Ok, starting from Scratch, I need 15 builders to enter 2 bots each, shufflers get no additional weight advantage, however all robots get an additional 20% weight allowance for CO2 or higher capacity batteries, one of which must be stated beforehand
BAD TEMPER JR
Weight: 80 kilos
Body Shape: Rectangular, long and low. Similar dimensions to Tornado, but not invertible.
Speed: 12mph
TC: 0
GC: 7mm
Wheels: 4 inner
Armour: 6mm titanium
Power: 3x 12v batteries, powered by S28-400 Magmotors, at 24v...the usual.
Colour: Red underbelly, black sides, grey top, white weapon.
Weapon: Pneumatic knife blade, powered by CO2. Theres about 40 odd hits in it. Basically, it looks like someone stuck the blade of Overkill onto the axe arm of Dominator 2.
Srimech: The weapon goes that.
Notes: I have a little Lego model if you need pictures.
Strengths: Persistant.
Weaknessess: The arm is fairly long, so it has to be a distance away to work effectively.
SPRING-BOK!
Weight: 100 kilos
Body Shape: Firestorm.
Speed: 12mph
TC: 0.
GC: 0 at front, 7mm at sides.
Wheels: 2 inner.
Armour: 8mm titanium, covered in 2mm orange fur.
Power: 3x 12v batteries, powered by a couple of Magmotors (S28-400s).
Colour: Orange, thanks to the fur.
Weapons: A launch pad. Heres how it works...basically, the robots drive up the wedge, then the front panel, which is attached to four large car springs, fires outwards via hydraulics. A miniture piston device is attached to the panel to prevent it getting fired off, and also re-sets it. Should that fail, it does have a back-up plan (see notes).
Srimech: Two arms that extend around the side of the body, a bit like that of Philliper, only bottom hinged rather than top hinged, act as the Srimech.
Inspiration: Its named after an antelope.
Notes: This is the re-make of the former comedy yet highly sucessful robot Fluffitor, who won a previous Children In Need special. Has an in-built police siren which it activates if the going gets tough. The idea is that the oppodent will think hes about to be arrested then run off.
Strengths: Experience, unique weapon.
Weaknesses: Untested, Flammable, back-up plan probably wont work.
STATS FOR FRARRR PURPOSES...
Bad Temper Jr will have 20 kilo extra in CO2 to power his knife blade, whilst Spring-BOK! will have an extra 22 kilos of weight in batteries. I say 22 because his fur is ALSO being removed (yep, you read that right!).
