Both Trossen Robotics and Hammacher Schlemmer are now offering the “World Smallest Humanoid Robot”, I-Sobot, for an astounding $99 price tag $95.99 price tag ($99 at Hammacher). This appears to be partly due to the fact that I-Sobot is being discontinued by Tomy. For $96 this would make an excellent Christmas gift for any robot lover in your family.

I-Sobot stands about 6.5″ tall and can perform all sorts of tricks, like somersaults, martial arts, push ups and is fully controlled via an IR remote control. Various movements can be sequend together to create complex motion patterns. I-Sobot also reponds to voice commands.

Times are tough, why not splurge a little? Video of I-Sobot in action after the break.

Trossen is out of stock right now, but they tell me they have a shipment coming in soon.
