Punjar.
Punjar was a heavyweight robot built by Ramiro Mallari. It was originally built for the 1996 Robot Wars event, with a flat wedge shape and a spinning chain flail, but this robot was destroyed by Blendo, so Ramiro completely rebuilt it before the 1999 BattleBots Long Beach event to be a very boxy shape with a sturdy front scoop and tremendous pushing power. Punjar participated in the first five BattleBots competitions before retiring after Season 3.0. Mallari's great driving combined with Punjar's pushing power earned them a great number of victories along the way, and Punjar was ranked 4th when Punjar retired.
