25 Children’s Bots Get Stripped Down

Writing by lukeanderson on Monday, 30 of June , 2008 at 3:31 am

Barney Bot

Have you ever taken a look at one of those dancing stuffed children’s toys and wondered just what the insides look like? Well, if you’re reading this site, then it’s a safe bet that you’re not alone. (However, if you’ve ever looked at something which was alive and wondered what the insides look like, you’re definitely in the wrong place.) Artist Matt Kirkland has taken that extra step and actually opened up 25 toy robots and exposed their inner workings for all to see.

I have to say that I never really expected something so dark and menacing to come out of Barney (or maybe I did). You have to check out the full gallery, as some of those bots are just downright creepy without their furry exteriors.
