Watch giant gladiator robot

The battle of the megabots just got a little more mega. What the world needs now is gladiator robots, so make room for Monkey King. For a couple of years, the geek world has been salivating over a potential battle to the death between a couple of metal monsters -- California-based MegaBots' Mark III and a Japanese contender named Kuratas, from Suidobashi Heavy Industries. But wouldn't you know it? Just as the mean, not-so-lean fighting machines are gearing up for their last-bot-standing melee in August (date, time and location still to be determined), there's a new bot in town.
