Astro Boy (Tetsuwan Atomu) sleeping yesterday morning in Little Tokyo.
Today began with a new bot from my favorite person, @leah7peah to wish me Happy Birthday!
I found WALL-E in St. George at Comics Plus.
It’s a big week for new bots! New Mazinger Z & Aphrodite A. Bigger & Deffer!
Feliz Cumpleaños
Happy Early Birthday To Me. Acquisitions from a great long day yesterday.
My other not-purchased bots from Frank & Son today.
Too tall. Missing antenna. But really really really nice Combatra. Did not buy.
My bots love The Red Velvet Spoon Case @dairyqueen sent. Happy Valentine’s Day! #BreakTheCliché
New Bot Tuesday! “Imperializer” a villain of the Ultraman series. Found at Anime Jungle in L.A.!
New Bot Thursday! Robbie The Robot. 2014 toy from a CLASSIC 1956 robot.
I need a lot of different stuff on my desk this week.
Have a robotic new year!
Christmas was new bot day. Welcome Baymax from Big Hero 6 + cat Mochi. Thanks Leah!
My helper bots this week. It’s been a busy week. Happy Thanksgiving!
These robots fell down because of a stray hacky sack. Chad and I are still terrible (or I am), but we’re better than a month ago!
Fruit & Robots.
Dreadwing & Rusty The Boy Robot are buds this week on the desk.
This week’s bots are pretty tough. I think Gipsy Danger may take a swing at The Big Guy.
King Joe manages my raspberries and strawberries.
Robots and coaster time. Code is hard and I need distractions.
This week’s desk bots are villains. Dreadwing & King Joe. They look at this cupcake monster with skepticism.
Getter Poseidon and Ultraman Cosmos “raise the roof” about the code I wrote this week.
Cookie time.
Getter Poseidon presents Ultraman Cosmos with a hacky sack. (It’s technically a Sipa Sipa but never mind).
“3 Figures, 6 Weapons” sounds like the title of a terrible action movie. I did NOT buy these bots from CVS today.
WALL-E deadlifting a banana. E-306 looks on admiringly.
Combattler V and Giant Robo are pals.
Welcome Astro Boy (Tetsuwan Atomu or Mighty Atom) to my collection! Created by the great Osamu Tezuka in 1952, he’s got heart.
It’s been a fun week with superdeformed Mechagodzilla and Tetsujin-28. Who will be the desk robots next week?
Robot Girl is my favorite. With her mecha she assists me with my headphone cord.
My desk has moved. That means the bots have moved. They’re up in that shelf in the distance–just slightly too out of reach. Gipsy Danger & Girl Robot are hanging with me temporarily until I can figure out if I can stand them being so far away.
Translucent Gundam from #robot4less looks pretty cool lit up.
Me and the boys got Gundams! Being walking distance to #robot4less is awesome.
Wednesday is new Bot day here on the bus. Stowing away is Wall-E.
Old Boy’s Club. (ROBOT-7 joins the crew)
ROBOT-7 is a wind-up tin toy from I think the mid-90s. He’s a replica of an older toy. I love him and he was a surprise gift from my pal Erin aka @missewon … Expect more photos when he joins my toy robot army tomorrow at work! Thanks EW!
Back to school photo of my bots.
Gipsy Danger from Pacific Rim and the little red, silver and yellow fellow join the bot family!

Giant robot Batman, some random dude, and me with very tired eyes. I swear I feel better than that looks!
Me and a friend. Bidibidibidi.

Pairs of brothers! (Rightmost is a new acquisition!) Getter 1 bros and Combatra aka Combattler V.
Chōdenji Robo Combattler V! This place is great. Will come back.
I came to the right place.
I got out without purchasing a thing from @ROBOT4LESS But I wanted many of the shiny things.
