Robots Rule treats us to this video review - there’s a longer, text review on the site - of WowWee’s new Femisapien robot. She walks, she dances, she has a built-in “Backup Singer” mode, and she can even attack other fembots with a sword. Yes, it’s true: my lifelong goal of commanding a force of Busby-Berkeley space pirates in ostrich plumes may be at hand.

Seriously, though, she does have a fairly simple interface for learning new behaviors and looks like a fun, if nearly useless, little project. I think you could say the same for almost any commercial robotics project these days - though MIT’s stair climbing robot was pretty impressive - and, in a pinch, she’ll even dance with you.

Get one now, before they organize.
