Hello Robo
Between the Japanese cartoon cat icons Doraemon and Hello Kitty, while it was Doraemon who was a robot in the story it is Hello Kitty who is becoming a robot in real life. According to an article from the Kyodo news service a robotic Hello Kitty with face-recognition capabilities will be on sale later this year for around 400,000 yen (~US$3,700).
