Footage of eighth version of "Transformer" robot shows transformation sequence, movement in both forms

Kenji Ishida of Japan's JS Robotics has posted a video of his "Transformer Version 8," a radio-controlled robot that can not only transform between humanoid and car-shaped forms, but can also perform a variety of actions in both forms. The end of the video suggests that a Version 9 is in development.
