Full Metal Anorak was a middleweight robot that exclusively competed in Series 1 of Robot Wars. It performed well in its heat, reaching the Arena Semi-Final stage where it was defeated by REALI-T after accidentally driving onto a grille.
Despite being a middleweight, Full Metal Anorak was allowed to compete in the main competition due to the First Wars having no weight restrictions.
Robot History[]
Full Metal Anorak entered Heat E, and started its Gauntlet run by reversing out of the turntable and heading towards the left-hand route. It cleared the maze quickly and with relative ease despite having to constantly back out when negotiating every corner, and charged straight towards the end zone after clearing the land mines, completing its run.
This run allowed Full Metal Anorak to qualify for the Labyrinth Trial. It led Torque of the Devil through the left-hand part of the maze, and used its speed and manoeuvrability to advance quickly before both robots were blocked by Sergeant Bash. Full Metal Anorak rammed under Sergeant Bash, forcing him to reverse and allow it to catch up with Bodyhammer, before effortlessly reaching the end zone with less than 30 seconds to spare.
Not content with finishing the Labyrinth, however, Full Metal Anorak left the end zone to ram Matilda and help REALI-T complete the course, but REALI-T failed to get past and Matilda attacked Full Metal Anorak in the end zone as time ran out. As Psychosprout failed to move, having rolled back to the start following an initial collision with REALI-T, Full Metal Anorak won the Labyrinth, and proceeded to the Arena stage.
In its Semi-Final, Full Metal Anorak fought REALI-T, the competitor that it tried to help out in the Labyrinth. Both robots met in the centre of the arena, with Full Metal Anorak ramming REALI-T twice and getting its front blade under it both times. Full Metal Anorak backed away as REALI-T pushed it back, then darted across the arena and rammed REALI-T again after Sergeant Bash came in to attack REALI-T with his circular saw. REALI-T retaliated by ramming Full Metal Anorak a few more times as Full Metal Anorak attempted to get a run, eventually getting another hit in. Eventually, Full Metal Anorak was pushed towards a grille by REALI-T, forced against the side bars and ran away, only to drive onto the other grille after hitting REALI-T again. This eliminated Full Metal Anorak from the First Wars.
