Johnny pulls out a small, smooth metal box the size of a Rubik's cube which he keeps in his toolbelt. After pressing a small red button and tossing the box up it begins rapidly expanding and shifting until it splits into up to 3 mechanical automatons. These Lil' Automatons are 1.5 meters tall are made up of cubes and rods giving them the appearance of a toy robot. On their foreheads the have a corresponding number between 1 and 3 differentiating them from each other. They make cute beeps, boops and whirring noises (Bastion from Overwatch as a reference) as they act and when they accept a command they give a small salute.
Feeling lonely at work and putting his newfound powers and crafting capabilities to use, Johnny created the Hydraulic Automaton Nemesis Destroyer Squad or H.A.N.D.S for short. Fearing being outnumbered on contracts, Johnny took matters into his own hands and created 3 robot buddies to aid him on his missions named Sprocket (1), Ratchet (2) and Torque (3). Harnessing the pocket dimension he uses to craft items out of thin air he was able to create a small box capable of summoning his Lil' helpers but with only enough fuel to last them for a couple hours, at which point they power down and crumble away into dust.
