If the man in your house is lacking some qualities that you value essential for a happy life together, you may want to replace him. You could choose a goldfish, which is very low maintenance.

Or perhaps you'd like a replacement that does as you instruct, when you instruct it to - without argument, but can also make you laugh too. For that, we recommend Homersapien.

Homersapien is based on the hugely successful Robosapien robot - developed by NASA scientist Mark Tilden. Homersapien can pick up, throw, and kick objects, and will even dance around the room. He walks and moves at two different speeds with fluid, slick movements going where you want him to, when you direct him using the Simpson's style remote control. And is even programmed with Kung Fu moves.

Naturally, he will also emit Homer catchphrases, belching, snoring and 'Doh!'-ing when it pleases him. (Yes. Not altogether dissimilar from the original male of the household).

According to some sources, Homersapien also boasts a selection of 28 secret movements that users will unlock as they explore the remote control and the robot itself
