Futurama's Wooden Bender from Kidrobot is a technology-free robot!

While I love The Simpsons, there's always been something about Matt Groening's other television creation — Futurama — that truly tickled my fancy; perhaps it was the misanthropic and egocentric Bender, the robot we all love to… be hated by. There's something also in the irony of man-made vinyl being formed to resemble wood that pleases me, so you can imagine my reaction to this Kidrobot x Futurama "Wooden Bender" figure. Standing 6-inches-tall, the vinyl piece comes complete with removable red woodpecker accessory and is scheduled to be released on June 7th with a retail price of $50.
