The Green Head - Alive Chimpanzee by WowWee - Animatronic Life-Size Bust with Video

Alive Chimpanzee by WowWee - Animatronic Life-Size Bust with Video

I just came across the coolest and creepiest state-of-the-art, fully-animated, lifelike, robotic chimpanzee head ever! I absolutely must get one of these for my desk at work.

The Alive Chimpanzee ($90) by WowWee is the first in a new line of animatronic animal heads that are stunningly realistic. The 11" bust looks, feels, sounds and behaves just like a real "Alive" Chimpanzee and is fully interactive and multi-sensory to its surroundings. Best of all, it has a "Guard Mode" for when someone comes into your office to swipe something of yours. Imagine their reaction when a seemingly dismembered creepy chimp head starts screeching and swinging his head back and forth right on your desk. This thing is beyond Awesome, Creepy and Cool! - ( 35)

► Amazon.com ($90)

► Find it on eBay

Amazing "Alive" Chimpanzee is a fully animated, life-size bust of the real animal.
"Alive" Chimpanzee can see, hear and feel in ways that allow him to interact intelligently with you, your family, your guests...and with baffled strangers.
Soulful eyes track movements using infrared "radar" vision; his ears have stereoscopic sound sensors; his skin reacts to contact with touch sensors all around.
Four distinctive emotional moods include "Curious," "Happy," "Fearful" and "Feisty."
Override his "natural" autonomous mode by using the wireless controller to communicate specific commands as far as 30 feet away.

OMG! That thing is scary! I’d be afraid to have it in my house let alone on my desk at work.

I would put that in someone’s bed, so they would wake up next to a screeching monkey head.

Must resist buying…

I’d put it on Ebay. It’s nice, but judging from the video, it still needs development. The eyes didn’t move enough at all. Over all motion too jerky still.

I would want this item as it is a historical collectible product. I have never ever seen anything like it in the market!

The purpose of the “Alive Chimpanzee” is to flip out and kill people! “Alive Chimpanzees” kill people ALL OF THE TIME.

Could this be the hot Christmas Gift of 2005? I’ll take one of these over the XBox360 anyday!

OK My monkey Just came in, so hrere is my review:
scale of 1-10
Looks 7 does not look as good as the lager pictures

Movement 4 like a robot and a loud motor.

sound 9.5 he sounds very real

Over all he is a very toy however i bought him for my office but is way to loud and playfull so i will be taking him home. But for the price you cant beat it however i just have this feeling that he will break after not time at all.

It’s just begging to be hacked.. Jeepers, the insult Chimp or something..

I could own a decapitated monkey head! Thank you God… Seriously, I am buying one because I want to support this kind of freak-technology and see where it eventually leads…This is the coolest thing ever!

So if it misbehaves, do you spank the monkey?

by Anonymous on November 29, 2005 1:05 pm

This is so cool! I am going to Sharper Image after work to pick mine up. I hope my dog doesn’t try to kill it.

by Anonymous on December 2, 2005 9:41 am

This is not a monkey, so remember not to spank it.

The little guy needs to stay in garage to ward off potential thieves and nosy people in general. A video camera would be a good companion to record intruders shitting their pants!

I’m going to put it in my tiki bar!!!! Seems like there’s no better way to have fun/freak out guests. And (hopefully) the motion sensor will catch teenagers who are a little too curious about the colorful bottles…

by Lou the Hammer on December 22, 2005 12:15 am

Y’know, I’m picturing this thing in one of those organ-transport coolers, with some real ice and circulating liquid in fish-tank tubing, hurrying through an airport terminal to catch a . . . wait, ummm . . . not a flight from Columbia to Miami. No. Bad. Think . . .

Dudes! That’s it! I’m taking this thing on my next Saudi trip, strapped to the top of the lead Humvee. Sweet! Too bad it doesn’t come in a porcine version.

You think that's scary. The guys at PopSci ripped the skin off the head, added some lighting effects and came up with a cool Halloween prop.

Got one for Christmas cause I had to give my live puppy away because I was too sick to take care of it. This is almost as good...I don't have to feed it or clean up it's poop and it acts real and shows emotion. I love it.
