Elektro was "7" feet tall and could walk and move his hands and arms. he could speak about 700 words using 78-rmp.
He could move his head too and get commands through the receiver. His photoelectric eyes could distinguish red and green lights.

Elektro could do some interesting things too. like he could blow up the balloons and Smoking the cigarette.
