Behemoth with team

Team Make Robotics and their robot Behemoth were staples of Robot Wars, appearing in every single UK version of the show bar the first series

This article ranks the longest running single robots to compete on the Robot Wars.

  • Robots with less than six total appearances and less than four main series (i.e. domestic championships) are excluded from the list for the sake of brevity. For example, Dominator 2 appears in six series but only three domestic championships, its final appearances being a side-tournament entry and appearances in Robot Wars Extreme.
  • Robots whose totals contain international versions of the show are highlighted in grey.

Robots are listed as individual entrants, rather than teams. Teams are listed in their own table further down the page.
