Resist the power of the Dark Side
The stickbots are among us! Help eradicate these perverted monstrosities from the roboforge universe. What is a stickbot you ask? Read on to find out.

A stickbot is a robot that has been mutated and corrupted by evil. They are noted for having large clusters of weapons at the end of long toothpick-like arms. When they enter the gateway from bizarro world into the roboforge universe, their stick-like arms are endowed with magical powers. These powers allow them to hold the freakish amount of weight placed at the end of their gangly arms without snapping during recoil.

I have intercepted one of these creatures when it attempted to cross into our realm. Below is the data I was able to extracted during my examination of this sick and twisted specimen.
