It looks great but why in the world would GF93 NOT suggest Cassius II?
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

I felt like going for something a little different for once- I consider Mortis to be another old favourite of mine. Although if my numbers come up in Sonny's game, maybe I'll ask him in order to keep the status quo    :approve:

I might ask for Cassius 2 when I've finished making Sonny's commission piece

Wow, S3 looks stunning. I can't believe I missed that one first time around. Mortis looks suitably awesome as well. =]
 
Kat 3 on the last page looks spectacular. I love the detail with the axe mechanism. Very nice work, Ian. :gawe:

Thanks everyone!  I've still got yet to get a reply from my "Glee" comment.  But I'm always open to suggestions for cardboard builds.

Ah, OK. I'm guessing around 8 O'clock tonight, then.

Hmm, I might do the Series 4 version of Plunderibrd just to be different from the minibots.  Kronic is a good one too, it's nice and colorful and all-around good looking, although I'm more interested in the sleek-wedge version, if that's ok.

Mute! Or did that have a pullback made of it?

If you're gonna do Plunderbird, I'd love it if you could actually pull the Series 1 version off, with the interchangeable weapons. =] That, and I think it was the coolest looking one of the saga.

For me, I thought Plunderbird 2 was the coolest- it just looked so sleek and cool with its black armour and metal badges and things, of course also having the power to match, particularly when we saw it single-handedly dispatch Dead Metal and Sergeant Bash in the trial   :approve:

It was cool, but I thought it was quite plain as well. It was a superb moment when it disposed of Bash and Dead Metal in the Trials, plus they had the frankly excellent theme song that year. But Plunderbird 1 was the coolest looking one for me, plus the interchangeable weaponry was a brilliant feature. Shame we didn't get to see more of it, it would have been much better than Dreadnaut.

Indeed- the Crowning Music of Awesome was a definite factor in its appeal, too. I wonder if anyone has the lyrics or anything?
 
And yes- next to Plunderbird 2, Plunderbird 1 was my favourite- I was so disappointed to see such a great-looking and original design crash out so early- it would at least have been more exciting to watch than Dreadnought bumping into goalposts and breaking down.
 
Still, at least they got the "Best Design" award that year, so it wasn't all for nothing.

When the noise and strength has gone, and power packs depleted
Then the mercy of their foe will surely be defeated
With ball & chain and hammer & saw, metal is destroyed
Gryo-circuits torn apart, cast into the void
Mechanical minds that have no soul and machines that have no fear
Metallic monsters fight it out, as Judgement Day draws near
As the world spins to its doom towards the end of time
The Earth is silent once again from mankinds dirty crime...

Hey Preytor!  Bigger Brother is watching you:


I had to cut out 41 polygons to make this one, I think that's a new personal record.  You really get a lot of insight into the robot while you're making it - I realized that the idea behind Bigger Brother's shape was simple, the "cat ears" are actually wheel guards, and the rest of the body is just the minimal amount of space they could take up and still have a wedge design.

A while back I offered choice of my next replica to anyone who could predict when I got flamed.  Still hasn't happened- Glee fangirls are more civil than I gave them credit for, so here's a new question, as before you can't pick a robot for which there exists pullback if you win (ludicrously impossible ones like Twn Trwn are out too).


The qeustion is: What four colours did I blend together to make Bigger Brother's distinct body colour?  Here's a list of all the colours I might have used:


Someone's got to get it eventually; there's a finite number of possible answers, only 1,215,450 to be exact

Dark Grey and Metallic silver. Twice.
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.
