A E-Maxx on the front lines (and some other cool robots)!

I know it's only slightly R/C related, but scroll down to #21. It looks like the E-Maxx is good for more than just fun. I suppose they use it as a robot base because it's cheap, durable, and good in a wide variety of terrains. Some of the other robots on this page are pretty cool, too. Anyone here into robots as well as cars, who could enlighten us on some of these other 'bots?

Now all they need is a big machine gun and a Mamba Monster system.

And they better set the slipper a little loose to compensate for the recoil!

To me it looks like they were trying to do spy missions with the camera on top. They should have chosen a buggy instead.

They must remember not to pull the throttle when firing the gun with that system...Just imagine firing the gun while riding a wheelie :D. You will be shooting birds instead of the target. LOL.

But on the other hand. I don't mind having that T-rex in our living room to scare off any intruders :D.

They could do a wheelie if they wanted to shoot a heli or a plane.
