Forum:Robot Wars mistakes

After seeing some of Drop Zone's edits, I've noticed that throughout Robot Wars there have been numerous mistakes, whether it's spelling or image problems or something else entirely at least one has appeared in every series. I was tempted to make an article similar to that of the Ed, Edd N Eddy wiki where they made list mistakes that have occurred through each series (they use to have an article but it isn't there anymore, which is a shame but you can still see lists of mistakes on each episode article).

If you have spotted any mistakes please state what they are and even add a photo just in case. Diotoir the  son  of  nemesis  (talk) 19:18, March 26, 2016 (UTC)
 * Added some. I feel like there should be a section for just general mistakes, such as picture errors in the booths and general information being incorrect. --WolfwingandSlaveLeia (talk) 19:33, March 26, 2016 (UTC)
 * Aww Thanks man, appreciate it. I agree that there should be some sort of section dedicated for mistakes. I'm gonna create a category for images that feature mistakes. Diotoir  the  son  of  nemesis  (talk) 20:34, March 26, 2016 (UTC)
 * Added some more. I feel like there is so many mistakes that we could we do separate pages for each war. --WolfwingandSlaveLeia (talk) 09:35, March 27, 2016 (UTC) Edit: who was editing whilst I was editing?

I'm so proud that so many of you have helped on this page, thank you! Diotoir the  son  of  nemesis  (talk) 19:12, March 28, 2016 (UTC)

First Wars

 * Psychosprout was misspelled as Pyschosprout
 * REALI-T and Bodyhammer's placings 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.

Second Wars

 * Jonathan Pearce and even Philippa claimed that Killertron came runners up when infact it lost in the Heat final of the First Wars.
 * Mortis was stated to have scored 100 points in Pinball, when in actuality it scored 75 points.

Third Wars

 * Robocow's statistics board featured a spelling error; the Notes section read "Has a wagging wooden tale", when tail would be the correct spelling.
 * In a few Heats in the background on the TV monitors it reveals clips of Hypno-Disc and Chaos 2 entering the arena together.(hard to see in YouTube quality videos but on an old VHS of mine it clearly shows this in the Mortis heat)
 * Robert Bettington of Team Cold Fusion had his named misspelled as "Robert Bittington" in the statistics card.
 * Prizephita's team members' names on its stat boardwere mistakenly shown as those from Rattus Rattus.

Fourth Wars

 * Just before the Heat B Final took place, Julia Reed erroneously addressed Pussycat's driver, David Gribble, as "Robert".
 * Destruct-A-Bubble's name is misspelled on the Sumo.
 * 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 playoff 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.
 * 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.
 * Despite being seeded 11th, Wild Thing was never announced as a seed.
 * Kane Aston of the Behemoth team had his name misspelled in the statistics card 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.
 * 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 incorrectly said "It's all happening in front of us in the Northern Annihilator."

Fifth Wars

 * Juggernot 2's statistics board claimed it was armed with an axe, however, only Juggernot 2's predecessor featured an axe weapon.
 * Juggernot's official image is sideways on its stat board.
 * Behind the Bulldog Breed team an image of Juggernot is shown instead of Bulldog Breed. This happens more than once.
 * Shredder's official image is terribly cropped on its stat board.
 * Debatable. Strangely, Thermidor II'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 II was introduced as Tiberus II.
 * After speaking to the 13 Black team, Craig Charles mistakenly called them Black 13.
 * When the "Most Promising Newcomer" Award nominations were listed, Crushtacean was misspelt Crushtacen

Sixth Wars

 * During the photo session for the competitors, almost all the official photos are "stained" yellowy due to lighting.
 * For some strange reason Jonathan Pearce kept stating that Cyrax was purple when it was clearly blue.
 * 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.
 * Terror-Bull was twice labelled as a new robot in Heat G, whilst its previous appearance in Series 4 was completely ignored.
 * An editing error in the first battle of Heat G showed Dead Metal in two different CPZs.
 * Due to the robots entering the arena being shown out of order, robots are seen entering the arena then seconds later they're still in the door way, this happens more than once and is noticable in other series.
 * Razer's stat board incorrectly referred the vertical crusher as a spike.

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.
 * 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'.
 * When ever it 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.
 * Jonathan Pearce incorrectly states in the Series 7 All Stars special that Pussycat reached 5 heat finals - this fact being incorrect not only for the robot itself, but also for Team Cold Fusion 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.
 * Andrew Marchant from Tornado mistakenly called Raging Knightmare Raging Reality.
 * Jonathan Pearce incorrectly said Atomic reached the Heat Final in Series 3 and lost to Hypno-Disc in Series 4 when it actually reached the Heat Final in Series 4 and lost to 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.
 * During its first round heat battle, Pussycat was stated to have been with Robot Wars since the very first day - this fact only being incorrect for the robot itself, but also for Team Cold Fusion in general, as none of the original members stated after the first 4 wars and Pussycat did not enter the first 2 wars, rather it was Bodyhammer.
 * 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.

Extreme 1

 * The reuse of clips showing robots entering the arena shows robots entering the arena then seconds later they're still in the entry gates or robots changing positions between entering and the battle starting, this happens more than once and is noticable in other series, such as Series 5.
 * 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 round 2 and the heat final respectively.
 * During the International Inferno, the four robots (Panic Attack, Manta, Flensburger Power and Maximill) were stated as being champions. In reality, Panic Attack and Manta had made only the semi-finals, whilst Flensburger Power and Maximill wouldn't get out of the heats (Flensburger wouldn't event enter).
 * During the first Tag Team Terror Semi-Final, when Cerberus and Suicidal Tendencies were dueling, Jonathan Pearce incorrectly said "Steel Avenger comes in with that 26 tones of crushability".
 * King B Powerworks was referred to as King B3.
 * The stats for Sir Killalot in the Challenge Belt battle between Tornado and Wild Thing were shown as those from the American series.
 * Flensburger Power was pronounced as Flensburg Power.
 * 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.
 * 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 by Razer in the First World Championship, as well as being knocked out in the first round of the Northern Annihilator in Series 4.
 * During the World Chanmpionship, whilst introducing the robots, Jonathan Pearce kept stating that events that would happen later in the episode happend in the First World Championship; He claimed that Chaos 2 drove down the pit in round 1, when it reached round 2 in the First World Championship, he claimed Diotoir fell in round 1, when it reached the Semi-Finals, and he claimed that Firestorm and Tornado fell in Round 1, when neither of them entered and Tornado hadn't appeared on Robot Wars at that point.

Extreme 2

 * Pulverizer was shown behind the Irish flag, instead of the Dutch flag after losing to Razer.
 * Graham stated during the All-Stars that Firestorm had never fought Bigger Brother, when it was the second meeting between the two robots.
 * 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 said Bigger Brother had beaten good machines like Hypno-Disc and Razer. It actually beat Hypno-Disc but lost to Razer in the Series 5 Grand Final.
 * Sir Chromalot was mispronounced as Sir Chompalot.
 * Firestorm IV was shown with the United Kingdom flag instead of an English flag.
