We brought R2-D2 and WALL•E to the Laguna Beach Library for another educational presentation about how the robots were built and how we use them in the community. People of all ages asked great questions and enjoyed getting their photos taken with the robots afterward.
Adventures with WALL-E
Mike Senna, well known from the remote-control R2-D2 replica he built in 2003, has now built a working WALL-E replica from the Pixar film. Completely scratch built, as there are no hobbiest parts available.

WonderCon 2018 Anaheim
We shared our R2-D2, BB-8, WALL•E and Mouse droid at WonderCon in Anaheim. Mike appeared as part of a droid builders panel to help people interested in building their own droids. The robots spread a lot of joy to attendees, as usual. We always enjoy seeing other’s creativity and putting smiles on people’s faces.

WALL-E joined Victor Franco's R2-D2 to visit the pediatric patients at Children's Hospital Orange County. As usual, the staff enjoyed it as much as the kids! WALL-E always likes to bring smiles to patients and their families.
