I like it. Maybe make the wedge a spatula instead of a triangle. It should hold stuff better (See Gruff)

Not bad, actually- maybe you could make it invertible in case the lifter breaks during a fight?

...huh. That IS quite good, actually. Although GF93 is right in that invertibility would be a bonus. That or extend the arm back so that it'd have a much better chance at self-righting.

I am building an actual robot, somewhere between a 30 pounder and a lightweight.



That is all.

Hopefully it isn't made of cardboard and propelled by a string :P

Does anyone still care? Well here's a shell spinner thingy

The lower orange "ring" is raised a few inches above the...well bottom. I couldn't figure out how to make good teeth so I just threw that on there.

If the ring was serrated I don't think it would be that bad a bot. Needs an anti-immobilizer though.

I think it would fall prey to anything that can put it on its side or back end, because it cannot self-right from those positions.

Otherwise, it's actually pretty good.
