The Clockwork suit is made during, and after, the Cold War quest. With the suit, one can become a penguin after talking to Larry. Larry can be found at the Ardougne Zoo, the pier south of the Hunter snow area, the penguin iceberg, or Lumbridge sheep farm.

Note that, in order to wear the suit, you may not have anything in your hands and you are not allowed to wear a cloak.

Wearing the suit opens up a possibility of performing 8 unique penguin emotes. The emotes are used during Cold War as 3 of the emotes have to be performed to get some information. The suit is also needed to use the Agility course on the Penguin outpost.

Level 30 Crafting is needed to construct the Penguin suit at a Crafting table 3 in the Workshop of a Player-owned House. This requires a Clockwork, a piece of silk, and a regular Plank, and gives 15 Crafting experience points. ("Clockwork toy" must be selected, leading to "clockwork penguin.")

The Clockwork Suit can be wound and released, much like the Toy Mouse can. Also, catching it gives 12 Agility exp and 9 crafting exp.

The item is non-tradeable, but when the quest was first released a bug allowed another player to take it when it was wound up and released. It was reported on the forums, and was soon fixed.

For now, this device can only be worn with the assistance of Larry. It is also used for the Cold War sequel Hunt for Red Raktuber. After that quest, the suit can be worn with the help of either Chuck or Jim (polar bears).

Trivia

File:Pengie.png

The difference between a Clockwork Suit and a real Penguin.

• If you use the Commorb to scan while wearing a clockwork suit, it will be a floating Commorb.
• It is possible to have a follower out while you are in the suit.
• If you try to get out of the suit manually, (by either removing it from the cape slot or attempting to wear a cape) a message says "You appear to be stuck and need to speak to Larry/a polar bear to get out of the suit". However, if you get out of range of either Larry or a polar bear, a message appears saying "The spell wears off as you climb out of the suit, growing back to normal size". Your character manages to get out of the suit unassisted.
• At the end of the quest Cold War, you lose the suit. When winding and releasing the penguin suit, then picking it up it gives 13 agility experience.
• Players can not Rest while in the suit and on the penguin agility course.
• The Clockwork Suit was able to be taken out of the iceberg/Ardougne Zoo while equiped, via use of a Controlled Force Teleport. This was done via the Ape Atoll Jail. A player would wait with their building mode off, ready to click "Teleport To House". When one of the Gorilla guards hit a player, they would teleport, and would become knocked out in their house. They would then be forced back to the jail cell. Via the use of teletabs or jewellery, a player would go to one of the two locations, equip a penguin suit and turn building mode "ON". This would force teleport them back to their house, with the suit still equipped. This CFT was fixed shortly after the Clockwork Suit became area based (Could not be taken from the areas, at all, by any means). Also, the codeing of the Ape Atoll jail cell and its guards were modified, to make this glitch unrepeatable in any possibe way.
• In 2009, The "Penguin Glitch" allowed a player to become completely immune to NPC Attacks, making even the Chaos Elemental seem like a joke. However, this glitch was fixed on 27 October 2009.
• A glitch related to the penguin glitch caused the player's skin to stretch and mess up the character's look, this was done by talking to Malignius Mortifer, and getting him to turn you into a mushroom. Then, when you are stretching, do an emote and it should stretch even more. However this glitch has been fixed with the fix on 27 October 2009.
• Yet another glitch related to the Penguin glitch allowed players to walk as if they were "Drunk". To do this, players had to Talk to Malignius Mortifer as a "Deformed" or "Stretchy" Penguin, and they would look normal, with the Clockwork Suit still equipted. Then the glitched person would walk to the Warrior's Guild and do the Keg Balance activity. As soon as the player had one keg on their head, they would perform a Penguin emote, i.e. Wave, Spin. This would cause the player to keep the "Stance" when the keg fell off. This is known as a "Stance Capture". This was also fixed on 27 October with the fix.
• Yet another glitch related to the Penguin Glitch allowed a player to become immune to monster attacks and Attack with Magic. This was done by Using a Spirit tree, such as the one at the Grand Exchange, and teleporting to the Grand Tree (Spirit Trees did not get blocked by the Penguin suit). Then use the agility shortcut or run around to Barbarian assault, then Climb down the ladder into the waiting room. This would cause the penguin suit to unequipt, would open up the magic book, and still grant the effects of the Penguin suit. This Combined with Malignius Mortifer's Mushroom spell to become normal looking, created the image that a player was invincible. This could be used to players advantages. A level 32 with Water wave, 1 Prayer and 1 Range has obtained a Firecape with this method. Also Barbarian Assault, God Wars Dungeon and Dragons such as Mithril Dragons could be easily defeated with this. This was fixed on 26 October 2009.
