Draft for Robert Bahr page
Robert "Safety Rob" Bahr is an American engineer who has worked with BattleBots since World Championship IV. Originally part of the safety inspection team, he would later become head of safety and robot operations manager for the live show, BattleBots: Destruct-A-Thon in September 2022.
As safety inspector, he would thoroughly assess competing robots before and after fights, ensuring they work in line with the show's design rules. This can range from pre-tournament weigh ins and failsafing to making sure robots are inactive when not in the BattleBox and ensuring spinning weapons are able to spin down in adequate time. Many of these inspections are done in the Test Box.
Due to the nature of his roles, he is rarely seen on camera. However, Bahr mad…
Draft for International Versions of BattleBots
With the growing popularity of BattleBots in the United States, a range of international dubs were produced to capitalize on the show's popularity in non-English speaking countries. Each of these provided native commentary which either overlaid or outright replaced personalities such as Chris Rose, Kenny Florian, Faruq Tauheed and others.
Below is a non-exhaustive list of these dubs:

- Mark Beiro wrongly billed lightweight Alpha Raptor as weighing "157lbs" in an introduction.
- In his introduction for Panic Attack 3, Mark Beiro wrongly infers that it was built out of titanium, when it was made largely from aluminum.
- In promotional posters for the 2015 season on ABC, OverDrive was listed as having saw weaponry.
- It was mentioned ahead of the tournament fight between SubZero and Icewave that SubZero had never been knocked out. This was not true, however, as it twice lost in this manner to Falconizer in the 2004 NPC Charity …
My Lego Battlebots Collection!
Here's all the 1/10 scale Lego Battlebots competitors I have in Stud.io so far.
- The first row is Mauler, Nightmare, Overkill, Minion (my latest one) and Dreadnought
- The second row is Kritical Mass II, 2015 Witch Doctor, FrenZy, Tentoumushi 3.0, and 2 versions of Dreadbot between seasons 3.0 and 5.0.
- The third row is The Judge, Biohazard, ICEwave, Rammstein, and Mechavore
- The last row is Killerhurtz (or at least, an attempt at Killerhurtz) Suicidal Tendencies (the bot I finished before Minion) Bigger Brother, Mortis, and lastly Towering Inferno.
Despite these all being intended as 1/10 scale, their weight classes aren't even REMOTELY connected to the weight of their Lego models, since unlike real life combat robots who use a variety of different…
RagnaBattleBots - Intro and Preliminaries
The Robot Wars Wiki's Arena Forum is in the middle of its fourth Ragnabot tournament. Ragnabot is a large-scale fantasy robot combat tournament pitting nearly the entire Robot Wars cast against each other until the ultimate winner is found. So why not do that for BattleBots?
Heavyweights and superheavyweights that have fought in a BattleBots match are eligible to fight in RagnaBattleBots, or as I will shorten it to henceforth, RBB. The presence of two separate weight classes may seem unfair, but the 20+ year-old superheavyweights' dated armor and components will show their age against modern heavyweight machinery.
As emphasized in Ragnabot 4, RBB will allow separate variants of the same machine to compete as long as I deem them different eno…

Builder Spotlight - Bunny Liaw
Adrian 'Bunny' Liaw is one of the most prolific and successful female team captains in BattleBots history, boasting a career-best Top 16 finish in the most recent season – World Championship VII. Despite debuting the horizontal drum spinner Malice in 2020, her involvement within BattleBots and the wider sport runs much, much deeper.
Like many team captains in recent seasons, Bunny Liaw watched the Comedy Central series, citing Team Razer's unique entry Warhead as her favorite competitor. After picking up a poster of the robot as a child, she kept and still displays it in her garage to this day. Though Bunny herself would not enter during the original BattleBots run, her future husband David Liaw competed in Season 5.0, but never made it to televi…
Battlebots: Proving Grounds - The Top 10 Winners(Part 10)
Hello and welcome back! We've finally reached the end of the list, and it's time to find out who the biggest winner of the Battlebots Proving Ground is! Last time, we took a look at Traves T's meteoric rise from mysterious meme to cult commander. Today, we'll examine another bot by a veteran builder, one who's been hanging around for years, but only now is finding true, consistent success in Battlebots. For the final time, let's dive on in!
Craig Danby has been building robots for about as long as I've been alive, and for many years has been among the sport's most beloved veterans. However, despite two and a half decades of competition he's always struggled to find success at the heavyweight level, particularly when it comes to televised co…
Battlebots: Proving Grounds - The Top 10 Winners(Part 9)
Hello and welcome back! In our last installment we took a look at veteran mainstay Jackpot, whose Proving Ground runs helped bolster waning confidence in its capabilities and win over the Vegas crowds. Today, we'll examine a bot who shares Jackpot's color scheme and proved a standout in its debut, but otherwise is about as different as can be. Let's dive right in!
Kurt Krueger summed up the initial response to his robot's reveal perfectly: What the hell is that? When its design was finally revealed in late June after weeks of speculation, many found it confusing, amusing or downright goofy. Standing atop thin-looking stilts with direct drive wheels, minimal armor and a chunky spinner, the bot looked like something you'd see in a 2004 event.…
