Kronic the Wedgehog. It's got the scary Kronic Face, nine spikes, and two flippers. I started with a very basic wedge design, and kept chopping pieces off until it looked like Kronic.

Nice rep, Sonny- I especially like how you did the Kronic Face

Absolutely amazing replica Sonny. Looks just like the real thing. If it wasn't made out of cardboard, you could get away with calling that a pullback. Outstanding.

Evidently that's a popular one, NFX said he wanted one too. I'm probably not going to be able to meet your asking price, but I've considered building that robot.

I would pay for "Wheely Big Cheese", "Gravity" or "Eric"...

How much would you want for it?

Technically, a machine is something created to perform a specific task, and are actually capable of being autonomous, though you usually control them directly, like powered tools

Robots, on the other hand, are not controlled directly - whether they're autonomous, or radio-controlled, so long as you aren't in contact with the main body of the system, it's a robot (like the bots in Robot Wars and Battlebots)

In short, a robot does not require an AI to be a robot, and a machine does not require the absence of AI to be a machine. It's all about its purpose and how it's controlled

why the hell are people discussing the difference between androids (sentient humanoid robots) and robots (any machine capable of movement and controlled by software) in a robot combat video.
