Not bad. Me & Emma Evans saw her at Newport Center on 11th May in the featherweight division.

She's still up and running? Holy cow, I thought she'd have been left hidden somewhere in the BBC's Visual Effects department to gather dust, but that's awesome!
I mean, I know Thirteen Black is still functioning since it's one of the participants atΒ the Robots event at MCM Manchester each year, but I never expected one of the House Robots to still be operational

She is spottedΒ here Β in House Robots with a new House Robot circa 2007, it's Major Damage Β & he's given that name by John Fidlay ofΒ Team Roaming Robots Β after Robot Wars ended. WithΒ Team Roaming Robots Β adopting the Robot Wars name in 2013, Major Damage became the main house robot for the new Robot Wars live events. Matilda , on the other hand, like you said, lost her chainsaw tail to Razer.

Good to see old faces like Stinger and the Steel Avenger still hanging about

Not bad
Kind of a shame to think of where most of the other robots could be now

I used to love watching Robot Wars! And Craig Charles (Red Dwarf fame) was a brill commentator.

ah yes, i remember Robot Wars. unfortunately i've never watched any episodes since it was only on one day a week of a morning, so i always missed it. though i do remember watching The Simpsons parody of it

It was awesome, sometimes even downright funny, especially when one of the House Robots gets flipped on its side or a competitor gets flipped clealy over the arena wall
Look up videos of Hypno Disc or Razer to see some REAL robot destruction

Oh yeah, I remember that show. My sister and I always use to watch that show.
My fav of the House Robots was, indeed, Sir Killalot. But still, nice design for Matilda, she looks awesome.

Yep, nothing like seeing robots torn to bits to pass the time.
I can't wait to see them!
