Can confirm there is also a cool Breaker Box/Shockwave style ant going up in the coming weeks too, so if that's your bag, hold out ;)

Haha I doubt it unfortunately. Alex doesn't seem so keen on the whole selling potentially deadly item to people who potentially don't know safety thing :P
He does do customs by commission though, get in touch with him if you want something more personal (It'll cost more but you know)

Nice, I love the idea behind this. Wonder what tools you would need to build a complete Ant.

If you base it around a Nanotwo kit (receiver/esc combo that comes with motors) basically just scissors plus maybe a drill and screwdriver.
My current bodge job ant is held together with hot glue, uses cable tie hinges and was cut with scissors and a cheap junior hacksaw. Drill/Screwdriver for the motor mounts.

I don't think either would stand up to modern bots well.
The Metanoia/G-Man chassis has history on GTM too, Haz used to own it.

I remember seeing a imgur post about that one as well when someone made a "anyone remember Robot Wars" gif.

Wasn't the last guy to own Metanoia/G-man whatever on GTM too, and he was planning to convert it into a Nerd3-themed robot? At least I seem to remember that being a thing.

That chassis is almost as cursed as Nocturne.

Looks like an Awesome.

It would take tons of money to make a robot.
and he is offering it for like 1200 dollars.
