At a price of about $930 an hour，people can rent the machines for children's birthday parties and other events. The company has created robots of all sizes. There is the almost 3.5­meter­tall Landwalker，the smaller Kids' Walker Cyclops，and the MechBoxer boxing(拳击) machine.But the Mononofu stands above them all. It also does more complex movements. It can move its fingers and turn its upper body，and walk forward and backward.However，it moves very slowlyat a speed of less than one kilometer per hour. Although it may be slow，the Mononofu is very powerful. The air gun on its right arm shoots(发射) balls of soft material at 140 kilometers per hour.“As an animation­inspired robot that one can ride，I think this is the biggest in the world，”Nagumo said.But Mononofu might be a bit too large.
