Sweet. But both bots can be lower. And I think you can do Facet's side bulges from the chassis creation.

I think Mace can be improved, but I don't really know how. Maybe you can turn the front to a wedge shape and raise the burst motor. Not sure about that. My head kinda hurts today. XD

I think Mace 2 could have a wedge.. dont worry about the bottom sloping upwards just make the regular type of wedge and try a vlad spike for the flipper might get a closer look

It does have a wedge, but a very small one. And I have to admit that it makes it look a bit too boxy.

I re-did it and made the wedge a bit bigger.




Is this any better?

that looks really good but it maybe could do with being flatter and maybe a bit more wedgey

Hmmm... the wedge makes it kinda look different. Check the replica wedges. One of them might fit better for this one. :D

Made it a bit lower and changed the lifting arm.
I think this is the closest I can get to the original (apart from the opening at the front of the wedge).

Yea that is pretty close about as close as you can get without making a custom part. Nice replica though.

As my first ever replica, I made Splinter (Robot Wars Extreme version).
I'm pretty sure the ramplate could be reskinned to fit the colours better, but never mind.
The only image I could find was a Series 5 version, but they look pretty similar.
EDIT: Replaced the series 5 one with the one I used.

that's looks pretty cool Craaig.. if you wanted to do the series 4 version you just have to scatter a pile of components across the arena :P

Indeed :P.
Although Hypno was/is my favourite bot... Damn, I felt sorry for that thing.
It looked cool too :P

The "face" is painted on; it has a flipper made of 2 ram plates, but they're just plain yellow, because it's impossible to split the face between them.  As such, the flipper was tucked away when I took the picture

wow... I cant find a whole lot of words to explain those but they look great

Iron Awe 2 was in series 6 and 2.1 in series 7 (not a whole lot different I think it was just the flipper/axe power was increased)

funny fact: Iron Awe 2.1 was the only robot wars robot from that team to not be flipper out the arena lol is was instead destoryied by Typhoon 2
