List of errors in Robot Wars

The list below consists of errors made in official Robot Wars media, in the form of misinformation, spelling errors, visual discrepancies, and other miscellaneous mistakes made.

General

 * Jonathan Pearce frequently uses the term "armament" to describe armour when the term actually refers to weaponry.
 * Occasionally during Series 5 and Extreme 1, the team booths will not feature a picture of their robot in the background. Sometimes, it uses the image of their opponent, and sometimes it features a robot that isn't even participating in the current battle.
 * Starting from Extreme 1, due to the robots entering the arena being shown out of order, robots are seen entering the arena and then seconds later they are still in the doorway.
 * Throughout Extreme 1 and Series 5, the pictures on the stat boards often show the wrong version of the robot - for example, a picture of Dominator 2 without the wheel guards is used in Series 5, and some of the Extreme 1 battles, such as the Wild Card battle, even though Dominator 2 added wheel guards after their Extreme 1 All-Stars battle, and in Spawn Again's Heat and Semi-Final in Series 5, the picture on the stat board shows Spawn Again with the Extreme 1 paint scheme instead of the Series 5 paint scheme.
 * Mortis was said to cost £100,000 to build. In reality, the out-of-pocket costs were much lower, and that number represents a rough approximation of the robot's value based on its customized parts and engineering.
 * On several robots' statistics boards, some of the team members had either their first name or their surname larger than the other.
 * In series that used House Robot stat cards, often the given stat cards would not match which House Robots were actually present in the battle.
 * Many stat boards feature a team member who is not even present with the team either because they were unable to attend or were absent from filming or so.

The First Wars

 * On Roadblock's statistics board in Heat A, Hender Blewett's name was incorrectly spelt as "Hender Blewitt".
 * Jonathan Pearce said in the Heat Final of Heat B that Mortis' axe looked bent, when actually it had been removed completely and replaced with a ramming spike.
 * Psychosprout was misspelt as Pyschosprout.
 * REALI-T and Bodyhammer's Trial placings in Heat E were mistakenly reversed, putting Bodyhammer second and REALI-T fourth.
 * For the final three heats, the original format for the battles (1 vs 3, 2 vs 4) was removed.
 * In Heat D, Jeremy Clarkson stated incorrectly that it featured lightweight robots.
 * As Mortis was announced as the best engineered robot in the awards of the final episode, Arthur Chillcot had his name misspelt as "Arthur Chillcut".

The Second Wars

 * Mick Cutter of Team Chaos was erroneously referred to by both Jonathan Pearce and Craig Charles as "Mike Cutter" throughout Heat B.
 * It was constantly stated, even by the team themselves, that Killertron had reached the Grand Final of the First Wars when it fell in the Heat Final.
 * Charles Lavery from Team Joint Effort was incorrectly listed as the third member of the Phoenix team.
 * Mortis was stated to have scored 100 points in the Pinball in the semi-finals, when in actuality it scored 75 points.
 * Jonathan Pearce incorrectly referred to Sir Killalot as "Killertron" shortly before the Grand Final match between Cassius and Roadblock.

The Third Wars

 * When Technophobic was introduced, it was said to have been eliminated in Round 1, despite reaching its heat final. It was also said to have appeared in the second heat of the Second Wars, despite it having appeared in the fifth heat of that series.
 * Oddly, the background music for the first battle of Heat B was the Robot Wars ending theme, rather than the usual battle theme.
 * Robocow's statistics board featured two errors; it claimed it was 6.6 metres wide, and the Notes section read "Has a wagging wooden tale", when "tail" would be the correct spelling.
 * Jonathan Pearce claimed that the name behemoth actually translates as "strong willed water-ox", when it actually merely translates as "any creature of monstrous size or power".
 * Jonathan Pearce erroneously referred to Agent Orange's predecessor Spin Doctor as a finalist, despite not even reaching its heat final.
 * Craig Charles incorrectly introduced the Middleweight Melee as the first round of the Middleweight Championship.
 * In the Heat C Final, Jonathan Pearce erroneously called Blade's team captain Josh Ainslie "John Ainslie".
 * During the end credits of Heat C, the battle theme was played instead of the ending theme.
 * In a few Heats in the background on the TV monitors it reveals clips of both Hypno-Disc and Chaos 2 entering the arena together.
 * After Sir Killalot is set ablaze in the match between Napalm and Robopig in Heat G, Jonathan Pearce says "that's the first time we've seen that in Robot Wars history", this being incorrect as Sgt Bash set fire to Sir Killalot in Robo Doc's Gauntlet run in Series 2.
 * Berserk 2 was misspelt as "Beserk 2".
 * Excalibur was incorrectly spelt as "Excaliber".
 * During the tour of the pits at the start of Heat K, Philippa Forrester incorrectly introduced Axios as Axiom.
 * During Craig Charles' introduction in Heat L, he mentions that Oliver Cromwell "had to gather an army to fight the Roundheads". Oliver Cromwell actually led the Roundheads into battle to fight against Charles I of England and his Cavaliers.
 * Robert Bettington of Cold Fusion Team had his name misspelt as "Robert Bittington" in the statistics board.
 * Prizephita's team members' names on its stat board were mistakenly shown as those from Rattus Rattus.
 * Cassius 2's pneumatic ram was somewhat crudely described by Jonathan Pearce and its statistics board as a "flip-up paddle".
 * Jonathan Pearce claimed Psychokiller took two months to build, but the robot's statistics board said it took three months to build.
 * Chaos 2's statistics board referred to its weapon as a CO2 powered "flip-up" rather than flipper.
 * In the Series 3 recap, Jonathan Pearce said Gravedigger defeated Darke Destroyer in the second round and then Mortis in the Heat Final when it was the other way round. He also said Hypno-Disc defeated 101 in Round 1 of the semi-finals and Evil Weevil in Round 2 when it was the other way round.
 * When referring to Cold Fusion's past robot, Bodyhammer, Jonathan Pearce falsely stated that "it had no wheels".
 * On X-Terminator's statistics board, Marlon Pritchard's name was misspelt as "Marlen Pritchard".
 * Haydn James from Team General had his name misspelt as "Hayden James" on the robot's statistics board.

