Wacker was a lightweight robot built by Bob Schneeveis which competed in Season 3.0 of Comedy Central BattleBots. It was a triangular-shaped robot which was armed with two spinning lawnmower blades in the front. On the back of the robot was a stuffed Roger Rabbit doll which would mimic driving. The robot did decently during its sole season, winning 3 fights before being trashed by Ziggo.

Before BattleBots, Bob Schneeveis built numerous combat robots for the US Robot Wars events as well as building Uplifting Experience for the Season 3.0 middleweight bracket.

Wacker vs. Sparky Wacker destroying Sparky. Wacker sends pieces of Sparky flying across the arena destroying its weapon In the match, Wacker got its spinning blade into Sparky and ripped two wheels off. After this, Wacker was destroying Sparky's armor. Amazingly, Sparky was still moving and the time ran out shortly after. Wacker won on a 34-11 judges' decision and advanced to the Round of 32, where it faced the reigning lightweight champion Ziggo.
Wacker vs. Ziggo When the match began, Wacker spun its dual blades up to full speed and started steadily approaching an also fully spinning Ziggo. After advancing more than halfway across the arena, Wacker clashed weapon-to-weapon with Ziggo's shell, creating a burst of sparks and sending each other spinning in opposite directions. Wacker clashes its lawnmower blade with Ziggo's shell. Wacker's blades were immediately bent and disabled by the impact, while Ziggo came out unscathed. With its weapon incapacitated, Wacker turned and advanced towards its opponent with the intent of ramming the spinning shell using the front of its chassis, but due to its turning ability being hindered by its bent lower blade, Wacker was unable to impose itself and instead resorted to dodging Ziggo's swipes. Wacker struggles to move towards Ziggo. After backing off towards an entrance ramp, Wacker waited until Ziggo drove in front of it and initiated a charge. However, Wacker timed its charge too early and took a huge hit to the left side of its chassis, tearing off the baseplate and hurling it into the lexan, while bending and jamming up the left wheel in the process. Ziggo delivers a critical hit to Wacker's left side. Wacker tried to crabwalk away, but it soon got its spinner stuck next to the killsaw slot, allowing Ziggo to move to the rear and smack the Rodger Rabbit doll with its flag, before maneuvering to the right side and delivering a big strike to its remaining working wheel, disabling it completely, as well as a follow up strike to its disabled front blades, spinning Wacker into the blue square. Ziggo whacks Roger Rabbit with its directional flag. Ziggo dishes out the killing blow to Wacker's right wheel. With both of its wheels disabled, Wacker was rendered a sitting duck as Ziggo moved in for the finishing move, clobbering Wacker from the rear and flipping it onto its back, leaving it down for the count. Ziggo flips Wacker. Ziggo won by KO at 1:28 and Wacker was eliminated from the tournament. Because Wacker was severely damaged by Ziggo, Wacker couldn't participate the lightweight consolation rumble at the end of the tournament.
