Legendary.

I don't recognize the chap in the middle, but he is a corker. Where is he from.
Television is rather a frightening business. But I get all the relaxation I want from my collection of model soldiers. P. Cushing

Seconded, he looks like something out of Portal.  :)

He's an Epic Duck Studio Eyebot that Mike from the CoOp sculpted and had cast in a limited run of 300. Gone now sadly, but he gave me one and I decided to paint him up!

Lots of interest in this fella now, so Mike may well make a bunch of these and make them available. I'll let you guys know! :)

Great work on the Nickle City videos, especially the newest one. Hopefully we'll get to see the glorious leader, Napoleon, in action.

Got to love that the Eyebot was charging into action and singing the Final Fantasy victory song.
Well done on the video.

Jay and I are planning the finale to that three game arc for the next couple weeks. I'm not going to spoil anything... but Chicken and Bacon do go well together. :)

Here' a link for those that missed it!

Has Mike heard the people's cries for more Eyebots?  ;) :D  Got a chance to watch most of the last video last night, really liked that big factory ruin in the center.  Did you make it? Great stuff as always Ash.  :)

Unfortunately, the classic version of the Eye-Bot was built and designed for heavy construction, a task for which it was ill-suited.  While it was perfectly engineered for said work, it's intelligent AI become bored and this led to repeated trouble with various workplace accidents, though the original design company quantified these mishaps as mere hi-jinx.  Only so many Eye-Bots were made and these were quietly retired, the prize possession of robot enthusiasts who could affords them.  A few years before the Great Fall, Goldman Dynamics, a competitor of the original Eye-Bot company, hired the Eye-Bot designer to build a new version of the robot, dubbed the B-HOLD-R.  Instead of repetitive manual labor, the B-HOLD-R's AI was tasked to industrial security, a task it seemed to enjoy.  Industrial saboteurs, echo-terrorists, and rabble rousers all over the country soon learned to their detriment the delight, and some would overt cruelty, the B-HOLD-R seemed to take in punishing trespassers.  In the wasteland today, while the original Eye-Bot can be found in isolated places. the B-HOLD-R is much more likely to been seen.

Makes me think I might be able to "see" one on a table near me in the not too distant future...  ::)
