  • Splash must include the original bot being replicated.
What does this mean exactly?

Glad I found out about this, truth be told I don't usually read the BOTM.  Are BFE and reskinning of existing components allowed?

Not too tricky to foresee, nice one Nostradamus.

Bro, I never enter BOTM. Not good enough.

Now I'm tempted to just to make you act the fool.

Snake isn't as impossible as it once was, thanks to DSL 3.  If I'd had more time and wasn't deadset on another idea, I might have tried it.
It would probably shatter all rules of IRL building though; the body sections would look like they were connected to each other, but each one would actually be a sort of "island," connected only to the baseplate, the motor would be hovering outside the chassis  Also, the body sections would only roll, not go in every direction like the real one.   The weapons would work, though.  SO I guess my question is, would this sort of thing be called "IRL" in spite of the unorthodox/unrealistic building techniques because it is based on something that actually exists?

I'd attempt to make TTGL myself, but it technically doesn't exist in real life, so it doesn't count.

It doesn't really say you have to make a robot that exists in real life

  • You may replicate any robot that exists in real life

That rule is necessary to prevent

"hey, let's clone a bot in my own showcase".
