I cannot look at this picture without spending a minimum of 5-10 minutes without drooling over that robot, every time I see it. That was such an amazingly sleek and beautiful machine. Anyone who has not seen it in action is seriously missing out. Definitely my favorite robot of all time.

Re: best looking robot

The martian twins 70 & 494. Some of the cleanest design I've seen.

Not the clearest picture. I'm looking for my IRI pics of them.

Also as mentioned above Pink (233) in 2005 and 2006.

Re: best looking robot

1501 to me is the easy winner. This robot is incredible craftsmanship. When I see this robot at competitions I think at first it is a corporate display more than a FIRST robot. Great job up there in North Central Indiana.

When we first started in "99" there was a team from Puerto Rico I think called Croqui Power ( I know I spelled that wrong) they used to have unique airbrushed robots. They were a Baxter team if I am not mistaken. I think they are gone now?

I think I'd have to give the ugliest robot award to our team, actually. 1124's robot looked like the corpse bride. The whole thing was encased in mosquito netting. We laugh about it, though.

Yeah Scott, they are gone now as a Baxter team (FRC #0015, spelled Coqui) though I have see a team from Puerto Rico that may have some loose affiliation with them, but I know they are no longer with Baxter....you are really making me work for this one, but these are two photos of them (among others) from an offseason competition in Florida after the 2000 season. They are on the left of both photos (one a side view you can see their number 15, and the other is them straight on the camera where they are blocking another robot)
