Dan Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Looks great! An army of slightly different robots would be so cool. May as well use something broken for something else! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antacost Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Brilliant! Zarkin' Brilliant! I want an army of them... Kudos, Luke! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
She-Thing Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Indeed, very unique. ^_^ You should break things more often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted July 20, 2007 Author Share Posted July 20, 2007 Thanks guys! Timbo suggested that I name each minimate after the broken part it was made from, so I am officially naming this little guy "Mouse". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrobotC Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 My wireless mouse broke today. I got angry that it broke, hulked out, and crushed it. I looked at all the cool parts that were inside, and decided to make a funky robot minimate custom. This little guy is all superglue and broken mouse parts. It turned out so well I am actually thinking of making more of them, perhaps even a little robot minimate army. I have an old 486 in my garage I could smash. What do you think? dont get mad,but do mind if i make a robo-mate?i need to ask first if its alright Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacksun1520 Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 that's awsome!! i need to go find some stuff to break BS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fujis Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 Very creative Luke! I knew there was a positive side to "hulking out"! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBT! Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm??????????i have an old game boy i dont use Why does this scare me? I think Luke needs a disclaimer saying that "Luke314pi or MMMV are not responsible for any electronics damaged during the customization process of minimates" T.

drgnrbrn316 Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 I'm more scared that someone may try to bring one of these constructs to life and we'll all suffer at its hands. Interesting inspiration and design though. Great job Luke, I may have to join in on the fun as well. TBT, lemme borrow your Xbox for a minute.

Dan Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 Yeah what if they come to life, then spread life to all the minimates, and my Venom and Kingpin attack me in my sleep, and the robot minimates take over!!! Wait, what am I saying. These are Marvel minimates! We have more heroes that villians by miles! We'll be fine. Sorry for my deranged rambling. :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted July 21, 2007 Author Share Posted July 21, 2007 Its a little hard to see, but it looks cool! I am working on another robo-mate as we speak. I should have pics up tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrobotC Posted July 21, 2007 Share Posted July 21, 2007 really what did u brake to make him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted July 24, 2007 Author Share Posted July 24, 2007 I made two more robo-mates over the last few days. The first one is made from a keyboard that my son spilled a glass of orange juice on a few months ago. It never worked again despite multiple cleanings. And thus, I give you F-Lock: This next robo-mate is made from a radar detector that stopped working about six months ago. I was supposed to call the company and get a replacement, but I forgot. So this broken piece of electronics became Fuzzbuster, complete with his glider: I just found an old network card that I don't need, and a voice recorder that I have been meaning to fix for years, so more robo-mates are definitely on the way!

Donny B Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Wow, dude Those guys are amazing! Im especially impressed with Fuzzbuster. Very creative! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antacost Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 We are now entering the tyrannical reign of F-Lock. All hail the mighty F-Lock! These are seriously cool, Luke... I thought F-Lock was awesome, then I scrolled down a bit and I saw Fuzzbuster... They look like tiny little pieces of art that you would see in some up-scale gallery.... What can I break, what can I break... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fujis Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Awesome Luke! Both look great but F-Lock is my favorite! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luke314pi Posted July 24, 2007 Author Share Posted July 24, 2007 Thanks guys! These are a blast to make, and I actually made Fuzzbuster at work. I just brought along a bag of parts and a bottle of superglue with me, and made him in my office on my lunch break. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bizklimkit Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 Those look pretty awesome. I was rebuilding a computer this weekend, so I have 2 extra motherboards and ram and shit. I was thinking about making one. I decided not to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luke314pi Posted July 24, 2007 Author Share Posted July 24, 2007 Oh man, I might have to steal another of your ideas. Maybe next year's Chaitymates project, eh? Like I said, anyone is free to make a robo-mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shamrock Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 I just took apart a really, really old digital camera. And actually, It think I might have gotten it to work with it's entire shell off. I might not want to take this apart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
