+1 - and the last 2 actually look a lot like the same bot, just with different wheels/colour/decals.

@Enigma, I can always make replicas, but not post them here. Do you want me to do so, huh?
@Craaig, Yes they are, though I made the same chassis twice.
@Massimov, I will make every bot in Alphabetical order, started from 150g class, also Matkia (That Orange bot) has already been done, and I said that I will build only 150g, 450g & 6kg bots.

You say you're "too lazy" to reskin components, when replicas are all about getting it down to the most minute details. If you're not willing to try making a good looking replica, there's really no point in trying.

If you don't like it, you can just be quiet.

That's true. They're called replicas for a reason.

*sigh*

Nothing stops you guys making those. These are mine. >.<'


(Edit)


You know what, I will keep making these, but I'm not gonna show them. It seems that I'm not a Replica Builder.

I see no real conversation going on about replicas, so i'm debating whether or not to make one just to un-derail this topic..

Since I've figured out how to BFE chassis height, I might have a stab at a T.R.A.C.I.E. rep tomorrow.

Jonzu, you didn't even put 4 slots on canonball...

Look closer, it only has 3 slots.  The middle one is just wider. :trollface
 
Also, I have to agree with Jonzu that reskinning components is a major pain since you have to edit the gmf and duplicate the txt file and stuff.  I hate doing it for regular bots and I think most of them don't absolutely need it.
 
Giving the chassis a good skin, however, is a lot easier and there's really no excuse for not skinning it.  I know you (Jonzu) can use Photoshop/Gimp/Paint.net because you make candy splashes for a lot of your bots.  Just put some of the splash effort into the skin and behold skinning magic!
 
As for the replicas, the first one needs to be flatter and would look good with the yellow ant wheels.  The second one needs to be a bit wider but is otherwise spot-on.

To lack feeling is to be dead, but to act on every feeling is to be a child.

Leveler 2 Mk 4 would be even more cool.
