Yeah, I was wondering what design reasons they had for
reversing the legs... Look at a moose--his front legs bend
forward, and his rear legs bend backward. But this weird
robot has legs that both bend inward... Why?

So it can easily walk in either direction.

both bend in - this weird robot
or both bend out - real animals
How is one better for going both directions than the other?

Pwned!!!
After they install the "combat techniques" module, it's gonna rock!
It'll be up on it's hind (wait, which are hind?) legs and do donkey
kicks!
