Rumor has it that we will see a Wall-E mobile animatronic character running around just in time for the movie’s release. Wall-E is said to be quite cute and stands about 3 feet tall. From the sound of things Disney has elected to build a Wall-E for each coast.

Disney's new line of programmable toy robots will launch in June, with more robotic toys to follow this fall.

Disney today announced its entry into the robotic toy market with an innovative line of robotic toy products created in collaboration with Pixar Animation Studios, Thinkway Toys and WowWee. The robotic toys are inspired by WALL-E, the robot from the Disney-Pixar theatrical release of the same name set to debut this summer, and Tinker Bell, the beloved Disney Fairy. The iDance WALL-E dancing boombox will be available in June; the Ultimate WALL-E robotic toy and the remote control Tinker Bell flying toy will be available this fall.

The Ultimate WALL-E features 10 motors, giving it a high level of movement and animation. The remote control should make it easy for kids to program WALL-E's movements. A touch programming system lets kids direct WALL-E by making patterns on the remote's touch pad.

With voice activation and a follow-me mode, WALL-E can follow the sound of a human voice and detect someone entering a room. He also has several emotional states and an easy system for programming thousands of combinations of movements with the remote. Numerous sensors allow him to detect and respond to his environment, including infrared sensors that allow him to detect obstacles and steer around them, sonic ears that detect sound direction, and touch sensors.

The Ultimate WALL-E is also MP3 compatible and features built-in speakers. USB cables and rechargeable batteries are included. The Ultimate WALL-E will debut this fall at ToysRUs and DisneyShopping, with a suggested retail price of $190.
