The "Skulloctopus from Outer Space" @ Bob Conge 2009
The "Skulloctopus from Outer Space" is a menacing bio-mechanical creature that was created by the on board computer of a space craft from a secret 1960's Soviet manned Mars mission that lost communication just before landing on the red planet.
With no way back to Earth and a limited amount of food and water, the on board computer seeks a way to survive the death of the crew and gain mobility.
Using its robotic arms the computer builds the "Skulloctopus" by joining the skull and brain of one of the cosmonauts with the tentacle legs of a creature that the crew had collected from beneath the surface of Mars. Then by incorporating parts of the landing crafts systems and downloading all of its data and programs, the on-board computer becomes the self sufficient solar powered mobil brain called "Skulloctopus". The prime directive of this other world Frankenstein is to find a way to return to Earth.
He may sound a bit grizzly, but wait till you see the other
visitors on Mars he has to do battle with this coming Spring.
