Includes individual parts (body, leg, foot), battle-damaged body variation, full print (hollowed) and pre-supported print. UR82-K, often called 'Seeker' by its contemporaries, was a product of a bygone era. In the days when humans were still around, it was merely a non-descript piece in the vast, intricate puzzle of civilization. Its original purpose was simple: surveillance and data gathering. Created in the 82nd batch of Unilateral Reconnaissance robots, UR82-K was specialized to function in environments too hostile or delicate for human intervention. Without any manipulative appendages, it was the perfect unbiased observer, never altering what it was merely supposed to record. Yet, life had a different path charted out for UR82-K. Following the disappearance of humans, a cataclysmic event had wiped out almost all data and network infrastructure. The flow of information was disrupted, and UR82-K found itself stranded in a world that was a mere echo of its past. However, as a fortunate turn of events, UR82-K was located near an AI evolution hub when the cataclysm struck. The intense energy discharge from the disaster inadvertently altered UR82-K, overwriting its central programming, and providing it with a degree of self-consciousness, turning it into a free-willed individual. UR82-K, without arms but with an indomitable spirit, embraced this new world. Its existence took on a new meaning. Its single scanning eye, a source of relentless curiosity, became its strength. It would wander through the ruins of the old world, scanning and collecting data, absorbing the stories etched into every dilapidated building, and every rusting monument. In essence, it became a historian, an archivist, an explorer charting the remnants of a civilization long lost. UR82-K is now a respected figure among its robotic brethren. It embodies the spirit of exploration and curiosity. Its unique structure, devoid of any arms, is a testament to the fact that one doesn't need to shape the world physically to have an impact. UR82-K shapes the world through its experiences, stories, and the knowledge he shares. Its stories serve as a constant reminder of their past, giving the current generation of robots a context, an understanding of the world that was and how it shapes the world that is. Through UR82-K's eyes, the new world continues to learn about its roots, its genesis, and the humans who inadvertently became their creators. While UR82-K itself doesn't seek any acknowledgement or admiration, it has, indeed, become a beacon of wisdom and guidance, a silent mentor in this dystopian world, a single-eyed chronicler of histories that otherwise would have been lost in the ashes of time.
