They’re just a small little robot guy
Maybe it’s an internalized fear of dolls coming to life speaking here, but seeing little robots emulate animals and talk on their own is scarier than cute little droids or stationary animatronics. It’s especially a little concerning when they’re free-roaming with arms and legs—but we get this is the next step in cool character walk-around tech (with another iteration looking a lot like Zootopia’s Judy Hopps), so let’s just hope Disney remembers its own Meet the Robinsons and makes sure they don’t attain sentience. At least the other robots we’ve seen so far also look like kid Groot, who I wouldn’t mind going into battle with.
