First off, congratulations and thank you for helping new teams!
As for not having the same robot, I believe that this is as it should be. The GDC works very, very hard to come up with a game where a rookie team using the basic elements in the KoP can come up with a good effective robot. With help and mentoring support from an experienced team, they can get that much more out of the experience but in the end, they will still be able to say "This is our 'bot!"
Good luck in 2007.
