Quote:
Michael Jackson is in discussions about creating a 50-foot robotic replica of himself to roam the Las Vegas desert, according to reports. .

The pop legend is currently understood to be living in the city, as he considers making a comeback after 2004's turbulent child sex case.

It has now been claimed that his plans include an elaborate show in Vegas, which would feature the giant Jacko striding around the desert, firing laser beams.

If built, the metal monster would apparently be visible to aircraft as they come in to land in the casino capital.

It is the centre-piece of an elaborate Jackson-inspired show in Vegas, according to Andre Van Pier, the robot's designer.

Luckman Van Pier, his partner at the company behind the proposal, claims blueprints have been drawn-up for the show and seen by the star.

"Michael's looked at the sketches and likes them", he told the New York Daily News.

On the subject of the robot, he continued: "It would be in the desert sands. Laser beams would shoot out of it so it would be the first thing people flying in would see."

My days of not taking you seriously have certainly come to a middle.

It certainly would be par for the course for Jacko.

My only concern is that this is part one in his plan for world domination. Seriously, don't evil geniuses usually start by creating giant robots or likenesses of themselves? And this is both.

Let's keep him away from the kryptonite, please.

I want it to be a real robot. And make it amble around aimlessly. Hell, get DARPA to finance it if need be.

Unfortunately I think the Michael-Jackson-bot would be more interested in wrestling with Minilla.

Are you kidding?!

AstroBoy going one-on-one with Michael Jacktron would be f'ing amazing - I'd pay to see it!

It's the 'roaming' part that puts it over the top for me. Does it go where it likes? How does it know when to turn around? Does it roam with purpose, or just sort of amble aimlessly? Is there a little person inside? Or does Jacko himself fit into the chest cavity? It could be the first step towards a world of mechs... mechs more fabulous than we ever considered.

Yeah, the roaming part is kind of scary. What if it steps on someone?

And will it be a man or a woman? Will it have chainsaw hands? Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!

And what if it unleashes the Moonwalk into a nearby building? I'd like to see the insurance claim form for that one...

Be great if the robot was dressed in his Thriller zombie costume. Maybe have it programmed to do the dance even. (Irongut starts shuffling at his desk)

Are we talking about Michael Mechs or are we talking about the human condition?

I keep giggling at that response. At first I thought it couldn't apply to the 'little person' comment, but then I remembered the homonculus.
