You have a point, and I agree but surely the splash could be updated by either the winner or someone else willing to do it?

It kinda defeats the purpose of having a contest if the final product is different from what people voted upon...

The key is that some people need to realize that they fail at splashes (or bots) and work with a buddy before submitting the entry for BOTM.

i don't think that Chocolate was in the same BOTM that the giraffe was in.

If we are talking about two different bots, then yes... Considering JoeBlo built it and you're only allowed one entry every month.

I was talking about when J won it with a bot that actually looked like a giraffe. Vaguely. Everyone else entered a generic HS, JoeBlo did that pink-powered flipper, which not too many people voted for because it used pinks, so the giraffe won.

I am going to guess this is referring to Chocolate, the full-body hammer, right?


Chocolates splash wasnt anything fantastic though but yeah, Hammer only botm and everyone focused on maximum efficiency, walked away with a win for  just trying something different..


JoeBlo did that pink-powered flipper, which not too many people voted for because it used pinks, so the giraffe won.


Firecracker came close in the end... it was just a little too "out there" I think for people to follow.. some proved / backed up results though


I disagreed with Giraffe because a lot of people voted it just to spite the better entries...

How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

Was gonna vote #2 but then I saw... Copals???  A Hot Wheels car ought to be a little faster than that!
 
Also the real Slideout is purple and orange...
 
Still a really cool entry but these are all pretty good and that just tipped it over the edge.

Wish I had time to build stuff, this BOTM was my calling, but June is the busiest month of the year for both of my jobs.  q.q

I had almost all of those versions, including the one that's not pictured. Please tell me it's not rare... I tore the piss out of it.

The one thats not pictured? its listed as mainline so its about as common as you can get in its production year..


Most of them are pretty basic/ common series

I have the '07 All-Stars Slideout according to that page. When me and 027 were younger we used to assign HW cars to various video game characters and race them. I believe the Slideout was assigned to Mew XD
