My money is on EZ:2 hands down...

I think it's too close to call they're both champions

I prefer Tony's because of many factors... These are just some of my personal reasons

1. EZ:2 has a gear motor drive (not servos) with encoder's for power and precise control... I think he uses a sabertooth and a Kangaroo controller combo....
2. EZ:2 has much stronger motors for joints in general
3. EZ:2 has ir sensors in at least one of his hands to sense objects
4. EZ:2 has a more custom expressive face
5. EZ:2 is bristling with sensors in general
6. Tony's brilliant programming of EZ:2 alone is worth "the price of admission"
7. EZ:2 is not made of 3d printed PLA (PLA becomes brittle with time).... It is a robust strong molded plastic/ metal frame chassis....

With Tony's EZ:2 you get the whole package...

Anthony's is a great designer, but he needs a programmer on staff to at least give his customers something more than a remote controlled robot....

Again, just my opinion....

Based on what we know;

EZ:2 has sensors, XLR-One has none. Therefore EZ:2 will be able to move away from XLR-One's attacks. XLR-One would not be able to move away from EZ:2's attacks.

This alone puts the EZ:2 one up before we consider the strength of each robot's shell, structure and joints.

XLR-One may be faster moving around with a quick drive train however lacks accuracy which means supervision at all times. EZ:2 could fight the fight autonomously.

I'd favour the EZ:2 too. XLR-One needs sensors and a lot more programming - unless Anthony has just neglected to tell us about what's going on under the hood of XLR-One.

Yep, you never know if there is another revision already. It's been a few days.

Umm...I think doombot should fight.

That would not be a fair fight. Doombot would chew both them up and spit them out.

@bborastero, Great picture, what fun!

My take on this is that with my fear of creating Skynet, I have made the ALTAIR EZ:2 a pacifist, so he probably will not win the fight!
