- "It's emerged from the underwater depths to fight the land robots."
- — Jonathan Pearce introduces W70
Whirlpool 70 (also called W70) was a Swedish robot that entered The Second World Championship in the first series of Robot Wars Extreme. It was a circular shaped robot similar to The Revolutionist. It was built from a swimming pool cleaning device, with a chassis built around it. It lost its only battle, after it was set upon by Sir Killalot.
Robot History
Extreme 1
W70 started the match very slowly as it tried to to get its spinning body up to speed. Drillzilla rammed W70, but was pushed away by Firestorm 3. NEAT Machine used its battering ram to stop W70 from escaping, but W70 then drove very slowly away and into Sir Killalot's grasp. Meanwhile NEAT Machine had been flipped over by Firestorm 3, Firestorm 3 then proceeded to flip W70 onto its side. NEAT Machine was counted out and so was W70 shortly after. W70 was then thrown by the floor flipper. W70 then got in Firestorm and Drillzilla's way as they continued fighting. The battle ended and W70 was eliminated.
