Yes.

Skyhook Models made a 10" long model, but I don't know if it's styrene or resin. It's still available on the open market.

I've seen a decent toy, too. Can't remember the maker, but it was about 10" long, too.
I'm still looking for a Bender figure...

Federation Models has it in the Skyhook Models/Model kits section. $55, though.

The kit is resin. I have seen a build up someplace where the guy hollowed it out so he could light the engines. Might have been in an issue of Modelers Resource magazine.

J-Hulk and Traveller,

Boy am I going to make you happy! There is a Bender made by Endless Enterprises: http://www.endlessresin.com/models.html I'm building the Bender right now, with the Planet Express ship waiting next! Bender is 40 bucks, but shipping is included, and even comes with the sixpack of beer! If you get him, email me, I have scans of like 6 different brands of beer labels Bender drinks if you want to make decals for them.

Both are resin, WONDERFUL quality, and available for a reasonable price! I lost 1/2 my wallet to them at Wonderfest, and I couldn't be happier! ( They also have the South Park "box of crackers" diorama!)
