As a child I absolutely loved this show! Then in 2004 it was put off tv. But now it is no longer an underground thing as it returns to TV and is actually opening up tickets to the wider public (instead of diehards!)

Just imagine the stuffs people can make now that technology has jumped forwards a decade and the more complex parts are cheaper and so on.

I can't wait to see the creations

So long as they don't impose a bunch of rules like before (i.e. no torch cutters :()

I cried so much when my favourite house bot was cut in half. 

Speaking of which, what were people's fave housebots?

I'm having a hard time deciding between Sgt. Bash and Dead Metal.

I remember one of my fave scenes was when Bash lit a clothed bot on fire and it just scooted about in flames

Anyone else secretly hoping that they'll bring back the Robot Wars line of video games?

You know, the ones where you build a custom robot from scratch and use it to battle in tournaments for prize money?

Yeah I used to play those all the time. It'd go down pretty well as a multiplayer game.

 I played the living crap out of the Xbox original game!

it was sooo fucking good. 

I would so love to see a modern aged version with multiplayer. 

 

speaking of robots, there was this other robot show i used to watch where the robots were bipedal but were clearly CGI. They tried to pass it off as real though with actors pretending to be contestants controlling the robots. They also brought out this PS2 game which i played....it was terrible, the controls were awful. Any i lost the game and i can't find the the name. Does anyone remember about the show I'm talking about?
