      Information
      Topbot is the 3rd heavyweight robot that was built by Team Monad from Dublin. It was built in 2003 for the Seventh series of the UK Robot Wars where it lost the first round on a judges decision of its heat. Topbot made a few appearances in live events, but mainly the Robots of Destruction events due to them being local for the team. Topbot has been retired due to the arenas not being able to take spinners, but the team fight with an improved version of their previous robot 4x4.
