Fan-made Robot Wars - Robot WarsLego Bots - the original, made by hogwild94. The first ever episode - as the title suggests - contained only robots made out of Lego by him. But as the series progressed pullbacks were used, as well as other toys, such as a Thomas the tank engine toy and a furby. There have been twoseries so far, the Summer League (Series 1) (won by Typhoon) and Lego Bots: The Force (Series 2) (won by Mantrap). Shortly after Series 2, hogwild94 did an annilhator, which outlined changed to the series. For example, the pit was larger and there were no longer any house robots. Now, Series 3 has ended and the current champs are Holchem! By popular demand, hogwild94 is bringing back the House Robots for Series 4, which started in June. The seeds are as follows:
  1. Holchem ( through to semi-finals )
  2. Raging Reality ( through to semi-finals )
  3. Dantomkia ( Through to semi-finals )
  4. Tornado ( Through to semi-finals )
  5. Henry ( lost in Round 2 )
  6. Eric ( through to semi-finals )
  7. Kill-Dozer ( lost in heat-final )
  8. Hypno-Disc ( through to semi-finals )
  9. X-Terminator (through to semi-finals)
  10. ManTrap ( through to semifinals )
  11. Typhoon ( through to semi-finals )
  12. Stinger ( through to semi-finals )
  13. Gravity II (Lost in Round 1)
  14. Chaos II ( Lost to Eric )
  15. All Torque ( lost to Stinger )
  16. Thumper ( lost to Holchem )
  17. Kamakaze Cow ( lost in Round 1
  18. T.I.N.A.R. ( Lost in Round 1 )
  19. Demolisher ( Lost in Round 1 )
  20. Transformarda ( Lost in Round 2 )
  21. Techno Trousers ( Lost to Hypno-Disc )
  22. Razer ( lost in Round 2 )
  23. Ming IV ( lost in Round 1 )
  24. Panic Attack ( through to semifinals )
:NEWSFLASH: Series 4 is still going after almost a year and a half. It is still incomplete due to various other commitments that prevent hogwild94 from filming or uploading. The second semi-final has been filmed and will be uploaded once time is found. The grand final has not yet been filmed, and may not be for sometime as hogwild94 is having problems with his camera.

Hogwild94's Youtube page

Arena description: This is probably one of the more realistic looking arenas. Hogwild94 made it following instructions from a Robot Wars magazine. It is painted silver and has four CPZs. It has a pit (originally with a bottom, but now more Robo Warish) & a Drop Zone (which has no real marking).

Notable robots
Raging Reality - A tracked lego bot, it won the first two "heats" (which were individual tournaments themselves) but went out early in Series 1 before coming 4th in Series 2. Most recently, it made it to the grand final, but was unfortunately pushed into the pit in a close battle involving them and Holchem. It is probably the most popular bot in Lego 'Bots and one of most popular in all fan series, having been nominated for "Best Robot" on typhoon, with the spikes retractedoccasion. They are the second seed for Series 4.

Typhoon - Based on Typhoon from Robot Wars. It's an old spinning top
that came free with an old Thomas The Tank Engine magazine! They won the Series 1 before losing to Razer in the Grand Final of Series 2 only to come 3rd by beating Raging Reality in the playoff. In Series 3, it went out in it's heat after losing to Dantomkia. For Series 4, they are seeded eleventh. They made it to the semi-finals beating Dantomkia in a rematch and defeating Mantrap despite having a cracked tooth!

