Would replicas of these be allowed in RW2? They are real.
Better than GK since 2009.
I think SM is a pretty cool guy, eh builds unicycle-bots and doesn't afraid of anything

I wrote a love note to Purolator web questions/comments email address. 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Hello there!

I was delighted to see the Purolator Metal Wars   commercial on NASCAR.com yesterday.  I think it is incredibly awesome   that Purolator is associating its products with combat robotics. Fans of   the sport/hobby have seen it go from the basics of backyard hobby to   the glory of primetime television and back. It is heartwarming to see   that a company such as yours would show it a bit of needed love.
 
I have posted links on our forum for others to view the commercials and become familiar with your products.

Forum Link: https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php/topic,4631.0.html
 
GameTechMods is a website dedicated to an old Combat Robotics game   called Robot Arena 2.  The game first came out in 2001, but there are   still legions of faithful fans that play and mod the game to it's   maximum potential. These same legions can easily become Purolator fans   as well. I am hoping, with the exposure, that they will become loyal to   your products and show their support in the future.  (Sure, some of them   are too young to drive... but still.)
 
All in all, I wanted to extend my gratitude for your   advertisements.  They made me laugh & support a hobby/sport that is   close the hearts of many people. Keep up the great work! Forward this   email to the entire company and extend the thanks from all of us at   GameTechMods.
 
Oh, and they just built an Advance Auto Parts next door to my   workplace last month.  I now know where to go for Purolator parts in the   future!

You are all awesome.
Many thanks,
-Jack Daniels & The guys and gals of GameTechMods.com

I think that someone (or Somebody ;) ) should make replicas of their bots and make their commercials in RA2, post them on the GTM account and email it to them.
I built that big robot on that TV show that time
