Where did that Tornado come from?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #312

The Aim High robot worked so well, we're going to use it for Lunacy with a different angle! Now to disguise it...

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #312

Ever since Mr. Bill's untimely demise in a bottle of Rye, Mr. Hands has drifted from job to job finally ending up as a mentor on a high school robotics in Beverly Hills.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #312

Not a bad impersonation of the Michigan Hand Map for a team from California. But the thumb is supposed to be extended. Next step, learn to do the Upper Peninsula.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #312

Master Hand has learned a new skill!
Mario "This is just Lunacy!"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #312

You think that's good, you should see what his right hand can do.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #312

"OK, who gave the robot ipecac?"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #312

Since when did Samus shoot moon rocks?

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #312

Team marketing lead:
*dream bubble* Ya know, for a fistful of dollars, that could make my day.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #312

Team 1515's Hand-built robot...

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #312

Our robot is so small it will fit in the palm of your hand.

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #312

When it came time to design their robot, Team 1515 decided to replicate the robots in the game animations.

However, they've been having some trouble lately. It seems that the opposable thumb is a lot easier to make in an animation than in real life...

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #312

Viewer: "I hope they know that they're not allowed to field a hand. That's not powered by a 12-volt battery!"

Re: CD's Unofficial Caption Contest #312
