Oh, that's what it was for

From humble beginnings my latest model is almost ready to share on thingiverse.
I'm pretty proud of these. But I've got to tweak the designs. Probably upload the designs to thingiverse this weekend.

The origin of this idea was when I saw Wil Wheaton and friends play "get bit" on his web show Table Top. The game looked really cool and I thought that it would be an easy one to make printable. And since the game uses cards I'll just take a generic robot and put a heart, club, diamond or spade on the chest. That's when the designer in me went crazy. A month later I've got 4 distinct robots with interchangeable parts with designs influenced by their icon (and hiding the icon on their head).
This first draft has motivated some design changes that as soon as I impliment (this weekend, fingers crossed) I'll upload them to thingiverse and put up for sale on my etsy.
