259

259 was an entrant in Series 6. It was a one-man team, which was very rare in Robot Wars. 259 featured a potentially lethal spinning weapon with capability of huge destruction. However, despite the huge amount of aggressiveness shown during its battle with Wild Thing, it broke down and was eliminated on a very controversial judges decision. Adam Clark, the captain, had previously entered Series 1 with a lightweight Vector of Armageddon, Series 2 and 3 with Corporal Punishment, and Series 5 with Wowot. None of these robots had much success; none of them ever won a battle with another competing robot. 259 won the award for best design in Series 6.

Vector of Armageddon
Vector of Armageddon was based on the American Wedge of Doom, which has won the American featherweight title for the last four years. It was not as successful, however, and got stuck on a ramp in the Gauntlet.

Corporal Punishment
The entrant for Series 2 and 3 was called Corporal Punishment. It was a silver box shaper, featuring a lifting scoop. In series 2, it lost in the semi-final of its heat to Disruptor. In Series 3, it lost in the first round to Ally Gator on a judges' decision.

Wowot
The entrant to Series 5, Wowot was an amazingly designed robot. It was based of a crane, and was a unique and amazing looking robot. It was defeated by Lambsy in the first round. It was nominated for the award for Best Design, but missed out to Razer.
