Ahem, a climbing xerox machine. Also known as the scariest type of xerox machine this Earth has ever seen.

Re: Best looking robot ever?

2826 from 2015 and 4488 from 2014 have to be my favorites, personally. I love the curves and functionality of 2826, and the classy LEDS and overall look that 4488 pulls off every season.

971 and 2791 from this year are pretty close runners up, as well as 33 from 2014. 971 and 2791 had some awesome flipping action while also looking polished and intricate. 33's catching flaps were enough to identify it from any stream quality, and the large logo on the back was a great edition.

1501 always seems to build beautiful bots. Now if they bring back that sort of styling for Steamworks...

Paint + rivets = awesome apparently.

Re: Best looking robot ever?

I don't have a picture of it, but the Team 60 2004 robot was quite a masterpiece as well.

I'm also rather partial to the following robot, but Team 968's 2009 robot was quite good looking too, and it wasn't half bad playing the game either.

I wasn't a student at this time (actually only nine years old, in all actuality) but didn't 254 have a very similar design to this? Or did most bots of 2009 share a similar design?
