These Robots are Horrible


How can it be 2016 and they are almost as bad as season 2 robots? Its embarrassing watching these home made robots struggle. Where is Hypondisk Chaos 2 etc?

And not one single robot with a 50 cal machine gun. Boring.

before posting, do some friggin research!

the teams only had 6 months to prepare, which isnt a lot of time. Spinners were banned on the live scene since the show stopped airing so all new spinner robots had to be made, gotta love Carbide though!

Tornado and Hypnodisc were actually considering entering but due to the time limits couldnt commit, both teams are looking into series 2 if it goes ahead.

For series 7, George Francis joined the RW technical team and therefore couldnt compete in the Wars, Chaos 2 continued to attend live events as a static display, its last appearance being at a Robot Rumble in 2007. Chaos 2 is still in the possession of George Francis, and as of 2011, now resides in his shed.

so there you go.

I taught you everything you know, but not everything I know.
