We tried to contact these companies last year about selling them on in RoboSavvy's store but both companies were not happy to export their robots without propper translated documentation and international support infrastructure.
This is understandable but on the other hand it's not that these humanoids sell like Robosapien (2.5m units) so if i were them i'd be happy with stores that want to stock my stuff even if they are on Mars.
KHR-1, which is the most popular model, sold only 3500 units mostly in Japan and the price is comparable with Robovie but much nicer looking and has lots of aftermarket support so why would anyone buy a Robovie beats me? Pirkus is more advanced but costs much more..
We'll probably see more humanoid models in the US market before the end of the year.
