I was amazed by how many robots are boxes this year, but ours isn't.

Not a box. It's a crab in a turtle shell (not a crab drive, just wide chassis mecanum so it moves sideways).

Box. It's tough to stay under 18" for the tunnel when bumper height is 16", and yet have interesting geometry. Ironically we only used the tunnel once so far I can recall, and never explicitly planned to in the first place (it just somehow worked itself into our design considerations, gradually to the point where we were almost willing to relocate all the electronics to gain 1/4" more clearance).

Still, much nicer than our refrigerator bot last year.

Well, It can score three balls in autonomous, go over the Bumps and through the tunnels, then Hang. But yah, it's a Box.:]
