      My favorite from robot wars is 259
      It has elements of one of my favorites “Biohazard” and the main feature is an element from my favorite robot “nnnnmNNIGHTMARE!”

    I had a few toys of them, some still survive (my Razer and Chaos broke too easily) But have a few house robots and I a few battlebots RC cars. Talking of which I believe that america robot you have is Biohazard. .Good video, love your handmade Diotoir, he is my fave so I'm a bit biased :D Did you manage to see any live recordings of the new series btw?

    • @OrangeDoseOverJuice
      @OrangeDoseOverJuice  8 років тому +2

      +Tygra Biohazard! - That's it - Knew I'd remember it when I heard it :p Really hope Diotoir returns for the new series :D Sadly no, I emailed them instantly and they said just to sign up to buy tickets when they came up but they never seemed to turn up and I believe filming has already begun. Bit crap but still - back on TV so can't complain :) Plus a place near me did has a Robot Wars exhibition back in the day so as I kid I got to see Razer and Bigger Brother in real life which was awesome :D

      no you shouldnt, i have never seen one for sale online before and considering more common toys such as razor and WBC are going for between £18 and £33 you could reasonable ask for £100 to an avid toy collector.

    Yes! Someone else who has Dead Metal as their favourite house bot! Most other original Robot Wars fans I've spoken to didn't rate him much. D:

    • @OrangeDoseOverJuice
      @OrangeDoseOverJuice  6 років тому

      In the very first series it was Sgt Bash because he was way cooler looking and comparatively more effective back then but yeah mostly it was Dead Metal - such a unique attack and just so vicious looking! :D

    • @sirwoollyjumper4893
      @sirwoollyjumper4893 6 років тому

      Totally agree about Sgt. Bash, my favourite house robot changed when Dead Metal was given a rebuild for Series 3.

  • @robertreader6539
    @robertreader6539 7 років тому

    I too used to improve the bots. I'd get the she'll off and attach it to a tiny bug remote control. My friend wouldn't all ow me to use a blade if we battled as he was upset if his rc got broke. I ended up half way through a build and going in without a shell and he takes 2 mechano pieces and nudged my receive off. Needless tk say if I'd completed my robot design I would jabe smashed him. I don't see him anymore but when we used to meet as kids I always had the better and cooler designs. A childhood full of imagination and great parents letting me play with my toys and not making sure I kept them pristine. Seems you had a fun childhood too

    • @OrangeDoseOverJuice
      @OrangeDoseOverJuice  7 років тому

      Robert Reader That's brilliant :) my dad definitely approved of improving the accuracy as he did a lot of modelmaking for his model railway. Do you still have any and if so - do a a video! :D

    • @robertreader6539
      @robertreader6539 7 років тому

      OrangeDoseOverJuice yeah I've still got them. I got the arena too for the minibots the small metal pullback toys. And the slalom. I'm not very good at uploading videos it seems to take 45mins for a 30second video otherwise I'd show you them. I'm part way through building 2 acrylic bots with savage blades on them. Really wish I had used my time better when I was younger and finished that robot I battled with. Effectively i went in with a Tyco rebound with no shell but like I said my friend wouldn't allow me to use sharp weapons. But when he got the lucky hit and broke my rd you should have seen how happy he was. We both knew if I'd build my rc in time I'd have sabotaged him !!

    • @OrangeDoseOverJuice
      @OrangeDoseOverJuice  8 років тому

      I don't think they were all quite the same scale but you could take an average by measuring them and comparing it to the dimensions of the real ones. I'd say they were probably around 1:12 ish maybe - that's a bit of a guess actually, don't quote me :p

      Not at all. Roadblock is basically just a massive wedge too so nice and easy. I think I just printed off the road signs bit so it looked right but yeah - just give it a go, can always make a few to get it right. Any way of seeing your Firestorm and Chaos 2? :)

      I'm really sorry but going to have to be a no for that one - I'd need to get hold of the flipper part from a massive old Micromachines aircraft carrier which would probably prove hard to track down and costly plus to be honest - I don't really remember how I made it! :p It was so long ago and I think I just made it up as I went along. Have a go though and if all else fails - there's always the pullback :)
