Los Gringos Loco was a lightweight competitor that fought exclusively in the the 1995 US Robot Wars competition, losing early in the competition. Los Gringos Loco succeeded Pain Mower from the 1994 competition.
Design[]
Los Gringos Loco was virtually unchanged from its previous identity, Pain Mower, as it was a black round circular shaped robot armed with a lawnmower blade that span overhead with four wheels. The robot was slightly modified in having a golden frilly skirt as well as Mexican inspired artwork all around the robot.
Etymology[]
The name is Mexican for "The Crazies".

Kitty Puff Puff goes around Los Gringos Loco, wrapping it up with tape
In the first round of the lightweight championship, Los Gringos Loco faced Kitty Puff Puff. Los Gringos Loco sped its weapon up to speed and moved towards the corner as Kitty Puff Puff slowly crept forwards towards the spinner. Steadily, Kitty Puff Puff slammed into Los Gringos Loco and pushed it further towards the corner and stopping the lawnmower blade completely as it appeared Los Gringos Loco had lost all mobility. Kitty Puff Puss backed into Los Gringos loco and began to deploy its tape snagging device, wrapping around Los Gringos Loco by going in circles around the immobile machine, wrapping it extensively with tape. With Los Gringos Loco having been immobilised from the start, Kitty Puff Puff continued to go around its opponent, occasionally pushing it before the match came to an end[2].
