The Robots of EPCOT Center | Keep Epcot Weird Ep. 2

In the second installment of Keep Epcot Weird, we'll be checking out the many different robots that could be found at the park, from the walkaround characters to ones you could only see inside attractions. We'll also be discussing what all happened to some of the ones who were removed as well.

And if you were at all curious about the "solar powed lawn mowers" I mentioned at the end of the video, feel free to read up a bit more on them here:
