wooden wall-e: how many trees had to die?

Disney commissioned UK-based sculptors and a group called Morpheus Prototypes to build this wooden sculpture of Wall-E as a gift for Pixar/Disney Chief Creative Officer John Lasseter.
Here’s a closer look:
I don’t know anything about woodworking or sculpting, so I’ll leave it up to you guys to think of how long it could have taken to build this and how much it’s worth.

Pretty Awesome I must say
While we are flattered to be included on your blog I must set the record straight… unfortunately Morpheus Prototypes did not create this wooden Wall-e. It is a beautiful model and we don’t want to take credit for another master craftsman’s work.
Sincerely,
Haryn De Leon
Director of Marketing
Morpheus Prototypes, LLC
Thanks for the correction.
Sorry for the error, and thanks for pointing it out.
Thanks for the kind words and honesty Haryn . The project was one of ours. We had 8 days to build him. And no tree had to dy because the wood was free offcutts from the joinery next door! A scoop!
Cheers Guys
Or Die even!
