'Where's WALL-E?'

This is a bit of robot art I did recently called 'Where's WALL-E?' featuring a crowd of bots from movies/tv.

I guess for Transfans I could just rename it 'Where's Wheelie?' since Wheelie is in there somewhere!

I have to confess I had not heard of that one! But I will definitely see about adding him in

great stuff, even recognised most of the robots. wasn't too hard to find though, the green cross code robot grabs your attention quite alot and him staring right at wall-e gave it away.

easy to see all of the UK influences in there, there will be a few that americans won't recognise

love bender perving on eva.

i don't know if edna really counts as a robot though, she's more magical than electrical right?

Where's the Iron Giant? Where's HAL 9000? Where's Astro Boy?

And also, have you thought of adding in Rusty the Boy Robot sitting on Big Guy's shoulder?

Honestly, this is an excellent piece you made. And the way it is right now, if you choose to, you could go even further and just branch it out adding more robots and turning it onto a real big "find all the characters" game. Awesome stuff.

Magnificent piece, by the way. Holy crap, you even put in Weebo, Jet Jaguar and Jenny Wakeman!? Man. Love Wheelie holding Wheelie.

Also you should put Church from Red vs. Blue in there.

Here's some thoughts I had whilst perusing this fantabulous compilation of robits:

- The two different models of the Lost in Space robot separated by the Terminator...'kay
- Oh hai Johnny 5, oh hai Rodney Copperbottom OH DEAR GOD SCOOTER
- Sonny from I, Robot, cool. That better be Andrew from Bicentennial Man next to him, that'd be sweet. Oh hai, Matrix robit.
- Original Marvin teh Paranoid Android, B.E.N. and XR, cool, but who's the smarmy lookin' bot next to XR?
- Holy shit, Tiny from Little Robots! He's dancin' up a storm with Clank, I see.
- A DRD and Goddard intrigue me so much I completely missed R2-friggin-D2. Is that bad? Oh hai MO.
- Two models of K9? Sweet. Oh hai, WALL-E.
- A Dalek, Bender, EVE and the Tin Woodsman. Odd combo there.
- Who's the little yellow robit in Kryten's crotch?
- Is Alpha-5 the name of the Power Rangers robit? Oh, who cares, GIR! And a Skutter!
- Two Wallace and Gromit robit characters near each other? Makes sense. Oh hai, Humping Robot.
- Forgotten the name of the robit from Atomic Betty, but hey, one o' them big robits from Judge Dredd!
- Calculon? Jenny? Rosey? Who cares, new Marvin teh Paranoid Android!
- Naughty Noo-Noo! Oh hai Sgt. Whatever from Robot Wars.
- TOM SERVO!
- Holy crap, the robit cat and mouse from that one Tom and Jerry cartoon! I tip my hat to you, sir!
- Who's the robit with the polka-dot bow tie? He's so friggin' familiar to me, but I can't quite place it...
- Dot Matrix, Wheelie holding Wheelie, a battle droid and what I think is a Cyberman. Sweet.

Would love a guide to this wonderful piece of art, as well as possible updates. Glaring omissions for me: the Iron Giant, Daft Punk and CROW! How dare you have Tom Servo and not Crow? Would be cool to see Pollo from AT4W in there as well, but that's me.

Wouldn't Lopez be a bit more fitting, given that he's an actual full-fledged robit?

Thanks, and yeah it could really get out of hand!! I had to have certain restrictions, for instance I didn't want anything that looked human standing around (Bladerunner Replicants/Bishop/Data/countless 'android imposters' from sci-fi shows etc). Astro Boy falls into that category, but his robot dog from the movie is in there!

I also realised there are a heck of a lot of massive giant robots (especially in Japanese fiction) which would be out of scale with everyone else, so for that reason I left out the Iron Giant too... Oh and Hal 9000 is basically just a computer, which again would open the floodgates to fictional computers (most of which would be difficult to fit in, not having 'bodies' as such)...

Having said that, some stuff I've put in isn't really robots at all (Doctor Who fans will know what I mean ) or is just for fun (Evil Edna/Henry Hoover). So the parameters are very loose...

Cheers, I'm currently running a competition on the facebook page to win a signed poster for whoever can name the most robots, but after that closes I will be sure to post a comprehensive guide to them all

Also, I'm trying to keep the number of bots from each franchise to a minimum, but maybe I should add Crow? Who votes yes?

I don't know AT4W though, what's that?
