Another baseball analogy, ahhhhhh!

Sounds illegal.
I believe the rule states that spare parts much be "spare parts", not from another robot sitting outside in a truck or van or 2 miles down the road. The spare robot constitutes a 130 lb. spare part (singular!).
If the spare robot was dismantled and only 25 lbs. of parts were packed before the event, then it can be used on the competition robot.
Again, I don't make a good lawyer.
