Maybeh... there is always the ever popular theory of a robot that must be constructed utilizing only wood.

Just a reminder that last years rules may not carry over to this year and those tanks may be illegal again.

Eh, I think Siri's point still stands. They're not so expensive that you're really out all that much money if they aren't legal.

Or if you're worried about back order and legality, you can order them the Saturday of Kick-off.
