Alistair

 
 
Designation: Set 08, "Alistair."
Model: AC - 080611
Series: Yasutomo
Type: Autonomous Construction
Description: Solid titanium carbide internal framework. Heavy lift pincer type manipulators with 7 degrees of freedom and over 62 kilonewtons of tensile strength.
Notes: Alistair's bulky, minimalist construction and lumbering locomotion may suggest a limited, awkward range of motion. In actuality he is capable of precise, almost graceful actions, delicate enough to trim a banzai or perform a tea ceremony. Not that he is ever call upon for such duties. Typically he can be found on large scale construction sites or even military supply depots.
