The Push-kun (Mr. Push) robot must be an ancient ancestor of R2D2 as he gets around on crab-like legs. In addition to moving around independently, it is able to tell jokes (useful for social situations where you're an introvert), playing drum rolls on itself, tossing oversized dice as well as performing screwball antics. Robot Force from Osaka is the company behind Push-kun, and one will realize by now that this robot doesn't really have any practical use other than to wow first time visitors to your home.
