50 foot Michael Jackon Robot to roam Las Vegas desert

Oh did I mention the part about lasers shooting out of its eyes? No this is not a plot from South Park. That was Barbra Streisand and Robert Smith. Sadly this is not just a cartoon.

If built, the metal monster would apparently be visible to aircraft as they come in to land in the casino capital.

It is the centerpiece of an elaborate Jackson-inspired show in Vegas, according to Andre Van Pier, the robot's designer.

Luckman Van Pier, his partner at the company behind the proposal, claims blueprints have been drawn up for the show and seen by the star.

"Michael's looked at the sketches and likes them," he told the New York Daily News.

On the subject of the robot, he continued: "It would be in the desert sands. Laser beams would shoot out of it so it would be the first thing people flying in would see."

As absolutely retarded as this sounds I do have to admit a bit of envy. A giant robot in my image smashing building along the Las Vegas strip would be kinda cool. There is no word on the creation of little children robots for the MJ robot's amusement.
