Yeah we had three 2-4 year olds with us who were very excited about it all, then he came to life and they clung to us for dear life, but quickly got back into it and were dancing and smiling.


Unfortunately I didn't get to take a snap.


TR, you might need to compress the picture first. try something like this http://www.shrinkpictures.com/ or do it on paint, photoshop et al.

We thought it was absolutely brilliant . So realistic .

My little one excitedly told his nan that there was a decepticon from transformers in the park .

Loved the crowds of people following the robot everywhere with their children either clinging in fear or awe of the robot .

Its been all over the world. I believe there is 3 of them now. Very heavy and hot outfit for sure. My daughter loved it, waited for ages with excitement to see it. Stood for 8 minutes filming only for my iPhone to corrupt the file, not impressed. Spent the rest of the day being forced to watch various youtube videos instead.


The creator is from Cornwall, he was originally a panel sprayer in a garage but had bigger ambitions. It cost him ?30,000 to make the first outfit, considering he supposedly rents the things out at ?1,500 for 2 x 30 minute shows he's earning a LOT of money. Its been to every continent, starred in adverts and TV shows, award shows, on tour with singers, you name it. First appearance was 2010.

HOW much???


?1500 for an hour??? You could get Debbie Harry for that!!!

    • London doesn’t have a lot of Argentinian places specialising in empanadas, which suggests demand isn’t that great. There are many neighbourhoods with none at all or even nearby.  So for a mini-chain like Chango (several branches in SW London) to open here where there’s already a well established family run place doing the same feels a bit off.  I’ll be giving Chacarero my ongoing custom. 
    • This is so helpful, everyone, thank you. @green bean Yes we have just (as of yesterday) installed the same external blinds you mention! We already had blackout blinds and we now have the external awnings too. Of course that will guarantee the end of the summer sunshine but I can see that they're going to be helpful as they let the light through but not the glare of the sun - I'm fed up of working in darkness with both the blackout blinds closed on sunny days. We'll see how we go with those for a bit but I reckon we'll get a couple of quotes from the other recommendations in case we end up going the whole hog. @penfold Love the idea of getting solar+batteries to offset the electricity usage so will look into that.  Thanks, all.
    • Yes Sally, I've emailed him several times since Xmas. I don't contact Councillors frequently but when I've done so over the years, I've found them generally engaged and responsive. It's unprecedented to just be ignored and, regardless of the query I'm raising, that's worrying from the point of view of  our local democratic voice. Its a Councillors role to represent local people! A different thread on here made reference to a lack of response from one of our ward councillors and, since there are only two, I'm guessing it's the same one. I'm following up my own concern separately but I'm asking on here about whether others have had the same problem. I'd like to think it's a one-off but, increasingly, I suspect it's not. Hope that gives a bit more context!
