It weights about 9.8kg (11kg with that extra armour), making it a featherweight. Anyone else want to see it pitted against NST?

There's a guy in England with a robot pretty similar to mine, his is called Mecha Sombra and has decals of Sombra's eyes on top. He's now planning a flipper called Eclipse with Luna stuff on it.

I'm disappointed to see that they're both plain boxes - when I saw the title I was hoping for something a little cooler than a black box and a white circle.

Gonna side with you on this they both look pretty plain. Hopefully the flipper he builds will look cool

That is one ghetto venue. It's like in the garage of a farmer and the boundary is some spare fencing.

It's a pentagon with a spike fighting a US Robot Wars reject, and they're fighting in a goddamn hamster cage. Where the heck even is this?

I kinda half expected the saw bot to cut through the fence and murder someone

The pentagon with drill is pretty cool compared to unmodded scotbots kit 999

That is just amazing, Loved how the creator made it look like the opening of series 1 (I think it is anyway...)
