That thing just doesn't look natural. Pretty cool that it can run 18mph, though, I'll give them that. It will be interesting to see if this project ever leaves the ground and see's deployment.

The way it runs reminds me more of an elk or a mountain goat.

Well, one RPG to any part of it would have the same effect, I imagine.

Next thing you know it's going to hit puberty and try to mate with mechanical spiders.
