PKW Posted February 23, 2017 (edited) hi all, some months ago i made this video of lego battlebots, and now i'm posting it there because maybe you could be interested also for TC11, you'll find all the bot info in the video but i'll clone them here too, hope to bring up a brickshelf folder asap for the two bots (but i have to rebuild them due to pieces and electronics being used for witch doctor replica, cardiac two, fanmade design, killerhurts and recyclopse chassis, and other 3 500g class bot an grabber a lifer and a flipper) PULSAR weight: 700g size: 23x27x9studs weapon: 73g spinning drum with two single teeth 1900rpm strenghts: really effective wedge shape used to go under the opponent and lift them with the drum energy weaknesses: the drum isn't enough fast to launch the oppnent on the air, wheelholders may break off easily, weak wepon belt CARBIDE weight: 730g size: 32x32x9 studs weapon: 84g spinning bar 750rpm strenghts: great power and though armor, effective rear wedge weaknesses: the armor can e warped or bent and increase friction in the drivetrain, hard to control, high battery consumption here a photos from Ellis (pulsar builder) about size comparison here the video: NB it is really long, if you want, after presentation, you can skip to 11:02 to skip the fist fight (a bit long and boring) and save time without losing the most of the action! i'm keeping editing this with photos and videos from my twitter, it is hard to find them back but i'll try: CARBIDE PULSAR Edited February 23, 2017 by PKW Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rog Posted February 23, 2017 I love the idea of Lego Robot Wars/Battlebots and these two are well done representations of the actual robots. The only problem is more to do with the concept and that is that you will always be able to defend easily against PF powered weapons, they just aren't strong enough to do damage to a 'properly' build robot. I'd like to see these built with system based panels for armor that are easy detachable to simulate weapon damage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd like to see these built with system based panels for armor that are easy detachable to simulate weapon damage. that's not always true, as stated in the video made them a little bit underpowered not to break pieces because it is 100% possible to make a kinetic weapon that smash robots (even if technic) but that will seriously break/scratch pieces so i avoided that and i aimed to make weaker armor (not enough weak unluckily). for the system based bots you can watch ochayedonalds videos on youtube, there are tons of bricks flying apart, i have just built two with that system and i hope to film a video as soon as i finish to build the arena: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
