I like models that make me imagine how they might be practical in their funky
details.

This would be a good utility robot for inhospitable environments.

The "hat" seems like a protector for the canopy (micrometeorites, solar
radiation, or you could work in your Looney Tunes print pajamas and nobody would
know).

The "glasses" provide a thicker covering that the pilot can still see through.

The "moustache", well, um, more protective covering.

The arms look like solid spars, but I can imagine that the round corner bars are
really a flexible material and the inner zig-zag structure acts like a muscle to
make the arms bend - much stronger than an arm with elbow joints.

I like the overall industrial style.
