It took several months to actually get into the United States and then to home. The carrying case on this thing is actually pretty cool though, so it comes on wheels. It's like a suitcase. Okay, big reveal. It's just legs. Oh my goodness. Look at this thing. So this is its battery on the side here. This comes out just like so and I'm going to charge this thing. Let's turn it on. Oh my gosh. This thing is definitely gonna spin kick me.
