Looking at Joebot it’s easy to see that he is Femisapien’s, WowWee’s first female robot, new love.  He dances, is funny, has controls in his hands like Femisapien does and is WowWee’s first robot that responds to voice commands!  He also has a Battle mode where you can duel with him by using a common television infrared controller (think of it as a harmless “laser gun” instead of a remote control). 

He also can be a robotic beat box or a crisp dancer and you can show him the tempo of a song by tapping out the beat. You tap out the beat by clapping your hands in the air, loudly tapping a surface like a table, or by tapping on his body.  Like Femisapien his movements are nimble and agile instead of the clumsy and slow movements you may have seen previous humanoid toy robots perform.  If you prefer to use a standard infrared remote control instead of his hand controls you can use the remote control for the original Robosapien or use WowWee’s Roboremote universal transceiver for WowWee robots.
