Disney announced a new robotic toy today that is programmable and built in conjunction with Pixar, Thinkway Toys and WowWee. The robotic toys are inspired by WALL-E from the film of the same name hitting the big screen this summer. Disney also says that a flying Tinker Bell toy is coming as well.
The first toy will be an iDance WALL-E dancing boombox available in June and the Tinker Bell flying toy will be available in the fall. Another WALL-E toy due in the fall is called the Ultimate WALL-E. This toy features 10 motors providing for advanced movement and animation.
Ultimate WALL-E is programmed by a remote that is easy enough for kids to operate and the toy features a follow-me and voice activated mode. Ultimate WALL-E sounds very similar to the Plea robot dinosaur with emotion states and sensors to allow him to detect people in the room and navigate around obstacles. Ultimate WALL-E will retail for $189.99 this fall.
