nudone:
looks like a head-crab from half-life 2, especially those big spider ones.

valve ought to buy into the project and start selling them - i'd rather have one of those running around than the robosapien.

cranioscopical:

With looks like that it needs to be unself-conscious!

I see that the iRobot people have a trial balloon for an eavestrough-cleaning robot.

Having spent most of yesterday at the top of a 30-foot ladder I'm all for some other little creep creeper taking over that task.
Sadly, I don't think it's necessarily small size would have enough mass to do a good job but one can hope.
