Robots that are "different"

This year, I have seen more similar robots than any past year I can remember. It looks like most robots have gone with some variation of roller collector and catapult, either a high pivot catapult like team Copioli, or a low pivot catapult like team JVN (most are like the latter). There are also a sprinkling of Boom Done style bots with el-toro. There are some exceptions, like the awesome roller shooter from 383, and the cool cannon of the Robonauts.

Are there any other "different" designs out there? I would like to see something different.
