Summary

In summary, this robot was the biggest build of them all using motors and parts in new and exciting ways. There were many build techniques using gears, attachment techniques, and utilizing the creative constraints of one kit. You used motors to open and close a mouth, turn a neck, and animate arms. You have sensors to bring this robot to life in an animatronic sense, where you can have Plankton interact with his environment and those around him. Finally, it allows for complete freedom for you to make him behave as you wish.

My hope is that this build inspires you to build your own creations, monsters, characters, and suchlike, and that you will go on to do incredible work with all the skills you have gained.
