Only in a mall in Seoul would you stumble upon a statue like this. I don’t really have words except to say: well, we’ve all been there.

If Yamato USA’s Sexy Robot Pink Bathing Suit Statue was was actually an award, I would hate to think what it was an award for. Excellence in the field of robot porn?
Do androids dream of electric sheep? We may never know. Fortunately, neither androids nor humans have to rely on dreams for visions of this metallic beauty as Yamato USA proudly makes the fantasy world of Hajime Sorayama a reality.

Yamato USA’s Fantasy Figure Gallery, in collaboration with Jerry Macaluso’s Pop Culture Shock Collectibles, presents here one of master Sorayama’s famous “sexy robots”– anatomically correct female robots appearing to have been fashioned of molten silver. This resin statue stands approximately 22-inches tall and includes a specially designed base, as well as a removable pink fabric bathing suit, all packaged in a collector-style window box.
Removable bathing suit? Nice.

If you’ve ever wondered how Nintendo thanks its employees for 20 years of faithful service – here’s the answer. This bronze Mario was awarded to Jerry Danson, Senior Manager of Systems and Engineering. His son posted this photo on Reddit and reported that his Dad’s job consists primarily of designing, building, and operating the machines that produce the packaging for all their games. I’m sure it would have been nicer if Mario’s hand had a bonus check in it.
If I had enough money for one of those fancy home theaters like the ones you see in the homes of the super rich and nerdy, I would put this 1:1 scale R2-D2 Clone Wars figure in the lobby right next to my giant T-800.

The internet can be really great sometimes, like when it takes a rejected suggestion tweeted to Detroit Mayor David Bing about erecting a giant Robocop statue for the city and then turns it into reality.
A Kickstarter page was created to raise the money to commission the statue with private funds, and it sailed to its $50,000 base goal within a week, largely thanks to the $25,000 donation submitted by San Francisco businessman, Pete Hottelet.
But the fundraising doesn’t end there. They are continuing to take donations at detroitneedsrobocop.com until the March 29th deadline so they can make the statue “as big and good as possible”. So awesome.
The group is currently working with the Mayor’s Office to determine a location for the statue. Possible sites include Comerica Park or Imagination Station.

The new Dark Link statue from First 4 Figures looks like something you would buy, put on a shelf, then wake up the next day to find it standing on your chest—looking at you with its glowing red eyes.
The 12-inch Dark Link figure with glowing eyes and base is actually a special edition, so you can purchase an alternative version that, we can only assume, isn’t possessed by a demon. The release is limited to 500 and 2,500 with a price of $170 and $190 respectively.
Both figures are currently available for pre-order with a release date set for 3Q of 2011. Check out more images after the break.
