Octopod, 12.5", 2020

(plastic octopus toy, plastic dome circuit board, camera lens ring, hard drive housings, respiratory therapy tubes, scrap wood, etc.)

The creatures of the oceans were concerned that the water temperature was rising making more and more of their world uninhabitable. After crafting a giant mech unit out of the junk dumped there by the land dwellers, the citizens of the deep select an ambassador to travel to the surface and demand answers. The "Octopod" makes landfall and heads inland. With it's extendable water sucking arms and elaborate filtration system, the Octopod unit can continue it's life support by visiting any passing pond, lake or pool. Will the mission be successful? Only time will tell.
