Re: New AndyMark Product Game Hint???

I didn't notice the bit about rigid objects - half the appeal at first glance is that it is like the Entrapption Stars, but with a hex bore.

Edit: are we getting wiffle balls?

I never understood why they were made with a 0.5" square bore instead of hex. I imagine (with absolutely no real-world testing of course) these new wheels won't work as well as the entrapption stars for intakes of spheres, like the boulders this year because the stars can get more than tangential contact. I would love to see AndyMark come with with a v2 of the stars with a 0.5" hex bore just for ease of use.

As for wiffle balls, if you are talking about the am-3364 under "Customers Also Viewed", they are game pieces for FTC this year, not a mistake by AndyMark in releasing FRC game pieces early.

We'll know if we discover the game piece by accident because the thread with the discovery will get shut down.
