GeekDad: DreamWorks Animation’s ‘The Wild Robot’ Now Available to Buy or Rent

Last week I wrote that Universal Pictures Home Entertainment sent over 5 digital codes for The Wild Robot to give away to our readers. I’ve drawn the winners, and they are:

Nick Peña, Dan Callahan, Jeremy McLaughlin, Nestor Aparicio, and Christopher Hutchings.

Congratulations to those lucky five! You’ll be receiving those codes at the email addresses you provided soon.

Speaking of luck, I also received a fun little box from Roz this week:

I just had to shoot a short video opening the box; you’ll see why when you play it. Be sure your volume is on when you watch this!

Inside the box there were all sorts of goodies, starting with the original The Wild Robot novel by Peter Brown:

A fantastic surprise was found when I opened the journal in the box, and four butterflies fluttered out of the pages:

This paint by numbers set inside the box includes a 16×20″ canvas, pre-mixed acrylic paints, and paint brushes:

There were a bunch of other items included in the box, including an apron, colored pencils, a book on storyboarding the film, a digital code for the film, and an original framed lithograph.

Finally, there was a ‘Universal Dynamics Future Customer’ card with a QR code. Scanning the QR code takes you to the following video on YouTube, where you can learn how to draw Roz along with star Lupita Nyong’o:

Thanks to Universal Pictures Home Entertainment and DreamWorks Animation for sending along this awesome box full of goodies!
