Cool Wall-E Merchandise
Disney/Pixar’s Wall-E is still about two months from release, and I am definitely very excited to see it. However, I (and several of my friends) have also been anticipating the merchandise. Being a movie about a robot, there is strong potential for some really cool toys.
For example, some friends have a voice activated R2-D2—a Wall-E version of that seems like a no-brainer. Well, last night I came across this Gearlog story (by way of Engadget) that would appear to be just that.
Ultimate Wall-E is a programmable robot with 10 separate motors and sensors that will let him react to his surroundings. He’ll be out sometime this summer for $190 but will be introduced to the public at Maker Faire this weekend (not the 29th as mentioned in the Engadget story).

OK, I want the Ultimate Wall-E *and* the iDance Wall-E.
Another article I read says they will also be releasing “additional WALL-E-inspired robots, action figures, playsets, a role-play WALL-E robot arm, novelties and collectibles”.
This could turn out to be a seriously expensive movie.
So, *where* are we having the Wall-E toy convention once we all obtain him? I still vote for the unused Grand Californian meeting room hallways.
