Japanese Iron Man Suit for Sale

With a bare-bones sticker price of $1.3 million, Suidobashi Heavy Industry will build you a high-tech, robotic suit that might even make Tony Stark a little nervous.

Suidobashi’s Kuratas robot stands 13-feet tall and weighs about 6 tons. It comes standard with a leather seat and a “next-generation” V-Sido robot operating system, which allows the pilot to move the this gigantic bot’s arms and drive it around at a speed of six miles per hour. Weapon systems such a pair of BB-firing mini guns cost extra (Click below to see the super suhweet video).

The diesel-powered Kuratas can also be controlled remotely through a 3G network.

The Japanese company’s website displays videos and sophisticated-looking graphics of the Kuratas robot but unfortunately lacks a lot of detailed info.

Either way, we here at Defense Tech think it would make a nice addition to the office.

    It’s not the Gundam RX78/2, but it’s a start.

    IT won’t outrun a cruise missile, but it sure could beat the school bully to a pulp.
