Vinylmation Robots


Too cool! Disney Stores' Vinylmation has a new series coming out called (drum roll please) Vinylmation Robots. Twelve robots make up the 3-inch vinyl set. All are articulated in the arms and head and feature futuristic robot mechanical paint schemes decorating a Mickey vinyl figure.


Here's where the collector fun comes in. Boxes contain one robot each along with a miniature collector's card. But you don't know what robot comes in what box. No cheating though. Open the box and the figure is sealed in a silver bag. My suggestion, either buy a bunch or if you get a duplicate, trade with your friends or other collectors!


My robot is the talkative Communication Bot designed by Disney Store Artist, Oskar Mendez. ComBot is painted in black, gray and yellow with tape reel ears, speaker belly and decorated in all sorts of sound and visual ports and speakers. One hand is open and one is closed, but be careful, he may be listening! Disney does vinyl right. Buy them when they arrive-they're sure to be collector items.