The Fourth Wars

 * When reviewing Razer's previous performances, a clip of it fighting Behemoth in the First World Championship final was shown as Jonathan Pearce described Razer's success in the International League Championship, and a clip of it fighting Diotoir in the International League Championship final was shown as he mentioned Razer's success in the First World Championship.
 * In Heat B, Stuart McDonald mispronounced Reptirron's name as 'Rep-tie-ron' during its introduction. Stefan Frank also made this same mistake.
 * Just before the Heat B Final took place, Julia Reed erroneously addressed Pussycat's driver, David Gribble, as "Robert".
 * In the first Heat C eliminator, Jonathan Pearce mentioned Scar as having a srimech, despite Scar being invertible and clearly seen running inverted.
 * During the battle between Firestorm 2 and Bolt from the Blue, Jonathan Pearce said "we've already lost two seeds" when actually three seeds (King B3, Razer and Diotoir) had gone out.
 * Disc-O-Inferno's name was misspelt twice during its appearance in Heat E. It was spelt as 'Disco Inferno' on the team caption when Julia Reed introduced them, and 'Disc O Inferno' on the battle boards. However, the correct spelling was present on the robot's statistics board and throughout its subsequent appearance in the Celebrity Special.
 * Destruct-A-Bubble's name was misspelt as Distruct-A-Bubble on the Sumo leaderboard. This mistake was also made in the Series 4 results in Robot Wars: The Ultimate Guide and the original Robot Wars Magazine.
 * When introducing Cronos and reviewing its previous performance, Jonathan Pearce merely referred to Scutter's Revenge as "Scutter".
 * Mazakari was erroneously credited with Mortis' statistics during its introduction.
 * Killertron was said to have finished third in Series 2, when in fact it finished fourth. The third place play-off from that year in which it lost to Roadblock was even shown, but Jonathan Pearce mistakenly said that this was when Killertron was eliminated from the competition.
 * When Hammer & Tong was attacked by the House Robots, Jonathan Pearce incorrectly said "Dead Metal in the middle" when Shunt was clearly in the middle and Dead Metal was not even present in the battle.
 * In the Northern Annihilator, Suicidal Tendencies was credited as seed #31. It was in fact seed #32, with Centurion being the real seed #31.
 * Weld-Dor's status as a seed was not mentioned in its intro.
 * On Spawn of Scutter's statistics board, team member Luke Jackman was simply credited as "Luke".
 * Despite being seeded 11th, Wild Thing was never announced as a seed.
 * Kane Aston of the Behemoth team had his name misspelt in the statistics board as "Kane Ashton".
 * Both Jonathan Pearce and Julia Reed incorrectly stated that Steg-O-Saw-Us' run in Series 3 ended at the semi-final stage when it actually ended in the Grand Final. Jonathan repeated this mistake in the semi-final battle between Chaos 2 and Steg 2. However, in both of 3 Stegs to Heaven's appearances, he used the correct statement.
 * During Hypno-Disc's Pinball Warrior run, Jonathan Pearce incorrectly said that Sgt Bash was Shunt.
 * In the first melee of Heat G, Jonathan Pearce tells Kronic the Wedgehog to "get off the flipper" when Kronic was actually over the pit of oblivion at the time.
 * In the Northern Annihilator final, after Dominator 2 had broken down, Jonathan Pearce said it was on the floor flipper, when it was actually on the pit.
 * At the end of second round of the Southern Annihilator, Jonathan Pearce said "It's all happening in front of us in the Northern Annihilator" when it was actually the Southern Annihilator. The Northern Annihilator was the previous episode.
 * Shadow of Napalm was mistakenly referred to as Son of Napalm in the recap in the grand final.
 * At the start of the battle between Chaos 2 and Steg 2, Chaos 2 was on the right and Steg 2 was on the left, but after the Chaos 2 team introduced themselves, Steg 2 was on the right and after the Steg 2 introduced themselves, Steg 2 remained on the right and Chaos 2 was on the left.
 * Before the War of Independence battle between Mortis and Panic Attack, Mortis was on the left and Panic Attack was on the right, but seconds later, they had swapped places.
 * In the Tag Team Terror, X-Terminator 2 was mistakenly mentioned as coming from Hertford when it actually came from Hereford.
 * For some strange reason, the picture of Stinger did not appear at the bottom of the screen when Julia Reed introduced them in the pits in Heat J although it did in the second semi-final and Northern Annihilator.
 * Craig Charles mistakenly referred to Bigger Brother as Big Brother 2 after interviewing the team after their loss to Bulldog Breed 2. It was also mistakenly listed as the name in the list of all the robots that competed in Series 4 at the start of the Grand Final. Similarly, Craig mistakenly referred to it as Bigger Brother 2 in the Tag Team Terror, although he then referred to it as its proper name.
 * The Shunt camera was on Dead Metal in Heat H while Dead Metal was attacking Wheely Big Cheese and also on Sir Killalot in Heat K when Sir Killalot attacked Tiberius.
 * Lee Summers from Team Knightmare was referred to as Lee Summer by Jonathan Pearce after reading its statistics. However, afterwards and in every other series Team Knightmare fought in, Lee was referred to as his correct name.
 * Jonathan Pearce mistakenly said Behemoth lost to Pitbull in the Series 3 Heat Final after getting stuck on an arena spike when it was in fact flipped by the arena spike.
 * Perhaps mistakenly, in his poem at the end of Heat G, Craig Charles said "Throw our punches", as opposed to "Pull our punches" - meaning to hold back.
 * In the list of all the robots that competed in Series 4, Inverterbrat was misspelt as Invertebrat, Darke Destroyer 2 was misspelt as Dark Destroyer 2, Clawed Hopper was misspelt as "Clawd Hopper" (also made on the Robot Wars Battle Card), Spikasaurus was misspelt as Spikeasaurus, Overkill GTI was simply listed as Overkill and Oblivion 2 was simply listed as Oblivion. Additionally, Saw Point was listed as Sawpoint (also made in the original Robot Wars Magazine).
 * During the battle between Splinter and Killerhurtz, Jonathan Pearce referred to Splinter by its previous incarnation, Ivanhoe and also called the pit of oblivion the floor flipper.
 * When announcing the winner of the Best Newcomer award, Attila the Drum was misspelt as "Atilla the Drum".
 * In Craig Charles' and Julia Reed's sign-off at the end of the Grand Final, they said they had had a brand new champion despite the fact Chaos 2 won the previous series.
 * On Suicidal Tendencies' statistics board, Charles Binns had his name misspelt as "Charled Binns".
 * Before their second round match against Sumpthing, Julia Reed said that Mousetrap's trap mechanism was a flipper.
 * Nigel Paget's name was misspelt as "Nigel Pagett" on Knightmare's statistics board.

Robot Wars Extreme

 * Ahead of the Challenge Belt battle between Behemoth and The Steel Avenger, Steel Avenger was stated to have gone out in round 1 in both of the previous wars (Series 3 and 4), when in reality it went out in the second and third rounds respectively.
 * The footage of X-Terminator entering the arena in its Vengeance in Episode 2 was of the newer Series 5 model, not the older X-Terminator 2 model with a spike fitted that actually fought the battle.
 * Prior to the Vengeance battle between X-Terminator and Panic Attack, Jonathan Pearce said that Panic Attack had reached the semi-final stage of the UK Championships on two previous occasions when it had actually made it to that stage in The Second Wars, The Third Wars and The Fourth Wars. However, it is true that Panic Attack fell at the semi-final stage on two occasions.
 * Curiously, the statistics listed for the Extreme 1 version of Maximill were those of the Dutch Series 1 version.
 * In the replay of Firestorm and Panic Attack's Series 3 battle before their All-Stars battle in Episode 3, Jonathan Pearce mistakenly refers to Alex Mordue as Graham Bone.
 * Before the All-Stars battle between Razer and Gemini, Jonathan Pearce said Chaos 2, Wheely Big Cheese and Hypno-Disc had already gone through. He was right about Chaos 2 and Wheely Big Cheese, but he was wrong about Hypno-Disc as Hypno-Disc lost to Behemoth in the first round.
 * At two points during the first Tag Team Terror Semi-Final, Jonathan Pearce incorrectly referred to Suicidal Tendencies as its teammate Steel Avenger.
 * King B Powerworks was referred to as King B3. It was only referred by its proper name a few times.
 * After Tornado got flipped by the floor flipper in the Mayhem in Episode 10, Jonathan Pearce said "and away they go, on the flipper floor" instead of "floor flipper".
 * The stats for Sir Killalot in the Challenge Belt battle between Tornado and Wild Thing were shown as those from the American series.
 * Throughout Episode 5, the Extreme Warriors/Nickelodeon series 'Cease' announcement was heard at the end of every battle instead of the usual UK version.
 * Before the Mayhem battle in Episode 4, Jonathan Pearce claimed Killertron was "twice a Grand Finalist", when it only reached the Grand Final once.
 * Stuart McDonald simply introduced Arnold A. Terminegger as Arnold Terminegger and mispronounced Flensburger Power as Flensburg Power.
 * Stuart McDonald simply introduced Arnold A. Terminegger as "Arnold Terminegger".
 * Before the last first round Tag Team Terror battle, Steve Merrill from Sir Chromalot said "We're going to do damage to Steel Lego and Suicidal Meccano." However, when Julia Reed interviewed the Steel Avenger and Suicidal Tendencies teams, she said he called them Steel Meccano and Suicidal Lego.
 * Before the first round of the first Annihilator, Jonathan Pearce said that Marlon Pritchard and Paul Lewis were present for Team X-Terminator, when Simon Baldwin was there instead of the latter.
 * During the second Annihilator, Jonathan Pearce incorrectly refers to Disc-O-Inferno as Hypno-Disc.
 * During the All-Stars semi final clash between Chaos 2 and Tornado, Jonathan Pearce says "could this be a first ever defeat for Chaos 2?" when it had previously been defeated twice in the First World Championship and Northern Annihilator.
 * During The Second World Championship, Jonathan Pearce kept stating that events that would happen later in the episode happened in The First World Championship; he claimed that Chaos 2 went out in round 1, when it reached the quarter-finals, that Diotoir fell in round 1, when it reached the semi-finals, that Firestorm fell in round 1, when it never actually competed, and that Tornado reached the semi-final when it hadn't even entered Robot Wars at the time.
 * Jonathan Pearce stated that Razer was the quickest robot in its Second World Championship heat, despite The Revolutionist being 4mph faster.
 * Despite adding a self-righting mechanism, Cerberus's weakness was listed as "No self-righting mechanism".
 * Philipper was misspelt as Philliper on its statistics board.
 * In the Second World Championship semi-final battle between Razer and Tornado, Jonathan Pearce said that Tornado were struggling to get their spinning drum into play, when they had the scoop on for the battle.
 * The clip used for the third round of the first Annihilator when Hypno-Disc entered the arena is in fact taken from the second round. X-Terminator, which was eliminated in that round, is visible in a wide shot.
 * Jonathan Pearce frequently credited Plunderbird 5 as having tracks, even though it ran on wheels and was the only Plunderbird model not to have tracks. He would make the same claim again in Series 5.
 * In the second Tag Team Terror semi-final, Sir Killalot is seen in the bottom left of the screen, but Matilda and Shunt were the actual house robots in the battle.

