I think life just got a little better. I was surfing Engadget.com and behold there it was: BattleBots is back. I was the biggest fan when it was on earlier. I used to dream of building my own and figuring out what the best design would be and how to best chew the other guy up. But, alas, the time not to mention the price of such a hobby was beyond my reach.
Well, This fall I'll at least have the thrill of watching robots chew each other up again. There is supposed to be more "behind the scenes" with the robots in this encarnation of the show.
