Cassius Chrome

Cassius Chrome was the very last House Robot to be created, debuting in Series 7. He was designed by Robin Englebright to look like a heavyweight boxer, complete with a black eye. The robot was named after heavyweight boxer Muhammad Ali's real name Cassius Clay.

Build and armament
His main weapons were a large shovel situated underneath his black-eyed head and two "boxing" arms with interchangeable fists, weighing in at over 15kg each. He would either have sharp spikes or boxing glove-esque rams as his fists. The weapons on their own were generally ineffective, but Cassius Chrome was also able to use his speed and pushing power to great effect.

Notable Moments

 * Cassius Chrome's first broadcast appearance was in The Third World Championship qualifier between Mechaniac of Austria and Supernova of Sri Lanka. Cassius Chrome used his fists to punch out Mechaniac's batteries.
 * Cassius Chrome participated in the House Robot Rebellion of Series 7 with Growler and Mr Psycho. However, he drove straight into the pit, causing Jonathan Pearce to make jokes about his supposed 'intelligence'. Whilst stuck, Gravity came at him from behind and flipped him over. However, the pit was raised again when Gravity attacked Refbot, and he was the only House Robot still mobile at the end, after attacking Behemoth for a while.
 * In the Series 7 All-Stars, Cassius Chrome, along with Shunt, was in the arena for the eliminator between Panic Attack, Bigger Brother, Kat 3 and Firestorm 5. With Shunt out of contention early on, Cassius Chrome was ganged up on, and took damage. Panic Attack and Bigger Brother lifted him several times, but the most damage came from Kat 3, which knocked off Cassius Chrome's eye and hit the internal sections. Cassius Chrome had broken down by the end of the fight. Cassius was also attacked by Iron Awe and Hydra during the axe attack.
