For the Extreme Warriors Semi-Finalist, see The Brute.
- "A real brute, or a pussycat?"
- — Jonathan Pearce
Broot was a large box shaped robot that entered Series 2 of Robot Wars. It was invertible, had a welded anglid chassis ran on wheelchair motors and had a spring loaded rod as its weapon called an "Unce" by the team, named after the nickname for a schoolyard punch. However it didn't get to use this as it was eliminated in the Gauntlet stage of its heat.
Robot History
Series 2
Broot drove into the brick wall in the Gauntlet, but it didn't seem to have the power to break through. Matilda then pushed Broot into one of the side fences and used its chainsaw to cut through Broot's wooden wheels.
- "Those wheels are made of plywood and... oh! Matilda smells wood!"
- — Jonathan Pearce just as Matilda uses her chainsaw on Broot's wheels
Broot was therefore immobilised. It hadn't travelled far enough in the Gauntlet, so it was eliminated from the competition.
