Galaxea Dynamics sells the R1 humanoid directly through its own website, with the R1 Pro listed at $69,999 and the R1 Lite at $39,999. The product page states units are in stock and ship within 15 days. Price and availability are verified from the maker's own product page.
Reflex
Reflex Robotics' Reflex is a wheeled mobile-manipulator humanoid for warehouse and logistics operations: a sub-2-foot wheeled base, dual arms (25 pounds per arm, 50 pounds combined), an adjustable spine reaching floor to high shelf, a 16-plus-hour battery, and swappable three-finger grippers with suction. The verified-vs-claimed point is the autonomy posture: Reflex is designed for teleoperated deployment with a learning-from-demonstrations path toward autonomy, not an autonomous worker today.
DEPLOY records it at pilot maturity with one verified deployment. As industrial and logistics equipment it has no consumer price, and its wheeled base distinguishes it from the bipedal-humanoid cohort.
