    Ok, I'll bite :smile:. It has been quite some time since I last played but here is one I've been sitting on for awhile.

    Steel City Dynamo

    Also, Legion is pretty cool. He looks like quite the little powerhouse.

    Just wanted to post this here. The Cave Lair entrance makes a really good "Launch Platform" for a giant sized mecha. (Has the Super-Magnifier turned on for the pic.)

    And with some Munibot friends.

    Trish's nemesis! Also a mechanoid.

    The idea with this character is she is an experimental Munibot AI that gained self-awareness.
    Her first act as a sentient intelligence, hire a lawyer and sue for legal rights!

    The concept is that she was designed to function as a field battle computer, controlling large numbers of Munibots in warfare situations.

    Her nemesis was also a product of that research project, he was intended to function as an inventor, building new technologies.

    But then he went insane, so now Trish is hunting him down.

    Actually, Trish thinks he was always insane.
    Even before he became evil, he wasn't exactly normal!

    Let me guess, when the Combat Super-Magnifier comes out, we're going to see you using it all the time.

    You bet your **** I would! :biggrin:

    (As long as the venue made sense for it at least. I wouldn't use such a thing on any indoor map, that's for sure.)

    I've posted some of these in other threads but since I love seeing the robots others have dreamed up, I figured I'd join in.

    Here is Mr. Farlops:

    http://i632.photobucket.com/albums/uu43/farlops/9880_2013-03-30_00001.png
    http://i632.photobucket.com/albums/uu43/farlops/2013-06-22_00006.jpg

    He is a full conversion cyborg, which is to say, there are no organic parts left in him, his body and brain are entirely artificial. He's quite happy that he's no longer human. He wears clothes just as a habit and affectation, mostly to put the carbon units at ease.

    Next is Palace Guard, who has three different bodies:

    http://i632.photobucket.com/albums/uu43/farlops/robot05.jpg
    http://i632.photobucket.com/albums/uu43/farlops/robot06.jpg
    http://i632.photobucket.com/albums/uu43/farlops/robot07.jpg

    Each optimized for slightly different missions. Palace is from an alternate history where all humanity mysteriously disappeared leaving a civilization of machines and robots to rule the Earth.

    I have a few others but I haven't played them enough to build up a history and origin for them.

    Here's Paladin VI, the sixth Paladin Class guardian robot created by retired superhero "the Mechanist". If I get a third character slot, I'll make another of Mechanist's robots.

    Ms. Chernobyl's nemesis, Doctor Karg.

    I also have an image of what he looked like in CoV if anyone's curious.

    Happifun Security System X-4, an experimental prototype for a line of security droids from Happifun Robotics, one of the largest toy manufacturers in the world. It was accidentally activated at the end of one test cycle, when a stray energy bolt from the Qularr mothership hit Happifun Robotics Labs. It was promptly updated with new security protocols by SOCRATES.

    Circuitry, the only one character made by me with those iridculous skeleton robotic limbs. I dislike those because nobody would build any machine in this way. Especially not a fighting machine. And such limbs aren't very common for robots in comic books as well, where robots are usually looking like a pile of boxes or human wearing metallic banded tights.
    Character concept and costume was changed and no longer exists in this form.

    Autonomous Aggressor Unit, RP toon used on small time events. Those guys are Haywire's mooks.

    Yeah, that's the thing I always had a problem with.

    If you build a war machine, you're going to reinforce the joints and limbs with armor plates.

    Also. it's the mechanical equivalent of being a walking skeleton, you'd have no actual mechanized muscles to move the "bones".

    Which is why my mechanical nemesis is using lots of costume parts as armor plates, to hide the weak mechanical limbs.

    Most of his design is inspired by General Grievous as he appeared in Star Wars: The Clone Wars

    (The Early 2000's one...Not that wimpy Revenge of the Sith version...)

    Hey, hard to fault a guy when you've had your innards Force-crushed by Samuel L. Jackson's previous life a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. (Yes, that was the actual explanation for that hacking, wheezing cough.)

    I know that. Just most of the time in Both Revenge Of the Sith and the new clone wars series (Started in 2010 or 2011 I think?) he's been mainly running and being all cowardly. In the 2002 clone wars...He was a freaking monster. And I loved it!

    Continuing on the theme of robots on the march:

    Here is Mr. Farlops (As pointed to earlier.) in his late summer, Labor Day best:

    About ready to throw a chair into the amplifiers and public address system of Sapphire's party:

    farlops-ska01.jpg

    For the unforgivable crime of not playing any ska music!

    He was arrested shortly thereafter, screaming "SKA WILL BURY US ALL!"
