Basenji

Basenji was a box shaped competitor armed with two hole saws and a front wedge from New York. It competed in Season 2 of Robot Wars: Extreme Warriors and Nickelodeon Robot Wars. It reached the second round of both the Season 2 US Championship and the Nickelodeon Annihilator before being eliminated. Team Chippermonkey also competed in Nickelodeon Robot Wars with loanerbots Rigby and Squirmin Vermin.

Season 2
In the first round, Basenji was against Night Stalker and Rosie the Riveter 2. Basenji was on the attack straight away against Night Stalker, although the attack made Basenji's saw fall off. The two box shaped robots kept rammed Night Stalker into a CPZ, where it was crumpled and bent by Sir Killalot. Eventually, the ramming by Basenji and Rosie The Riveter dislodged Night Stalker's battery packs, leaving it immobile and allowing Sir Killalot to dump it out of the arena. In Basenji's second round fight against Darkness, though, the two spent the match pushing each other around before both of Basenji's left hand wheels fell off, meaning it could be counted out by Refbot before Dead Metal cut into Basenji with its saw blade.

Nickelodeon
In the Annihilator special, Basenji looked strong in the opening round, using its power to slam both Bunny Attack and The Piecemaker into arena walls, and its attack on Techno Trousers left the foe immobilized, eliminating Techno Trousers. In the second round, Basenji looked aggressive once again, until it drove straight into the pit and out of the competition.
