im still deciding ..... the money man... 300 a month...  doh.gif
Wait they sell plastic model kit too  hmm.gif ...maybe got money then can invest of the parts.... like servo and the PCBA
I was offered 30% off and allowed to complete in half the time. biggrin.gif BUT that means spending a lot more within that same period!

RM 5.5k over 70 weeks is RM 78 per week.
RM 3.5k over 35 weeks is RM 100 per week.

That comes to about RM 400 per month instead of RM 300. sad.gif

now we all have the verdict... too expensive for a robot, my mom ask me to buy it and i ask her why... her reply was epic, 'ask the robot to do house work of course.' yeah if it can do more than walking and talking and act cute, i might consider robi.... else its just waste of time....

So how do you find the investment on Robi ? Is it worth it ?
Because i found that robi can only do certain thing which i find it cute and bubbly but paying for over like 5K for few action seem not justify the money plus i predict after sometime it would in the shelf collecting dust unless robi have weekly or monthly firmware upgrade that do little more then currently stock robi action can.... laugh.gif

Still holding on to my grudge, though i love to have Robi.... sweat.gif

I can't say yes or no because it depends on priority.

If you have nothing else better to spend on and don't mind 70 weeks wait (and actually enjoy the process), and not forgetting being one who appreciates the technology - go ahead.

I for one, do have better things to spend on but I have no recommendation of any better alternative.

As one who spends time to build stuff, I don't like to wait 70 weeks to build a robot. tongue.gif Too long, really too long.
