In 2002, California resident Mike Henna built a working R2-D2.
In 2010, the robot hobbyist came up with a much bigger challenge for himself – to build a working WALL-E robot.
To get the movements just right, he used screen grabs from the movie as well as posters. Senna, who has a full-time job as well, spent 25 hours per week on the project.
He now takes the working WALL-E to Hope Cancer Survivors Picnic for pediatrics and enjoys the astonished looks he gets from the kids there.
