The biggest problem will be mobility, probably why there was nothing below the torso at Comic Con. Move arms and a torso, can do. A machine that runs and dives behind cover, not so much. Treads or wheels will probably be the end result, to the dismay of many. But it will still be better than the clunky, barely able to walk 2-legged machines that are top of the line today (al la Robot Combat League if anyone else watched). Just look up robots playing soccer to understand what I mean....

Still, robots! Hoping for good results.
