razer, storm 2, panic attack, DTK, ripper, pussycat and behmoth from robot wars have all been made into FW versions
a FW nightmare probably would be amazing due to the amount of flippers we have it would be easily over turned
There have been quite a few as far as I can recall, most of which have probably been retired (with exception of the newer creations)
A few that spring to mind are:
Pussycat > Kitty
Typhoon 2 > Typhoon Cadet
Dantomkia > DTK
Kronic > Weed
Ripper Evo > Rip Evo
Terrorhurtz > Mini Hurtz
Warhead > Predator (someday :lol: )
Not too hot on other Battlebots robots though so not sure what's been made there. Haven't seen a FW Nightmare before but I know there have been incarnations in the small weight classes over in America.
I also remember seeing an old pic of a UK featherweight that was similar in design to Nightmare but that was several years ago and I can't recall its name.
One FW replica that hasn't been done (but that I would love to see) is Big Nipper; even the name of Little Nipper is well suited to it and would slot in nicely with their other featherweights. But I imagine it would be fair challenge getting the necessary weapon mechanisms and 8-wheel drive into the weight limit and have it all working to the same degree of effectiveness as the heavyweight.
yeh i like it cus of that! :rofl: but its a great design
one that seems SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO obvious yet no one has made is a FW chaos 2!
Yeah, although doing it justice would be difficult.
You'd have to have two pneumatic rams to stay true to the heavy, but they would be a lot less powerful than one centrally-mounted big(ish) one similar to what a lot of featherweights now use. As a result, you'd have a Chaos 2 replica that would be expected to be the best in its class (like its daddy) yet would be upstaged by several other flippers.
But it would be cool nonetheless 8)
I do think that you can't stay completely true to the HW originals
Look at tiny hurtz, it doesn't have 6 buffer thanks or ridiculously small wheels on the outside
oi jamie you missed the best mini fw of that list :P
Tom armitage made a miniture version of the battlebot toro
has anyone made nightmare or have u got any scematics for it?
probably not the best idea for a second robot mate.
