It looks like even tech softwares are getting in a festive mood and it certainly shows with the Toy Soldier Android by artist Gary Ham.

The new Toy Soldier Android has Ham revamp the tech mascot's look with a more festive one. The little bot's all green body has now been clothed with Christmas colors. It takes on the toy soldier look that most are familiar with around this time of year due to its association with the infamous Nutcracker story. The Android figure dressed in the blue hat, the red and white uniform, a whiskered face and even a winder embedded to the back. The arms and head are movable as well.

The Toy Soldier Android is a special edition piece, so get it now before it goes.
