Lego Robot Wars - GWBS 2017

Fight highlights from the 'Robot Wars' exhibitions featured at the annual 'Great Western Brick Show', a Lego event held at STEAM: The Museum of the Great Western Railway, in Swindon UK.

Please note: protective perspex screens have since been added to the arena for additional audience protection.

Robot rules:
- 1kg weight limit
- must fit inside a 32 stud (25cm) cube
- must be 100% genuine unmodified LEGO parts
- must use the 'Power Functions' system for control

Fight rules:
- last a maximum of 2 minutes
- ends when a robot is immobilised, goes down the pit or goes out the arena
- if there's no clear winner after 2 mins, the winner is decided by audience vote

The fights were selected at random, in order for all the roboteers to get an equal number of turns. The sessions concluded with a 4-way rumble (featuring bots with only 2 motors channels each).
