Figure sends old robots for smelting

Figure sent its previous-generation robots for smelting after launching the Figure 03 model. Disassembling the machines one by one proved too costly, so the developers sought advice from their audience.

Arnold Schwarzenegger suggested melting down the outdated humanoids in the comments. The company implemented this idea, sending a batch of robots to Finland for recycling.

The robots were submerged in molten steel with a raised thumb, a nod to the movie "Terminator". The resulting metal will be used to create a limited edition collection.
