Carrot Vending Machine

With a shiny new pennyrabbit  piece little bunny is about to indulge in one of his favorite  nibbles.
Combining two of my favorite loves, bunnies and vending machines, this weekend was taken up with this piece. Just a bit of fun, having a break from working on the Popular Mechanoids Card Set.

Lambcicle Licks

Found this old tin sign behind my bubble gum card collection. How well I remember enjoying a refreshing Ice Cold Lambcicle Lick, on the way home. These were tough competition for Sherbet Sheep, which used to have a little packet of sherbet you would pour over the icy pole to make the sheeps' 'wool'. Many a day would I keep extra packs of sherbet to give my Sheep an extra thick winter coat, though most of it always ended up on the ground, anyway, as the poster said, Mmmmmmmmmm!
(Any memories of The Lambcie Lamb Show, Lambcicle Licks , and Sherbert Sheep are entirely fictional, and the latter bear little resemblance to any Iced Lollies consumed in my REAL childhood, with the exception perhaps of Lime Splits)

Tri-Tech Robot factories

Dug this picture out from a pile over ten years old.
A shot of Tri Techs robot production line. 

I always imagined, eventually, factory robots will become realised as classic reproductions from Japanese Tin Toys of the past. 

Antenant 5

Since the first photon particle wandered out into the universe, to that prime spark of lightning that caressed earths early atmosphere, to mankind observing photoconductivity of the element selenium,  Antenant 5 has been waiting...., waiting to be brought into existence, to conduct the electromagnetic waves like a maestro at the podium, and,  as Antenant 5 so fondly radiates, 

'Transmit that which is transmittable.' 
For this is Antenant 5s' 'reason for being', before even his creators knew so. Indeed, what other purpose drives us all? To share, express, to join, in hope of a deeper connection. To scrape past that hesitant skin of fear, and touch the common spirit, where we all dance in joy with each others song.

Cavitate Cut-Away

 From the whacky world of independent nucleic hybridisation, mechanosynthesis, creation engines and tiny rubber bands Cavitate stands tall. Although so small light has difficulty reflecting off its' various surfaces Tri-Techs'  Quantum Power Tools department  reportedly offer Cavitate in Tropical Blue, Pea-Pod Green and Thoughtful Lilac. 

Cavitate - non-cytoplasmic dynein propulsion

Card Number 27, Cavitate

Radon 12

Card back of previously published Radon 12.

 Also known as Red Crystal, due to the  colourisation of the Tidite filter from grey to deep crimson. Clean-up crews at work during the 'Dark Pine' epidemic gave the nickname 'Bloody Mary' to the overworked mechanoid. Often filters would not get changed for several months, and Radon 12s could be found dripping the thick, crystalline material, sometimes trailing for several miles in their programmed journey to eradicate the vicious scion Radon 11.
