The Orlando Commando was a middleweight robot built by Team O-Town which fought in Season 3.0 and 5.0 of Comedy Central BattleBots.
It was a silver, cutoff-cone-shaped shell spinner which used two large teeth to deal damage. It won two battles in its rookie season, but was defeated in the final preliminary round. After a one season hiatus, the team returned for Season 5.0 but was forced to withdraw. Team O-Town also built the lightweight Major Divot for Season 5.0.
