Description
Invented by scientist and inventor Dr. Shotaro "Wannabe" Watanabe, the Roboraptor was dubbed by local news outlets as the Anti-T-Rex Super Weapon. The machine was in development for 4-5 years, alongside the dinosaur cloning project to ensure a backup plan in case an outbreak occurred. Such a crisis did indeed happen, but a little too soon, because the Roboraptor's primary weapon (laser vision) had not yet been implemented. Although it lost the first fight against its primary target, a rogue T-Rex, the Roboraptor became much more viable after the lasers were added, and had several more fights against the dinosaur. This titanium armored, state-of-the-art gyro-stabilized automaton is truly a force to be reckoned with. It was built to fight, possessing formidable close combat capabilities alongside its ranged laser attack. The Roboraptor has also been seen with a missile rack in its backside. Despite all these offensive options, combined with its armored defense, the Roboraptor does have one weakness: It is slow. As such it is possible for a more nimble opponent to overwhelm the robot, although the task of actually inflicting damage will remain a challenge.
