My first robotic Minion is alive! Also, he seems slightly confused...

Minion is lonely. The desk is so tall, he can't get down. Will you be his friend? @makerbot @makerfairekc

Minion found his friends! Now we can all walk to @makerfairekc and prepare take over the world.

Uh Oh. The Minions found @tbuser's F-Bomb. I hope they don't drop it. @makerbot @makerfairekc

2 out of 3 Minions report that getting a software update tickles. @makerbot @makerfairekc

I think The Minions want to meet @bre, but they have an odd way of asking. @makerbot @makerfairekc

The Minions got to meet @bre ! Somehow I don't think it turned out as he expected @makerbot @makerfairekc

The Minions packed in their lunchbox. They're leaving @makerbot and heading to @makerfairekc

The Minions have reached Kansas City. All reports agree, the Brawndo is great! @makerfairekc @makerbot

Minions, you should really be wearing safety goggels... @makerbot @makerfairekc

The Minions are learning about circuit bending. @makerbot @makerfairekc

Preceding the 2012 Kansas City Maker Faire I created this series of photographs of The Minions for my Twitter and Facebook followers.

The campaign proved successful, and was used by MakerBot's Marketing department for the weeks prior preceding the fair.
