Capricon 22 Critter Crunch

|
Some of the 2 pounders line up. Missing from this photo is Splat - the torch armed bot. |
|
|
A good view of Get Tough before his matches. |
|
A close look at Hop-sing. Notice the wicked blade (sitting on the wooden block). The problem with Hop-sing was that it didn't have much traction and once Get Tough closed it was easily pushed off. |
|
|
The contenders in the 20 pound class line up. There were actually two more bots but one was judged to be too wide and the other was easily flipped by Drywall. From right to left Drywall, Get Tough and Hop-Sing. |

|
Greg attacks a bot armed with a flipper. He wins this match. |
|
|
Fembot tackles a sportcar. The car was a lot faster but Fembot was a great pusher and ended up winning this match... |
|
|
But not the contest. Dozer plowed through the opposition finally meeting and defeating Fembot. |
|
|
After the regular contest there was a melee. This is a good shot of Splat with his tourch. |
|
|
Splat burned some plastic but didn't really hurt the other bots with his torch. And while Splat was a great 2 pounder and very difficult to push around he is finally pushed off. |
|
|
Drywall attacks Pinguin and easily flips him. |
|
|
Drywall and Get Tough meet. In the first match Get Tough uses his ramp to sweep Drywall off the table. But the crowd wanted GT to use his weapon and that resulted in a tougher contest. |
|
|
But finally Get Tough pushes Drywall off the table. |
|
|
The judge examines the damage done to Drywall. |

|
Get Tough did take some damage but in general the armor held up fairly well. Click here to see the details. |
