Does anyone know what the spaceship is that is carrying the Dominator Robots in the promo pics? Is it for sale anywhere?

    Petipet does a lot of cool mechanical thingies, so if you see one in his promo art that isn't part of the product, it's best to click on his name and skim through the backcatalogue to see if it's there.

    I though of the Spaceship Antares at first. It's a similar shape but I don't think the Antares opens up at the bottom like that. I couldn't find anything that looks right but the ship in the promos looksas if it has a rack designed to fit the dominator robot, It could be a one-off made just for the promos, or perhaps it's something yet to be released.

    Looking it the backcatalogue, I was a bit surprised how much of it vanished if I didn't unclick the "hide items I own" box.

    I looked at this one as well. It's a very nice spaceship and I have boughtit but it hasn't got the robot carrying rack arrangement in the promos.

    Anyway Jack is hinting that it is on it's way.

    I'll look foreward to it. My robots need their transportation.

    The robots are a petipet creation. Are you working together on this? What a galaxy dominating alliance that would be!

    I will agree that I love petipet stuff, so I'll keep my eyes open too for the new spaceship "Soon™" ;)

    I was looking at the robots and thought... Did Petipet intend for the front to be armored and the back to be exposed.  I own most of the petipet content, which is very detailed.

    It just seems a bit strange for the robots to have such an open back door. LOL

    The robots are pretty cool with far too many polys for animators, without decimating them.

    Especially, if you are planning to use them in mass quantities as visualized in the content informaiton.

    I'm OK with it, just sayin'

    FRONT

     

    REAR

    Petipet's Robots don't need an armoured back. They never turn and run from the enemy, they always charge straight at them!

    Sometimes I annoy myself with practical thinking...and other persons as well.

    My theory is those are vents. Also my second theory is that they can swivel their torsos fully around to protect that area when needed

    Doesn't really bother me.  I can workaround it easy enough.  I was just wondering why Petipet would do it this way.

    Given the masses used and the design and the name is, these are dropped in mass to charge and weaken defences and when they blow up the blow up. They're not recovered and used again...just cheap foot soldier bots. Heavy armor in the front so they can get thru defences, but after that, the Crab walkers go in etc.