The Fifth Wars

 * Upon entering the arena, Stuart McDonald introduced Storm Force as "Storm". It was also referred to as that name in the Series 5 results in Robot Wars: The Ultimate Guide and the original Robot Wars Magazine.
 * Juggernot 2's statistics board claimed it was armed with an axe, however, only Juggernot 2's predecessor featured an axe weapon.
 * Juggernot 2's official image was sideways on its stat board.
 * Shredder's official image was terribly cropped on its stat board. It also said its weapon was a spinning disc when it had two spinning discs and team member Christopher Organ had his name misspelt as "Christopher Orga".
 * S3 was continually referred to as a newcomer, despite the team fighting in two previous wars with Sting; Philippa Forrester claimed they were "rookies", Craig Charles called them "the new kids on the block" and S3 was even nominated for the Most Promising Newcomer Award.
 * The Series 5 stat sheet mistakenly displayed S3's weight as 100kg when it was actually 90kg. This is proven in Series 6, when Ian Pritchard stated that the robot was 'another 8kg heavier than in Series 5'. As S3 weighed 98kg in Series 6, the robot having a weight of 100kg in Series 5 would be impossible, as this would make the Series 6 incarnation 2kg lighter.
 * Stuart McDonald simply introduced Napalm 2 as Napalm.
 * Strangely, Thermidor 2's weakness on its statistics board was listed as "Experienced Competitors", a statement that would usually be considered a strength, instead of "Fragile Shell" as it had been during the first series of Robot Wars Extreme.
 * Jonathan Pearce claimed at the start of Heat J that Panic Attack won Series 3, when it actually won the series before, Series 2. However, he made the correct claim later in the episode.
 * Tiberius 2 was introduced as Tiberus 2.
 * After speaking to the 13 Black team, Craig Charles mistakenly called them Black 13. It was also referred to as that name in the original Robot Wars Magazine.
 * When the "Most Promising Newcomer" Award nominations were listed, Crushtacean was misspelt as Crushtacen.
 * Before the Heat A second round match between Chaos 2 and Steel Avenger, Jonathan Pearce incorrectly stated that George Francis reached the Grand Final of Series 2 when he actually reached the Grand Final of Series 1.
 * During the match between Widow's Revenge and Sumpthing in Heat K, Jonathan Pearce said that Gillie Blood was "Vinnie's missus", when she was actually Vincent Blood's sister and Ian Lewis' fiancee.
 * At two points in Heat J, Philippa Forrester referred to Mini Morg as Mega Morg.
 * In the recap in the Grand Final, Jonathan Pearce incorrectly claimed that Chaos 2 defeated The Tartan Terror in Round 1, despite The Tartan Terror's opponent The Steel Avenger being visible in the clip. Chaos 2 defeated Storm Force in Round 1.
 * Before their battle against Derek, Jonathan Pearce said that Elliot Smart was amongst the Dominator 2 team members, when in reality, Paul Tolliday was present instead.
 * In the second semi-final, Jonathan Pearce incorrectly states that Team Firestorm had been with Robot Wars since the first wars.
 * During its battle against Kliptonite, Jonathan Pearce incorrectly states that Major Tom lost in the first round of the Fourth Wars, when it actually lost in the second round against 101.

The Sixth Wars

 * Jonathan Pearce kept stating that Cyrax was purple when it was clearly blue.
 * Jack Eastham from the Cedric Slammer team was incorrectly referred to as “Jack Barber”.
 * Jonathan Pearce claimed that Firestorm and Mega Hurts was the first occasion of both winners in the pit, when it also happened in Heat H of Series 4 in which Wheely Big Cheese and Wheelosaurus progressed despite being pitted, although, unlike Cedric Slammer and Colossus, loser Prizephita was as well.
 * When introducing Shredder, Jonathan Pearce claimed it had "beaten good machines such as Mousetrap in the past", when not only did Shredder lose to Mousetrap, but the robot and the team had not won a battle at that point. He later correctly said that Shredder lost to Mousetrap, during the Round 2 battle against The Alien. The recap of Shredder's loss to Mousetrap was even shown after the battle.
 * Jonathan Pearce said S3 only lost to Razer in Series 5 which is wrong as S3 lost to Bigger Brother in the Series 5 semi-finals but then won the Losers' Melee. It was after winning the Losers' Melee that S3 lost to Razer as Razer then beat Bigger Brother to win Series 5.
 * When introducing Wild Thing in Heat E, Jonathan Pearce referred to the Adams Family as having been a Semi-Finalist on two occasions, when it actually reached that stage in the previous three series. This was corrected in the first Semi-Final.
 * Craig Charles erroneously referred to Stinger as Stinger 3 following its Heat F final against 13 Black.
 * Terror-Bull was twice labelled as a new robot in Heat G, its previous appearance in Series 4 being completely ignored.
 * An editing error in the first battle of said heat showed Dead Metal in two different CPZs.
 * When Panic Attack entered the arena, Stuart McDonald said it was from Gwent in Gwent instead of Gwent in Wales.
 * Hypno-Disc's seeding was not stated when it entered the arena.
 * Razer's stat board incorrectly referred to the vertical crusher as a spike.
 * In the second round battle between Dominator 2 and S.M.I.D.S.Y. in Heat J, Jonathan Pearce incorrectly said "just seen there, Chris Hall" when the camera actually showed Paul Tolliday at the controls. He repeats this mistake in the semi-final first round match between Dominator 2 and Bigger Brother by saying "Chris Hall at the controls of Dominator 2".
 * After the battle between S3 and Dantomkia, the battle board showed it came before the battle between Firestorm 4 and 13 Black when it was the other way round. This was also made in the Sixth Wars League Table in the first issue of the second edition of the Robot Wars Magazine.
 * Craig Charles misquoted Chaos 2 as the 4th seed while interviewing the Dantomkia team after their loss to Razer.
 * In Semi-Final 2, an editing error during the Losers' Melee showed Mr Psycho and Sir Killalot in the same CPZ.
 * Whenever it appeared, Stuart McDonald would incorrectly pronounce Dantomkia.
 * During the battle between Razer and Cyrax, Jonathan Pearce said Razer were World Champions in 2000 and 2001. He was right about 2001 as that was when The Second World Championship was filmed, but The First World Championship was filmed in 1999. The only trophy Razer won in 2000 was the Fourth Wars Southern Annihilator.
 * When Firestorm 4 was introduced in Heat B, Jonathan Pearce said only Razer beat it in the last series. Though Razer was the one to defeat Firestorm 3 last, Firestorm 3 did previously lose to Hypno-Disc in the first round of the semi-finals.
 * When talking about Hot Pants, Jonathan Pearce said that the team's previous entry - Panda Monium, was defeated by Napalm in Series 3, when this actually occurred in Series 2.
 * When Comengetorix's lifting arm snapped off in its second round clash with Hydra, Jonathan Pearce incorrectly stated that Comengetorix's axe mechanism had broken instead.
 * The clip of Spawn Again entering the arena in the Losers' Melee is from its previous battle with Terrorhurtz.
 * Before Comengetorix's battle against Hydra, Jonathan Pearce incorrectly stated that Tom Curtis-Horsefall was present in the team's booth, when in reality, Tom's last appearance was in Extreme 1, and Bradley Jennings was present in The Sixth Wars instead.

