A $20,000 “Power Loader” for Children

Remember that scene in Aliens when Ripley gets into that power loader and says, “Get away from her you bitch!” to the alien (which was echoed by Mrs. Weasley in Harry Potter many years later)? A Japanese company has created a power loader-like robot for children that retails for about $20,000.
