Airrobot Ltd. in Korea, has just started selling RINGO robots in Korea on their online store, Toymart.co.kr, for 290,000 won, equal to about $290 USD. They might ship it to the US if you can pay for shipping…
Lol, maybe I can start selling these on Zedomax.com like hotcakes…
Update: You can pre-order one right now, but you won’t get them till end of this month.
Good thing I can read Korean, here’s some specs:
RINGO robot is basically a riding robot for kids age of 3 to 7 years old. The RINGBO can travel at about 2 to 2.5 kilometers per hour. (Not too bad for a kid’s toy)
The RINGBO features a obstacle-detecting sensors to alert the child in case your kid decides to run into a wall. The RINGBO can also turn full 360 degrees while in idle position.
For dealer information you can contact their headquarters here:
+82 2-558-5155
I don’t know if they speak English but they probably do so… good luck.
Looks like a cool robot I wish I had when i was a kid. It looks like some kids will probably do some bumper-car smashing soon.
