Agent Orange

"We built it out of polyproplane, which is an industrial plastic, basically because its really light, which allows us to get lots of big nasty weapons in."

- Phil Duncanson

Agent Orange was a box shaped robot that entered Series 3 of Robot Wars. It was coloured orange as its name suggests, and was named after the toxic poison used in chemical warfare, most famously in the Vietnam War. The plastic shell allowed for heavy weapons, including a pincer claw on its front and a very fast 180 degrees pickaxe that swung from the robot's rear to the pincers at the front. The team upgraded Agent Orange for Series 4, but failed to qualify.

Series 3
Agent Orange's first battle of Series 3 was relatively easy as Max Damage did not get under way. Agent Orange then sunk its pickaxe in and dragged Max Damage across the arena floor, before calmly pushing it into the pit. Agent Orange's next battle was against Blade, where it attempted to grab hold of Blade with its pincers, but this failed. Agent Orange then pursued Blade around the arena until Blade was flipped onto its side by an arena spike, Matilda then righted Blade and it pushed Agent Orange into Matilda's CPZ, but Agent Orange escaped, but then broke down, thus sending it out of the competition.
