others may know it as Phrizbee from battle bots, its the same robot I think just with a different paint job

edit: that fight wasnt very good, it was having technical problems, this is better http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=562CdgGxkK0&feature=related

Flipper makers painted black. They're kind of hard to see against the section I painted black.

Here's some of the German bots, sorry about the pics, some are poor quality:

Nasty Warrior

Flensbugrer Power

Das Gepack; I found this high-quality pic of the original AFTER I'd finished doing mine. While I was working on my skin, all I had were These screencaps for reference, so if it doesn't look like it should, that's why.

Press F11 at any point during the game and the screenshot will go to your "screens" folder in the RA2 directory.

OK, I'm back again after temporarily killing this discussion. This time, I've remade two of my earlier replicas.

Cassius 2
I believe I've improved on my old one in every way with this one. After Sonny Resetti showed me how to make the Flip-up Paddle properly (Thanks Sonny!), I can now mount it on the outside without it looking as bad as my original did. I also adjusted the length of the Pneumatic Ram on the back (So now it's much closer to its original 75cm approximate length), and gave it more powerful drive motors with slightly more exposed wheels, to stimulate the effect of the "Air Suspension" the real machine had.
The most visible change I think, was the paintjob, and the shape of the chassis itself. It's now slightly sloped on the sides (Like the original robot), gave the front Flip-up Paddle a more translucent look to it, and also put the Cassius 2 logo on both ends of the robot. All in all, I really like what I did with this one.

Panic Attack (Series 3)
The changes were not so major on this one, but changing a few little things about it greatly improved it in terms of both looks and fighting ability. The front is now more sloped, and spruced up the eyes a little. I'm very pleased with how they turned out, as they now make the front end look so much more like the original robot. I also was able to right on the sides with the proper font (I eventually found that Army-Style Stencilling that every other computer user in the world seems to be using!), and I also swapped around the patterns on the top. My only complaint about it is how I made the yellow maybe...a little too dark. It looks like PA Gold from Series Six! Other than that, I like this one, too.

Why do they weigh so much?

It must've been the Heavy Steel Armour I applied (It's part of AlphaSim's RW AI Pack). Anyway, other than that, what do you think?

The newest revisions look great. I like how you took the time to improve them. That is something I never really took the time to do with any of my replicas at the beginning of the showcase. Great work!

Thanks, Jack! I felt those old ones needed a bit of fine-tuning anyway. Also, I'm planning to rework Cassius 2 into a DSL machine and enter it into the "Replica Wars" = D

Heres some replicas made by me.
There the first ive ever made and 2 of them arent skinned yet
They arent the best but it was Scrap Daddy, Jack Daniels an Sonny Ressetti that made me want to start.

I know they have all already been done but it was my try at them.

please comment on them and i dont care if they are positive or negative replies.
