      Information
      Herbinator is a heavyweight robot that was built in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire. It was built in 2002 for the Sixth series of the UK Robot Wars where it failed to qualify but it came back the next year where it qualified for the Seventh series only to lose the first round of its heat to 13 Black and Lightning due to it being immobilised on its side. Herbinator was named after Herbie the famous Volkswagon and had a very powerful flipper that the team claimed could lift the weight of an elephant.
