"Here's my latest custom toy release: Hermit Tank, circa 1886
They are custom 3" dunnys. Metal, wood, vinyl, and clay.
Story:
The
Hermit Tanks were discovered by our team of explorers during the
Expedition of 1886 into the only known parallel world. During our team’s
stay at Titan, the great underwater city, they found these little
machines scurrying through the streets, cleaning or collecting waste.
When the subject of the hermit tanks arose during leisure time with the
natives our explorers discovered that their true origin is not known,
even to them. When Titan was constructed, the large glass domes that
incase the city were in built first. Several weeks after their
completion construction crews noticed groups of these strange tiny
creatures gathering by the glass, each day bringing more. The crews
assumed the glow of the city in construction was attracting them but
they could not investigate until the pressure inside of the dome had
reached a safe level. Divers retrieved several of the tanks initially
thinking they were crabs only to discover they were machines. The hermit
tanks breached the dome by entering on the backs of any and all objects
moving into or out of the city’s port system. Once inside the dome the
tanks just became a part of the city, like wildlife. They have a nasty
habit of firing needles of glass from the three turret-like structures
on the face of their bodies. The team noted their accuracy was
impeccable as several were seen shooting down houseflies. Our team was
told that these machines were heavily weathered by the sea and required
much attention when first introduced to the air environment. Divers
noticed these machines only came from one direction, west on the sea
floor. They followed a trail of parts and corroded hermit tanks to what
is now thought of as the location of the City of Atlantis. Hundreds of
Atlantean statues have been excavated with thousands remaining. The
remains of many tanks lie within the center of the crater surrounded by
the relics. The natives of Titan believe the hermit tanks to be refugees
of Atlantis.
The
tanks are for sale now at deeten.storenvy.com for $85 each with free
