Probably. It was around the time of Series 4 of the regular Robot Wars, but it was basically the Biohazard that we all know and love.

Certainly, it didnt have the pinning rule, which was why it lost (to Voltarc, if you dont know).

Unfortunatly, after that, it stopped airing on BBC2 and there were no other channels I could watch it on.

I remember that. Voltarc just got under ONCE and wasted time for the rest of the fight just taking Bio around to meet the hazards. Well cheap.

Ive never seen that battle, but ive seen:

Biohazard V Incoming

Very much like typhoon V Storm, except one sided. Incoming couldnt do any damage to biohazard and that was that and then they got lifted over.

Biohazard V Greenspan

Ditto

Biohazard V Voltronic (Again)

Biohazard just needed one lift to balance up Voltronic against the wall and that was it, it was very short!!

Biohazard V Overkill

Both times it was the same Biohazard one close games by out pushing overkill and taking it the hazards.

Biohazard V Nightmare

Nightmare broke its weapon and then it was a pushing match.

Hey Mike Spitfire is a great machine, and in my robot wars v battlebots tournament on the fan fic section, you might get a chance to meet them again as dantomkia...

Clang!!!

What was that sound??

Was that the sound of a plug dropping into this thread??

And Spitfire beating Vlad 2 is something I will always thank it for....
For some reason I never took to the Vlads and their silly poking/flipping prongs, (especially Vladiator with its stick!), so Spitfire removing it from the competittion was a highlight for me!!

Hey, now WJ is in this thread, Imagine if Gravity went to Battlebots.....has a robot ever hit the top screen of the Box before?

Perhaps another arena for it to break then!

Lol. Yes, it was an unabashed plug. I apologise. By the way give it a visit
Yeah, i agree with you Paul, i didnt much like Vlad 1 and certainly dont like Vlad 2 a lot. It seems to me to be worse than Vlad 1 in many repsects. I really think the weaponry is quite pants. A pair of fixed static spikes would be better. The season when vladiator won the SHW class (3.0) was what done it for me. There were so many great robots, diesector and toro being good examples, they just had to go and win. But toro got some good revenge when they took on vladiator in season 4.0. see that fight? very good.

Oh yes, one of my favourites that....Ive never seen a robot pike and twist as much in the air! (Gravity may send robots higher than Ive seen before, but Toro/T-Minus etc seem to expend all their energy in making the robot barrel roll in mid-air instead!)

And it ended with a classic stacking against the Battlebox wall.....and no refbot to nudge them back down!

Oh, the timelyness of that joke!!

That was great fun, but all the Toro fights in the end resembled the same fight in that series. Did you see what happened to them in series 5?? Very weird...

Yeah they were running away from Phrizbee.

Does anyone have Seasons 1, 2 and 3 recorded? Or does anyone know if I can purchase them from? Or does anyone know if the BBC will ever show them again? I had the chance to get it all taped - and I didnt - then they showed the other seasons on Choice without giving any real notice.
