Even since I first saw the very first teaser trailer for Pixar’s WALL-E, I’ve been looking forward to getting a mini version of the little robot for my desk. Spotted at the UK ToyFair is the first WALL-E action figure.
I’m not a huge fan of the toy company Pixar uses to produce their figures. They are usually pretty flimsy and poorly painted. This WALL-E toy looks better than the norm, but not leaves me wanting more. Don’t get me wrong, the WALL-E action figure is in Cool Stuff for a reason - I’m buying this. I’m just hoping that Disney recognizes that the sci-fi audience usually wants some higher quality cube goodies. Although, I’m sure they have something planned. Check out more photos after the jump.

I would buy the truck for it’s awesomness alone. The robot reminds me of short circuit.

Alright found it, the full up international trailer on you tube. It starts off with a view in space and then there is a narration’s throughout the video. Then introduces a female alien robot which I believe Wall-E calls Eve. At first Eva tries to blast Wall-E into molten rock but that doesn’t stop our tyke he still wants to work on making the connection. Enjoy Wall-E
Now our little friend leaves the only place he has ever known to find the only friend he has ever had.

Awesome stuff. I actually wouldn’t mind a larger one, maybe even metal, for my desk.
And yeah, it looks like either short circuit or the Nintendo NES peripheral R.O.B.

Isn’t Wall-E actually a Transformer after all? Who cares, I want also one!

I’m not sure why, but I kind of want one. I kinda really want one.
I do wish his little treads would move, but you take what you can get.