Robot Wars Extreme 2

 * Graham Bone stated during the All-Stars that Firestorm had never fought Bigger Brother, when it was the second meeting between the two robots.
 * During the recap of the battle between Tornado and Bigger Brother, Jonathan Pearce mistakenly called Bigger Brother “Big Brother”.
 * When Hypno-Disc entered the arena in the All-Stars, Jonathan Pearce claimed they had twice reached the Grand Final, when they had actually reached three Grand Finals.
 * In the second melee of Heat B of the All-Stars when Growler was shown as a house robot, Shunt was behind when the other house robot was Sgt Bash.
 * Before both of Dominator 2's All Star battles, Jonathan Pearce incorrectly says that Paul Tolliday is present in the team booth, when in reality, Chris Hall is.
 * In the fourth battle in the Minor Meltdown, Jonathan Pearce mistakenly stated that Bigger Brother had defeated Razer in the past.
 * Sir Chromalot was mispronounced as Sir Chompalot in the Challenge Belt.
 * Firestorm 4 was shown with the United Kingdom flag instead of an English flag in the Commonwealth Carnage.
 * Neither Mini Morg or Velocirippa were introduced fully in their Tag Team Terror battles, with Mini Morg only being mentioned by name, and Velocirippa not even being announced at all.
 * In the Annihilator, Jonathan Pearce mistakenly said Thermidor 2 had never been beyond the heats when it actually reached the semi-finals in Series 4.
 * In the University Challenge, C.V. was labeled as a newcomer despite appearing in the first series of Robot Wars Extreme.
 * Behemoth's scoop was referred to as a 'flipper' on its statistics board in both the Iron Maidens and University Challenge.
 * PulverizeR was shown behind the Irish flag, instead of the Dutch flag after losing to Razer in the European Championship.
 * At the end of the first Middleweight fight, Craig Charles calls Steel Sandwich Steel Sandwich Jnr.
 * Half of Saw Point's stats were the same as A-Kill's.
 * When Maximus is introduced in the second round of its New Blood Heat A fight with Roobarb, the picture behind the team shows an image of Firestorm instead of Maximus.
 * Just before the second semi-final in the European Championship, Vincent Blood stated that it was the fifth encounter between Razer and Tornado. However, due to copyright issues and various other laws, it was the fourth meeting between the two robots, despite Vincent being correct.

The Seventh Wars

 * After the second melee in Heat B, the board displaying the results wrongly showed that Killerkat, rather than Gyrobot, had qualified along with Jackson Wallop. Jonathan Pearce's commentary made the same remark.
 * Lightning's statistics board incorrectly displayed its specifications from the time of Robot Wars Extreme: Series 2.
 * Leveller 2's statistics board featured a spelling error, causing it to be known as 'Leveler 2'.
 * Tomahawk's statistics board misspelled the robot as 'Tomohawk'.
 * While introducing Sawpoint 2 in Heat E, Jonathan Pearce claimed that it debuted in Series 6 and lost in the first round, despite Team A-Kill's original version of Saw Point failing to qualify for Series 6 at all. Saw Point lost in the first round of the Extreme 2 Minor Meltdown, while the team's other Series 6 entry, A-Kill, reached the second round.
 * At the start of Heat H, Jonathan Pearce claimed Ming Dienasty was fighting "three newcomers to UK Robot Wars" - while Ceros was a newcomer, and Scraptosaur was new to the UK series, Metalis came from an experienced team that fought in three previous UK championships.
 * When Scraptosaur entered the Arena, Jonathan Pearce claimed it had once reached a Semi-Final in Dutch Robot Wars. Scraptosaur actually reached the Grand Final in Dutch Series 2, as there were no Semi-Finals in the format for the Dutch series.
 * Jonathan Pearce kept pronouncing Ceros as "Seer-ros" during the round 1 battle, but later pronounced it correctly from Round 2 onwards.
 * Storm 2's stats show it has interchangeable weapons, whereas Tornado's weapons only say it has a 'chain flail'
 * Stuart McDonald did not state Bulldog Breed's seed when it entered the arena in Heat K, though Jonathan Pearce did mention it. However, he did state Bulldog Breed's seed when it entered the arena in the first semi-final.
 * Whenever he appeared, Jonathan Pearce would state that Growler was the fastest House Robot. In actual fact, Cassius Chrome was the fastest House Robot.
 * Just before activate was called in the second melee of Heat D, the participating robots from the first melee were shown instead.
 * An editing error before the first battle of Heat F showed Sgt Bash and Shunt in the same CPZ, through roughly the same shot.
 * Jonathan Pearce incorrectly states in the Series 7 All Stars special that Pussycat reached five heat finals - this fact being incorrect not only for the robot itself, but also for Cold Fusion Team in general, as they did not reach the heat final in Series 2, did not enter in Series 6, and were knocked out by M2 in the second round of The Seventh Wars.
 * During the third round 1 battle in the Third World Championship, Jonathan Pearce incorrectly said Tornado defeated Razer to win The Seventh Wars when it was actually the Sixth Wars (Typhoon 2 won The Seventh Wars and Razer did not even enter The Seventh Wars).
 * In the first semi-final, when Jayne Middlemiss was telling the Tornado team who they were up against, Andrew Marchant accidentally called Raging Knightmare "Raging Reality". Raging Reality was Team Knightmare's robot from the Sixth Wars. They retired that robot and built Raging Knightmare for the Seventh Wars.
 * Jonathan Pearce made an error in the commentary for the Heat G Final regarding Atomic. He claimed that it reached the Heat Final of Series 3 and was beaten by Hypno-Disc in Series 4. It actually reached the Heat Final of Series 4 and was beaten by Hypno-Disc in Series 5.
 * At the end of Heat C, when it shows you who is competing in the next episode, Jonathan Pearce incorrectly said 13 Black was seeded 3rd when it was actually seeded 7th. Similarly, in the World Championship qualifier in Heat O, he said it was seeded 13th.
 * When Mighty Mouse entered the arena for its first round melee in Heat J, Jonathan Pearce stated that they had "previously fought in the tag team, but never alone", which is incorrect, as Trevor Wright's machine reached the second round of The Sixth Wars.
 * G2 was referred to as "Cheese 2" in the Featherweight Championship due to a scripting error.
 * In Heat F, Jayne Middlemiss incorrectly says in the pre-match interview with X-Terminator that the team have competed in Robot Wars since the Fourth Wars. Oddly, the team acknowledges her statement.
 * An editing error in the Heat O Final showed the Drop Zone suspending a TV before it dropped a cooker on Iron-Awe 2.1.
 * In Heat F, Stuart McDonald incorrectly pronounces Tsunami as "Tuss-ami".
 * In Heat H, Stuart McDonald incorrectly introduces Mega Hurts LT as Mega Hurts Limited, the LT in fact standing for laptop.
 * On Mantis' stats board, Jonathan Leversedge's name was incorrectly spelt as "Lonathan Levereidge".
 * In Heat L, when Crushtacean was introduced in its first round melee, Jonathan Pearce said it was through to the World Final, when Crushtacean was really through to the World Championships, not the World Final.
 * Just before the second commercial break of said episode, Jonathan Pearce said the second round 2 battle was going to be between UFO and Judge Shred 2 when it was actually Judge Shred 3. However, after the break, he did correct himself.
 * Stuart McDonald did not state Storm 2's seed in the Grand Final but did in the Third World Championship.
 * During Steel Avenger's first round battle, Jonathan Pearce said it had been around for a long time and was beaten a couple of times by Chaos 2 when it was only beaten once by Chaos 2.
 * When introducing The Stag, Jonathan Pearce said that they had failed to get out of the first round in two previous attempts, when they had only appeared once previously - in Robot Wars: The Sixth Wars.

