  • Gadget Show Live

    went to the Gadget Show Live yesterday, was well good and the robo challenge stand seemed to be the second most popular area after the gaming area which was showing the world champion on stage doing guitar hero, was unreal - can see his videos on http://www.youtube.com/user/UKOGmonkey to see how good he was!

    beauty 2 was on FIRE as well, think it may be having a fight with 360 this weekend , hopefully doesn€™t get damaged because will definitely win uk champs if works like it was yesterday, big nipper team had no chance hopefully i get to fight 360 soon in a proper fight not for show - driving on a spektrum dx3 now to which seemed to go well but only used it for 1 fight , some1 who knows how to set them up right needs to come help us to because the fire button was messed up, basically have to reset the button to be able to fire again. hopefully will be able to control beast better with it.

    hopefully robo challenge get a lot of work from this as it seemed very popular and a lot of schools/people were interested in getting involved so may see some new faces around soon - stand looked great, don€™t know what other events are like the gadget show live but if you can get into them I would definitely come help put on shows with beauty ( hopefully created a few good fights yesterday) I think we need a titanium box going up against a spinner to create some sparks - that would really get the audience going. What live shows are around? As this was easily one of the best stands for entertainment at them.

    only thing I think was missing was a full on kit there to be sold on the day, people were throwing money at other stands so next year these could be the next big thing there.

    posters looked great to , will have to get one of them off you and get everyone to sign it and hopefully the GG crew :P

    thanks for the tickets - next year I want to be there for 5 days though

    did i say beauty 2 was on fire? need dates for uk champs so i can book off work

    also don't know whats better, feathers or heavys. feathers have potential to put on great shows at these type of live events - i hope we get more!

    did anyone think venom was razer? was wondering if anyone would to see if they remember razer?

    thanks again

    reading the gadget show mag now and iv just seen a 3D HD camera , only $21000 - robot wars in 3D? that would be cool! would love to see it

    tried a few of the 3D tvs at the show, prefered the HD 1s though as some of the were just perfect quality and the football seemed alot better on a really good HD tv to a 3D one


    forgot to say that during the theatre show i txtd in on the competition and got through, my dad went up on the stage had to put one of them no pole tents back into the bag but i think he thought it was the person to get the tent out the bag wins the prize lol n he tried to jump into the tent after getting it out! hopefully they stick it on the show video which will go online one day

      didn't see this one coming

      they have a page in the mag with 2 events in each month from may til december, basically them recommending whats on

      Robot Wars
      May 2nd, Brentwood, UK
      www.ukrobotwars.com

      The TV show maybe dead and buried, but the joy of atching remote-control robots battle to the death lives on. Why not build a killer bot and enter the arena?

      have ticket sales gone up yet?

                Glad you enjoyed it John.

                Weve managed to get all packed away now, took a massive clean-up with all the glass from little spinner's demo's. Theyve created an awesome machine with the new bar on once again!

                Huge thanks to all the roboteers who came over , Big john and little John on friday, mouldy over the weekend and most of all Mark and Greame (and Glynn)!
                The big nipper guy's were awesome all week, stopping in a hotel near by the NEC. These guy's bought 4 robot's with them, giving non-stop demo's on the hour, every hour over 5 days...... We can't thank you guy's enough, and we hope you enjoyed the show.

                Time will tell how well we have done from this event, but the main thing is that Robot Wars seems to be increadibly popular at the moment. The increadible response we have had all week from Gadget fan's has shown just how much of a following we still have! Hopefully we have gotten a few new builders on the scene, and certainly alot of perked interest in the sport.....

                Hope everyone who helped us out enjoyed the VIP tickets to the Gadget Show's Live Show - I best rub it in, that with Johns spectacular failure of the outdoor tent challenge, that I actually won the day after New Xbox 360, and the only person to get the tent back in the bag from any of the show's lol.
