Sakakibara Kikai is some Japanese company that has built the coolest giant two-legged, one-manned attack transport robot called the Land Walker. This thing looks like the AT-ST Imperial Scout Walker straight out of Star Wars or the Power Loader that Ripley used to take out the Queen Alien in Aliens or even the ED-209 in Robocop.
As it is now though, the Land Walker only fires squishy balls and doesn't exactly walk (it sorta rolls), but it could have real potential in the right hands. I want this thing patrolling the grounds of Green Head Headquarters in the near future!
