Changes: Dr. Inferno Jr.

Revision as of 19:51, 30 September 2013

Drinferno5 — Dr. Inferno Jr. from Season 5.0.

Drinfernojr — Dr. Inferno Jr. from Season 4.0.

Inferno3 — Dr. Inferno Jr.'s Season 3.0 appearance.

Battlebot-099 — Dr. Inferno Jr.'s Season 2.0 appearance

Dr. Inferno Jr. was a lightweight robot created by Infernolabs. It was a flat box with skirts on all sides with a model of a robot on top. The robot model was Tomy Omnibot with arms modified to hold interchangable weapons. These originally consisted of a reciprocating saw, a circular saw, and a drill, but in Season 4 they were replaced with a pair of custom-cut triangular saws. Dr. Inferno Jr. was intended to be a novelty entry, but proved a fierce competitor thanks to its untouchable ground clearance and precision driving. In addition, its four-wheel drive (4 x 12V drills) gave it it unparalleled pushing power in the lightweight class. Despite its top-heavy appearance, Dr. Inferno Jr. was only flipped once in its entire career (in an untelevised match against The Crusher). Also, surprisingly, the Omnibot was only damaged three times in combat; the body was shattered by Toe-Crusher in Season 3.0, and one arm was snapped off by Afterburner in Season 5.0 (Bardis didn't have a replacement arm, so he covered the stump in gauze for the televised rounds) and in an unteleviesed Season 3.0 rumble by Backlash. Each time, he sportingly let the other roboteers keep the broken pieces. It enjoyed a successful run in Battlebots, winning two championships and one royal rumble.

Its predecessor, Dr. Inferno, competed at the original BattleBots event at Long Beach. It partnered with another robot named Air Burial to create the multibot Hot Air. Dr. Inferno weighed only 17 pounds, which was the reason behind the pairing. However, Dr. Inferno was much less succesful than its successor.

Dr. Inferno Jr. base competed on Robotica under the name Mini Inferno.

Dr. Inferno Jr's shell still exists, but it has no electronics and is used for display only.
