- "... in Max Damage we're "Warring With Dinosaurs"!"
- — Jonathan Pearce introduces Max Damage, making a pun on the TV series Walking with Dinosaurs.
Max Damage was a green box shaped robot built over 100 hours with a Triceratops' head at the front, it competed in Series 3 of Robot Wars. It was armed with a chainsaw positioned just underneath the dinosaur's head, with two counter-rotating circular saw blades at the back. It was armoured in 6mm thick fibreglass and powered by car radiator motors. The robot took 100 days to build, and used lots of parts salvaged from dockland scrapyards.
In its only battle in the main competition against Agent Orange, it failed to move and was therefore immediately immobilised, due to the team not having inserted its removable link (therefore isolating the battery circuit) before the battle.
Robot History
Series 3
Agent Orange attacks the lifeless Max Damage
In Max Damage's first battle against Agent Orange, it failed to start due to it not being turned on before the battle. Having not moved at all, it was then axed a few times by Agent Orange, who then proceeded to gradually push it towards the pit, at first having some trouble due to its rounded bodywork sliding off its claw.
- "Max Damage? Are you sure, a name like that? That's the most pathetic display we've seen on Robot Wars! Shambolic!"
- — Jonathan Pearce on Max Damage's poor performance.
Eventually, within a minute of the battle starting, Agent Orange was able to push Max Damage head-first into the pit, eliminating it from the competition. Also, once Max Damage was in the pit, Dead Metal closed in and attacked it, cutting into its bodywork from the edge of the pit.
