How crap was the plastic bot last week! surely at least one of the kids should have churped up at the designing stage!

(although if you had armour made from extruded PTFE that could cause spinners some issues...)

Honestly when you watch battlebots robot wars looks fairly amateur. I get that they want to encourage kids/noobs etc. but they need some sort of minimum standard.

Forfeit, f**king forfeit? I thought if you can't/won't field a robot you get kicked out? Honestly it's a few good robots with a lot of amateurs.

Yep, unfortunately, Battlebots is getting my vote at the moment, i just wish they had more fights per episode and less commentating/trash talking and all that other guff the US seem to love in their shows

First fight is always 15 minutes into the show. That's valuable coffee making time.

Saw Battlebots for the first time yesterday, the main thing that struck me was how much more durable the robots were. They all just keep going, a flip or a bit of hammering doesn't slow them down at all. Much better!

Plus the fights coincided with the adverts of Shed And Buried, so with a bit of flicking between channels it was almost worth watching TV. Except, of course, for the bits with Henry Cole featuring heavily.

They sure do: https://www.my5.tv/battlebots/season-2

It had the fight someone linked to a few pages back. So this was shown somewhere/sometime else?

The Robot wars champs were on the last episode of Battlebots; they got knocked out. The best fight of the episode was this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNk5-3fGNqI (you need to select a US proxy).

Battlebots is doing if for me, I just wish they talked less and showed all the fights, rather than highlights for half of them.

The Mrs, myself and the boy are off to Glasgow to watch the filming of the next series in a few weeks.

Bit of a trek but cheap enough at £30 a flight return! Smile
