Question, does the robot need to have such large breasts? Do they have a function, like, are they prehensile or something? Why not a robot with man features?

Well, if I'm going to pay what ever this thing costs then it better come with huge tits - and a dick!

That's stage 1. Stage 2 involves ensuring all humans have huge breasts.

The breasts are only for the haptics.
