Eleven was a huge box shaped walkerbot that entered Series 5 of Robot Wars. It was comprised of two articulated halves, each moved by four hydraulically powered legs, the whole body coated in stainless steel. Its weapon was a pair of pincers, which could be raised up to lift up a snagged opponent, or dropped down heavily like a hammer. Capable of speeds of only 1MPH, it was very slow and was said to have had a turning circle "the size of a small swimming pool". It lost its only battle against the experienced 3 Stegs to Heaven. Eleven's name came from the bingo call "Legs Eleven", and was referred to as such by Craig Charles.
Robot History
In its only ever televised battle, Eleven was placed up against the number 8 seeds 3 Stegs to Heaven. The battle started slowly as Eleven made its way forwards steadily. 3 Stegs to Heaven tentatively drove towards Eleven not really knowing what to do. However 3 Stegs then cut into one of Eleven's legs and its cutting disc severed a cable and hydraulic fluid started to leak out. 3 Stegs then tried to sever more cables, but got stuck in the process. 3 Stegs tried to escape the entangling cables, but couldn't. Because of this, Refbot counted both robots out and the match went to a judges' decision, which went in favour of 3 Stegs to Heaven, eliminating Eleven from the competition.
At the end of the series, Eleven was nominated for the Most Original Entry award for the Fifth Wars, however, it lost out to S3.
