Lots of them. They seem to be highly contagious too, seeing the rate at which they’re spreading around Flickr for reasons unknown. First (above) we caught Patrick Briggs‘ ‘CRABCO UNMB-TZKC Excavator’, a six-legged bucket-wielding mechanical creature that looks like it would be brilliant at making sand castles.

Joining the CRABCO Excavator in the pubic hair of the internet that is TLCB is AlexParkDesigns‘ ‘Galaxy Crab’, a cosmic crustacean of completely unknown purpose, complete with an orrery inside its transparent head. As with Patrick’s crab above, there’s more to seen Flickr via the links.

Today’s final crab-based creation is the ‘Crabvanced Diving Suit’ by Tino Poutianen, who has equipped a crab with a giant, er… crab. No we don’t know why either, but we’re so far beyond understanding at this point there’s no point trying to now. Tino’s crab mech joins the others above in a considerable crab infestation on Flickr.
