Valve receives a present from WETA Workshop

[Regulith]

Valve obtained a crate from WETA Workshop the other day (the guys responsible for the TF2 laser items) and with the help of their handy-dandy Mann Co. Supply Crate Key (read: drill) they popped it open

inside, if you're too lazy to watch the video or just want to spoil it, was a beautiful life-sized Portal turret, complete with motion sensors, sounds, and a (non-lethal) attack mode

it's adorable
