Omangan Cerberus Team Puppet (Abaddon Puppet)
Omangan Puppet Soldiers were first announced on Kit Lau’s Instagram on 23/06/15. Sketches illustrate that these troops are fully robotic, humanoid in shape but may vary in appearance suggesting different models for different battlefield situations.
Kit Lau has shared some background of these soldiers, “At the beginning, they just want to develop a robot arm and leg for the wounded soldiers. But after most of the science and technology became mature, finally evolved into a military robot”

These figures are due a release in May 2017
