Two-Headed Death Flamingo

A bred-in-captivity combat robot, ready to duke it out!
Creation of @SnappyRobots @SamElliott64 @_joe_brown_ @felixedward99 and a lot of love from @TeamNutsRW

Craig and Felix bring you the latest from Mingo's roost as it regains its plumage ahead of its outings with @RobotsLive and @Mech_Plus 🦩🦩

If you wanna be a true ornithologist and support the avian, you can find our tees and patches over at https://t.co/6TLngwJLU8 💜

Mingo's been getting a full strip down, reweld and sandblast to get back up to spec for it’s 2024 debut in Stoke for @RobotsLive & @Mech_Plus' Mech Mania!

Wanna rep the bird? Support it’s repairs & rejuvenations with some avian-styled tees & patches at https://t.co/6Hi3dIuZQa

Mainly because they don't understand what the heck it means.
Get them while they're hot for the princely sum of £3.50 on the BBB store and you'll even get a sticker too! All profits go into the bird's upkeep 📷

Legends speak of a long lost Mingo merch item... The logo patch.
Well, we decided it was time to end the drought and send it on another run of patches, this time featuring our new logo! Iron or sew it on ya jackets, set the trends, be the talk of the town.

@MonsoonRobot @extremerobots @R34LDonaldThump @ShockbotsUK @EruptionRobot See you there babes xx

[Two-Headed Death Flamingo @2HDFlamingo]

Craig and Joe also had great showings with their featherweights, honk! and Grab Crab XL. We loved how many spectators showed interest in building & we hope to see you compete soon!

Repairs are now underway for the birds (metaphorical) flight to Éire
for RoboRiots in a few weeks!

[Two-Headed Death Flamingo @2HDFlamingo]

2 weeks since Crawley! We always love catching up with the wonderful crew at @RobotsLive for a very silly weekend, and want to thank them very much for letting us come play!

The new wheels worked great and gave us all the grip we wanted

[Two-Headed Death Flamingo @2HDFlamingo]

even when one of the 2 drive motors on the left side was counted out for the remainder of the weekend thanks to a very sad pinion. The new extra thicc/short king wings also worked a treat.

check out our fights on https://t.co/nElp2kwSM2 - thanks to our videographer Jodie!

[Two-Headed Death Flamingo @2HDFlamingo]

Next up after Crawley, Mingo will be taking an early migration to @roboRiots Dublin, followed by a return to it's spiritual nest in @extremerobots Cheltenham.
See you there!

[Two-Headed Death Flamingo @2HDFlamingo]

This weekend is very exciting for us as, for the first time in almost a year, it's a Mingo live event weekend!
We're excited to see everyone down at @RobotsLive K2 Crawley over the weekend with a few upgrades, which the eagle eyed of you may have noticed at RoboNerd...

[Two-Headed Death Flamingo @2HDFlamingo]

✅Fresh wings, now twice as thicc and a lil shorter for less flex
✅ Brand new wheels, some stunnin' machined layers of HDPE coated with some real knobbly tyre to help us get all the grip!
✅New toes, less bent from 2 years of action

[Two-Headed Death Flamingo @2HDFlamingo]

The limited edition run tees will inevitably be a bit nicer (those that have them... that fabric and screenprint quality right <3 <3) but we wanted to make sure anyone who wanted one could get involved. All money raised gets split between Mingo and Amy the amazing artist.

[Two-Headed Death Flamingo @2HDFlamingo]

What in the HECK?! Mingo’s wings have been CLIPPED! Thankfully, the sale of our t-shirts earlier this year means we'll be able to put the avian through a rigorous set of veterinary surgeries to give them back (there's a glorious big block of HDPE waiting for us next week!)... but

[Two-Headed Death Flamingo @2HDFlamingo]

none of us can remember what shape they were... help us come up with ideas by drawing some on?🤔

If you missed the tees first time round, they're now available from https://t.co/GiNUxXwPAz printed by the same guys who do our classic logo shirts, still available on the store.

[Two-Headed Death Flamingo @2HDFlamingo]

If you missed out on our fancy new Crew Shirts, they're now available as a permanent addition to the @BristolBotBuild store! 😉

[Bristol Bot Builders @BristolBotBuild]

Few more shop updates! https://t.co/vw3E0YVZbW
- We've got more stock of Repeat Drive Max, yay!
- New tees from @2HDFlamingo oo very nice.
- Our brand new N10 motors with Nuts And Bots (which are shiny and cool check them out) are available in the Antweight Drive Kit too!

[Two-Headed Death Flamingo @2HDFlamingo]

We wish Sam, Felix and the rest of our pals that ventured across the ocean (hey Rob, Jack and Strang!!) the very best of luck. Have the most fun, we're so proud of you all!!
