Watch USA's MegaBot Mark II Prepare For Next Year's Giant Robot Battle.


"For everyone who dreamt of sitting in a giant fighting robot as a kid, it is exactly as awesome as expected". 

Back in July, the USA company MegaBots Inc. challenged the Japanese company Suidobashi Heavy Industry to a giant robot duel: Megabot's Mark II robot vs. Suidobashi's Kurata. And Suidobashi founder Kogoro Kurata accepted the challenge, asking if the duel can be fought as a physical melee rather than with the MegaBot Mark II's paintball guns.

Now, the American company is preparing for next's year epic event. Quartz visited them to give us a closer look at the Mark II giant robot. They also did an interview with one of the founders of Megabots, Matt Oehrlein.

As much as I like seeing their efforts to prepare the Mark II against Japan's giant robot, I think that the Kuratas will easily win the duel. If you want the Mark II to win, you can help Megabots get some upgrades for their giant robot in the Kickstarter page
