The Robot Wars Appreciation Thread

[toffeejack]

Now this was TV! Remember seeing someone on here yesterday writing about Johnathan Pearce being a good commentator, he made this show with his commentary. Phillipa Forrester the hotty and that guy from Red Dwarf and corrie (Nice CV Craig).

Just popped up on Challenge so decided to watch to reminisce the good old days.

always remember nemisis getting set on fire with it's silly felt design and hypnodisc's debut:


Panic Attack was boss flying the flag for wales and the World Cup version was boss.

Harsh mate!! I know he's a bit of an arl crackhead like, but his radio show is boss and he was the second scouser in space!

Chaos 2 was king of the ring. Fave House robots? Dead metal was the one, although Shunt was a sneaky little git.

American version if anyone's interested.

Loved this when I was growing up

Forza Sgt Bash

Used to love this. Hypno disc was always my favourite, so much so I built my own version out of k'nex, with it's own heavy and fast spinning disc, and proceeded to completely destroy all my brothers toys with it.

Absolutely loved it. I had the game too.

Hypno disc, Tornado and Razor were three of my favourites. I liked Dead Metal the most out of the house robots with the big angle grinder.

I didn't like Chaos 2 for a few reasons. The bloke who made it was creepy as hell, and they kept winning everything.

The Gemini Twins were ace too. It was one robot which split up in to two as the 'fight' started. It was absolutely ace, until one broke down and they both got eliminated.

I'd masterbute to Sargent Bash being fitted with a dildo and ramming it up Phillipa Forrester.

Just putting it out there.

The Robot Wars episode of Spaced was magnificent, albeit the ending was crap.

 

[Titus Bramble]

Also, shunt was boss. I had the remote controlled toy, my brother got the crappy Matilda one. Lol.

 

[Baines' left foot]

I wish they'd make a current gen version of the game with all the old robots in it.

Remember having a remote control Sir Killalot. It was crap.

Loved Robot Wars though.

I forgot about Sir Killalot. He was a menace.