2016 Series

 * In Episode 1, during the Round 2 fight between Terrorhurtz and Carbide, Jonathan Pearce said "They [Terrorhurtz] have never faced a real spinner before." Terrorhurtz fought Fluffy, a robot of similar design to Carbide, in Series 5.
 * In Episode 2, before the head-to-head battle between Thor and Foxic, Angela Scanlon stated that Thor was not yet through to the heat final. However, the previous results meant it would have been impossible for two robots to finish ahead of it in the league table.
 * In the same battle, Jonathan Pearce claimed that Foxic featured "lithium polymer armament". Not only is this an incorrect use of the term armament, but it is Foxic's batteries that are lithium-powered, not its armour.
 * Thor's statistics board listed its weight as 110kg. This is an error, as Thor's weight varies between 105kg and 108kg depending on what axe heads and front plates it uses.
 * In Episode 2, Jonathan Pearce stated that Thor had been fighting for fifteen years during its Head to Head against M.R. Speed Squared. However, when excluding Team Thor’s earlier machines Monkey Nuts and Dorkus, which failed to qualify for Series 4 and 5, and taking into consideration Thor’s hiatus from live events between 2004-2007, Thor has actually spent a total of eleven years in robot combat starting from its Series 6 debut.
 * Terror Turtle's statistics board listed its combined weight, with its clusterbot The Hatchling, as 110kg. This is an error, as Terror Turtle's combined weight is 107.5kg (86kg + 21.5kg)
 * When the battle between Storm 2 and Eruption was sent to a Judges' decision, Jonathan Pearce erroneously referred to the criteria as style, damage, and aggression instead of control, damage and aggression.
 * TR2's statistics board in the Grand Final stated its weapon as being a 'Pneumatic Axe', ignoring the flipper and despite its rear axe being removed for the Final. This error was not present on TR2's statistics board during its appearance in Episode 3.
 * During the Grand Final battle between Carbide, Shockwave and Apollo, Jonathan Pearce says that he has never seen the arena wall get destroyed before. This had in fact happened on two previous occasions in the Series 7 Grand Final, at the hands of Typhoon 2. The arena wall had also previously been damaged by S3, Topbot and Gravity. He may however have meant in the 2016 series it had not been destroyed.
 * Dead Metal's statistics incorrectly state that his saw is 4500mm wide, which would be impossible due the size of the head Dead Metal has.
 * Sometimes a House Robot would appear but there would be no introduction for them, for example, Matilda appeared in the Grand Final but was not given an introduction.
 * In the Grand Final, during the Round 2 fight between Thor and Carbide, Jonathan Pearce said "That, Thor thus far have not come up against a spinner" despite facing DisConstructor and M.R. Speed Squared in its heat.
 * Apollo's statistics board stated that it is from Birmingham, when it is actually from Prestatyn in North Wales. Beast was also incorrectly referred to as from Norwich, when it is actually from Lichfield in Staffordshire.

US Season 1

 * Before the battle between Manta and Tiger Cat, the UK series 'Roboteers standby' was heard instead of the usual US version.
 * Spawn Again's weakness according to its tech stats was referred to as having no self-righting mechanism despite the fact that it was armed with a flipper (though this could technically be true since it did not have a roll-cage at that time).
 * In the US broadcast of The Second World Championship, Mick Foley announced Switzerland as one of the competing nations, but in actuality, it wasn't.

US Season 2

 * At the end of the Heat D first round battle between The Revolutionist, Trackzilla and The Gap, the UK 'cease' announcement was heard instead of the usual US version.
 * The UK 'cease' announcement was also heard at the end of the International Championship battle between General Chompsalot 2 and Brawler.
 * After Dragbot dislodged The Termite's rear panel during the Heat F battle between them and King of Diamonds, Stefan Frank mistakenly stated that the panel came off King of Diamonds.
 * Interestingly, the description of Sir Killalot's power source on his statistics board throughout this season used the UK term 'petrol' rather than the US term 'gas', which would have been more correct for the US and Nickelodeon series.

Nickelodeon Robot Wars

 * Neither Zanzara or Diskotek were introduced fully in their first appearances in the International Tag Team Terror and Mayhem, respectively. Zanzara was only mentioned by name and Diskotek was not announced at all.
 * At the end of the Tag Team Terror battle between The Revolutionist & Spin Doctor and Zanzara & Run Away, the UK series 'Cease' announcement was heard instead of the usual US/Nickelodeon version.

Dutch Series 1

 * While Blue's statistics were being displayed, there was no commentary from Eric Corton.

Dutch Series 2

 * Throughout its appearances, Krab-Bot's name was spelt as Krab Bot on its statistics boards, without the hyphen.
 * Before the Heat C battle between Krab-Bot and Alien Destructor 2, Dead Metal was shown sitting inside the top-left CPZ during his introduction, before the cameras immediately cut to him sitting outside it before the opening countdown.

German Series

 * Before the first battle of Heat A, Barbaric Response and Firestorm 4 can clearly be seen in the arena instead of Thorgrim, Tyke and Son of Armageddon when Growler is being introduced.
 * Additionally, Mr. Psycho is visible in a CPZ during the same clip, despite Matilda immediately being introduced after Growler and joining Growler in the arena for the aforementioned battle.
 * In the German version of the first Second World Championship heat, Chaos 2’s statistics board shows its Series 6 stats instead of its Extreme 1/Series 5 stats, which would have been more accurate for this battle.
 * Additionally, Mastiff’s power source is listed as a 12V electric motor instead of a 24V one, and Ansgar’s dimensions are listed as 0.75 x 0.75 x 0.75 instead of 0.75 x 0.75 x 0.34 as in the UK broadcast.

