29th December 2007 - Robo Challenge at Thinktank

The main thing with replicas is that 1 as dave said, needs to look very similar and onlyy minor differences. and 2, they need reflect the things that made their copies famous. A mini hypno would be no good with a rubbish disc, a mini Thz would be no good with a rubbish axe, And a mini chaos 2 would be no good without an awesome flipper. Thats only if your going for the full on replica may i add!! Otherwise i think its pointless, you would get more praise using that design for you own individual robot.

Hmmm
Cylon2 (pic in profile) with a nice paint job could pass as mini firestorm !!!front flipper weapon ... body not quite the same but its wot i had in workshop and its stainless as opposed to aluminium....name FIREFLY !!!

Cheers Tony

i think litte johns right... tom go and persuade your dad to make a mini kan opener.... it would be one of the most feared feather weights for sure !!! Nastier than the spinners id think !!

Mind you, i could see it costing more than the big one !!! youve got until may !!

who making mini house robots then so it looks like robots wars 8

Dad is building 2 new big ones. so you better watch out for them instead!

He said a little one would cost to much.

lol

For our may event whos up for a replicas battle then.

Il get Venom in there for sure. need rip, 360, DTK, Kitty, Venom, Little Typhoon, anybody think of any others?

I did yonks ago....mini-hurts and a mini kan-opener.....tin opener....but they are long gone
Niether worked properly !!!!

Cheers Tony

The thought of making a mini replica for a replicas battle in May is appealing but a) I cant decide who to make it of and b) could I get it done in time *wonders*

Any suggestions for replicas (preferably simpler ones) welcome :)
