Create Your Own 3D Droid with My Robot Nation

The website also doesn’t require any installations of additional plugins since it uses WebGL. Kids can choose different body types, eyes, head, arms and other parts that will fit their creative vision. If they love their design, they can request the company to build an actual model for them.
