What I Call A Good Day

I won my first OMNIBOT 2000 off of Ebay yesterday. $105.00 And then when I got home my EZ Robot package had arrived with Questor's second arm and the seven Pings I ordered.

YAY!

Sweet, Let the robot building begin! Speaking of which I really need to finish off some of my robots, and get a start on some new ideas as well. Thanks for the small kick of inspiration.

That is a good day! I am happy for you. This is the nicest little bot in my opinion. I saw that and thought surely at the last minute they are going to rocket up.

Now we have another thread we can follow that has the little bot! Yeah! What are you going to do with yours?

:)

I will also want to create a personal assistant bot using ideas from Josh's and aameralis's threads. This robot chassis has the best "look" of any I have seen. I just hope it is fairly decent shape when it arrives. Hopefully it will be here by this Saturday. I wish I could afford the other OMNIBOT 2000 that is on Ebay right now just to have extra parts. But maybe another time.

Meanwhile I must endeavor to finish Questor. Or at least get to a comfortable stopping point. So it may be a while before I jump into this new project. Like I said before...you never really finish a bot. You kinda just move on.:D

Edit: I just found out the other Omni went for $440.00!

@RGordon , congrats on your Omnibot buy. Any idea what the condition of the wheels are? Nice to hear your Ezrobot package arrived too , that's awesome:)

Not sure till I get. I hope it will be OK. The only thing that was mentioned on Ebay was that one arm is broken.

Here is the comment and pictures:

"This rare piece of robot history was recently rescued from a storage unit where he had been apparently collecting dust for years in. I have done my best to unobtrusively clean him up. Cosmetically, it is in good condition with exception of his right arm which is broken (see pictures) but can easily be set into place.
The right shoulder, and his breast plate above the tape deck are both missing their stickers as well."

What I want to know is...What is the black looking pointy thingy in the picture that shows the Omni's back?
