Incredible. Based on Judson Laipply's "Evolution of Dance Video," but way better. We get to see a robot doing Vanilla Ice's dance moves better than he did. A robot doing the "walk like an Egyptian" dance. The upcoming MechRC robot has been under development for three years and has 17 independently-controlled servos, and built-in audio. And if this video is anything to go by, when it goes on sale in the fall it should make quite a dent in the miniature robot world. [MechRC via RoboSavvy. —Thanks Limor]

Here's the Autobots' version of the famous routine, featuring Mr. Prime himself. Something tells us that if Optimus Prime wasn't real wasn't currently in another galaxy, he would destroy this video's creator. To see the original version, hit the jump.

I wonder if Optimus would crush the animator's skull brutally in his palm or opt for a more classy energy sword decapitation. [collegehumor via crunchgear]
