Own a Plush Bad Robot…For $275?
That’s more than Hasbro’s Cloverfield toy cost. But you get bragging rights with this – it’s part of a limited edition of only five.

Created by Toronto-based designer toy company Monster Factory, this guy is part of a Bad Robot-inspired exhibit that opens tonight in L.A.’s Gallery 1988 West, an exhibition space where most of the shows are dedicated to pop-culture and nerdy things. Ten percent of the proceeds go to JJ Abrams and Bryan Burk’s favorite charity, The Mission Continues.
The robot will supposedly be available to purchase via the Gallery 1988 website (I don’t see him there just yet), but if you want him you’d best move as quickly as he does through the tall grass – even at that price tag, I wouldn’t expect him to last long.

As editor of The Robot's Voice since 2012, he can take the blame for the majority of the site's content, all of which he creates because he loves you very, very much. (Although he loves nachos more. Sorry.) Prior to TRV, Luke wrote for publications that include the New Times LA, Los Angeles CityBeat, E! Online, OC Weekly, Geekweek, GeekChicDaily, The L.A.
