Word on the street is those things are evil, and bring nothing but bad luck to the robots they touch.

Word on the street is that this is a hot commodity. On Friday my drive team comes to me and says, "Kressly, we need $10 so we can get you something."

The thing is remarkably accurate and ours has a little 148 button to boot. My 6-year-old son is now in possession of it. I'll let you know if it produces nightmares and/or incredible design ideas soon.

edit: I swear I didn't know Sean was posting. However, I was not going to mention that the 1712 gremlins showed up after JVN was affixed to our robot.

I was very confused while I was parsing Newton video and saw one of these go by strapped to the side of the 148 machine.

I need to get me some of those for our FVC robots before Dallas.

On a side note, I now know why I've never seen JVN without a hat.

With the tie wrap around the neck and the wires above his head, it looks like he was hanged I'm just glad the horse got away.

Maybe we should sell these instead of HexBugs at the FLL tournament next year...

Unfortunately, it was three of our manly pit crew who hand-made and sold these.

Wait, I am confused. Which one is the replica?

Re: pic: JVN Doll?

ok, I'm giving up my unofficial caption contest entry for this (I just know there will be one) - but I can't resist -

I've always thought JVN was a doll.

--
It would make a great stocking stuffer and could come with a tag that says: Putting the I in Inspiration: are you ready to see this face from behind the driver's station on the opposing alliance? Get busy!

Good luck with the fundraiser and the future FIRST must-have collector's piece, 148.

Would that Karthik doll sing when you pull the string on his back?

Re: pic: JVN Doll?

This pretty, pretty princess was not included in the process of creating this creep Lil' Neuns.

Dave, I do believe some were left over so I'll make sure you can get one in Dallas.

Can these be used for Voodoo?

What makes you think they haven't been used for that already?

If they can, I know how to take 148 out of the picture next build season.

Re: pic: JVN Doll?

You don't want to take them out of the picture, you want to make them reveal their master plans and how they are doing it.

Re: pic: JVN Doll?

does that involve cutting open the dolls head after kickoff? I'll make sure to have a sharp utility knife then.

That may prove to be fatal, I was going to suggest that he post it all online. Either that or you need a skilled neurosurgeon.

The students told me:
"We made them because we love you!"

Then another one in the back said:
"...and we want to profit from your reputation."

Re: pic: JVN Doll?

UGH! What is it with these boards lately and bad jokes like that...

But wouldn't a Neunosurgeon just be anyone from 148's pit crew in 2008? Or would they be anyone from the team?

That would be a Nonosurgeon.

Maybe 121 should make a Ring Ding Rick doll to hang out with John's doll.

Don't need one of the Robowranglers...

I'm sure that http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/member.php?u=7211 would like to get at all those design plans (though he can come up with some pretty good ones too). If he can do the surgery, then you'd have your Neunosurgeon.
