Giant Crane that looks like a Toy

At first glance this giant crane looks like it has been constructed using LEGO blocks but a closer look at the specs indicates that each arm can lift 100kg! This is no toy. Someone needs to hook up a Wiimote to it though. :)

"Tadano says Robotops is the first four-legged, two-armed crane available. Information from Tadano says Robotops has 29 joints on the hands, arms, legs, shoulders and hips, and is equipped with three CCD video cameras for monitoring the crane’s movements. Each hand is capable of lifting 100kg."

    That should be entered into one of those robot fighting challenges. It could simply pick up and bodyslam the competition!
