Japanese Robotic Butterfly

I’m loving this concept. To all appearances, it looks like you have captured a butterfly in a glass jar. It responds to touch and sound, flitting around the inside on the jar.
Cruel perhaps unless it wasn’t a beautifully realised idea. 3 AA batteries are hidden inside the lid and the butterfly is attached by some kind of wire that responds to vibrations and sound.

Quite eerie really.

$79 and it’s yours, shipping September the 1st.
