Japan National Insititute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST) released a humanoid female robot, HRP (Human Robot Prototype) 4C. This is the Fashion world's first robot and she showed off her stormtrooper-like silver and black frame and bowed to a fashion-savvy audience at the start of the annual Japan Fashion Week in Tokyo in March.
The 5 ft 2 inch cybernetic human weighs 43 kg and sells for $200,000.
The HRP-4C humanoid robot bows on the runway at the Shinmai Creator's Project fashion show. When are we going to have male robots among the audience and making catcalls ? ;-)

It looks very cool, I wonder what are the capabilities and the maintenance of the she-robot.
