- "4-wheel driven machine, a double acting morning star axe, they tell me, a flipper, but very slow at 7mph and light, too, at just 88kgs."

Guzunderbot was a double wedge shaped, four-wheel driven robot that competed in Series 5 of Robot Wars. It was armed with a small flipper arm and a morning star style axe. The team called themselves the "Family at War". It was slow and lightweight which cost it in its only battle against the experienced General Carnage, in a heat where it was the only newcomer.
"Guzunder" is British slang for "chamber pot."
Robot History
Series 5
Guzunderbot's only battle, against General Carnage 2, was over very quickly as both robots dodged each other for a few moments, but then General Carnage flipped Guzunderbot. The flip did not topple Guzunderbot, but the second flip rolled it over and onto its back. Guzunderbot attempted to self-right, but couldn't move more than a few centimetres.

As Refbot moved forward, General Carnage finished it off, flipping it out of the arena.
- "...No chance! You're over and out Mr. Ellis! The signal, green for go for General Carnage!"
