I believe they were sold to charity.
What exactly would a charity do with them?

I have been wondering this for a while, and have yet to come across a satisfactory answer. I am hoping one of you robot combat aficionados would know something.

And they say all Sheck Spinners look the same. :P
Looks pretty effective though.

Could someone unban my ability to change my wiki page. JoeBlo banned me from changing it a while back
All right, I'll unprotect the page.

Done. Hopefully three days will be enough for him to stop.

This pleases me. Massimov is out, and I think I can defeat the rest of you. :P

Like my version better. :P Not bad though.

It looks like a pretty good idea. I might consider trying the setup of an FG, though, because I'd be worried if the side panel or one of the skirts was to get hit by a particularly speedy bot, such as Puncture.
Well, I tried out my current version against the fastest BW I could find (a bot called Mouse Trap, I think its one of yours), and it didn't have any real problems. However, I also tried an FG version, and found that it performed more poorly, primarily because the opposing bots could move freely underneath the bot, and so were rarely in a good position or orientation for the weapon. This contrasts my original design, where the V-shape could trap the bots and keep them more still.

Time for a BW!   The Contraption (as I like calling it) is a BW Hammer, with the structure of a VS. It uses three razors on a BSG for a weapon, and two astros with wide ant wheels for drive. The idea of the bot is to hit the often exposed tops of BWs. It works very well, and can take out most bot types, including HSs. However, The Contraption has a hard time dealing with VS, and should the bot be flipped over, it is mostly helpless. The two titanium skirts are there to protect the shell panel from HSs. This bot is not built to max efficiency, it was merely a proof-of-concept build. Any comments would be appreciated (I aught to come up with an abbreviation for this). :D

Very solid design. Looking at my BW's, I can find only a few who would have any chance at beating that.

Well, I modified the bot according to your guys' advice, and got this:   Basically made the chassis more compact, cut out the vulnerable poly extenders, shortened the wedges (they seem just as good if not better), and made the armor Plastic 5 (up from Steel 1). PS: I realize the center razors are overlapping a little too much. I could easily widen the chassis a tad bit, but since I am not planning on entering this in any tournaments I don't think it is that big of a deal.

You can do a bit better with extender work.
Other than completely redoing the chassis, I fail to see how that would be possible. @NFX: The exposed motors have never been a problem (they have higher HP than the chassis does), though I am considering possibly shortening the chassis so I can connect the motors directly to the mini extender.

Picking up the pace here with an MW upscale of my previous popup:   Got two NPC Fasts, six razors with green snappers, nine ant batteries, and two Firestorm Flippers for defense. It's probably my best MW popup, with a very damaging attack, and good (but not great) wedges. As always, and comments would be appreciated. :D PS: Just realized I could use the extra weight to upgrade my poly extenders, so don't mention it. :P

Very nice. Makes me want to start building some VS again.

a popup ? from you ? 
Blasphemous, ain't it? :P

Interesting use of the FF. Since it's slanted, and with the collision mesh of the component, how often do opponents get trapped between it and the main wedges?
Surprisingly enough, almost never. I too was concerned about that, but it might have been avoided due to the odd collision mesh of the Firestorm Flipper.

IT'S DRIVING ME NUTS HOW THE FF IS SLANTED
Yeah besides being crooked, it looks pretty awesome.
 Yeah it bothers me too, but due to the bizarre position of the attachment point and component itself, that was about as level as I could get it.

It been a while. I have decided to freshen things up a bit with an LW Popup:   Pretty much your standard Popup, except for the Firestorm flipper which is is great armor with 10,000 HP for only 10kg. This allowed me to get NPC Normals with two hinge wedges, which perform pretty well. Any comments would be appreciated. :D

Hmmm... I should be able to defeat Jonzu, then I will probably have to face NFX. Hopefully I can defeat him.

Grip's a bit of a misnomer, though, it's just a speed multiplier.
I was starting to suspect that. Well, with that in mind, I hereby retract my criticism.
