Hi all, just a Joe Public here, a relic from the old Robot Wars site.... :)

Was at this in the crowd for the lunchtime show and saw some great fights, particularly the heavyweight melee.....

Not really seen the machines since the TV show went, so it was nice to see how different they are now.....when did Kronic become Gravity-ised... :wink:
Great machine that one....in fact all the ones there were,....though not too happy with the Mechanoids one....soaked us on the way out *sigh* :proud:

I never realised how devoted the little ones get to the robots......the kids around me seemed to be only there for Wheely Big Cheese so when someone asked a question about it and it was said they hadnt turned up yet they had a bit of a sulk, then when I later noticed it was in the pits I pointed at it for them and they spent most of the rest of the fights staring at IT not the action :proud:
I hope it got out in the final show to please some crazy kids out there!

Overall a great spectacle and a great show......thanks a lot! :)

Now, Im gonna go find all the video clips and material I can find to get me back into the mood for fightin again :wink:
Maybe buy that DVD I heard about too! :)

Excellent event chaps!

What a fantastic start to the UK scene this year.

I agree, i great start to 2006, looks like its going to be a great year.

The new effects were recieved well, however im disappointed in the feather weights not willing to play with the hammer, I havent even begun to make it powerful yet. :sad: Come on guys, try harder next time.

Well done to Pillow Torque, FW Winners, and Kan Opener, the 2006 champions. A fight well worthy of being on our tv screens.

I must also say congratulations to our 3 newbie roboteers.

Invasion, getting more experienced in thier 2nd event.

Push and Shove, ( foxy boxy 2 ), which was built by me as an xmas pressent, Andrew saved his pocket money himself, and fought off all the other feather weights to win 2 fights over the weekend.

Phsyko Fling, a zeobot chassis, and some old arena makrolon, built by Alex himself. His 2nd ever event, and nearly won, but took 2nd place in his last fight.

Well done to all. Pictures, and movie clips on the website tonight as long as stu doesnt have any homework from school... i mean Uni. :)

Roll on magna.

Yeah, damn right the feathers dont want to mess with that hammer!...We dont mind taking any damage that comes our way during fair combat, but were not prepared to have a machine put out of action for the rest of an event or worse still oblitarated, just for the benefit of an arena effect!

That said, it was a very good event, well done to the Team Mad and the RR crew, the heavyweight final was one of the best fights Ive seen for a while.
Also well done the new guys.. Keep up he good work, hope to see you all at another event soon.
