does anyone have robotwars on dvd?
Weve got the Robot Wars DVDs - they show all this fights from Chaos 2, Hypno and Razer.
Ive got the razor DVD and the first championship one
Did they ever do a First World Championship DVD? Ive only ever seen the VHS but heard of a DVD several times.
Yes the did put it on DVD.
I wouldnt recommend it because the fights wont be what we are used to in this day and age but I found it on amazon for only £4.

Strangely, the Hypno-disc DVD misses out the fight with Evil Weevil.
Yay, Im not going crazy! I thought that the fight with Evil Weevil was missing, and I remember that one particularly well as it was mega close between the two (didnt a lot of people reckon Weevil should have got it?) After watching the DVD twice I thought I must have been getting mixed-up with their 101 fight and thought that perhaps that fight was a separate event from the main competition. So what was it? A heat fight? Quarter? Semi? I cant remember :uhoh:
No, the first Semi-Final fight with Evil Weevil was not what I would call close and the fibreglass armour looked like it would be destroyed. Evil Weevil saved itself to a degree by keeping the forks at Hypno-disc, which bent Hypno-discs tooth, preventing them from wrecking Evil Weevil as completely as they might have. (According to the Hypno-disc team)
Hypno-disc kept attacking Evil Weevil chipping and pulling small pieces of armour off. After a while, EW had control problems and stopped. The house robots ganged up on it and it was knocked out.
At least thats what I remember.
Ahhhh, yeah its been too long, perhaps I was thinking that because HD wasnt causing extreme visible damage that it was a close match, but then again, it was 7/8 years ago (jeez, was it that long?) and my memorys not the greatest :)
Hi all,
just a heads up to say that Sci-fi are repeating series 6 at the weekends, 6am-8am - started last weekend but I couldnt get an account set up in time to post the details.
Yeah, Ive been taping them.
Thank god for VHS timers!
Cant find any nowadays. I can only find Series 4 on YouTube, and thats with the American commentary, which really sucks. :sad:

Your cant have been looking that hard.

Series 5 on sci-fi 7am on sat and sun i think 2 shows each week
Oh BTW im on this Saturday driving Armadrillo in the 4 way melee with S3 and Shredder :) Sky One 11am
I turned on just in time for the start of that melee on Sunday but only had time to watch that one as I was heading out after it - was a decent melee :)
Dont have those channels Glen. :sad:
That would be why you havent seen them. I just assume everyones got Sky :)
Not in Toronto - unless you have a dish the size of East York :wink:
Didnt realise Kody was in Toronto. The thought never crossed my mind :)
Glen - Toronto should be my home city on my profile; if it aint, Ill update it.

[yay 1000th post :proud:]
It is but i just didnt look :)
Just thought Id let everyone know that repeats will be showing on Challenge, Mondays @ 5pm. It seems to be repeats of Series 3.
I think they have series 3 & 4, and will look at others depending on viewing figures.
It looks like Sky One has now started repeating Extreme 2.
I wish some channels would pick up the first 2 series repeats.
i wish some channel wud just pay for a new series!
I loved the first series.I was about 5 the time it was aired!

Youre not the only one. :sad:
Your right,robot wars was a good show.But for god sake if it does (ever) come back please no more gauntlet or sumo.Like in series 1 and 2.
It seems challenge have dropped RW already.
...after showing series 3 and just one episode of series 4 - there is already a petition started on Challenge TVs forum
It now says on the challenge tv forum that the show starts again at around christmas time from where they left off.
But still,its a bit off to dump it until christmas time.

robot wars is on sky one at the mo. well it was last week :)
Robot Wars will return on challenge over Christmas, Dec 24th at 8am, and will go back to the 6pm slot weekdays in January.
So, is it still returning at 8am? Let me know. :)
just noticed challenge are playing repeats, just found it by accident 6:00pm - 7:00pm, not sure which series it is at the mo!
I was just watching it. Somebody must have really hated Behemoth. They were robbed in the heat final against Pitbull.

Has anyone heard about gladiators comming back on sky? apparentaly according to the old robotwars house robot designer, sky were looking at old shows to bring back including robotwars- but at the moment they are doing gladiators- Which isnt as good as robotwars was.
Oi people, are there any repeats on now? Challenge finished with RW3 a couple of weeks ago
WOOT! S.P.A.C.E. is broadcasting Series 6, Sundays at noon! :proud:
