So with ABC reviving the BattleBots show I wanted to hear your thoughts on this.

I wanna hear from you seasoned veterans with tonnes of experience and also you newbies who are just now hearing about this and are really starting to get interested.

I have some ideas for a BattleBot and I'm sure you all do so let's talk.

used to love this as a kid, cool to see it's still here

Yeah what was your favorite part about it? Any insights? Planning to build your own bot and enter?

All I know is that Bronco is an amazing flipper.
I'll never build my own though.

Cool anyone else? And here's a topic you guys could discuss about:


So yeah discuss the pros and cons and I'll join in on it soon ;)

I was thinking of building a bot with a metal bar spinning as a weapon. What do you think would be the appropriate weight class? 60lbs?

I don't even know there is a show with this theme.. I used to play Robot Arena 2 in 2010 or 2009?(a pc games) and I love it. Never really thought of making one in real life tho..

Oh tell me more on what you think about it(Wow such morning talk show replies XD)

I didn't know this was a real show tbh. Seems like it could be kind of cool but eh, might be kind of boring.

Battlebots came before that game did, in around 2000.
