Actually, I think they all look pretty funky!! :wow:

But my picks would be 2 or 7, since they both look

B01 will keep the space aliens away! The world needs an eye toward space! lol

I wonder where they found rubber bands large enough to make B11?

B13 looks like a giant take-out box with folding top. It'll keep the honey walnut prawns fresh for leftovers. :wink:

Didn't I see a commercial for B12? Filled with helium the kids will have fun tossing that around the yard! :^^:

B08 looks like something you use while you're in the hospital. B10 looks like George Jetson's workdesk. B11 looks like an alien flower from Half-Life. B01 looks like...uh...well you know.

How about that. Yes I know.

The Three Laws of Robotics:
1. A robot may not injure a human being, or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey the orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.

Well, whatever you do - DON'T play with him. Could cause major flooding. Image
I think I'm partial to the B08 design. It seems to be the most functional and the most pleasing to the eye, from all the angles given.
I'm also very interested in B12's "suspending retractable roof" and how exactly they intend to pull that off. :?
