Forgot to say in the first post a massive thanks to Jonno and Dave for their help and hard work last weekend, and to our sponsors Leigh Cables for providing the financial motivation reqiured.Also thanks to Pete Lale and Andy Steels for donating various parts and John Bell for all his help and motivation.
The Toon Army has been mobilised and is on the march lol :D

Already done Calum, nice bit of hardox. :)

Hardox is getting a bit over used... Would be nice to see some ti or ali coming back...

2) Jack The Flipper.
Your comments please
If you're keeping the same paint job, I'd say And His Flipping Army as the robot will still have the distinctive look of AHA. I prefer Jack the Flipper myself, but then I like robot names that play on words/characters etc.
My tuppence worth :)
hmmmmmmm
keeping with the toon army theme and all that new army, tuned army, ouch thats my arm-y
and his army evo lol
New Model Army?
I always thought He-man (master of the tooniverse) would be quite a cool name :rofl: :rofl:
and his flippin army
Flippin Army And His
:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
whats the point of the flipping army?
lol, i kinda like jack the flipper tho, for obvious reasons...lookin awsome chaps keep up the good work
Seing as its a flipper and you're from Gateshead Clive....
What about Magpie? :lol:
Mary Dan Ship Finpli
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
HUH ???
How about 'kill ripper with a ripper flipper which can flipping rip flip into a flipper ripper tipper'?
or 'kick jonno's a$$'? ;)
I have a good name for you clive.
TOON RAIDER
Its winning at the moment Swanny after a week of deliberation.Watch this space tomorrow for an update. :proud:
Yeah, excellent suggestion :)
And His Army's rebuild is finished.
After much delibertation we have decided that the name shall be Toon Raider.
The name Jack The Flipper has been claimed by the makers of a robot due for construction as they had already decided on that moniker for their new design.Look forward to meeting it in an arena soon. :D
More build pics and video clips will be uploaded as soon as our publicity department has got it sorted. :proud:
Looking forward to next weekend.
Team Toon Army
Vid should be uploaded tonight if Publicity Dept stops playing with his nitro car. :rofl:
Thanks again to Jonno and John Bell, we are now ready for the weekend :proud:
Toon Raider lives.

Looking very good there. I think keeping the scoop stationary and lowering the flipper arm into it is a good idea.
Yeah, looks like a flipper that can take on spinners
Leo, U reckon Toon Raider looks a bit like Hannibilito?
Agreed, all we need is the return of HW spinner matches (and some nice rich person to help out with the cost of a safe arena :P)Quote:

Best of luck with it for it's first event :)
Biggest pile of scrap i have ever seen. The most silly paintjob on the planet. and as for the name....pants would have suited it better. 8)
