A full-size "CHAPPiE" title character robot with replica head from Neill Blomkamp's dystopian sci-fi film Chappie. Damaged, human-like law enforcement robot CHAPPiE (Sharlto Copley) fell into the hands of a group of gangsters. The film featured a number of Tetravaal police scout robots and title character CHAPPiE had the unique designation number "22".

CHAPPiE was designed and created by WETA Workshop for the film and features a huge number of designed components. This highly detailed and impressive robot with its signature blue armor shrouds was assembled from a combination of original CHAPPiE components along with components from a background robot from the assembly factor scenes, and a replica head for display. The chest plate features pyro damage from when CHAPPiE was shot in the chest.

Original CHAPPiE parts on the robot include the cheek plates; neck tube connectors; back plate; shoulder pads and drums; the left arm upper actuator; left arm shrouds; left hand; blast-damaged chest plates labeled "POLICE"; an upper abdomen piece labeled "22"; a Tetravaal-branded back plate; hip covers; both leg shrouds; and the rear end pieces. The remaining elements are from a background robot created for the assembly lines seen in the film, with the exception of the head, which is a 3D-printed replica added to complete CHAPPiE (with the exception of aforementioned cheek plates and neck tube connectors.)

This robot is intentionally weathered by production, but remains in good overall condition with some signs of wear from production and handling. Dimensions: 76" x 26" x 13" (193.25 cm x 66.25 cm x 33.25 cm)
