What were your favorite bots from Robot Wars, BattleBots, Robotica, or other shows?


My top 5 favorites were: Mute 2, Kan Opener, Hypnodisc, Razer, and Typhoon 2.

Hmm...

Agree on Razor and Hypnodisk, I also loved they way tornado had interchangable weapons and most other bots didn't. And you've just gotta love Gravity's flipper.
Good evening.

Hypnodisc, any day.
But I also like DTK, Typhoon (any of them), Warhead, and I always liked Panic Attack.
I liked it even more when matilda smashed the crappy '24k' version of it.

Ooh! Forgot about Warhead. Formidable bot. How many seasons of Battlebots did it compete in?

There is already a thread like that, made by Metal Virus a while ago.

Also flippers suck, with one exception and that exception is Ziggy.

Becuse Chaos was fighting in an arena that you could be thrown out of. In battle bots, you had to wait for time to run out hope that you won, or smash your opponent to a pulp.

Battlebots was always better quality-wise, but I loved Tough as Nails and Gravity from RW. frenZy, Warhead, and Son of Whyachi were also really cool.

Razer, Stinger, Kan opener, Recyclopse and its offspring Cassius 1, 2 and 3 and also Hypno disc.
Put this onto your signature if you were part of this crappy fad in '03.

Megabyte. Conquering Clown also had plenty of funny moments in the Mick Foley version of Robot Wars.
