If the croc's tail could swivel like the head can then it would be even more awesome than it already is. But I doubt it will go with the Rule of 7 so never mind.

I don't think crocodiles can swivel their tails like that anyways....so it would detract from the awesomeness IMO.

Besides, it wouldn't really add anything to the bot...

Wow... The crocodile sure won all the votes! Thank you very much for all your comments!

I do believe you deserve a wiki page. Actually much more than plenty of others...

What do you mean? is that a good thing?

I think he wants the crocodile to be able to swing the tail on both sides to add more realism. I thought about it but as Kurt mentioned, because of the rule of 7 the tail would have to be much shorter so i kept it this way.

As i said before i'm going to make a brake with the walkers. I miss wheels, motors and specially destruction power.
So i designed this one to make me feel better

 





When we talk about toughness and armor, this one sure beats, by far, all previous armored bots i made.
Besides all the obvious armor, the chassis are 5mm steel. Destroying this thing is not an option. It's main weapon shown in pic 3 is powered by a simple burst motor.

>trusts in its armor to damage and wear down the opponents weapons
>Slow speed and agility but it's compensated by the armor
>Very small for a HW makes it a hard hitter

>Exposed wheels are it's only downside and weak spot

Looks like a Stock style of building. All small and compact. But I imagine it might actually do okay, it looks reasonably compact. Depends on how effectively it can get under opponents, though.

Exactly what bots are you testing against? I can think of quite a few bots in NAR AI that seem like they could destroy it.
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

Aside from bots that have better wedges, I there's any other bot that could take it down easily. Even Root Beer should have a hard time with the wedge.
Clash Cubes 1 - Grey Matter (Runner-Up)
King of Karnage - Sideshow Freak (Runner-Up, Best Engineered)
Rust In Pieces - Paper Cut 3 (Grand Champion, Most Dangerous Bot)
Wheely Tag Tournament - Ion Thruster (Grand Champion, along with Ounces' DiSemboweLment)
UK vs USA - Dark Striker (Grand Champion)
Rust In Pieces 2 - Claymore (Runner-Up, Favourite Bot)
BBEANS 6 - Infection 4 (Runner-Up)
RA2 Team Championships - Serious Business, Skeksis (Runner-Up, along with Scrappy, S_M, and Badnik)
RA2 Team Championships 2 - The Other Stig (Runner-Up, along with Scrappy, S_M, Badnik, 090901, and R1885)
Replica Wars 3 - Abaddon (Runner-Up, Luckiest Bot)
BroBots - wheebot & yaybot (Runner-Up)
Robo Zone 2 - Dipper (4th place, Survival Champion, & Best Axle Bot)
ARBBC - The Covenant (3rd place, BW Rumble Winner, Most Feared BW)

Hard hitting HS, FSS, VS, SNS, etc. The bot is only protected so long as every shot strikes the wedge components, and I can see opponents (particularly VS) easily being able to get at the more juicy sides of the bot (hex plates won't hold up very long against HWs).
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

If you can somehow flip it over, you can tear apart those hex plates. They're not indestructible, and with a little luck if you hit the right ones, the entire bottom armor is gone.

it looks tough, but certainly not invincible

is it for 2 tribes ?
How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

I think that any robot that could beat that last bot consistently would probably have flail weapons.

I can't believe I haven't been looking at this showcase. I've been here way too long, and that crocodile is without a doubt the coolest robot I have ever seen. Ever. I have never seen an actual walking walker. One that takes actual steps. I am just in shock and awe at these walkers. But that crocodile, with the fast steps and the mouth and the tail and wow.

As Pwn put it...

hhhhhhhhhhhhhhnnnnnnnnggggggggggg
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

the only advice that i can tell you that wouldn't make nary make me lose rep is to downgrade armor(Steel 5 is overkill) and get plastic 10(or if you want to add more weapons, Ti5) and then get a dual(or even triple, if you can)small metal hinge wedge(metal hinge+flipper segment+small wedge),btw, can we see the insides of the bot?

Is there a list that could explain me what "HS, FSS, VS, SNS" and others mean? I still don't know how exactly you call each bot.
I used my bot a bit more and like most of my creations it also fails against spinning bots but it takes them quite a while and loss of many weapons to finally bring it down. I'm not saying that it can't be beaten, It's just the toughest armored bot i ever made so far.

The bot can easily upright itself with its burst weapon and flipper bots will damage themselves if it falls on them

it looks tough, but certainly not invincible

is it for 2 tribes ?

If you mean 2 equal bots on teamwork, well i never considered that or joining tournaments or anything like that

The bot is powered by 2 TWM3R Drive motors. here's a pic:

Oh, sorry.

HS means a Horizontal Spinner, like Locknut from DSL.

FSS means a Flail Sheck Spinner, which is basically a shell spinner that uses weapons on axle components.

VS means Vertical Spinner, like Ripblade.

SNS means a Sit and Spinner or Thwacker, like 360 Arc Pounder.
Any comments would be appreciated. :D

TWM3R Drive motors on a HW popup is SLOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW.........., ditch the back armor, and then widen the chassis so that it can fit 2 npc fasts, when placed correctly they can act as invincible armor....
