R-MZ Three Page Build


This is Rn-dR (Run-deer), my first Super Combiners 3-page build. I combined 2 orange and 1 yellow R-MZ bots to make this long-legged loper. Another feature that keeps this creature standing tall - a single foot/antenna piece acts as a support strut between each set of legs. This gives Rn-dR a springy way to stay upright. Zoom in on the pic above to see the strut located between the front legs!
Rn-dR has more than a little skill in balancing.
Okay, that's enough showing off now. Can you do anything  useful?
The Face Blocks enjoy a quick mode of transportation. 

Get a copy of the Poplocks Super Combiners Series 1 collection and you can make your own Rn-dR, or try to make something even bigger! You can purchase and download these templates by clicking the button below. You get four robot templates plus a page of bonus parts! Print out as many as you can make!

Even more images from Susan Blue Robot! I am completely delighted by the work she has done on these bots. Be sure to visit her blog to check out more Poplocks pics and to see all of her other fine creations!

Jim Camenga found a most interesting way to capture every angle of his Gupp-E toy! I want my next apartment to have all walls with mirrors like this!
