This is the latest project put together by Suidobashi Heavy Industries. A 4.4 ton Kuratas. It's a Mobile Suit made up by artist Kogoro Kurata and robotics expert Wataru Yoshizaki for the robot frame. It has a place to house one pilot on the inside. Like Gundam?

The mech's touchscreen UI includes a Kinect based movement interface and even has "smile-activated" twin BB gatling guns. You can also customize it in a color of your choosing. It's all good, except when you see the price. It'll cost a cool $1.35 million and it doesn't include other customization options like a faux leather interior, cup holder or phone bubby.
