White Box Robotics Now Shipping PC Bots
Posted on November 4th, 2006 in Hobbyist
White Box Robotics has finally started shipping its first run of PC 914 robots. By now the first run should be completely shipped, sans the attractive outer shell, due to delays in manufacturing.You may also notice that two small vertical parting lines were added to the bottom of the robot to bring back the beautiful, slim "Y" body look of the original prototypes. Without the parting lines, the 914 had a thick, "fat-bottom" look. That proportioned look was much harder to achieve than you might think.
You can find more pictures of the new robot skins over at 914PCBots.com.

Boy that picture sure looks like the old Heathkit Hero-1. Are we already at the point of retro robotics?
