Bonjour Tee. bienvenue au forum.

Your project looks like a good start. This is one of my favorite robots, and look forward to your posts.
 
I remember wanting one of these so bad when I was a kid (and I still am a kid in many ways!) but yeah, never seen anyone do this before so this would be a fun project to fallow.
Never give up, never surrender!

The Johhny 5 Builders group have done a lot of great research. I believe most of what's been built (lifesize) is concentrating on the tracks.

Personally I'd LOVE a J5 head. The shape would lend itself it Pep pretty nicely and then from there some nice hollow resin casts would be SWEET.
 
There was a J5 remote auction on PIH or ebay two or three years ago - I do have a picture, but have to look for it...

The best reference for J5!

Original Radio-Controlled Miniature from Short Circuit 2:

we can find on Web much project for the real size and some mini model in resin but nothing to the sale.

I had in contact with Kenneth JOHNSON which announced me that there was to be a new movie and maybe replica.

... I hear that Short Circuit 3 is in the works, although I am not involved. Perhaps then they will make small robots like him ...

Nice start....don't give up! I remember wanting one of those little guys, of course full-size would have been nice too:)
 
man its been my dream to always have one of the small J5's. I remember always trying to build a small one out of wood but never succeeded. LOL i hope one day we are all given a nice little tiny metal replica to play with.
 
"Number Johnny 5 is ALIVE!!"
Love both the movies, would be great if they did a #3!
....as for a build, couldn't we just cannibalize a toy Wall-E??

As soon as I saw Wall-E my mind screamed "Johnny Five." There are obvious differences, but there's also enough similarity to wonder at Wall-E's inspiration. It seems that a 1:1 Johnny Five would be on par with a full 1:1 R2-D2. It would be a heck of a thing to have on display. I can just imagine hooking it up with a built in mp3 player that called people "crap-head." LOL

I thought the same exact thing when I saw Wall-e..It totally reminded me of johnny 5.

I think disney star tours may of had droids in their waiting area that looked like Johnny 5. Darn, I wish I took pictures of them before they closed it down..There were two of them, and one would talk to the crowd
