Robot Wars: America Challenges Japan To MegaBot Showdown

These Super Robots Are Going To Go Head To Head And It's Going To Be Epic

Remember Robot Wars? Well, America has gone full scale with this crazy machine challenge.

In a summons to Japan, the showdown will feature two huge robots in a rust-hungry battle for victory.

Team America's 12,000 pound full scale bot is designed to make robot combat a very real sport...

And Japan's machine of misery can be equipped with twin BB gatling guns which chillingly can be activated by a smile.

The confrontation will be fierce and it's difficult to predict who will come out on top.

Japan's robot is named the Kuratas and is built by heavy industry firm Suidobashi, and the fighter can be armed with a LOHAS water launcher and even a glove-controlled hand.

The four legged bot has an advanced control and targeting system and uses facial recognition technology.

Japan, the ball is in your court.
