indeed!   Say something once, why say it again?

..... aaannddd, I'm back!   
 
During an extremely busy period of my ordinary life, I had some of typical tech issues (dead laptop & old phone) - and found myself locked out (I'm pretty sure it was operator error, lol)!
so, with some new hardware and a little help from a friend - viola!   I'm free to spam the robot community again!

I hope everyone has been doing as well as possible.   I've missed the AD and the folks.

Races are still on hold - but contenders have been added here and there.

One vintage robot that has been added, yet not repaired is this old Remco B9.   found in the wild (junk store treasure!), and missing a few bits here and there... cool old toy.   Seemed to fit.

well, Herman decided that B9 had the body that he lacked and now he's trying to get around the rules to enter the robot races.    
While he's clearly in the "Franken-bot" category, he still lacks a motor - so no hot laps for him just yet... even though it seems as he's offering me a bribe?   
Regardless, no racing for Herman at this time.  

Cheers all, 
Kirk

Welcome back! Herman Munster is the epitome of Frankenbots!

Nice to read from you, Kirk. I'm looking forward to see your next breathless races!

Ultra, Stefane - thanks!   
It might be awhile before the cabinet is back in order for races, but I'm thinking there might be some interesting "pit" vids coming in the weeks ahead.
Cheers!
