HISTORY
-------------
The theory arose in the late 1760's. Contrary to the much disputed "Lollypop Theory" (1750) which stated that rain is produced by hundred meter tall, swaying
lollypops (sending the clouds in a mouthwatering, excessive salivating state) this theory became infamous for numerous sighting incidents, firstly mentioned in pirate tales.


CONCEPT / DEVELOPMENT
----------------------------------------
Gareth Rain (1475-?) discovered a market gap in rain making and after numerous meetings and negotiations he was sent to an unknown destination in order to shake hands on a deal with God. Much like his previous celebrated invention (1493) aptly called "Beanson Toast", G. Rain's deal with God caused a stir in the circles of climatologists, religion fanatics and business people. He acquired a franchising license in return for an exclusive Beanson Toast copyrights license, which was handed to God ever since. An all-star team was assembled by God, including a bunch of resurrected top scientists and mechanical engineers, which was given to Rain for development purposes. Few years after, the very first Rain Plant is built in Southwest Scotland, in Lake District. Numerous projects followed,
in Seattle (1550), Bergen of Norway (1558) and Forni Di Sopra (1567) in Italy, to mention a few.


MODIFICATIONS / IRON FIST TU6784
------------------------
Rain Limited went big and bigger, boosting its profile and justifiably causing the rising of a profound threat by rival companies such as Snow4u and ThundersDirect, who formed an alliance and in the 5th of May 1583 tried to invade the Bergen Plant in Norway disguised as clouds. In a failed attempt, the intruders were tracked down and sent to face justice.
In order to protect the secret recipe of rain making, G. Rain asked from the undead research team to develop a prototype which could serve in both fields; Producing rain as well as being able to defend the Plant. 3 months later, the head of the team presented the new Iron Fist Plant TU6784. This monstrous building/robot sported 2 powerful arms made from enforced steel. The main torso was able to fully rotate, making the entrance to the Plant impossible. The most ingenious addition however, was the fake open door at the rear entrance, luring all the unlucky intruders who were vaporized and squeezed into the recharging clouds at the Plant's roof.

What big twist you give to the story, really clever.

I like the bluec color scheme and the composition, the robot indeed looks like half factory, half warrior.
