Duh Bluey looked like a guy in a clown suit... probably because he worked too perfectly? And they dress up robots because the eventual goal for these kind of things is to make them look more human. good ole Bluey… Duh Bluey looked like a guy in a clown suit… probably because he worked too perfectly?

It's hard to take you or your project seriously when there is dress-up involved. Let the wires, servos and electronics hang out, because THAT is what makes a robot cool and projects interesting. Cover it up with some silly material, and you just screwed yourself out of a lot of respect. this would be cool IF he DIDN’T dress the freggin’ robot up like a DOLL! why must everyone strip the coolness away from robots and make them look silly?