Video games
This does not include glitches
 * In Robot Wars: Metal Mayhem's credits, Mentorn Barraclough Carey is misspelt as Mentron Baraclough Carey. This mistake was also repeated in Robot Wars: Arenas of Destruction with it being misspelt as Mentorn Baraclough Carey.
 * In Metal Mayhem, the original Thermador is known as Thermidor II.
 * In Metal Mayhem, Diotoir and Sir Chromalot are two dimensional only.
 * In Metal Mayhem, Crasha Gnasha is purple despite the fact that the real-life version and the menu artwork are blue.
 * For some reason, a screenshot of Ultor is featured on the back of the Metal Mayhem box, even though it does not appear in the game.
 * In Metal Mayhem, Chaos 2's weapon is listed as a "Pneumatic Axe".
 * In Arenas of Destruction, Terrorhurtz' decal is 1012 when it should be Hz12.
 * For some reason, Coopertron, a super heavyweight in Arenas of Destruction, is allowed to compete in heavyweight competitions Robot Wars Championship and the Assault. Another error allows Mortis to compete in the axe-exclusive Hamburg Heavyweight tournament even though it has a lifting arm.
 * In Arenas of Destruction and Extreme Destruction's credits, Panic Attack member Christian Bridge has his name in brackets. This could be due to him joining the team via winning the competition in the Robot Wars Magazine.
 * In Arenas of Destruction's credits, Diotoir team member Peter Redmond is misspelt as Peter Redmodn.
 * In Arenas of Destruction, Firestorm 2 is known simply as Firestorm.
 * In Arenas of Destruction, most of the competitor robots have incorrect weights compared to their real life versions. The most notable example of this is that Mortis weighs 95kg in the game when it actually weighed 79.3kg in real life. Note that Mortis did not compete in Series 5 or Extreme 1, so the possible theory that it was reflecting the then-new 100kg weight limit is incorrect.
 * In Arenas Of Destruction, Jonathan Pearce incorrectly states that the floor flipper is used for insult to injury on immobilised robots. This is incorrect, as if competitor robots linger for too long on the floor flipper, it will fire automatically.
 * In the US version of Robot Wars: Advanced Destruction, the credits for game commentary still goes to Jonathan Pearce, even though he was replaced by another voice actor for this version.
 * In Advanced Destruction's instruction booklet and credits, the Mortis team is credited as Mortis Infranor. Infranor motors was actually a sponsor for Mortis.
 * In Advanced Destruction's instruction booklet and credits, Mortis team member Ben Gordon is listed as "Ben Gord" and Onslaught team member Peter Holland is listed as "Pete Holland". Note that Peter Holland was not present with the Onslaught team in Series 4 or 5 and Ben Gordon was not present with the Mortis team in Series 4. On the other hand, it was Paul Ford who was present with Mortis in Series 4 and Mark Holland who was present with Onslaught in Series 4 and 5.
 * In the PC and Xbox version of Robot Wars: Extreme Destruction, the model used for Tornado is actually its Series 4 model with its spinning disc added. The pneumatics for the spike, its weapon in Series 4, are still present.
 * In the PC and Xbox version of Extreme Destruction, Spanners is not invertible. This despite the fact that fully recreating Spanners via the workshop gives the robot the ability to do so.
 * In the PC and Xbox version of Extreme Destruction, Firestorm has two intros - the first intro is from Arenas of Destruction and the second intro is for Firestorm 3.
 * The Robot Wars arena in the PC and Xbox version Extreme Destruction incorrectly shows four house robots in the CPZs, a working Drop Zone and the Series 4 Floor Flipper. The arena should have two house robots, a non-functional Drop Zone and the Series 5 Floor Flipper.
 * In the PC and Xbox version of Extreme Destruction, the Robot Wars arena pit descends after one minute and forty seconds, regardless of if the pit button was pressed or not. This feature was only implemented in Series 4 and should not occur in this version of the Robot Wars arena.
 * In the PC and Xbox version of Extreme Destruction, robots that were invertible in real-life, like Suicidal Tendencies, Thermidor 2 and Wheely Big Cheese, do not inherit this ability in the game. This would be a glitch, had it not been for the fact that 101 and Tornado are invertible in the game.
 * In the PC and Xbox version of Extreme Destruction, Wheely Big Cheese's underside is grey, when it should be the same as the top. It also has a caster wheel on the underside, something it lacked in real-life.
 * In the PC and Xbox version of Extreme Destruction, Thermidor 2's back is pointed, like its Series 4 version, even though the game is based around Extreme or Series 5, where it had a rounded back.
 * In the PC and Xbox version of Extreme Destruction, Todd Mendenhall is not listed as one of Panzer Mk 4's team member on the battle board, despite always being part of the team.
 * In the PC and Xbox version of Extreme Destruction, Hypno-Disc has three top mounted and two rear mounted spikes, like the Arenas of Destruction model, despite the fact that this Hypno-Disc should have been based on the Series 5 version (which had a single top spike).

Other games

 * In Robot Wars: The Game, Chaos 2 has triangular wheel covers on each side, which it never had in real-life.
 * In The Game, Destruct-A-Bubble has no spike, unlike in real-life.
 * In The Game, Razer has no self-righting wings, nor a curved claw.
 * In The Game, Suicidal Tendencies has a front scoop that was only used in BattleBots and never in Robot Wars.
 * In pack four of the Robot Wars Battle Cards, some robots have incorrect weights, with most being over their actual weights.
 * In pack four of Battle Cards, images for most of the robots, such as Thor and Barber-Ous 2, are of their Extreme 2 versions, despite the cards being based on Series 6.

Toys

 * In each of its appearances, Hypno-Disc is shown with its Series 3 disc.
 * All the toys of Panic Attack lack the signature spider design on the top.
 * The "XT" logo and the entire axe head on the X-Terminator 2 pullback is upside down. The image of it on its statistics card shows it the right way up.
 * On the statistics card for the Sir Killalot pullback, one of its weapons was listed as a flamethrower.
 * Shunt's wheel caps are black rather than grey. It is interesting to note that the advertisement shows Shunt with white or light grey wheel caps.
 * The size of the pullbacks side by side is incorrect correlation to real life.
 * The Smash N Crash playset colours on the actual set do not always match those on the box or the official artwork. The image on the front of the box shows primarily grey targets on the H frames, stickers not present on the actual toy and a grey switch to control the flipper, whereas the panels are primarily yellow, and the flipper switch is black on the actual toy. The official artwork, as seen on the Robot Wars online shop, shows a grey fighting platform and grey and red striped ramps, whereas the fighting platform on the actual toy is black, and the ramps have yellow and black stripes.

