There are two major flaws: it looks too normal, and it's not purple.

(Nice robot! I look forward to seeing you all at Seattle.)

As part of our withholding allowance, we're planning on making some new rollers that replace the multicolored pool noodles (whatever we had around) with purple pool noodles. Painting the roof purple on Thursday has been discussed as well.

The other cool feature is all the recycled materials on the bot. All the polycarbonate used to be window protectors recovered from a school building demolition. The 1/4" aluminum was surplus aircraft material.
