/Robot Wars/

It all begins again, tonight at 8pm on BBC2.

Dara Ó Briain's the new host, with Angela Scanlon the new pit girl. House robots have been beefed up too, with Sir Killalot, Dead Metal, Matilda and Shunt returning.

Shunt has been on PEDs

thanks for reminding me user

fuck off jonathan pearce for making me think of robot wars every time you do the football commentary

>no Craig Charles

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Hope Dara recreates some of Craig Charles' classic rhymes to close the show.

Sniffed too much marching powder.

At least it's not this meek cunt.

has philippa forrester come back?

No mate, Dara has brought along another mick

>they look like they're puppets on strings
>show is a corporate-demanded reboot

P O E T R Y

>tfw went to the taping for one of these
>saw fire and shit

>Pigs in the wild are called Boars
>It's Robot Wars!

Cheers for reminding me lad, if the janny deletes the thread here i'm sure there will be one on Sup Forums.

>Dara O Brian

Probly not, cannot stand this cunt

Pussycat was robbed just saying.

I live round the corner from the guy who made Panic Attack

Tell us user, how were the fights?

Don't get too specific though please.

LOCK THE CUPBOARDS!
LOCK YOUR DOORS!
WE REIGN SUPREME
ON ROBOT WARS!

BAH BYE!

Currently on Challenge in anyone gives a fuck

kek

does he ever take it for walks?

Can't wait for a classic Razer choke like the good old days.

Flippers were a meme but ultimately ramming bots, specifically one, killed Robot Wars. Then Team Typhoon ruined it even more, not that I really remember the Channel 5 series.

HYPE AS FUCK
who /razer/ here?
Tornado scum please remove yourseves

True, but for the best reason

>Red Dwarf season 11 in production

the 90's are BACK BABY!

>Shunts food into his belly
this is bs

IM A MICK CUNT
SO ARE THE CORRS
BUT WE PREFER SHUNT
ON ROBOT WARS

FIDDLE DI DEE

who has got that robot wars to EPL teams comparison image?

fucking hypnodisc master race

/missSgtBash/

Friendly reminder that you will NEVER E V E R see Razer fight Hypnodisc.

roadblock here

lol seriously?

>pokemania is back
>robot wars is back
what a time to be alive

>tfw torn between Hypnodisc and Razer
>Hypnodisc was fucking awesome
>but Razer is from Poole and muh Dorset pride

As a kid I was a Chaos 2 babby, but as I've got older you realise the brilliant engineering that went into Razor. Must have spent a ton, like Dominator did on their all-titanium robot with the diamond-tipped axe.

FUCKING YES

don't forget

This shit was only fun when you were a kid. Prepare to have your nostalgia destroyed

Who /GeorgeFrancis/ here?

just need the big breakfast to return then we're all set

...

>hypnodisc
i used to really like it but then i saw the spinners they have in America in Battlebots last year and damn they are more destructive, wonder if we'll see something similar this year too

Check his Twitter out if you haven't, hasn't used it for like five years but it's funny as fuck.

What did he mean by this

>hypnidisc was brutal because they'd throw him in with bots made out of old wheelchairs covered in aluminum.

He'd fucking RECK them.

Also, remember that team who'd always cover their bot in polkadot fur for bants? always caught fire.

I hope they still have music during the battles. Especially if it's still the old music

>ROBOTEERS, STAND BY
>THREE
>TWO
>ONE
>ACTIVATE
>bots begin, Based Pearce starts commentary, this starts

DIOTOR

>GeorgeFrancis

TOPPEST FUCKING KEK. It's just him harassing women and using his robot wars appearances to try and lose his virginity.

Fuck, forgot link

You saying Things Can Only Get Better?

Razer was so OP when it was reliable. Literally house robot tier.

Deviantart needs to chill

>YFW ROBOT WARS IS BACK

...

cricket is for elite, muscular, handsome and intelligent people

10/10

Yes pmsl

Didn't they put a kebab on it once?

Germany is gay

>@MrPeterAndre Hey Pete, will you be my mysterious girl?

rudeposters not welcome

dunno, have you ever seen Tombstone? that thing either destrys the opponent or itself >remember that team who'd always cover their bot in polkadot fur for bants?
Kek yes, also all those bots with paperthin armours the would always get BTFO and were probably put there just to show some destruction

KEK

Friendly reminder that Razer is a choke artist

MY SIDES

which football manager would be most likely to go on robot wars?

>there was a Robot Wars USA hosted by Mick Foley

Knew BattleBots was a thing (didn't they show this on BBC as well) but never knew they had a USA Robot Wars.

That's excellent

...

Well done lad, first meme of the season?

Bog Sim

moyes

Yeah they showed BattleBots sometimes in the gaps between series, it was fucking awful even with the advert breaks removed.

Techno Games was pretty fun, some of the RW teams entered.

...

You're now old enough to realise that the kids from team big brother clearly have autism.

probably pulis. it would be some kind of family one that gets shit on in the first round

pep would build something like razer
wenger would build something that was good in season 1
poch would build tornado
klopp would build hypnodisc

Pussycat was the underrated goat

These two were literally the only useful kids on the show. Be great if they've grown up into GOAT roboteers.

...

WHO HERE
>NOEL SHARKEY

Ignoring the blue flag

Fuck off delinquent, we don't want the mods booting Robot Wars off Sup Forums

youtube.com/watch?v=a_90pFkFJ8c

I remember this happening when i was little and flipping out because it was the first time a robot self-righted.

>the first fully autonomous robot Cuntbuster 9000 dominates the field
>spend months analyzing its performance and tactics, build bot to counter it
>meet it in the final
>beat it in the greatest battle in the history of the sport
>revel in triumph, run back home in tears of joy to tell wife tales of glory
>Cuntbuster 9000 is already there, fucking her into her 13th explosive orgasm of the night
How can humans compete? Even if we win, we still lose

Used to lecture one of my old flatmates at uni. Sound apparently.

Who watching Challenge here? This Prizephita guy looks like he's about to cry.

Tbf he was robbed, Addams Family a shit

>Prizefighter getting refbotted by Wild Thing

RIGGED

Remember how shit the 'walkers' would be?

How far we have come

>sir eatsalot

Made me giggle desu senpai.

When are they going to fix this shit?

They need a housebot weight class so some actual damage gets done.

So when does it air and where can i watch?

Weight limit has gone up from 100kg to 130kg iirc

8pm uk time on bbc 2

Killalot is much heavier as well, he's 35 stone-ish now iirc

>Robot Wars starts as a fun family show
>Early seasons are participated in only by robot enthuiasts like George Francis and Team Razer and other people just having a good time like the Diotoir lads
>Season 7 rolls around, suddenly a bunch of RAF cadets come in backed up by the Royal Air Force and take everything seriously with their hyper robot

Fuck you Typhoon.
