Willing to pay money for huge fighting robots?

Company MegaBots, Inc. is now trying to pick up on Kickstarter 1, 8 million dollars to realize the dream - to create a huge fighting robots. Those that were in the movie "Real Steel" or the last "Matrix". Their call Megabots.

By the way, all for 999 999 dollars, you can pick one of the robot itself.

One of the creators:

This is amazing: huge robots entering the arena and destroy each other! Blockquote>
 



These mad scientists are working on a humanoid robot height of 4, 5 meters and weighing up to seven tons. Replacement pneumatic gun - instead of hands. Each robot will manage a team of hand and the pilot.

Housings Megabotov be covered by armor plates made of special crashing in contact with paint-filled projectile flying at a speed of 120 miles per hour. The computer will calculate the number of lesions on the limbs and trunk of the robot. The more hits - the more the robot will limp, the weapon will jam. After applying a sufficient amount of damage in certain parts of the robot - it will shut down.

The company's plans - not to build a robot: the more money they will gather - the more built. Purpose: To start the first championship of fighting robots.

While on Kickstarter supplied strap in 1, 8 million dollars - this should be enough for the two robots to arrange a "Fight of the Century" between them. With plenty of copies to arrange not only death match, but other disciplines - for example, capture the flag.

The first competition is tentatively scheduled for May 2016. Personally, I would love to look at it.
