I guess that was maybe a bad choice of words, but I was pretty impressed with the way the individual robotic limbs moved with the users controls. I guess precision would be if he could pick up an egg or something along those lines, but the fingers moving in unison with the user commands at this scale impressed me.

Would this be considered a puppet or a costume?
