The name will be: Malenkaia Baba Iaga.
Translated it reads as Little Grandmother Yaga.
I would have written the name in Cyrillic but this forum does not allow for symbols text.

For more explanations check out some Russian fairy tales.

When extrapolated to a heavy. A moving mass of 45 kg diameter 1.6 m powered with a 50 kw motor. Running at 13 krpm. And thats the weapon alone.... Ants are fun, when you could enlarge everything...

Malenkaia Baba Iaga

Babeth, you really have an appetite for unspeakable names, i was thinking in the line of Super Mario (aka SM)

Go read some Russian fairy tales and youll know why I love some of those characters.
Kashei Bessmertnye (our featherweight - still under construction) is also one of those more interesting personas in a Russian fairy tale (the one about the Phoenix).
At least they dont have trademarked names that would get me into legal trouble.:wink:
And if you really want to know... both are very evil magic-wielders.

(We found out yesterday that Marios niece has a fur dog-like toy called Pericles. Who said you cant have fun with history ?)

Whats wrong with Malenkaia Baba Yaga ?

You know my motto: the smaller the robot the larger the name.
