Like, WALL-E freed an entire ward of like, what, 50+ malfunctioning robots that paraded him around, but only seven joined the final fight??? Like, I get that maybe Pixar didn't want to have a whole crowd of robots to clutter up scenes and such, but like, I've always been curious as to why those specific seven. Maybe they were more marketable or something...?

But like, also in the scene where they all parade WALL-E until they're halted by the stewards, those seven manage to escape after EVE accidentally gets her picture taken as she re-attaches her gun. Like, they escaped together during the ordeal and later when WALL-E plays "Put on Your Sunday Clothes" at the request of VN-GO, it's those seven that assembled together out of all the rest to join WALL-E, EVE, and M-O. I smell a lot of lore potential here; of the 50+ robots in that ward, it's clear these seven are pretty close-knit. To add on to this, in the Heavy Iron Studio version of the WALL-E video game, one of the side quests is to rescue the seven reject bots.

...I do think that the tennis-bot and the golf-bot could've joined in the fun of taking down the stewards. Also, L-T didn't really do much but follow the group. Maybe there could've been a scene where they all get stuck in a dark space and L-T lights the way?

Reject Force Seven? In 2026? You better believe it!

And in Lettie's words, IT'S GONNA BE LIT!!! ***air horns blare***

So, I made some revision concept sketches of Lettie Coleman and Bissell Dustbuster, two of the members of the vigilante team "Reject Force Seven", for the story remake "Extended Vacation".

A quick rundown of these two:

Lettie's full name is Leticia Liora Coleman, but is nicknamed "Lettie" for short. Her surname, Coleman, refers to a brand of camping gear, primarily flashlights; Coleman's logo bears a camping flashlight.

As a biometrically augmented human being, she has a special HUD that gives her night vision and she can also activate a "flashlight mode" with her eyes to light up the dark.

If she were in DnD, Lettie would be a Way of the Sun Soul Monk.

She can wipe the floor with anyone at Super Smash Bros.

When I first drafted this character, like, AGES ago, she was originally gonna be a boy named Coleman Batteries and was black. Then I changed her to a girl cause I felt it worked better (I blame a character design by the legendary @bechnokid, but it was so cute!) , but I also changed her skin tone. Recently, I felt like reverting to the original skin tone because I think it works better design-wise.

My hypothetical VA casting for her is Priah Ferguson.

Bissell is [so painfully obviously] named after the vacuum brand Bissell. Apparently, his middle name is "Kenmore".

He is left-handed. This is indicated by the fact that he wears the impound cuff on his right hand instead of the left like the rest of his friends.

Although he suffers severe dust allergies, he has learned to cope with them and can use a vacuum nozzle as a sniper rifle to fight enemies (his HUD view lets him detect the finest of dust particles, which is both a blessing and a curse).

If he were in DnD, he would be an Artillerist Artificer.

My hypothetical VA casting for him is Justin Briner.

While I've been brainstorming for "Extended Vacation", I've thought of doing a spin-off side story called "Rise of the Seven" (working title) for fun, just to do the origin stories for this silly team, starting with their fearless leader, the K-Beauty Queen Hwa-soo Seol (originally created as "Courtney Cosmetic", but I've changed her name a few times over the years and I've finally settled on something I like), who can be summed up in four words: Heels, Nails, Blade, Mascara.

WALL-E humanizations as Anime-inspired school students.
