Wow you are improving

I think having a single spike at the end and having the sides taper down would be a better look
Guess who's back

My first try at an extenderbot and yes they all have bottom panels, using 2 npc fasts for drive and flat motors for very vdma burst for flipper and hammer and 2 battlepacks. the front is all steel and mostly ti or steel extenders and panels.

I like the whammer. The Grandad needs more structural support for those eyes. I wish the HS was skinned and that you posted all of this in one post.

I'd suggest you upgrade your drive, TMW3 on a HW is really slow. NPC, TMWR2 or NPCF are what I'd recommend for a HW

Beginning of a flame war cleaned. Back on topic, please.

The bot looks okay. I can't say i'm a fan of the color however. Plastic 10 seems a bit overkill for something well-protected like that.

First is pretty good, though I'd do the weapon frame a little different. That straight extender going right across is weird.
Second is alright , although the axe support is kind of garish. Drop it to one or too colors and see if you can get a better shape.
Third is solid, but the weapon support should either be one color or have a better two tone. Those guards on the tracks also just look out of place.

While the chassis is fine, the flipper itself strikes me as odd.  Is it just the two sticks or are they attached to the wedges somehow?
I have several opinions.

It's just lifter arms in the middle of the bot so slightly odd design but will reach anything on the wedges with the wedgelets.
