This little guy is amazing! Hoping that they find a way to incorporate him into the park experience. The real trick will be keeping fans from touching him, our front to hug him, etc.

Will be interesting to see if they are working on any other characters like this. I wonder which other Disney characters are designed in such a way that this type of robotic system is possible?

They had a Groot character they showed off a couple years ago.
