With lego.

:frog:
It sucks that it stopped. Not just because it played such a massive part in our childhood but, imagine Razor or Hypnodisk now. Probably just sitting in the creators garage never to see another battle again.

Assuming that emote means you don't believe me, I saw it on an episode of RW, series 3 when it first came in, and how the basic design was by a 5 year old and made out of lego. This was further backed up by something similar in the RW magazine.
In other news, People should make robot wars maps for GMod, where people can host their own events and shit.

I should release the map.

Nobody had shit against Razor though, not even the House's
Gotta show some respect for Drillzilla, one of the only robots Razer couldn't scratch:

Drillzilla was a phenomenal design but ultimately had a pathetic array of weaponry, it's only strength was it's massive weight and powerful drive-train. (he made it to the finals by just shoving everyone else around)

Respect, was a good watch.
I also recall a little robot named Firestorm 4 managing to flip the infamous Mr. Psycho over, that was entertaining. Psycho drove right on top of him, looked like Firestorm was just stuck and then slowly, surely, down went Mr. Psycho.
Took like 9 people to get him upright again, that was awesome. :v:

Yay another person in the we touch robots club
Mechanical cheese was the shit!
Did anyone see it launch the other robot like 5 metres in the air? It is practically the only thing I remember about robot wars.
I remember Panic Attack and Roadblock being totally badass.
Remember when Sir Killalot was set on fire? And even the other house robots stated destroying him? Good times...
I never failed to laugh when he fell in a hole. Good times.
I always hated panic attack it just bored me i also went to see robot wars live and saw pussycat get flipped out the arena
[QUOTE=Viper202;23871518]Craig Charles was fucking awesome. Favourite show host of all time :allears:.[/QUOTE]
I was watching Robot Wars recently on Dave and saw that Craig Charles always wears really wierd clothes.
Like a long loose leather jacket with frills.

This is Gravity and Behemoth vs. Cassius Chrome and Mr. Psycho, and it is awesome.

3,2,1 activate!
Unforgettable, I [del]loved[/del] love this show, hypodisk and razor all the way. This is British TV at its best, it definitely needs to be brought back.

The latest story I could find about Robot Wars:[url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/tv_and_radio/2883697.stm]And it was never to be heard from again...[/url]
Mr Psycho's face creeps me out.
I remember watching an episode where some fucking rickety-ass shark-robot tried to fight against well-designed robots and got fuckin destroyed.
There was this one robot that was a box with legs attached to it. No weaponry, it was awesome.
Goddamn I miss this show, I loved it.
Then it sorta just vanished off the air.
I still have a remote control Growler but i can't find his battery charger :sigh:
