Indy had explored many treacherous places in his lifetime, but the cave he found himself in now was one of the most daunting. The musty air was thick with the stench of decay, and the only sound was the crunching of bones underfoot.
As he made his way through the narrow passages, his torch flickering in the darkness, he could feel the cold, clammy walls closing in around him. And then he saw them: spiders, crawling over the walls, their beady eyes glinting in the torchlight.
Indy took a deep breath and pressed on. He knew there was something valuable hidden in this cave, and he was determined to find it. He carefully examined the skeletons, searching for any clues.
A toy/character I know nothing about. I just bought it because it's a femme-bot, that was on sale, and looked cool. Obviously she didn't come with the wrecker insignia, that's my addition so she fits in better with my Autobots.
I know it's a character from a 5 issue comic miniseries, Astrobots, written by Simon Furman of Marvel Transformers and early IDW tf fame, but I can find very little information on it save the rather vague solicitations, and it doesn't seem to be available for sale anywhere anymore. (Astrobot is a difficult term to search as it mostly pulls up cheap toys for toddlers and Knock-off transformers/star wars toys!)
I from what I can gather she's one of the protagonists of the book, apparently tasked with caring for human space -colonists in suspended animation. And the story seems to revolve around two factions of Astrobots, the heroes protecting the colonists, and the villains who want an astrobot civilization without humans. But I could be completely wrong on that!
Admittedly with it being a Simon Furman book I can't say I'm particularly interested in reading it, as he's infamous for his tone deaf treatment of women/ female-presenting transformers /robots in his writing! And even ignoring that I've generally found I don't like his writing style that much...
It's even unclear what company made the toy.
The box says toy forge / toy notch who appear to be a 3D printing company, though the toy doesn't look/feel like the typical 3D printed plastic I've handled.
(Admittedly the only 3D printed stuff I've handled are upgrade kits for transformers).
There's some indication Toy Forge may or may not be linked to Ocular Max, who themselves are probably Mastermind Creations (the third party company known for making idw style*not* Transformers). The shop I bought it from had her categorised as a Mastermind Creations figure, so I have no idea!
Whatever the backstory of the figure/character she's a cool little toy with lots of alternative hands, though unfortunately the grey paint they used is extremely vulnerable to chipping/flaking off.
This combination of characters might seem insane, perhaps even more than usual, BUT they all do have something in common. They're all my favorite characters to play as from some of my favorite beat 'em ups of all time.
