this came to me in a vision

Playskool Wagon by Gene Oldfield (1982), Robot Repair, Sacramento, CA. This robot is adapted from a 6 wheel battery operated ride-on toy, the Playskool Adventurer (lower image), with a body made of fiberglass. “Gene Oldfield, mathematician, phycisist and teacher at a Sacramento area university is a happy home-robot tinkerer. His fascination with robotics goes back to the late 1950s. “It was intriguing to see mechanical rats like the ones in the Living Brain running around. That inspired me,” Oldfield said.” – Robot hobbyist: inspired since late 50s, InfoWorld, November 8, 1982.

Made a little mascot thing!! <3
Its name is PEZ (short for Puff En' Ztuff (also just bc I like the candy)) and it uses it/its pronouns.
Fun fact about me, but I created this tumblr specifically to get away from my other online identity, and adopt a new persona. But damn it if this thing doesn't have extremely similar design notes to my... other truesona. Rot, make a sona w/o angel/devil theming, hearts, and weird shadowy bits: impossible challenge.
Yes, it does have a built in electrical component (the expression screen). The charger goes up its butthole.
OH. And I probably should've represented this somewhere in the drawings, but it has a zipper on its back to access... you know, stuff.
