Woohoo space rovers! Woohoo toys that inspire people to engineer things with their hands! Woohoo the special nerd-squee of crossovers!

I know! I couldn't resist taking a pic!
IIUC the wheel system on the bigger robot is a real prototype, but the body and head are just a mock-up.

That must have been very exciting for Lego Rover. I hope it didn't go all fanboyish, and embarrass itself by squeeing too much.
