sometimes it seems like bot creations are a dime a dozen, but i hope these
might be somewhat different.  my aim was to produce bots that could be
characters within a lego minifig story.

bot 1
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=396767
is a chef bot able to make any culinary delight, or cut you with his katana.

bot 3
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=396769
is a diplomatic bot, which means hes cultured and only slightly arrogant.

bot 5
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=396771
is a repair bot, generally friendly and knowledgeable but not very brave.

bot 7
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=396773
is an all purpose shipmate, quite knowledgable of stars and maps and has the
best way to remove fleebnorks.

bot 9
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=396775
is a ship repair bot, an upgrade from the all-purpose Maddison-Bot.  It has two
extra repulsors to give it extra power.

bots 11 and 12
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=396777
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=396778
are personal defence bots with powerful 15p blasters. you wouldn't want to meet
them in a dark corridor at lights out.

and all in all,
there's always the cizzle

(...) I'm also working on a story that relies on bots as characters. I posted a number of my bots a while back, but I didn't post the ones that I expect to put in the story. I'm amazed at how much articulation you can get in a tiny package using (...) (21 years ago, 12-May-03, to lugnet.space)

(...) they you gave them different characteristics, as if they each posses their own "mechanical" personality. Especially bot 1, bot 5 and bot 12 work to me like cartoon characters. With friendly greetings, M. Moolhuysen. (21 years ago, 12-May-03, to lugnet.space)
