Vixen has a very cool skin but the bot itself is sort of meh.  Proof that art skill is more important than building skill.
 
Drum literallly made me lol until my eyes watered.  Simply brilliant interpretation of the rules.
 
Bladefront is probably the best design here.  Gets my vote.

1 is cool looking but is nothing great otherwise, 2 is OK building-wise but not especially attractive, 3 is not a drum, 4 is both cool and efficient and somehow original (even if it's unrealistic and not the best use of weight that can be done), 5 is old (and R0B0's), and 6 is just a big unfunny attempt to use old memes.

I therefore vote for 4.

4:Looks cool but it's unrealistic.

    4 is both cool and   efficient and somehow original (even if it's unrealistic and not the   best use of weight that can be done)
    I therefore vote for 4.

ACAMS never puts in a realism rule though.
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

It is a rammer that looks like a percussion instrument. Not a drum. I have already told you this. =D

So since you just pulled off a self righteous outburst to defend that bot, I will guess you built it...

It is not a drum in the RA2 sense.
