HAL-2, the How-to Robot

“Watch a how-to video while Hal-2 watches you!” That was the original tagline for the semi-autonomous aid designed to assist any DIY enthusiast. As a Sophont, HAL-2 was struck with only a modicum of sentience compared to the other Sophos. So, HAL-2 instead opted to develop their autonomy through unique and complex paths to find their true sentience. To better understand themselves and their place in WASTEWORLD, they had begun journeying throughout all the desolate lands, meeting everyone and anything they could, eventually becoming a journeyman of sorts on their own terms. For an autonomous robot designed for consumer use that was first reviewed as “friend to only hobbyists and a master of nothing noteworthy,” it’s quite fitting that we now await the return of our beloved Sophont, HAL-2, from their expedition to find true autonomy, mastery of skills, and friendships to everyone and everything along the way.

(All of the action figures are 1:12 scale and have their animatronics, some with RF transmitters, built into their chests. This one has a working television as head with selectable prerecorded videos, including some "how-to" videos. Figures, colors, printing, painting, and stitching all by me.)
