HAL 9000 Life-Size Replica

The HAL 9000 Life-Size Replica by ThinkGeek is an impressively accurate, voice-activated recreation of HAL 9000, the AI computer villain from the 1968 sci-fi film 2001: A Space Odyssey. It is available to purchase online. This replica is based on the actual studio blueprints, for exactly perfection (even down to the original studio files for the HAL 9000 label). The HAL 9000 Life-Size Replica features a custom-ground replica, with a sticker of the writing on the Nikkor lens (in case you want your HAL to be accurate down to the close-ups). But wait, there’s so much more. Of course the HAL 9000 Life-Size Replica has a red LED eye. And of course he talks (one of 15 movie quotes, randomly cycled through). But get this: HAL 9000 also responds to your voice. That’s right, say something to HAL longer than 1.2 seconds, and it’ll activate a sound clip. OR, point almost any IR remote at him and press a button for a sound clip. (laughingsquid)
