"Splat that blasted Cuttlefish! He thinks he's so fresh now that he lost weight! Well, I'll show him and those meddling squids and/or kids (and Octolings?). I had some help this time, with some really, really old human tech that I found deep in the domes.

Calls itself Hedlok. He was broken, but an easy fix (and upgrading him to be ink-powered) in my hands. He's a funny thing - I thought human creations tended to have two arms, but four stretchy ones?

That inspired me, and I made my bestest, baddest Octobot yet: Presenting the Octobot RM-5! With four strong punching extending hands, with lots of hidden weapons inside, and propelled by electric super-coils, it moves and fights like a dynamo. We'll show that Craig who's the best!"

Indeed, this brings in the 2017 Nintendo Switch launch title: ARMS, where fighters have the eponymous power to stretch their arms to fight in a tournament. Along the line, expert players may meet Hedlok, a vicious robot itching for a good fight. He can also be worn as a helmet, adding four extra hands on top of the fighter's two.

... Mind your head, Octavio, as Hedlok is called that for a reason - as he has some control over whomever wears him!

But seems even he wasn't good enough for whoever created him - after all, Octavio found him broken and abandoned for 12,000 years...
