- "And there's Coffin-Bot, looking like a coffee table."
- — Stefan Frank
Coffin-Bot was a loanerbot which competed in the first season of Robot Wars: Extreme Warriors. It competed in the US Championship under Team Sylvan Lake Robot Warriors (builders of Joker) as a replacement for the withdrawn Skullmania, but did not progress beyond its initial Heat.
Design[]
Side view of Coffin-Bot
As its name suggested, Coffin-Bot was shaped like a coffin, made of wood and was armed with a horizontal spinning disc, making it resemble Fluffy, and the Series 6 and 7 version of British competitor Disc-O-Inferno. The robot was two-wheel driven, but its armour proved vulnerable.

Season 1[]
Coffin-Bot entered the US Championship as a reserve entry. However, after Skullmania withdrew due to technical issues, it was called into action and faced Bot-Ugly, Sobek, The Revolutionist, TriceraBot and Unibite.

Coffin-Bot is grabbed by Sgt. Bash
Coffin-Bot clashed with Unibite early in the battle, before pushing The Revolutionist. The Revolutionist retaliated by pushing Coffin-Bot across the arena and into a CPZ, where it struggled with its manoeuvrability. Sgt. Bash gripped Coffin-Bot, however Coffin-Bot hung on until the end of the fight for the Judges' decision.
- "It's a good thing it's a coffin already, because we're getting ready for a real burial."
