Is this it for man-kind? Will robots rule the Earth and drive humans into extinction? Only if they can sing us to death. “Titan the Robot” was unleashed at during GITEX Technology Week held at Dubai International Convention and Exhibition Centre. During the GITEX Tech Week, convention goers get to check out the latest and greatest gadgets and gizmos from electronic companies such as Cisco, Hitachi, Panasonic, Sanyo, Seagate and Verbatim. Titan was the creation of Nik Fielding and is sponsored by Panasonic. Consider how evil and menacing this robot is, Titan can sing, dance, and hit on the ladies. The kicker is, Titan is not really a real robot. Titan is actually an suit with animatronics. Theres actually some dude inside Titan. Unfortunately, many people though this was the real deal, only to find out that it was some cheap parlor tricks. Even with the deception, Titan is pretty cool to look at. Kind of looks like the bastard child of of Iron Man and ABC Warrior (from Judge Dredd) after they had one too many shots to tequila. Hit the jump to see this sucker in action. Fabulous!

If this Taiwan, you be dead.
Taiwan… Why are you so bad ass? In an attempt to promote and celebrate Taiwan’s Recruitment Center of National Armed Forces, Taiwan released a 60 second commercial featuring the country’s various armed forces such as the army, air force, and navy. To make it more interesting and “hip”, the commercial also features a ton of Transformer-like mechas. It is pretty obvious that this is a blatant rip-off of Michael Bay’s Transformers, but who gives a shit. I am only disappointed that the United States military didn’t think of this first. On a sidenote, if Taiwan DID have a fighting force of mechas, would they become a global military threat? I think not. If these mechas are anything like the toys or electronics Taiwan produces, most likely they will fall apart and crap out after two or three days. USA! USA! USA! Hit the jump to see this crazy commerical!

Men and women think about sex ALL the time. Apparently, this is also the case with robots like Transformers and Gundams. Threadless.com designer/artist Joshua Winship Carpenter (AKA injosh) from Flushings, New York created a bitchin’ piece called “Lonely Robot Dirty Mind”. Here we have a Gundam/Optimus Prime mash-up lookin’ robot thinking about the “A” and B”s. What a perv.
The tees are available for both men and women and the designs are printed on navy American Apparel tees. Comfortable!
