I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything
is this bot don't lost all razors in a fight before do a damage thought
I like how SSB looks. The other IRL bot doesn't look so slick and both could do with a cool skin. Also, wouldn't a piston be better than a linear actuator?
The Last one is my favourite of those 4. But all are looking good....Except you shouldn't use battlepacks in #2. Only Ants.
Can you not change SSB so the flipper is near enough flat?idk it just doesn't look that irl like that to me :P
For Blue Beetle, I'd swap the two Halfsheets in the middle for a Titanium Sheet. Same weight, but an extra 50% HP. Chassis could probably stand to be tightened up a little bit, and you might be able to get more ants instead of the Battlepacks you have at the moment.I like the look of Star Spangled Banner, though. With a good skin job, it would look approximately 43% more awesome.

In testing a Piston struggled with moving the weapon forward.

Looks very nice now. Do you not have enough weight for Titanium Angled Sheets?
Looks pretty good. Have you fixed that empty space issue ?
That skirt hinge is just asking for AGOD, unless your copy of DSL is nice and doesn't AGOD up if you ever mix metal hinges and skirt hinges XP
Just wondering, would it help if the razors were turned 180 degrees. I was thinking this because of the collision mesh.
SLG - I like the idea. Shame about the havokiness, though, but it might work with a slightly stabler setup.OC - Wheelguards look cool, certainly. Random skirt hinges on the front, however, do not. They'd best not be for MCB wedges.Demanufacture - I like the setup very much. My worry would be the entire weaponry coming off in one hit, though, but it looks like it does its purpose very well.TRFBD - Yep, I made a similar one. I think mine had E-Teks and less razors, though.SBR - That is one awesome looking IRL bot. It would be even more awesome if the piston could be raised and lowered. Chassis proportions are spot on, excellent work.Concept - Idea should definitely work, maybe somthing similar to Ludicrous Speed. Don't know why the sledgehammers are there, though, you could get some more razors up front. Maybe replace the Vlad Spike with them too. If you can refine it and get rid of the AGOD, it should be a very nice design.
