Dash - Welcome back, dude! I haven’t seen you ages.

In light of the new Ultimate WALL•E, I thought of an awesome way to market WALL•E.

Basically Disney get a some units of Ultimate WALL•E and modify them a bit. This would entail a little screen on the front, and a holder for some pamphlets on the front, and also a speaker somewhere. Now this is really quite extensive and might be better to use the WALL•E’s that will be touring the theme parks.

However it basically entails having WALL•E’s roam main street’s and malls and stuff, and on the screen plays the movie trailer, and WALL•E has pamphlets for the movie. They’d need to get Ben Burtt to record some more audio for audio interaction. The people remotely controlling WALL•E can stand from afar (maybe a camera in WALL•E’s eyes for that perspective too). I think it’d be really cool to see WALL•E roaming about and handing out pamphlets. You’d definitely get the kids.

Maybe someone from Disney’s marketing will read this and run with it.

Anyone know where or when I can buy ultimate WALL•E? Its my birthday today…so I’ll be using some of the money I get for me birthday to buy this bad boy.

:open_mouth:

Yes, this is not a hoax, I did find the toys (they’re about 3-5 inches tall) this past weekend at my Toys R Us.

I went looking for ‘Cars’ (found no new ones). As I pased one of the end-caps near the action figure aisles (I never do look at those as they usually have nothing I want), I glanced along the top shelf, and saw those ‘sad eyes’ staring back! Needless to say, I had found Wall-E! They had 3 different types of Wall-E, as well as a toy of EVE, and one of that little robot named MO from the latest trailer.

Each was going for $9.99, but I only got the ‘U-Repair Wall-E’ and ‘EVE.’ What I found strange was that I had not heard anyone else say they had seen these yet, or even any show up on eBay.

Needless to say, I freed them from their cardboard and plastic prisons, and began playing around with them.

U-Repair Wall-E has several detachable parts that you can then reattach to his boxy body (if you remove his parts, he looks like he’s in his ‘sleep/hiding’ mode). Though not as rusty as I’d like, he still exudes cuteness. He also has movable treads, but you need a surface to really provide friction for them to move (my computer table was too smooth, but he moved fine going over the carpeting in my apartment).

EVE comes with a little clear plastic base so that she appears to hover. If you press down on her head, she goes through 6 different eye expressions. Mine malfunctions at times (and she gives the ‘evil eyes,’ which are unsettling) You can also replace her right arm with her ‘blasting gun’ arm. She also comes with a tiny rockbase that you can pop a chunk off to make it like she blasted a hole in it! A button her back opens her chest to reveal a compartment to store things, and also reveals a little plant emblem inside. She also has a lightbulb and a shoe with some dirt and a sprout coming out of it.

I sent an email to PIXAR Planet, asking if they’d like to see photos, since I haven’t seen anyone else report these toys. I currently have Wall-E and EVE on my computer desk. Wall-E is holding EVE’s right hand, and looks like he’s reciting poetry, while Eve appears to be giggling (the hopeless romantic in me :blush: ). I may take them home this weekend and pose them around the greenery of my local park.

Finally, some toys have hit the shelves! Thanks for the info on the new merchandise, uruseiranma. They sound awesome and a lot more fun than the Ratatouille action figures. We saw a few WALL•E figures from the UK Toy Fair a few months ago, but the people attending weren’t allowed to take any photos of EVE. I, and many other people I’m sure, would love to see pics of the action figures you bought.

Well, you’re lucky Rachel cus I found some already.

I submited these to UP but I guess they haven’t been posted yet so they’ll be up here first!

I need those plushies and that M.O. toy. :open_mouth: Thanks for the link, martini! I have a feeling those WALL•E toys, especially the plushies, will sell out very quickly. Just for the sake of thoroughness, I’ll post the pictures here, as well:

I hope they come out with a Wall-E and EVE keychain. I’d attach them to my backpack in no time.

I’m 20 have a baby girl on the way and have more Pixar toys than I have room for! So needless to say, I dont think we can ever be too old for toys. Toy’s rock. And everyone can bet their britches my daughter will have lots of wall-e toys and other pixar goods :smiley: cause that’s what dads are for…right? :slight_smile:

:wink:

I work at Wal-Mart, and I’ve recently started to see Wall-E products pop up. Today, I saw a set of Wall-E dishes and an Eve T-shirt for young girls. There were a bunch of other things, but I forget. :confused:

Hi there everyone.
Russ here.
I’m a designer in kids bath products, and we do all the Pixar licenses for the US.
Unfortunately, most mass-retailers haven’t been to interested in WALL-E so if you see product out there, buy it because there might not be huge quantites to refill stock from.
I got my hands on a WALL-E bubble bath decanter from a manufacturer in the UK. This item won’t be available in the USA, but you might want to check with Ebayers in the UK or possibly Amazon.com in the UK in June when the movie hits.
Here’s my cat with WALL-E.
(The top of his body is removable. Thats where the cap is located to pour the bubble bath out of.)
He has posable arms, and wheels under his treads!
Very cool, no?

I want one!!! :open_mouth:

I’ll have to check E-Bay and see what I can find. :smiley:

Thanks for the photo and info, RussTee. I’m a bit disappointed to hear that retailers haven’t been that interested in ordering WALL•E merchandise, because I’m sure that the movie will be a big hit and merchandise will be in big demand. But that’s just my prediction and what I’m hoping will come true.

PS I like your kitty cat.
