Good point.  I read an interesting article about the psychology regarding humanoid robots and our attraction/revulsion.  It seems the more realistic they become, the more likely we are to find them disturbing and more likely to look at their faults.  It seems to be hard wired, too.  Not even a cultural thing, just the way humans react.

Maybe something similar happens when we see "realistic" Poser figures.

welcome to Robophobia.... (an interesting take on this was in Doctor Who and the Robots of Death when one of the sandminer crew discovers the robot servants are conducting the murders.....)
