That's about it. Novelty chocolate in the form of a functioning robot. I've made chocolate sculptures and the stuff can be fairly strong. Mass produce some hard candy gears and other workings, add a few motors, a battery, and a non-chocolate chip to control it all.

Hm. If you're mixing edible things with non-edible parts small enough to swallow, how will you prevent the inedible parts from making their way down the throat of the occasional toddler or drunk adult? |

hi [worldgineer]. Let's work together. You make the choco-bots and bolts for my chocobot. |
|
| |
Keeo out of the reach of diabetic/gluton/fat children. |
|
| |
No, actually, keep out of my reach. |
|
| |
Actually, I like this. I love chocolate. |
|
| |
I suspect that the motor and non-chocolate chip could be put into one plastic package that is too big to swallow. |
|
| |
The sad part is that people would probably be reluctant to actually eat the robot, but by the time it broke, it wouldn't be fit to eat. |
|

[scad] has the idea on the parts. I'm thinking of a plastic device with four sections that turn. Though I have no idea what you're talking about when you say that someone wouldn't eat chocolate in time. Really, I don't think I've ever met anyone like that. |

[django] Deal. As long as your chocobot makes the chocolate for my choco-bot. With self-replicating chocolate technology we can conquer the world. |
|
| |
Great fun until the chocolate melts and the robot is destroyed by its own shoddy structure |
|
| |
But that's the great finale of fun. |

Mom, I can't catch my Easter bunny. |

It's very sad. World always has the best ideas. + |

I like the idea of an edible robot. you could release a bunch of them in the woods and go hunting for them with with lasers that would activate a dramatic or violent death sequence when you shoot them. |
