Re: Vanity Bumpers

When I was a senior on my old team, we asked a few sophomores make a black set of bumpers in 2010 (the first year it was required to have red/blue bumpers). After they were done, we thanked them for the "pit display bumpers" and told them we needed the red and blue ones.

Yes. Grover would not provide enough for a full set of bumpers.

Those are great. When I was walking into North Star Friday morning I was treated to the pajamas 2175 has for their robot.

They're bumper warmers. For playing in the cold northern states.

They are quite smooth, it feels great to rub them on one's face. Rugged, maybe not so much.

For background, we chose not to theme our team around Stronghold this year, and instead went with Dr. Seuss as our theme. One of our team distinctives is that we have a lot of art and theater students, and our annual theme is a big part of what makes 1339 what it is. The team is proud of their Imagery awards!

So, the vanity bumpers match our pit. Be sure to stop by and enjoy our truffula trees at CMP. We have some unusual buttons to give away, as well, and you should look out for our drive team, dressed as the Cat in the Hat, the Grinch, and Thing One and Thing Two.

Looking forward to our first ever trip to Championship!

Lightbulb Re: Vanity Bumpers

Did someone say vanity bumpers?! My specialty!

While perusing the finest silks of our local Fabricville, we came across a wonderful treasure. There was no hesitation. We purchased a roll and promptly made a set of bumpers with it.

Team 296 presents to you the tastiest, most delectable robot collision inhibitors you have ever seen- the pancake bumpers.




Underneath them, you can see our boring, FIRST regulation bumpers. Oh well. I'll try to get some better pictures later.

Waffles would be better than pancakes, but hey, they're a step in the right direction. After all, they're "butter" than what I've seen in the past, some of them are just...wawful.

Do those bumpers come in a dice-shape?
