Hope this goes to an owner that wants to keep it alive. Anyone here want to throw in some money for some bids?

I got 20$!:o

If not kept alive then hopefully a museum, I don't want to see someone buy it and thrash it.

Yea just seen a clip of it on speed, speed started there 39 hours of coverage tonight... that's a bit over kill lol

hey dino...$20 might get it...theres no reserve on anything..


but all kidding aside, I hope the owner gets good money for it, and robosorus lives on, beacuse it is imo...the greatist "robot" out there.


It started today and right now on t.v there on lot 42, so I'd expect to see it not get sold untill Saturday or Sunday, wish I knew what time it was gonna be approx, so I could tune in and see how it sells.

It will go on Saturday. I imagine that it will be televised. It will be one of the last 50 or so to go on the day.

We actually marked it on our calendar about 2 weeks ago... i am sure who ever buys it will take good care of it. The people that buy stuff on Barrett jackson are pretty serious.

i think a promoter would want to buy it.. and so then that only leaves one promoter with pockets that deep... but we will see~

i am glad that we got to see it though, what a site robosaurus is!

people that are at barrett jackson are going to be pretty serious about what they are buying and have something in mind when they bid on something like that. im sure it will go to a good home.

when i seen Robosaurus it was at the Terre Haute, IN airshow. Funny how we arnt even into airshows but we heard he was going to be there and so we HAD to go.

I dont remember who the promoter was...

anyhow robosaurus just stayed "sleeping" and i know we werent the only ones watching the clock to see when it would be time for him to wake up...

& when he did- it was awesome... i havent seen anything like it in the world. I am sure that if you didnt know what was about to happen it would have looked like something bad because no matter where people were at on the airports property, when Robosaurus began to move people started RUNNING!

The entire crowd stopped what they were doing and ran over to see it. It was completely insane. Rob picked up Adam and started running as fast as he can... i can only compare it to the movies when people run away from bad things... and here we were running towards this huge monster!!

Robosaurus is my favorite!!! i wish i could buy him.. man, that would be a great way to get back at everyone that ticks you off!!!!!

Robosaurous would be the ultimate punishment for parking violations. Especally if you do not hav ea handicap sticker and you park in a handicap space.
