About this Platform

The Square, smallest of all robots designed by Rothchild and Co. Essentially an autonomous intelligence (allied troop position, enemy position, telemetry) gathering machine, the Square plays a pivotal part in all battlefields on both sides that Rothchild had to devise special empathy features on top of heavy armor to help lengthen their up-time in the field. Known as the "carnival effect", the Square attempts to disarm all those who come across it with sickly childish features combined with specially designed audio emissions of the phrases such as: "Why can't we just get along?" and "Come out and play", all with the tone of a small child. Variations of the Square have also made an impact in the civilian sector including emergency logistics and light cartage. Wetworks first started getting attention through his line of limited-run, original mixed-media figures, and various fan art collections based on his favorite characters from comic books, movies and TV. His approach to creation and design is driven by his desire to continuously evolve his craft through experimentation and true collaboration with fellow artists and designers. And staying true to his roots when he first dabbled in toy design, Wetworks doesn't stick to just one style or material when bringing his characters to life. Wetworks graduated with a degree in Fine Arts with a major in Industrial Design but found himself in the world of Mad Men after college. After spending almost a decade and a half creating works for clients that would make even the legendary Don Draper jealous, Wetworks decided to pursue his passion for toy design beginning with one-off customs and commissioned pieces. He hasn't looked back since.
