KFC Bucket Bae

The KFC Bucket Bae is essentially a bot with the chicken bucket on top, popcorn chicken bouquet on the left and a cup of krushers on the right. Just below the bucket, there's a Bluetooth speaker you can pair with your phone and play music. As mentioned above, the KFC Bucket Bae comes with wheels and it can follow you around.

The chicken bucket also come with pre-recorded messages like "love you bucket loads", "you have the secret recipe to my heart", and "bae's got you the perfect takeaway". The KFC Bucket Bae's heart-shaped eyes also light up once it's turned on.

The wheels on KFC Bucket Bae aren't optimised for carpeted floors. You have an infrared transmitter for the KFC Bucket Bae to follow you around. The transmitter, however, wasn't very accurate. During our demonstration, it kept banging on the walls and would often stop in between. Wheels on the KFC Bucket Bae are quite loud when the device is moving around.

Overall, the KFC Bucket Bae robot is fun to use but too bad it's limited edition.
