A few years before Battle Bots aired, I participated in and helped run a robotics competition. So I was a huge fan of the show. I remember Grant Imahara from Mythbusters tearing it up with Deadblow. Vlad the Impaler was amazing.
Unfortunately, the new videos won't feature Carmen Electra or the Sklar Brothers (their standup is amazing). I think it will be more dry like the TV special "Killer Robots". But if you like robot fighting, give these guys some money so it can happen.
