remember: Wedgelets are best for making wedges . You still have 24 weight left, so go all out. Looks good, btw!
That wedge setup is pretty decent actually if you do it right. I've outwedged plenty of wedgelet-equipped bots with a similar setup

This flipper could actually be really competitive. Good drive, good power behind the weapon...I think the best thing for you to do in order to make your bots stand out a lot more is give them custom skins. It's what I aim to do on all my chassis bots to make them stand out more. If you ever need help on skinning or you want me to make one for you lemme know coz I have a lot of free time atm

is it me or do those things look underpowered or lacking in battery life ?

also I believe that flipper would look better if the eyes would be closer to the frontal wedge instead of next to the back.

First take on an extenderbot, huh? Looks pretty good. Try to find a way to make at least some wheel guards, even if they are pretty fragile
I shouldn't have come here

Not a saw, lacks any sort of skeletal structure.  Sure, that name makes sense.

The robot looks tall and the random piece of armor in the center of the top of the robot looks unnecessary.
Looks practical though.  Practicality is what everyone loves in IRL.
I have several opinions.

Armor on the top actually protects your bot from opponents. Nicely done.

For that bot, I won't say that shell spinners are bad. That bot just generic. In addition, i think you should use the free weight to add a srimech pole. You can do this by attaching a round extender on the center of the bot. Not on the disc for the shell, but on the chassis part, so the pole won't spin

Those colsons on the side of the drum look awesome.
The robot itself is extremely boxy however.
If I were to make a suggestion, it would be to add some sort of decoration or wheel guard to the sides of the robot to make it not look so flat.

Definitely a step up though.
I have several opinions.

It's a box.
on wheels.
Try spicing it up a little bit. Other than that, it's pretty good.

Big fan of the drum. A more compact, less boxy chassis is definitely the step forward in improving this design.  :claping

i believe the drum chassis (okay, not actually the chassis, but the panels. you know what I mean) is too exposed, as opposed as the drum who isn't exposed enough
