Another day, another extenderbot. Dual undercutter HS / tombclone this time.

Key Features:
  • 798.1 KG
  • 2X NPC Fast drive
  • 2X TWMR powering twin undercutting flywheels(Hella underpowered for a HW I know)
  • Titanuim top and bottom armour with aluminium side armour

Pics:

Exterior:


Interior:


Hopefully as close as I'll ever come to making a tombclone. Super underpowered but it's more just a gimmickbot. Might revamp it with a less generic chassis at some point.

Tried to make an entry for Yugitom's tournament and it sort of went ok but also sort of went horribly wrong.

Key Features:
  • 797.9 KG
  • 2X TWMR2 Drive
  • 2X VDMA front hinge burst pistons
  • Titanium front, top and side armour. Aluminium rear armour
  • Ridiculous length

Pics:

Exterior:


Interior (This is the best shot you're gonna get unfortunately as the bot is a complete cluster**** and the top and sides can't be removed without taking off like 40 other things):


Ended up kinda looking like the purple predator from RW Series 3. I don't know whether to think that's a good thing or not.

Decided I wasn't happy at all with that one after having another look at it so I went completely back to the drawing board. Here's what I came up with.

Key Features:
  • 756.5 KG (Hella underweight and this is with Steel 10 chassis armour. I just have no idea what to do with the weight though. Any advice is welcome)
  • Steel frontal armour, Titanium underside and top armour. Aluminium sides.
  • 2X NPC fast drive
  • 2X VDMA bursts for weaponry

Pics:

Exterior:


Interior (Again sh**ty for the same reason as the last one):

Added the ballast. Can't help but feel like it's a bit of a waste though. Any other suggestions for what I can do with a spark 40KG?

That slightly off angle angled extender on the hammer head triggers me.

sh** I didn't even notice that. Glad you called it out or I'd have sent it to Yugi like that.

Here's a new on. Heavyweight with a super underpowered drum, but a very strong drivertain. Had to use Tazbot wheels unfortunately as all smaller ones didn't touch the ground properly and all larger ones didn't look any good at all.

Key Features:
  • 798.3 KG
  • Steel front, Titanium top, bottom and rear armour. Aluminium sides.
  • 4X NPC Fast drive
  • 2X TWMR weapon power

Pics:

Exterior:


Interior (from below, and almost completely disassembled):


It has just barely enough battery power to get through a fight, but it performs pretty well in combat and I'm happy with the appearance. Any feedback and advice to improve it is more than welcome.

So I was pretty happy with the design of Exodus (The purple front hinge flipper) and decided that with a few changes it would make a fitting addition to the Bocuma series. This was the result. I added some wheelguards and made the chassis shape a little sleeker and less generic looking, and obviously switched the colour scheme. In order to fit within the weight limit I had to switch  a lot of panels though, now the front is now TI instead of Steel and basically everything else is aluminium.

Pics:

Exterior:


Interior (Another case of being basically unable to disassemble the bot unfortunately):


And here's how the series has progressed over my time here:

NPC Fasts. It's pretty zippy. Internals are a nightmare though. It's all just crammed in anywhere it'll fit.

How you make Alarm Clock Pizza is:
Step 1: You buy an alarm clock from the store, and then you have to break it and put it in the sauce.
Step 2: Fold the sauce in 5 slices and put it in the dough.
Step 3: Paint the eggs with a pitcher of a clock showing what time you want to wake up and eat pizza for breakfast.
Step 4: Put the eggs in the dough.
Step 5: Make it flat into a round shape and draw the time you want on it.
Step 6: Put some old steel to prevent other peple from stealing it.
Step 7: Make it flat and cut into 60 slices 1 for each minute in 1 our.
Step 8: Put in the oven set the timer to 30048813.2884 seconds and put the temperature on 'Volcano' setting.
Step 9: If you think it is take to long, then get yor alarm clock and set it to now so that it will ring and you can take it out.
Step 10: Take it out uv the uvin wen it is redy and go to bed. In the morning eat pizza and also eat yor hands bi mistake.

Removing stuff is the issue. A lot of stuff is attached to stuff that's clipping inside other stuff. I could remove it with BFE or a lot of patience if you really want me to.

I demand you rebuild from scratch, halting when it's time to add components that prevent viewing of internals, or only use the Lexan sheets at all times
