cm) bipedal robot that looks like its well-known landmark - the Tsutenkaku tower. The Tsutenkaku Robo, which will come to life sometime in 2010, is aimed to promote Osaka city and it's businesses.  

 It won't be as tall as the 210 cm Hajime Robot but still should have a towering effect. The 30kg (66 lb) Tsutenkaku Robo will be constructed by Robot Force which in the past has built FIVE and many other robots.
