So today I was in the "Futuroscope" a theme park in France near where my parents live. The park is full of 3D cinemas, dynamic cinemas, and animations around the future, etc...


Then there was a place with many pics of robots, and one robot made me immediately stop, I had to take a pic !

the exact same robot that is used during Under the Influence on the new tour visuals !


I wonder where it comes from originally.

i actually have the yellow new IDM robot and the small silver one. Haven't found the green one yet and the "Space Man Walk Robot" is quite expensive.

I've got some pictures of them which i was trying to do something artistic with them but gace up. They like to sit up above my decks.

That's sick... I never knew they were actual models. I thought they were only animations.

There's a shop at a mall near where I live called Puzzle Zoo, and it's a really great toy store! They have everything from old collectible Star Wars toys worth hundreds to Silly Putty to a chess set all done up like Aliens. Truly cool toys all around. Added bonus is they have the green and yellow-orange robots, too. They're about 6 or 8 inches high. They're tin toys, and they aren't very expensive they are about $15 to $20 each. They have other robots too but the bright green and yellow ones stick out in my mind the most.

I think Irish had the videos of Do it Again and Saturae visuals somewhere. Maybe he's got Under the influence too
