Speaking of which, whatever happened to this adorable fucker?

Isn't Robot Wars getting a reboot too?

Hypno disc was shit if you could get a strong enough pierce through it

The leader of that team became a dad during the 7th wars and from what I hear did a few live shows after but the new Official Heavyweight rules have basically banned spinners.

Speaking of adorable fuckers, I want a Rex Garrod robot, that man pretty much makes the best stuff.

It is, this year this time back under BBC control though what that means is to be seen. Given BBC's track record of reboots lately and stupid political correctness they could bastardize the show.

They already have fucking Dana O'Brian as the presenter which may be annoying, he's definitely no Craig Charles. The flipside is Johnathan Pearce is back as the commentator.

>strong enough pierce
That's why Razer managed to tank out Matilda that one time. I'm actually surprised they didn't setup any rules against pierce strength because it usually fucked everyone up.

But it really fucked over CO2, that thing was so boring to watch

You still needed good drive control to use a piercing robot so I don't see why not. There have been examples of robots which were amazing in design but the operator couldn't drive for shit and fly off into the pit.
