Don't take apart everything...

Even though the figure can be separated into 20 parts, I would strongly recommend that you do not disconnect the ball-&-socket head/neck joint, or the two compartment doors. There are small joints in all three cases, and I'm afraid that if a kid is too careless with them, they'll break when being taken off or put back on!

Also, regarding the cords along the back of his head- if you want the eyes to be level rather than kinda sad lookin' all the time, just press up on the cords, and they'll stick there for the most part; then you can push the eyes upwards, and they'll stay put.

An early present...?

If I'd had my 26yr-old head screwed on straight, I'd've posted this today on my birthday as a present to y'all rather than yesterday. Or maybe a Super Sentai review, or another Transformer...

(*d-ohh!*)

Oh, well. ^_^

Wall-E

First of all, Happy Birthday EVA_Unit_4A!

About the toy, nice review. I'm not so much a fan of the Wall-E design, but it's possible I might get into it more eventually; I hear the movie is awesome, so maybe it will change my mind.

Short Circut Revisited

Not as smart though little Wall-e, But fast and the harder working robot for sure. I just can't get past how similar to Short Circuit he is. Except color!
Those locals kick your face into outer space! hehe
Great little toy must say and nice price.

Actually, because I've

Actually, because I've never seen "Short Circuit" before- or it's been so long since I saw it- I forgot to mention that similarity.

. . .

Something else that I don't think I stressed enough was that there's another figure out there that you can disassemble- Construct-A-Bot WALL-E. That one was held together by magnets at all the joints, and I steered clear of it because of that. the tractor-treads, also, couldn't be taken apart, and instead had little gray wheels underneath rather than rubber treads. It's nearly identical in shape and size to U-Repair here, and there's a companion Construct-A-Bot EVE figure as well that's made along the same lines.

. . .

Speaking of companion, I found a few more figures that I'm interested in getting-

Search 'N Protect EVE
Clean 'N Go M-O

I'm shooting for the EVE figure now, but I need to do some more research on the M-O figure before I commit.

...anyone here signed-up with DisneyShopping.com, or have a Disney Store in their local mall that might still carry either one? ^_^;
