I saw one of these in a store today. Had to resist the urge to pointing at it dramatically and say, wide eyed, "QUUUUUUUAB!" to the nearest shopper. |

See, those are the times when you just really need a fellow Uru nerd close at hand.

I dunno... sometimes that can be dangerous...
I saw the Robo-Quab at a store in the mall on Friday, and I told my wife (NOT and Uru-phile), "I have to kick it into the fountain... i HAVE to!!"
She calmly told me that I didn't HAVE to, and eventually got me to walk away with no quabs in the water.
I would think that if I had an URU nerd with me, they'd be right there helping me kick all the robo-quabs into the fountain, then the cops would come and things would get odd... "but officer...we have to get all the quabs in the water before we link out so we can turn the spheres!"
We'd be sitting in jail, probably in straitjackets, but we'd have accomplished our goal.
So... yeah. The robo-quabs are quite teh awesome, tho. _________________ KI 182798
