Earlier today Kondo announced that they have been working on a new biped kit as a successor to the popular KHR-1, the aptly named KHR-2HV.

This looks to be quite a nice package in comparison its precursor which some found a bit clunky and more difficult o modify compared to newer bipeds. Regardless, I vow to post a report as soon as I get my hands on one.
