Lego Robot Wars Series 6: Knockouts Part 3

Velocity (3) v Twister - the latter who have never been flipped and never had a self-righter, will this be a moment of realisation, acceptance that it really is a neccessity to have a shrimex? Or will Velocity get the same trashing it did last series by another infamous spinner.

Battle of the axes next as Blade II (6) faces off against the very impressive Chop Suey. Fairly experienced and easy to control the former surely has the upperhand...

What is "shrimex"?

Thanks,

@NXTrobotics1

it's somehow short for "self-righting mechanism" I'm not even sure on the spelling...

[mclarenguy22]

@ochayedonald I think the correct word is 'Srimech', not 'Srimex', because of 'Self RIghting MECHanism'.

[ochayedonald]

@mclarenguy22 by George - I think he's right!

I think it's about time I listed my favourites. Brute Mayhem Twister Bladerunner B2 Chop Suey Blade Earthquaker Compressor Levitator Overdrive Thunder

@BulletDrummer

Interesting that your first five where the first five I built

[TheMokamola]

I have an idea for twisters weapon. Why not build a two sided axe like the one on blade II and spin that around at a thousand rpm?

You know, Velocity vs Twister reminds me of a mini-competition I had between two LEGO robots....it was a grudge match, between "Vesuvius" a flipper vulnerable to spinners, and "Revo", a spinner vulnerable to flippers.

@ochayedonald

Isn't it spelt 'Srimechs'? S.elf RI.ghting MECH.anism?

[Gavin17259]

I definitely think the flippers had got stronger as the series' have gone on.
