After watching a lot of Robot Wars Reborn and Battlebots Reborn, I decided that making replicas in stock was a true challenge to my skills in replica making.
(Custom components are too much of a hassle.)
So, without further ado, here's some house robots!

Shunt:

Matilda:

Obwalden Overlord:

I have these and a couple more in a little zip file if anyone is interested.

I bow to you, sir. You made something impossible, and it looks darn good.

Nice. That Shunt looks incredible.

I'm pretty partial to that Matilda.

Thanks guys! Here's Dead Metal:

Love it.

Man, that Dead Metal looks great too.

Philippa · « **Reply #6550 on:** June 06, 2017, 05:27:45 PM »

yooooo

If you guys think THAT was cool, just wait until I do Sir Killalot!

But for now, here's Sergeant Bash in his series 1-2 guise:

(I know he has no paintjob, but I didn't feel like it.)

The fun thing about making these stock replicas is that I don't have to go through the trouble of custom parts or components that have a greater range of customization. Although initially challenging, it makes choosing the right parts MUCH easier.

That and I can put them all up for download easily, if any of you are interested.

These are awesome dude

botbuster · « **Reply #6553 on:** June 07, 2017, 10:06:00 AM »

Say putting them up for download sounds like a great idea!

I havn't started stock in a very long time and I almost forgott how limited it is. I tried to build some replicas with some help of component freedom. turned out half decent

oh and Tommy. those are fantastic! love Dead Metal and Shunt

Thanks Thyrus! Those replicas of yours look fantastic as well.

Thanks :)

I made a few more bots.

Lock-Jaw is fun to play around with but as there are no counterweights the jaws aren't as strong as I'd like them to be

RotatoR is kinda bland looking and underwhelmingly weak.
Chromefly is the MVP though. It originally had flat servos for the weapon but even for Chromefly they were to weak

Good stuff Thyrus! I should get to work on the other 4 house robots.
