User blog comment:CaliforniaKingsnake/Ranking the Series 9 competitors... by looks!/@comment-5801603-20170310154458

I've noticed a lot of robots this series are reminiscent of robots from older series, like, MR Speed Squared and Corkscrew Two as mentioned, the Hi 5 SMIDY comparison, and as mentioned elsewhere, Push to Exit and Ming 2. Heavy Metal also reminds me of Wild Thing with the big wheels wedge and low impact weaponry. Also originally I thought Rusty was Colossus somehow reinstated for another series after 2 abysmal performances. I guess it just shows how bland Ceros has ended up. Also I'd like to point out that yes Apex's bar only spins at 1750rpm but Ironside3's bar only spins at 1500rpm, but it balances out by being possibly the heaviest spinner in the competition. Speed isn't everything, MR Speed Squared only spins at 900rpm, and that was the fastest speed Hypno Disc ever span at.
