So I gather that those aren't the standard N-12 wheels?  Can we see the internals?

It wobbles around enough to not get immobilised.  :gawe:
 
EDIT: Heavy chassis is closer to one side of the sprout than the other, causing the bot to tip forwards and backwards.

I just had idea...

What if the ball was attached to a servo, so it could spin forwards and backwards, and perhaps an actuator to decide left and right?

The chassis would spin instead of the ball.

I think you could do it with the large grip mesh on bike wheels to make it mobile  ;)

Or you could make the chassis weigh more than the ball, and wouldn't that theoretically make it work?

The ball is touching the ground though, causing friction. I'm not sure if that would happen though in RA2.

They don't look at all alike IMO. Whirligig was built by the builder of nightmare.

Inspired by the recent rediscovery of Metal Virus's stock replicas, I thought I'd have a crack at making a middleweight version of one of them-

Firestorm, in the original stock. It uses DSA armour, HP Z-teks for drive, two Snapper-powered ram plates acting as a front-hinged flipper, and thanks to stacking, has over three times the power of the original replica. It self-rights well, is fast, capable of beating some of the Starcore 3 machines, and can slice bagels.

For the price of one image of Atomic's addition to GF93 Land, I'll provide a download link   ;)

I'm glad you liked it! I may also consider trying some other reps in stock.

Yep. Remember, the original Whirligig looked nothing like the last one. Only ones that were close were the 4.0 and 5.0 versions of it. You can find the 3.0 version in Replica Wars 2 (my rep that did not well at all) and the original was in a smaller box sans weapon.