Magazine

 * The original Robot Wars Magazine incorrectly stated that Spawn of Scutter had defeated Gravedigger on its way to the Series 4 semi-finals, despite the picture in the magazine clearly showing them fighting Vercingetorix. In fact, Team Scutterbots and Gravedigger never fought each other on Robot Wars, although both teams were in the same heat in the following series.
 * In some Series 4 heat reports, some of the round 2 battles were swapped round. For example, in Issue 14, the report for Heat O says the battle between Aggrobot 2 and S.M.I.D.S.Y. came before the battle between Panic Attack and Saw Point when it was the other way round.
 * In Issue 17, the picture of Sir Killalot pitting Cronos is said to be from Heat E when it was from Heat D.
 * In the section for the Series 5 competitors, some robots are listed as being in the wrong heats.
 * Mini Morg is referred to as Mega Morg.
 * In the first issue of the second edition, there were two Battle 2s for the write-up of Heat B instead of one Battle 1 and one Battle 2.
 * In the Sixth Wars league table, four heats have the round 1 battles reversed.
 * The first issue of the second edition of the Robot Wars Magazine said Firestorm won Series 4 when it lost in the semi-finals of that series. It also said Stinger lost in the Series 4 Grand Final to the 2nd seed Chaos 2 when it was actually seeded 1st and Tornado was knocked out by Diotoir in the first round of the Fifth Wars when it was actually the second round.
 * In the first issue of the Titan magazine, during an article on the Series 6 qualifiers, Destruct-A-Bubble was erroneously referred to as Destructor.
 * In Issue 2 of the Titan magazine, an image from Firestorm 4 vs X-Terminator is used in the battle report for The Alien vs Shredder.
 * In the magazine, Panic Attack was said to have been knocked out twice by Firestorm when it was actually knocked out three times at the time.
 * One other notable mistake in Issue 4 of the magazine showed a picture of Terror-Bull on Terrorhurtz's statistics sheet. There was also a picture of Terror-Bull's team on the next page instead of Terrorhurtz's team in Terrorhurtz's lowdown and history.
 * Granny's Revenge 2 was said to have had a washing machine dropped in it when it was actually an oven.
 * In the 'Tech Round Up' section from Issue 4 of the Titan magazine, Axios and Toe Cutter are erroneously mentioned as the first two robots to face Hypno-Disc in Series 3, instead of Robogeddon and Stealth respectively.
 * In Issue 5 of the Titan magazine, Behemoth was said to have won the Extreme Series 1 Challenge Belt. It actually won the belt for two battles, but then lost to Tornado.
 * The statistics for Behemoth in Issue 5 also referred to its scoop as a 'flipper'.
 * In the same issue in Disc-O-Inferno's lowdown and history, the robot's name was misspelt as Disco-O-Inferno.
 * Additionally, Disc-O-Inferno's history section in Issue 5 also ignored its victory in the second Extreme 1 Annihilator.
 * Also in Issue 5 of the Titan magazine, Bigger Brother was stated to have ‘defeated every champion of the Wars’ except Razer, despite not having fought either Panic Attack or Roadblock by the time of the magazine’s publication.
 * In the list of all the toys released, Gemini is excluded from the list of Minibots.
 * In Issue 7 of the Titan magazine, the image of Terrorhurtz in the pit is from the Extreme 2 Challenge Belt final, not its All Stars battle.
 * Also in Issue 7, Kan-Opener's height was mistakenly listed as 26cm instead of 24cm, although this was corrected later on in the same issue.
 * A number of errors regarding the House Robots' statistics were present throughout Issue 7 of the Titan magazine, particularly in the first 'Battle Zone' section:
 * As with other Robot Wars publications, Sergeant Bash was listed as having a circular saw as part of his weaponry, despite it being disabled since Series 3. Additionally, his pincers are not mentioned at all on his 'Battle Zone' stats.
 * Ironically, despite being the fastest House Robot by the time of the magazine's publication, Growler's weakness was listed as 'slow speed' in the 'Battle Zone' section.
 * Mr Psycho's 'Battle Zone' stats stated that his weaknesses included being 'Very slow and cumbersome', despite Mr Psycho having the same top speed as Sergeant Bash and the original Matilda, and being faster than Refbot and the original Sir Killalot.
 * Refbot's front plough and rear scoops were referred to as 'shunts', and listed as weapons in his 'Battle Zone' stats despite not being intended for combat use.
 * In a behind-the-scenes article on the House Robots later in the issue, Sir Killalot's stats listed his weight as 500kg instead of 520kg.
 * Matilda's tusks were described as hydraulic instead of pneumatic.
 * Diotoir was spelt inconsistently throughout the second magazine. Although often spelt correctly, it was frequently spelt "Diottor". Sometimes, both spellings were used in the same issue.
 * The Fantasy Fights in the original magazine made frequent visual errors and inconsistencies to the robots they depicted. These include the following:
 * Chaos 2's flipper mechanism is portrayed inaccurately in its Grudge Match against Cassius. When it opened, it was depicted as having a single ram and being hinged half-way up its front, as opposed to having twin rams and being hinged at the top as on the real robot and in its later Fantasy Fights.
 * Sir Chromalot's drill and cobalt cutter are combined in its battle against Plunderbird 4.
 * Spawn of Scutter is merely named "Spawn" in its fight against Aggrobot 2, and its spike is completely absent.
 * Behemoth's scoop and srimech are both portrayed inaccurately in its battle against Gemini and Wild Thing. Wild Thing also acts as a full-body flipper, a design it did not have.
 * As well as being misnamed (as above), Destruct-A-Bubble's lance is portrayed as static in its battle against Robochicken and Banshee. Robochicken's beak also mistakenly has its protective covering in the battle, and its axe-spike disappears completely when it first attacks Banshee.
 * Scorpion is missing all three of its spinning discs in its fight against Terror-Bull and Bulldog Breed 2. Bulldog Breed is also shown to be capable of self-righting.
 * In both Cronos vs Reptirron and Diotoir vs The Creature, the arena angle grinders are shown to be extremely large twin vertical saw blades. Not only does this not match any set-up the actual angle grinders had, but it is inaccurate for the arena at the time, as the Series 4 arena did not have angle grinders.
 * Cronos' claw is portrayed as static in its battle against Reptirron, and its wedge, which is undersized, is shown to have the ability to lift.
 * Knightmare is wedged onto its side in its fight against Gravedigger and The Morgue, which would be impossible in real life.
 * Firestorm 2, Bolt From the Blue and Tornado are all portrayed inaccurately in their fight. Firestorm is still sporting its wedge-guard, Bolt From the Blue's flipper opens too far back and Tornado's spike is static. Also, at one point during the fight, Bolt From the Blue sidestrands Tornado and goes to attack Firestorm, only to fly up its wedge and collide with Tornado again, all while going in the same direction.
 * Raizer Blade's lifting arm is portrayed inaccurately in its battle against Razer.
 * Sump Thing's axe is portrayed inaccurately in its battle against Onslaught and Scar.
 * Saw Point is missing its front spike in its battle against Spikasaurus. Spikasaurus itself is missing its spikes in one frame.
 * When Evil Weevil 2 collides with Milly-Ann Bug and Little Fly in their battle, a wheel is shown breaking off. However, in the next three shots, the robots have all their wheels intact.
 * Stinger, Mortis and Hypno-Disc are all portrayed inaccurately in their fight. Stinger's arm is shown permanently pointing upwards, Mortis is devoid of its armour and Hypno-Disc's flywheel is in its Series 3 design except for the last two panels.

