Main problems I see are an NPC clipping through the perm plus your control board going through the NPC and the orange batt

Might wanna make the axe head actually rest on the support for Sawtin. Your bots are a bit bland, might wanna spice them up a bit. A box with a disc is easy but it doesn't get much attention.
also lol at most toxic guy around calling others out on this sh**

All three look pretty nice.

 I would personally make the two versions of Sawtin two different bots. I like the first version better, but the second one is alright. With some skins and minor fixes to make em cleaner these are solid IRL bots.

pro tip: resize the template so you don't have to resize the images

also use paint.net so when you do resize, it doesn't look like pixelated garbage

The robot itself seems to lack power.  You also should move the burst back so it can self-right.
I have several opinions.

I'm a little bothered by the flipper and wedge, but otherwise, this is very clean.  I like it.

Too many batteries, not enough weapons. Also, you could have a smaller chassis.

I like this bots look a lot.  But: 1. Can it selfright? And 2. You may think about tightening it up since there is lots of empty space in the chasis. That way you can beef up the armor or weaponry a little more.

it's very wide and unprotected. i think you can make it less wide (don't make it too tight though, since it's a wedge VS and it needs width to get under bots properly)

but yes, do go with armor. how is it so heavy with that few components.

I also think a circular extender would look better on the belt drive instead of a square. and i think you can get by with lighter wheels.
