A challenge is always fun, but when it involves ‘Bots with Stuff,’ it can only get better. A gentlemen’s bet between Shoebox artist Chris Grines and his fellow coworker resulted in Grines drawing three robots a day. These are just a few of the 165 robots he brought to life.
The 55-week-long project has seen Bots with stuff from all kinds of geeky sources. As you will see, there are allusions to 'Star Wars,' 'Transformers,' 'Princess Bride,' 'Zelda,' and even 'Saturday Night Live.'
