Rescue Heroes PowerMax Ultimate Robotic Vehicle
item #78362 by Fisher-Price

I almost didn't buy this when I saw it because I thought something important was missing that should have mounted on his chest. You can plainly see the connector in the photo. After I brought it home, I found that that connector is to place one of the Rescue Hero figures - at which point the robot will recognize the character and actually interact with it.

When you move the robot in any direction, he makes realistic mechanical noises and actually 'glides' his feet. Using the remote you can move his right arm up, down, in and out. The left hand is actually a claw that you shoot manually by pressing the button on his wrist. You then ratchet the claw back in. There is a button on his lower back that you can press that will extend his upper torso up while he announces his extension. Then there is a button on his shoulder that will pop his head up and turn on a spotlight.

As you can see, this is one full featured robot. I would have never forgiven myself had I missed out on this find...
