Yeah, there's definitely a pit; although it's now wider and not as deep as it used to be. There was a photo of the judges in it.

It's wider, longer, and deeper.

Does anyone know of any competitors that the list hasn't gotten yet?
Yes.

Chimera
Supernova
OrTe!
Overdozer
Glitter Bomb

Would it be a big deal if I grouped together the Round One competitors in the fights I saw?

People on the Robot Wars subreddit put that initial list together so I think they'd like to have those names too. Unless you don't reddit because I could post them too.

While we're asking, do we know all the competitors in the event? Someone posted a list on Reddit (which I've put in spoiler tags at the bottom of my post) which has about 35 of the 40. Does anyone know of any competitors that the list hasn't gotten yet? (No match results though - that I'm avoiding spoilers for.)

Here's the list (warning: spoilers)

That someone would be me. I've been aware of the 5 robots that were missing from the list for a while, just didn't get round to actually updating that list. It's done now, though.

Damn, there's actually robots in that list I don't recognize.

Maybe not the robots, but some of the team members you'll definitely recognize.

Most notably, no pit.

Pretty sure there is one

So a meter deep and 2 meters wide?

The compere dude said it was four feet deep, which sounded reasonable. He also said four metres deep during the second sessions, so I guess he meant four feet again.

I'd put the pit dimensions at SeveralTantosxSeveralTantosxAbout2Tantos

Wired have this article on the new series with a few bits of info http://www.wired.co.uk/article/new-robot-wars-2016-behind-the-scenes

Picture of the new Killalot

I'm a fan.

Holy hell, that is amazing. I like the way they kept the design of the armour plating on the front of him, and the way he's gonna butcher a child, "accidentally".

I'm not too fond of the new Sir K, tbh.

What about Dead Metal?

cephalopod · « **Reply #212 on:** June 19, 2016, 08:01:37 AM »

No decent pictures of the new DM have been released yet. I mean I know for a fact they exist because I took some but...

WeN · « **Reply #213 on:** June 19, 2016, 08:05:08 AM »

Founded.

New version of house robot

cephalopod · « **Reply #214 on:** June 19, 2016, 09:11:31 AM »

Not a great picture though. Those pictures are everywhere if you only want a general overview though.

Thyrus · « **Reply #215 on:** June 19, 2016, 09:41:53 AM »

The design is nice. The mask itself looks good too but I would have like a redesign of the original one better

RedAce · « **Reply #216 on:** June 19, 2016, 09:59:29 AM »

I have mixed feelings about the new design. It's intimidating, but it looks more like Major Damage than Killalot. That's me though.

I think it looks more like Mr. Psycho.

cephalopod · « **Reply #218 on:** June 19, 2016, 10:12:52 AM »

Might be the lack of lance in that photo that's throwing it off. With lance it's definitely Killalot.

Jonzu95 · « **Reply #219 on:** June 19, 2016, 11:13:28 AM »

I prefer the old mask more.
