I know 612 has one very similar and I've seen a few around but this one takes the cake. Those arms extend to the top rack at the most. We, however, decided to go for the extreme, about 12 feet or so. If we put a long enough manipulator, we could unplug the rack. I'll try and get some photos up, you really must see this.

edit:wow, post 100!!
Ya when you guys extended in the pits I felt like your robot was going to fall over and hit us.

Re: Most Unique Features

The most unique feature of our robot is that the ramps are made out of like metal shelving and wood. When the judges came around they thought it looked cool. Our ramps are lifting so the other bots dive up and we hit a switch the opens our scissor jacks. We got a 12" lift with only little stroke pneumatics. Here is some pictures:
