Robogeddon was a competitor in Series 3 of Robot Wars. Though it lost its only battle, it is well known for being the first victim of Hypno-Disc's flywheel.
Robot History
Many believed that Robogeddon's flipping weapon would give it the edge to beat Hypno-Disc. However, they were quickly proved wrong. Not shown on TV, Robogeddon started the battle well, pushing Hypno-Disc into the arena wall. Hypno-Disc became stuck in reverse drive, where it was torched by the flamethrowers, but it regained mobility. After this, Hypno-Disc's initial blow simply bounced off, but the following three blows tore the armour off of Robogeddon. Hypno-Disc then shredded the hanging shell of Robogeddon, whilst the reptilian robot fled. Two more blows and the armour detached completely, leaving Robogeddon's chassis exposed. Another blow from Hypno-Disc ruptured the wheel and removed all chance of Robogeddon escaping, with its wheels spinning, but no movement being generated. Hypno-Disc struck once more and cracked open the carbon dioxide canister for Robogeddon's weapon. At this point, cease was called, truly sending Robogeddon out of the wars.
