Hey,
Just wanted to let anyone interested out there know that I just posted a hero-1 on ebay. It doesn't work, so I'm selling it for parts. There may be smaller items (ic's, led's) missing, but the larger items (robot arm, drive wheel, chassis) are probably still functional.

Check the ebay post for pictures, and let me know if you have any questions/comments -- Thanks.
