Fantastic work as always Candy, love your stuff
'Ill have to make some more now, yes I can do a built thread in here I suppose.
I hope the listings state batteries not included. Very good!
Very impressive, you are obviously talented! What do you do for a living?
These are fantastic, please do make some more! My little brother has always wanted a dog but can't due to a few circumstances, so that little guy is perfect, thank you! Shall look forward to receiving it.
I am only getting the last image?
If you're making more of those robots I'd quite like one like the first one.
They look great, if anything I'd say your prices are a bit low as I imagine it takes a long time to make / clean / list / ship.
Not sure if you've ever seen Money for nothing on BBC1 but there's a guy on there who does stuff like this and sells it for pretty good money: http://www.gizmobots.co.uk/
They always say that they have an electrician test everything though, not sure if that applies to low voltage LED lighting
You should make a store on Etsy, they have cheaper fee's than eBay and the buyers will pay a bit more. Not as big a market but its growing.
Im sticking to battery powered as I thought selling things that plug into the mains could be a minefield! As it is they run off 2 x AA or AAA's which im hoping will keep me out of trouble.
I keep a close eye on the time im working on things and price accordingly, thats why the rocket man turned out so expensive. Although it would be half the price without the lights, the wiring took way longer than I expected.

It is pretty scary when you work out how much you have to charge when making things yourself, can understand why production for most things gets shipped out to China . They do look awesome though, I'd put the dogs on Etsy for £50 and see who bites. Depends what you want from it really but I'm often surprised by what people will pay for things and its always easier to come down in price than go up
I've looked at lighting safety implications for a project I'm working on myself but I'm still not sure where you stand with modifying low voltage electronics (5v) so I've just tried to keep all the LED lighting as is with no modifications. Electronics just seems to be a minefield of potential liability
