What in the world is this

I was checking the reapers to see if they were actually holding pods and noticed this little thing.  I probably wouldn't have seen it but the ants seemed to make it nervous causing it to rotate just a little every now and then.  I didn't move it but it appeared to be a spider.

Looks like the guy, Ive never seen one with junk stuck to its body like that.  I would assume the ants dislike it as much as they do ladybugs. 
 
Thanks
 
The "junk" is the corpses of their fallen prey that they impale on spikes on their abdomen, arranged for stealth and bird deception.

They're pretty metal
