earlier this year, a prototype of the tosy mRobo was introduced at CES 2012. taking form of a boombox that could be transformed into a small dancing robot, the full-body device delivers signature moves in sync with different types of music, played back with its high-quality internal speaker. featured again earlier this week at the 2012 cutting-edge IT & electronics comprehensive exhibition  in japan, it drew a crowd for a unique performance complete with a michael jackson-like fedora.
