Derek! Yep with an exclamation point according to the cards on the TV show Had a horribly inefficient flipper from RA2's perspective and a spinner the size of a biscuit. I'm quite pleased about it, two solid days' worth of perfectionism. If this doesn't get you psyched for Series 3 then I don't know what will

It appears that the scale is slightly different between my monitors - I had the source pics in one and RA2 running in the other- don't harp on it or I'll chug a gallon of bleach, and that may further push back the release date of Series 3.

It looks great, but I can't be 100% sure with the gawdawful scaling of the comparisons.

It's awesome. I love it.

I would have used forklifts and maybe beater bars for the two-bar component, which I assume is a light flipper. Maybe a piston somewhere as well.

At any rate, I've set my copy of RA2 to be proper fullscreen on a laptop - its default settings are for square-shaped computer monitors, so that shouldn't happen again. Hopefully I won't have to go for the bleach anymore.

The Alien. I didn't know how to do the triangle things but I had a pretty good idea how do the other parts, and I'd tried this so many times that I wanted to make a finalized version for Series 3

Badnik96 · « **Reply #4306 on:** December 09, 2012, 01:39:07 AM »

...So what are the triangle pieces on the side made of?

Two sandwiched Flippermakers

Twister. Not entirely happy with how it came out, but I had to work with the imperfect shapes and sizes of components, and it sort of came together. Didn't bother with skinning the Vlad wheels because you can only change the color of the center bit It kind of resembles Minion from Battlebots. Pretty impractical design, the flywheel can't actually hit anything.

That was always a weird frieking robot. Looks nice.

259. Normally I don't do ones that are already in DSL, but I decided to make an exception because there were a few things wrong with the DSL one; most glaringly that the mini-flywheel was on the wrong side, and that it couldn't fling a robot through the air, mine can.

apart from that multiextender i honestly think that looks better than the one in dsl

Nice job, it's in the third Resetti's Wars right?

Wheels look like they could have been replaced by DSL wheels, maybe the 1's.

My lord that is excellent! Please put that on download somewhere.

Looks better than the DSL Replica! Not sure about the Multiextender, maybe you could reskin it.

It's mounted to the baseplate so it's invisible when 259 is in the arena. In hindsight I shouldn't have taken the pictures in the botlab but whatevs I guess

GoldenFox93 · « **Reply #4317 on:** December 16, 2012, 12:15:36 PM »

Fantastic! It definitely looks like it could put up a better fight than the DSL one.
