Monster Alphabet: C is for Crow Robot

Now this is exactly what I’m talking about today when I say that the world is going to hell in a handbasket. What these kids today lack is IMAGINATION. Somebody goes to the trouble of making a crowbot, but all it really does is talk to crows. Here are some ideas:

  1. Make a crow robot army. Preferably one whose members are capable of flight. And with cruel-looking talons.
  2. Make a crowbot that can gather and command a crow army.
  3. Build a crowbot that visits mad, doomed artists, or orphans and menaces them silently from trees, or something like a sculptured bust above a chamber door.

The person who made this does get extra points for making it cool looking. And I love the hat. I would wear a hat like that. Click here for the hat: Gizmodo.
