The Black Vinegar Robot looks like the gender confused bastard child of Darth Vader and The Iron Giant. Wait, it gets weirder. The robot has been designed to serve Tamanoi (Japanese Vinegar) to guests, or more probably to orchestrate a battle in the nether regions of space.
The upper body of the robot moves in 24 places with the help of air cylinders. The special black paint (Majiora) on the robot, changes color depending on the angle at which it is seen. The robot was created to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Tamanoi Corporation.