Robot Wars: The Ultimate Guide

 * The quickest battle at the time is stated to be Evolution and Spawn Again, at 19.1 seconds, when the record at the time was Cerberus vs Griffon from Series 3. Even though they could have been counting the total time before 'cease' was called, it then goes on to state that Wheely Big Cheese vs Axe-Awe was 12 seconds long, and that battle involved an immediate immobilisation.
 * S3's former incarnation is said to be Triterobot, despite it mentioning that it was Mousetrap's original incarnation, and its battle history is in Mousetrap's column (with the robot also being incorrectly put down as 'Tri-Terra-Bot' on both counts). S3's true former incarnation was Sting, although this is not mentioned at all.
 * In S.M.I.D.S.Y.'s battle history, it states it was beaten in Round 2 in The Third Wars by Dreadnaut (also misspelled 'Dreadnought'), when it was beaten in Round 1 by Rattus Rattus.
 * The results for The Fourth Wars: Sumo Basho are incomplete and partially incorrect. The only robots shown are Maverick, Diotoir, Firestorm 2, S.M.I.D.S.Y., Spawn of Scutter, X-Terminator, Scorpion, Razer and Bigger Brother. In addition, it states Spawn of Scutter won the tournament (Panic Attack won it yet it isn't even mentioned in the time list), and Scorpion, Razer, Spawn of Scutter and Bigger Brother's times are all incorrect.
 * In the Robot Wars Extreme: Series 1 results, it says Spirit of Knightmare won Annihilator 2 when Disc-O-Inferno did, and Anty B won the Antweight Melee when Combat Ant did (ironically, Anty B would go on to win the antweight competition in the next series of Extreme).
 * The weapon stats for 101's, Chaos 2's and S.M.I.D.S.Y.'s profiles are wrong - 101's and Chaos 2's weapon stats say "Vertically Mounted Flywheel" whilst S.M.I.D.S.Y.'s reads "Axe and Lifter". Chaos 2 in reality had a flipper, S.M.I.D.S.Y. had jaws (that could act as a lifter somewhat) and a disc and 101 had a spear which had a sensor.
 * Kronic 2's former incarnation is said to be Wedgehog although in fact the two robots were built by different teams.
 * Atomic is said to have flipped Reactor out of the arena in the qualifiers. Robots were never allowed to flip each other OotA in the qualifiers due to safety concerns.
 * The Series 4 heats F and M are in the wrong place. The guide says Wild Thing and Sir Chromalot were in Heat F and Tornado and Gemini in Heat M, when it is the other way round - this mistake is repeated in the Sir Chromalot profile. In reality, according to the seed distribution, the listing in the Ultimate Guide would be the consistent place, despite not being the reality.
 * It states that Growler weighs 420kg and Mr. Psycho weighs 600kg when Growler and Mr. Psycho actually weighed 375kg and 750kg respectively.
 * ORAC's Revenge is incorrectly named DRAC's Revenge in the Series 3 guide.
 * In the Series 3 guide, Thermador is spelt with an "I" in place of the "A". This error also appears in Thermidor 2's Battle History and in its Former Incarnations.
 * In the Fourth Wars War of Independence, it states that Ming 3 took part, when Ming 2 took part. Ming 3 hadn't been made yet.
 * Behemoth's weapons stat only has Pneumatic Scoop as the weapon, saying nothing about the axe.
 * In the House Robots section, it states that Sergeant Bash has a Rear-mounted Cutting Disc even though it was deactivated and was only for show in the Third Series.
 * In Mini Morg's History, it says that they lost in round one to Kat 3 in the Fifth Wars. Later, in the Worst Moment section it says that they lost to Kater Killer. In real life they lost to Kat 3, although Kater Killer was made by the same team.
 * In the second bout of Heat N of the Fourth Wars where the combatants were Millennium Bug, X-Terminator, and Judge Shred 2, Millennium Bug is just called Millenium.
 * It misspells Panzer Wraith as "Panzerwrath".
 * It calls The Parthian Shot "The Parthian Scott".
 * Demon Duck is simply reduced to "Demon".
 * Corporal Punishment is misspelled "Corp Punishment" in the Internet Insurrection report.
 * Firestorm is credited as having scored 185 points in the Series 4 Pinball Tournament when it only scored 135 points.
 * In the Series 4 results, the semi-finals have the wrong robots listed. Spawn of Scutter, Panic Attack, Stinger and Mousetrap are said to have fought in Semi-Final 1, whilst Pussycat, Thermidor 2, Firestorm 2 and Dominator 2 are said to have fought in Semi-Final 2. In reality, it was the other way round. The Grand Final eliminators are also reversed.
 * Pussycat is stated as reaching the Extreme 1 All-Stars Semi-Finals when it actually reached the All-Stars Quarter-Finals.
 * The Longest Running Grudge is said to be between Pussycat and Razer, when that had only lasted two fights (the second of which was only acted out for entertainment purposes), even though grudges such as the one between Panic Attack and Firestorm or King Buxton and Team 101 had lasted more fights (They had both fought each other three times).
 * In Thermidor 2's Best Moment, it incorrectly states that Thermidor 2 threw Behemoth and Stinger out of the arena in the Tag Team Tournament when this actually occured in the Mayhem battles.
 * Major Tom's Extreme Series 1 information is not listed.
 * Crasha Gnasha is incorrectly listed as Crash Gnasha in the Series 3 results. Also, Ally Gator is misspelt as Ally Gaitor, Inverterbrat is misspelt as Invertebrat and Darke Destroyer is misspelt as Dark Destroyer.
 * Tiberius 2 is misspelt as Tiberious 2 in the Series 5 results. This is also made on the Robot Wars website on Carbide's page.
 * Destruct-A-Bubble is misspelt as Distruct-A-Bubble in the Series 4 results.
 * The Series 4 results also incorrectly states Big Brother competed in Heat J when it was actually Bigger Brother who competed in Heat J.
 * In the Extreme Series 1 results, King B Powerworks is credited as King B3.
 * It mistakenly says Razer and Gemini both won the Series 4 Best Design Award when in real life, only Gemini won the award.
 * It does not mention Roadblock's successor Beast of Bodmin despite the former having a profile.
 * In the Series 4 results, Dreadnaut XP-1 is simply listed as Dreadnaut, Darke Destroyer 2 is simply listed as Darke Destroyer, The Morgue is simply listed as Morgue and The Predator is simply listed as Predator. Additionally, Bigger Brother is listed as Bigger Brother 2 in the Sumo Basho, Pinball Warrior and Tag Team Terror results.
 * In the Series 5 results, Napalm 2 is simply listed as Napalm.
 * Draven is referred to by original name, Anthrax.
 * In Dominator 2's battle history, it says that Dominator 2 reached the Semi Finals of the Fifth Wars 'by surviving one of Wheely Big Cheese's legendary flips'. This actually happened in the first round of the Semi Finals.
 * Napalm's Extreme 1 performance only lists it reached the Annihilator in the Mayhem, ignoring its Tag Team Terror and Vengeance information.
 * Mortis' weight is listed as 100kg when it was actually 79.3kg from when it last competed.
 * King B Powerworks' Extreme Series 1 performance ignores its Mayhem and Wild Card Warrior battles.
 * Chaos 2's Series 5 performance says it flipped Storm Force into the pit in Round 1 when it actually placed Storm Force on the pit before activating the pit button.
 * Storm Force is listed as "Storm" in the Series 5 results. Also, Bulldog Breed 3 is listed as Bulldog Breed 2.

Robot Wars Extreme: The Official Guide

 * Sergeant Bash's rear cutting disc is mentioned, even though by that series it was no longer active.
 * Behemoth is claimed to have lost on points to Pitbull in the Series 3 Heat Final, when it was actually immobilized after getting flipped. However, it was eventually re-righted and active at the end of the fight, so the error may have been based on that.
 * One of the Behemoth team members is mistakenly listed as "Derek Pritchard".
 * On Diotoir's profile, it states that Firestorm flipped it into the pit to win the Heat Final in Series 3. This would not have been possible as the pit was not used for the Heat Final onwards. Firestorm actually flipped Diotoir onto the flame pit.
 * Panic Attack is listed as coming from Ipswich, when it in fact comes from Cwmbran.
 * Stinger is listed with a 0 ground clearance, which is an impossibility considering its design.
 * Stinger's profile also mentions "All of that (Stinger's workings) is bad news for Chaos 2, who are top of Stinger's hit list after knocking Stinger out of the Fourth Wars in a Semi-Final that Stinger controversially claims was fixed!". That battle actually took place in the Grand Final, not a Semi-Final.
 * In Bigger Brother's history, it is stated that Big Brother beat Sir Chromalot to win the Heat Final. This actually happened during the second round of the heat. Big Brother actually "beat" Ultor to win the Heat Final, and the guide, as a result, fails to mention the events that took place in that heat.
 * Napalm is listed as being able to go at 20 mph, when it has been stated it can only go at 8 mph.
 * In Suicidal Tendencies's profile, Raizer Blade is misspelt as "Razer Blade".
 * Thermidor 2's predecessor, Thermador, is continuously spelt in the same way the sequel is.
 * S.M.I.D.S.Y.'s guide claims that Rattus Rattus pushed S.M.I.D.S.Y. into the pit, when in fact it was Dead Metal.
 * In the Mayhem section, several robots listed as taking part do not actually appear in the event, including Bigger Brother, 3 Stegs to Heaven, Spawn Again, 101, Mega Morg, Firestorm 3, Suicidal Tendencies and Plunderbird 5. It is possible that these robots were due to take part in the event, but were forced to withdraw for various reasons (it is stated in the introduction that robots being scheduled to appear in one event may be forced to retire if they are damaged in an earlier battle, and hence some of the listings in the book may not match up with what is on TV). It should be noted that all the Mayhem fights featuring robots not mentioned in the Guide appear to have been filmed during or after Series 5.
 * Ming 3 is listed as coming from Kettering, rather than Somerset.
 * Killertron is listed under the name "Killertron 1". This was presumably to avoid confusion with the new robot the team had made to qualify for Series 5.
 * The guide makes a mention of an event called "The Peoples Challenge", where viewers post their dream fights online, which are then fought out in the arena. The event never took place.
 * Although a picture of the former is used, neither Anty B or Razzler are mentioned in the guide. Instead, a robot named Close Shave is listed in the stats. This robot never appeared in the competition.
 * The Revolutionist is listed as coming from Virginia, when it actually comes from Florida.
 * The listed speeds for some of the house robots are incorrect. For example, Sir Killalot is listed as being 8 mph, and Sergeant Bash only 5 mph, whereas it is actually the other way round.
 * Diotoir is listed as winning the Sportsmanship Award four times, when it had only won three times.
 * In the World Championship section, the word Championship on the title is misspelt as "Chamionship".
 * Spawn Again's notes section refers to it as its predecessor Spawn of Scutter.

Robot Wars: The Official Robot Guide

 * Razer's Series 3 performance is listed as "Pinball Game Champion" but its performance in the main competition is missing.
 * Bodyhammer's Series 2 performance isn't listed in Pussycat's previous performances, though its first wars performance is. Similarly, Detonator's performance isn't listed in Shadow of Napalm's previous performances as with Wheely Big Cheese and The Mule.
