The new Shovelnose. Much better than the others.


By cutting weight from the chassis around the wheels, I got more weight for batteries. Now has enough to power to OHKO a few bots (It has before).

3 BSGs
14 ants
10 Razor tips
6 NPC Fasts
1mm Steel

Oh, and it won my challenge with Vertigo :D
I built that big robot on that TV show that time

That actually looks quite good. Again, depends on how effective the wedges are, like every other popup in the game. =P But I like that you're trying to degenericise it.

Wanted it to be original. It works well for something that everyone said wouldn't work.

That looks tough. Are the wedges on the side used for anti-imbolization?

I'm guessing it's partly to stop opponents going round the side and taking a wheel off, and partly for a similar purpose to R4's "ears", to kinda tip the robot forward to help self-righting.

That snowplow setup is messy. It looks cool though.

Ditch the snowplow. It has very few uses with such a setup.
