Themanwhofellasleep
wasn't always the polished corporate machine of today. These exclusive
pictures show some of the early manwhofellasleep prototypes that have
since been abandoned.
Model 13xb
had wheels! Yes! Wheels! And pincers instead of fingers. The theory
was that the pincers would enable it to perform operations on tiny insects.
However, this proved ill-judged, since the market wasn't looking for
insect-related operations.
You may also notice
that the wheels all point in different directions, which limited its
mobility.
If you look into
13xb's eyes, you can see a slight lingering sadness. No creature
should be so aware of its obsolescence.
