The Octobat Observer

The Octobat Observer

$29.99

My dear, a great explorer must have eyes everywhere—in the air, on the ground, and beneath the waves. This ingenious creature is the perfect scout, combining the intelligence of the octopus with the swiftness of the bat.

I was gifted this bizarre little guardian by my old friend, the renowned adventurer and scholar, Sir Richard Francis Burton. He claimed he synthesized its design from the blueprints of a creature that guards a hidden Persian valley which is suspended between dimensions. The large, watchful eye, he insisted, could see through any magical or mechanical disguise.

This intriguing creature is made from durable Polystone with an impressive bronze and green verdigris finish.

  • The Anatomy: The body is a fusion of parts: a central Cyclopean eye that seems to follow your movements, armored bat wings for swift flight, and a base of swirling octopus tentacles for rooting to the ground or a secure perch on an airship.

  • The Detail: The entire body is studded with rivets and brass accents, suggesting it is a heavily armored surveillance drone.

  • Scale: Its size, measuring 6 ⅜" X 2 ⅜" X 4 ¼", makes it an ideal piece for a desk corner or a high shelf where it can silently observe its surroundings. The main eye features a piece of glass overlay, adding a realistic depth to its strange, yellow gaze.

Place The Octobat Observer where you need a silent, watchful companion to oversee your work. Let it whisper of impossible hybrids, unseen realms, and the power of a single, highly focused eye.
