I've decided to name this robot character I-1. I like the name, though I might change it later.

"creepy, yet endearing." Reminds me a bit of what I think of Wall-E. He's adorable, and his design is adorable, but if you look too closely at his "eyes" he becomes kind of scary looking.

Alright, thanks for the feedback :D
