What is it about Tenga that seems to inspire Japanese people to make robots?
About a year ago a minor meme on the Japanese Twittersphere involved posting self-created visions of a meccha robot that could transform into a Tenga onacup.
That was apparently (and bizarrely) related to Valentine’s Day. White Day (where the men give women gifts in Japan) saw a new meme, this time mecha robots inspired by the Iroha vibrator.
Now for 2016 along comes @ZMD11S, who hasn’t simply drawn or planned a Tenga robot model: he (we are assuming he’s male) has built one!
Sadly it’s not an actual working robot but this is still one mighty impressive model. It’s a customized Gundam model, integrated with a Tenga.
“Masturbation Suit Gundam”, as it was dubbed by Kotaku in January.
The boffins say the Tenga mecha is technically a MSN-00100 Hyaku Shiki.
The only question remains: can this robot jerk you off?
