By The story of WALL-E was a long journey beginning with Andrew Stanton and his fellow writers conceptualising the story back in 1994 but not beginning development until 2003. WALL-E is a very unique story that is told visually rather than with words. Therefore the look and concept of the character was obviously very crucial to the film.
Over the years the Disney Store has released numerous concept art mugs, but this WALL-E mug definitely stands out. Since WALL-E is so heavily dependant visuals and the art of animation, this mug is truly special as it features artwork inspired by original character sketches. The mug looks fantastic and looks like a mug that would be sitting on a Pixar animator’s desk.

Where can I get this mug?
This mug was available in the Disney Store in the UK and on the UK Disney Store website, however at the time of this post, it is out of stock. It was also available in the Disney parks.
I checked on eBay and there are many mugs available for a fair price so if you’re on the hunt for one of these mugs, just keep searching.
This WALL-E mug is a must-have for any WALL-E fan or Pixar fan in general. It can be used at home, at work, as a mug, display piece, or even a planter.