Mantrap
ManTrap - Originally an unknown, it's a truck with a sort of trapper at the back (hence the name) that doubles as a close second to the new version of Holchem as the most powerful flipper in Lego 'Bots. They competed in an Annihilator that took place just after Series 1, losing in Round 3. They were unseeded for Series 2, but became Grand Champion after beating Razer. Unfortunately, in Series 3, they lost in the the heat final to Hypno Disc after driving in the pit. They are seeded tenth for Series 4. They made it to the semi-finals after a heat in the dark, but lost easily to
T II. They won the loser's melee beating Tornado and Dantomkia, but lost to Typhoon!

holchem, seen with the new wheelsHolchem - A remake of a robot from Robo War, Holchem was bought into replace Instablebot in Series 2. It won Round 1 & Round 2, but lost to Mantrap in the heat final after an exciting battle.
Recently, Holchem had wheels added & it's flipper has been made even more powerful. It has actually tossed some robots out of the arena in unbroadcast episodes of Lego 'Bots. It appeared in the recent annhilator and did really well, becoming the eventual winners of it. The flipper wasn't as powerful as it was made out to be, but it is the strongest flipper in Lego 'Bots. They went on to win Series 3, after taking out some tough robots. Because of this, they are the first seed for Series 4. They won their heat, beating Thumper ( to alabazam's delight ) and beat Tornado, but in an incredibly close/funny semifinal battle including Refbot falling down the pit with Killalot helping out, Shunt being tossed about, Killalot crushing Holchem and Killalot nearly falling down the pit, Holchem got stuck with Killalot over the pit and T II beat Holchem very close!

thumper
Thumper - A small Thumper (Thomas The Tank Engine) toy with an effective flipper on the front. Can self-right, but only if fully flipped. Took part in the Reserve Rumble in Series 1, winning. Also won an Annihilator filmed just after Series 1. Won it's heat in Series 2 (despite going out of the arena at the end) before loosing to Mantrap in Round 1 of the final & making little impact in the loser's melee.
In Series 3, It made it to Round 2 after defeating Vibration
and Psychograpefruit in Round 1, but lost in Round 2
to Gravity, after driving into the pit. They are seeded sixteenth for Series 4. They lost their heat to Holchem after a tough Heat Final.

techno trousers
Techno Trousers - One of the first robots. It has a wheel-powered drill on the front. It competed in some of the early single episodes, but with no great success. It came third in Series 1, but went out in the first round in Series 2 & the second round in Series 3. They are seeded twenty-first for Series 4, but lost
against Hypno Disc in the Heat D heat final.



Eric - A rather interesting robot, Eric is one of the most popular Lego robots.
He first appeared in Series 2, loosing to Typhoon in Round 2. Recently, in Series 3, he beat Blinky to win Heat C. But in the semifinals, Eric lost to Dantomkia on a judge's decision. For Series 4, they are seeded sixth and defeated Chaos 2 in the Heat C heat final to make it through.

K.I.T.N. - The first hogwild94 robot built out of cardboard, K.I.T.N. (which stands for Kick In The Nuts, a name suggested by christophermason) has since become fairly popular. It won it's heat beating Razer and All Torque, but lost to Raging Reality in the Semi-Finals. They are seeded seventh for Series 4 and have been renamed Kill-Dozer. But, they lost in Round 2.

Henry - One of the furthest reaching robots and one of the most popular in the series. It came second in Series 1, loosing to Typhoon in the Grand Final. In Series 2, then got through Round 1, but lost to Holchem in Round 2. Henry got back on track in Series 3, winning it's heat after a rather quick battle against Chaos II. They then lost to Holchem (in an unnoticed grudge match from the last series) after their wheels fell off early on in the battle. For Series 4, they are seeded fifth due to past performances. However, they lost to T II in Round 2 of their heat!

Transformarda - This is probably the robot you either love or hate, made from a Transformers toy with an effective scrimich (which doubles as a spinning device). They made it (rather controversially) to the heat final in Series 1, loosing to Panic Attack. They returned unmodified for Series 2, but lost to ManTrap in Round 2. They added a scoop for Series 3, but it came off before filming could commence. They reached Round 2, but were pitted by Tornado. They are seeded twentieth for Series 4. They lost their heat.

T II - Made from the utterly useless Tantrum, this robot won it's heat with ease beating Henry and Invertabrat along the way. In the semi-finals, they beat BOTH Mantrap AND Holchem very easily, making it to the Grand Final!
