What a shame
Until I see it moving realistically without the cart holding it up, I'm disappointed. Robot legs that keep a robot upright are impressive, robot legs that drag themselves across the ground are not.

I was thinking that the cart simulates the balance that the upper body would provide.
These aren't meant to stand up on their own ya know, I'm not even sure real legs could do that without the upper body.

That depends if the androids are sentient. If they're just worker machines, then who cares?
