Flower bots!

Japan seems to love its robots. They have dog bots, cat bots, robots that make sushi, robot coffee shops, robocops, robot suits, dancing bots, robot women, robot nannys, robot goldfish catchers, and robot cyclists.
Even so, who would ever have imagined they would come up with a flower bot!
That seems to be exactly what Takara Toys has done with their Flower Cubes.
Flower Cubes are solar powered plastic flowers with big smiles on their faces that sway happily to and fro.
If you link multiple cubes together, they move in unison to “gently move like a “human wave” of happiness” (according to Takara’s U.S. site).

Haa.. This would be perfect to woo the chicks with.
Somebody should look into stocking these on their store. *Hint*

I can’t remember if it was sound-activated, or if it played its own music…
