I would also buy one of these if they were for sale and had voices. Though I would much prefer the Curious Core from Portal 1.

"Oooo... that thing has numbers on it!"

I saw "robotics engineer" and thought these would be really special. I mean sure they're pretty cool, but I kinda expected more.

Shame the space core is red instead of orange. I would buy the Wheatly orb if it could talk, though.

When I read "robotics engineer" I sorta expected them to move around a bit, maybe even have some lines of dialogue, but alas they don't.

Still, they look amazingly accurate, even including the slightly worn look. Very impressive indeed. Valve; reel this guy in. I'd buy one, that's for sure.

Will people please stop making merchandise for my favorite games that I just HAVE to have. Some of us have to spend money on food y'know!

I think this man could literally make more money than Valve did by selling Portal 2, if he were to individually auction each of these off to they're Highest bidders.

Unfortunately, Myles says that he isn't interested in selling the cores and he isn't interested in making any more of them, so we can only look on in admiration at their fine craftsmanship. There are more images of the cores on Myles' Flickr [http://www.flickr.com/photos/ammnra/5720642774/in/set-72157626669964230 ] page, where you can see how detailed they really are.
Everyone saying that Valve should buy them off him, or that this guy should mass produce them...can you not appreciate that he made them just to make them?

I'd love to have one of these just to take around with me for no reason, would also be awesome to have the set next to my computer.
