I want one.   This is closer to Ironman that what the US military came up with as an Exoskeleton.   The big dog is impressive as far as full on robots goes though.   It can walk on ice and all, but it is a quadroped.

You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.
