Overall I liked the new series of Robot Wars -shame the intro music and sequences have been dropped, but the arena
looked great and feel was more mature.
Interesting to see how veteren roboteers have changed and how the robots in the words of noel sharky have changed very
little.
There are obvious increases in the power/reliability/build quality- but visually you could line them up with the series 3 robots
and fail to pick out 2016 machines from 2000 machines unless you know your onions
.
Didn't like the way nuts and first round robots were treated to massive distruction-no punches pulled while others were treated
with kid gloves, thier robots may look like they are knocked up in a trice but i can assure you they are not and its just as
painfull for thier machines to be destroyed as anyone else's.
I love to see distruction and so do the programme makers and viewers but I say treat your apponents robot with respect
and the programme makers will as usual....not be paying for any robot to be repaired.
