Coca-Cola Vending Machine Robot in Japan

Photo from sanchome on Flickr.
The only thing better than a regular robot is one that doubles as a Coca-Cola vending machine with scorpion-like pincher hands. The logistics are unclear—does it really vend cola cans? Is there a person tall and strong enough to wear this bulky suit? File this under times I wish I was a Japanese school girl outside Shibuya Station in Tokyo to see this weirdness walk by.

Glad it's not one of the old style Coke vending machines in a suit. Would hate to hear some guy yelping, "Stop pulling that, it's not a Coke bottle!"
Amusing picture and love the look on the girl's face. :)
