8645T-The Beast

[john]

i think nowadays its only better because all the bots are reliable

ye it was all a fix so they just picked robots what were rubbish - i think the actual reason we didnt get on was because the robot was all black which wouldnt look good on tv? i dont know but was a fix anyway

the later beast was painted all black because my uncles sponsored us and wanted it black with there logos on for tv - it did look good ill try find a pic - this series was called off

my dad wants to make a new flipper for the feather with an axe on the back - just for show rly wont do much damage but will get us extra points

Could you get away with logos when it moved to Five?

[john]

not sure but i think we would of called it shire beast - i think we did but cant remember - this was for the series what would of been on challenge tv i think

if it was on nowadays i would just pop me sponsors logos on the robots b4 i went in and hope they dnt get notice til its 2 late :P lol
