WeÂ’ve spotted Elvis! His head and shoulders, that is, singing his resurrected heart out at a CES preview event here in Vegas. To follow up their wildly successful Robosapien and Roboraptor, Hong-Kong-based WowWee Ltd. is releasing an animatronic Elvis bust. And in the his likeness and movements, including the trademark pompadour, facial tics and comeback tour-era leather duds, are licensed by Elvis Presley Enterprises. The WowWee Alive Elvis costs $349, belts out 8 actual Elvis songs, tells stories about Elvis's life, and generally looks and acts like a dislocated chunk of the long-lost King. It also has a karaoke mode, where heÂ’ll sing along as you try your own renditions of his classic tunes. Or, if you attach an mp3 player and croon away to a song it doesnÂ’t know, itÂ’ll politely bop along to the beat. |
