We love all our geek toys but, this got our attention, the moment we saw it.

It's a Japanese, Karakuri Mechanical Doll of the Flourishing Edo period or more precisely a  mechanical doll restored based on the book written in the Edo period (for those who don't know the Japanese Edo period was from the years 1603 to 1867). The doll carries tea to a customer and lowers the tea onto the a teacup. No batteries, purely mechanical.

No wonder then Japanese invented the Walkman and all the coolest gadgets. This one is for sale in Japan for 5900 Yen.
