Exactly six matte-black ceramic legs, flat antennae, amber chest, original compact body; no elongated head or extending jaw. Takes one coordinated step, freezes beside a visitor register; exactly six legs remain attached throughout. Warm motivated street light with soft cool fill. Continuous shot.

Keep identity, scale, anatomy, costume, palette and prop count stable.
