I would add a quadcopter to the top of that robot.

[mention:b85bafb1d1a14cd0b49feeaee407e32d:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] that's a far cry from 10 years ago it was like a small tank with legs.

The LEGO set looks good and it looks like it will be possible to program it with python out of the box which makes it an really intresting device.

Kinda sad that there is no LCD anymore on the NXT block tough.

When I first saw this title I thought LEGO must have bought Boston Dynamics and released Spot as a LEGO model. That would be something.

When reading about Spot I thought the price was quite reasonable ($74,000) although the article indicates this is a bit pricey.

The LEGO kit looks good, all the mobile robots a person could ever want. I do have a LEGO Robot Inventors kit, one of the early ones. I wonder if I could get another? Maybe it could be a Roadtest?
