Description

It terrified the settlers of the Great Plains in the late 19th century. And we are only now beginning to fully understand what it was. And what's better than a robot duck? A robot duck that poops! The mysterious "Prairie Madness" and the incredibly inventive mind of the 18th-century inventor and artist Jacques de Vaucanson. Do not reheat BOX465. Doing so may cause it to warp or melt.
