In a desolate landscape a small village outpost stands, buzzing with artificial, electronic life. Long abandoned technology has taken a life-of its own and is carving out an existence, reminiscent of their former creators. Here we find the home of the Junk-Bots.

Amongst the residents are many unusual characters:

“40R-G Iron”; the blacksmith, toils industriously at his furnace and anvil, creating and repairing the numerous parts needed to keep the bots going.

Outside the smith, “HND-i1”; general maintenance bot, is fitting a new lamp for the market square.

To keep day-to-day functions going “WA1T-R” lends a hand carrying water to and from the well.

At the back of the smith a solitary figure stands guard. “R0N1N” is a wandering bot for hire, taking spare parts in payment, to keep the town safe from the likes of the dark scavenger “R0G-U3” units who creep about.

The Village Of The Junk-Bots is a little oasis full of character, with lots of different stories going on all around. With aesthetics that are influenced by Japanese historical settlements and sci-fi future worlds.

From the intricately decorated smith shop, complete with rack of spare parts, forge and anvil. The market street, accented with a well and irrigation channel, surrounded by sprouting greenery. The market stall next to a tall street lamp. And the rocks and ruined walls dotted around the landscape.

Plus there are five unique brick-built Junk-Bot figures to populate the village. Key to the set, these were designed to offer a character body-form alternative to mini-figures, with the same kind of appeal.

The set offers a window into a unique new world. As a display piece with scope for play, to stand as a start-point for builders to expand far beyond the confines of the set.
