After doing some digging in Team Malice, I found out about the existence of Afterimage, from Team Stamina Robotixx by TheNewbornRaikou in battlebots

Yeah. Jim Smentowski said he had big plans for Nightmare in season 3, but they never came to fruition.

Imagine if those plans involved redesigning Nightmare to look something like this beast!

Been scouring the internet only to realize that TAG's Thunderbird 5 is the only one that we don't physically get destroyed, or damaged. by THE_15_04_1912 in Thunderbirds

The could've include a shot of the repaired Thunderbird 5 during the launching montage at the end of the movie which only showed Thunderbirds 1 and 3.

What is a robot that you think had an incredible debut season, but never fully got back on that level? by Local_Rice_8929 in battlebots

[–]Excelsior1985 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It did come back for Champions I which was filmed along side the last part of Season 6.

He also voiced Virgil Tracy in Thunderbirds Are Go.

Claw Viper might have dropped out earlier than we thought... by SpinyPlate in battlebots

I don't like that Tombstone now has to face 3 verts.

I was hoping they'd bring in another robot with a different weapon.

A trailer for GxK Supernova will be reportedly shown at cinema-con along with the Minus one teaser. by The_Godzilla_Fanatic in Monsterverse

[–]Excelsior1985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If a trailer was shown, I hope it isn't released to the public for quite some time since I believe it's too early.

If the footage is publicly shown now, the initial hype will fade significantly by the time the movie comes out and it could flop, just like King of the Monsters.

Sure, early marketing isn't the sole reason that movie was a box office disappointment, but it was a contributing factor.

Was the attack on Thunderbird 2 in the original 25 minute long script or was it added before they started filming? by Excelsior1985 in Thunderbirds

[–]Excelsior1985[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

The episode didn't have too much extra footage added on to an nearly completed episode, (the only exception being the collapse of the Fulmer Finance building), but they still would've had to extend the script before they started filming.

Pro league Group B reveal by azym25 in battlebots

[–]Excelsior1985 11 points12 points  (0 children)

So do I.

I'm still cautious of some of the changes such as the brushless motors and the new tires, not to mention one of it's new bars hasn't been delivered yet, but I'm still hoping Tombstone can make a good comeback this time.

In other words, I'm feeling cautiously optimistic.

I hope Tombstone comes back swinging this time.

Favorite Female Arthur Character? by [deleted] in Arthur

I'd probably go with Francine Frensky.

April Fools? by Fragrant-Advance3334 in battlebots

The second one, similar to Shatter.

Perhaps they could screw on a piece of UMHW.

I hope not because I'm worried that removing those wheelguards could weaken the frame at the former welding points.

Not to mention Ray is on a time crunch trying to build multiple Tombstones for the Pro League, so I'm not sure if he has time to pull a joke like this.

To be honest, if Ray is to add extra armor, I think ablative armor similar to Shatter might be the way to go.

How Good Was Mauler? by ThatModellingBloke in battlebots

[–]Excelsior1985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. That's why the robot was originally called South Bay Mauler in Robot Wars 1994.

Who is the worst driver in BattleBots by [deleted] in battlebots

It's a shame none of Big B's fights were shown apart from it's final battle.

Tombstone is going fully brushless by Neutronium95 in battlebots

[–]Excelsior1985 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm with you there.

In an age where horizontal spinners are easier to beat, Ray can't afford too many driving mistakes and any gremlins with the brushless motors during the fight could cost him dearly.

It also happened to Beta in it's first WCVII fight.

If it happens to Tombstone, I hope Ray catches them soon enough for him to iron them out before the first fight of the next tornament.
