That one definitely looks much stronger than the old one. Is it still a rear-hinged Flipper?

Yep. It's supposed to be a lot similar to Diabo666's old bot 40'.

It sucks going 0-5. You lose all 4 of your bot fights for the week and you also lose at life.

Still, it definitely looks much better than the previous one- the thingies that one had on the sides were a massive handle for wedges.

Yeah, it's one of those "it seemed like a good idea at the time" deals. Sometimes you just need to go ahead with poorer drawing so you can let hindsight take over.

Looks like a Klingon ship from Star Trek. I like it&#33;

A radical redesign of King Dedede. Now less Barrier and more Dr. P or Barracuda or whatever. :v:

The gold wedge at the front of the bot is hinged at the black part at the sides, and has the notch in front to allow the hammer to actually swing all the way down. It doesn't fire to the rear because we just want to focus everything on the front. :P

I best keep an eye on that bot, it looks destructive with that mallet.

Cool&#33; Admittedly, I was wondering whether or not you'd have Masked Dedede as the next version- though a Jet-powered Hammer with built-in Flamethrowers and Rocket Launchers would probably fall under prohibited weaponry. :P

Yeah, it technically falls under that "projectile weaponry" ban, so we have to be a bit more practical about things.

And two for one Monday&#33; Another MW redone and here is Harbinger&#33; The clamp is gone and replaced with a large plow in the front. In exchange he has two different thwack set-ups to use. The first is a "fish-hook" style thwack that can (ideally) snag onto any over-wide wedge and grab and toss them in addition to general thwack damage. The other is a more traditional thwack hammer-head with penetrating spikes.

The picture ended up rather big so I filled some white space with a bunch of Harbinger quotes. :v:

And I've cobbled together my showbot entry for LoRE 2&#33; And it's a multi-bot&#33;

4 bots&#33; 8 championships&#33; 26 wheels&#33; Zero shame&#33; They should look familiar to you, but they're each representing a different member of The Four Tops. Levi Stubbs is represented by Vendetta. Lawrence Payton is represented by Shadow Zone Forever. Renaldo "Obie" Benson is represented by Tank. Abdul "Duke" Fakir is represented by Reflector Shield.

To all 4 owners of these bots, I hope I've done at least a passable job at re-drawing them in Paint.

I thought that was actually Vendetta, your MS Paint skills are indeed commendable.
