Fire-breathing, car-eating Robosaurus to be sold at Barrett-Jackson
Well, it's official. If it has wheels, Craig Jackson and Steve Davis will let you sell it at the Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, Arizona. The item in question is none other than Robosaurus, the forty-foot tall transforming robot dinosaur that breathes fire and enjoys snacking on Grand Ams. We don't doubt that it'll attract a flurry of attention during primetime, and that some deep-pocketed bidder will throw money at it. What would make it the best Barrett-Jackson auction ever is if Robosaurus went crazy and started eating some of the big-dollar garage queens on live television.
Video of Robosaurus doing his thing after the jump.
Thanks for the tip, Myk!

I would love to see Barrett Jackson buy it, and them crush very repli-fake (Z28, Bel-Air, Shelby, Daytona Spider, Veloce/Abnormale) that tries to enter the auction.
Priceless

They've really got something against the cable company.

Something that might be of interest... The second-to-latest issue of Intersection Magazine had a fashion shoot with the Robosaurus. Take a look here and scroll to the right a bit. It's a pretty awesome shoot.

I think you meant to write, "Craig" Jackson.

Please eat all the Hyundais in the world. They simply copy the designs off other car manufacturers!
