The story
This one’s bark is definitely worse than its bite. Turning the knob on his chest counter-clockwise winds the motor in his belly. Once the spring is sufficiently contracted, a red LED behind his eye switches on to let you know he’s ready. A steady ticking racket ensues accompanying a slow side to side movement of his all-seeing eye.
