MAGMO THE DESTROYER
Magmo is here to help Earth and people live happy lives. Magmo fights
to protect Earth and people from all the nasty Bad Things that are
always tyring to ruin Earth and make people sad and mad all the time.
Magmo is here to destroy the Bad Things, led by the worse of the worst BadMoFo.
Magmo and friends fight against BadMoFo and his army of bad things;
the Evil Greedy-Bellies, the Stinky Pollution Uglies, the Trendies,
the Dum-Dum Warheads, the Junky-Munchy-Mo's, the Materialistics, and the
Guzzles. Magmo is here to help. Magmo is here to destroy.
You can't go too far without running into some sort of mutation of Magmo's work, whether it's his
ever present ubiquitous icon, the infamous whisky dog stickers, his sagely good advice or his numerous
art shows and collaborations. We've always liked Magmo's work and are happy he's decided to become part robot.

exploration with art and living."

SLACKART
Michael Slack is a damn good artist and has been marked with an innate ability
to create drawings that make us robots very happy. He is an accomplished illustrator, having
appeared in everything from Time Magazine to Ranger Rick, Nickelodeon Magazine
to Applied Arts. His unique approach to illustration and animation makes him a favorite
for droves of art directors, but where Slack is at his best is when you leave him in a dark room
with only a scrap of paper and a few pieces of charcoal. Michael was the winner
of the Stickernation/ Sticker Robot competition where we saw
more than 6000 entries and 20 international judges. Peruse his gallery. It will make you smile.

ZOLTRON
Zoltron is an enigma. A self proclaimed 70's teen idol, Zoltron's
wave hairdo and unique California accent epitomized a certain level of
cool,
which inevitable paved the way to his success as the first leader of
the west coast
(all-moped) unit of the Hell's Angels, known as the "Rebel Brigade." A
serious gambling
habit ended Zoltron's cycling career. It was then that he picked up the
art of sticker slapping,
which includes his now globally renowned street technique of cutting
the sticker's corners
with a razor blade, so that people can't easily tear down his vinyl.
Also famous for putting up a sticker and singeing the vinyl
with a lighter to insure an instant cure, Zoltron, in his own mind, has
single handedly revolutionized sticker slapping techniques, world wide.
