I prefer the Thyrus version, if I'm honest.

PM him asking to send it?

Yeah, I can't get it to look right. Maybe you can ask HereticBlue for his Panzer replica though?

Uh... that isn't my replica. It's HereticBlue's, mine doesn't look anything like that.

Ah, my mistake. I thought you were posting the picture of your bot that "didn't look right".

This tournament will be one helluva Flipperfest.

I had to ban a robot with 2 Judge Bursts, and another robot with 2 Beta Motors... Those were way too OP when I tested them.

Also, good news for GoldenFox. I change the weightclass to Heavyweight. The reason is mainly because we can get bots with stronger armors, which adds more realisticness IMO.
Only just found this, but woohoo, that's good to hear! I'll see if I can build something good with that.

This is old news. Check out the rules. I switched it to Cruiserweight since it won the poll.

Oh. Sometimes I do have a habit of starting on older pages for some reason, but Cruiserweight's still a good amount of weight for me to use.
