Check out Bubblino, a robot that takes commands from tweets and goes into action. Pretty sweet. Thanks to Sean Berger, who just so happens to be our web developer extraordinaire, for the heads up.

Botropolis has posted a roundup of 10 awesome robot Halloween pumpkins. There’s still time, so whip out your pumpkins and your carving tools and get busy.

Nebort

This little guy is just as adorable in the daylight as he is at night.

Dalek

This Dalek pumpkin is amazing. It doesn’t just look awesome, it also moves. We are swooning.

Punk-O-Tron

We were excited to see a familiar face in the roundup. We created this robot pumpkin a few Halloweens ago. I must say, our robots have gotten better over the years!

Visit Botropolis to see the other seven great creations. Have a nerdy and happy Halloween!

Great animation by Jesse Hill and Piotr Karwas:

This book looks fantastic, and would look even more fantastic on our coffee table. “The Gigantic Robot” book by Tom Gauld, available at Cabanon Press. Via swissmiss.

Heineken R2-D2

Sure, the instructions might be in Spanish, but that will just make it more of a challenge. Make your own Heineken R2-D2 with these Instructables directions.

Thanks to Andrew Elman for the heads up.
