  • Typhoon family?

    How many different Typhoon robots were entered throughout the series? Ive only seen Typhoon II, so I have no idea about the others. Are they all the same basic design?

    im guessing 4:

    1 heavy
    1 middle
    2 that formed a middleweight cluster.

      IIRC:
      Typhoon - Middleweight
      Typhoon 2 - Heavyweight
      Typhoon Thunder - Lightweight
      Typhoon Lighting - Lightweight

      One of either thunder or lighting got turned into a FW.

        Was every Typhoon a spinning cone robot? Ive heard of the Typhoon Twins, is that the clusterbot of Thunder and Lightning together?

                  Which if I remember correctly had a mdf shell and the main drive bit inside was from either the MW or the HW.

                    The typhoon family is 7 individual robots, which can be put into 9 guises, which, is case you wondered, includes 870 because its the MW typhoon with a new paint job

                      Only just stumbled on this thread (dont come in here very often!)

                      Martyn, you got it right, I am surprised, usually forget a few myself!

                      Typhoon 2 did become typhoon 2 GT when we went to america (upgrade to mags)

                      We were contemplating creating an ant weight called typhoon mosquito but nothing came of it!

                      All these robots have since been retired.

                            Kody, not at all. We have since moved on the project to other things. Some of the parts from typhoon 2 will be in my own heavyweight.

                            Anthony, the twins were meant to be a male/female team. Thunder was the female bot and had a skirt that flew up when it spun up. Apart from this the robots were exactly the same.
