Here's my first replica

An American robot, Cyclone Raptor was the first spinning flywheel in Robot Wars history to chuck another robot OOTA. An honor falsely attributed to X-Terminator.

I still need to find a video of that. ;o;

Looking very nice indeed. Not too sure about improvements short of reskinning wheels, other than trying to get the side panels on the back to line up a bit better.

Now that Heat D is out, here is Haardvark! - I just wish I had made it bigger, hah.

Looking fab guys! After being very impressed by Resetti's replica of Stealth I thought I'd make one for myself. I havent reskinned the disk or motor yet. But she's a middleweight at 355.5(Kgs? Seems too much to be Kg, is it pounds?). Also working on a Mace of my own.

The way you work out IRL weight is you device it by 4 which gives you it's real weight ie. A 360kg bot would be 90 kg IRL

Put it up against Hypno-Disk for a grudge match.

Speaking of Mace, this is my finalized version of him that I will be using for Heat F. Can't remember who it was, but someone I think said I should do the flail on the back - I did and here it is!

Jonzu95 · « **Reply #4130 on:** July 12, 2012, 06:49:36 PM »

Beautiful...

NFX · « **Reply #4131 on:** July 12, 2012, 07:14:31 PM »

Very nice. Do the flails spin around at all?

Probably Rob · « **Reply #4132 on:** July 12, 2012, 07:39:31 PM »

Yes, they're on the chicken motors.

Nice! Mace looks really awesome. Great work.

Yup & you know what Team Mace said about srimechs
If you need a srimech you don't know how to drive (They later got flipped by Chaos 2).

Are the chicken motors from a component pack? They look useful. Mace looks fab, all the more incentive to finish the one I'm making. Thanks for the comments on Stealth and yes I have put it up against Hypno-Disk. My model is realistically slow so he managed to run rings around it before I could get the flipper positioned, so it got smashed, again. I've always liked Stealth and thought that it could have gone on to do well with upgraded weaponry and faster drives.

Oh, they're not from DSL? They'll be from the one you have to get in order to download the Cassius bot (cannot remember the name of it at all).

Love Stealth, by the way!

Major Tom, the Series 4 version. It would've been done several hours ago if not for my perfectionism:
