Robotic Combat Products


Our initial DVDs are now available online, and at stores around the US and Canada. If you can't find them at your favorite store, let us know and we'll send a few Super-heavyweights around to convince them of the error of their ways!

All Metal Munching Maniacs DVDs are 4:3 NTSC format, with no region coding. We offer free Media Mail shipping inside the US, and we ship anywhere outside the US (excluding weird places like the North & South poles, the International Space Station, etc.) at about our cost (and give you discounts on shipping based on order size!)

Gourmet Damage Packaging



“Engineered for Excitement... Designed to Destroy...”


Our special Gourmet Damage introductory disc features some of the most exciting matches of the 2003 robot combat season, in weight classes from 1lb Antweights through the 340lb Super-heavyweights. We've priced it low so you've got no excuse not to buy it! Run time: 97min.



Robot Club & Grille Packaging



“I love the smell of Titanium in the morning!”


Our first event disc, Robot Club & Grille Mayhem contains 38 fights featuring robots from 1lb to 120lbs, as well as 28 interviews. Go behind the scenes and see what robot combat is all about. Run time: 133min.



Robot Assault Packaging



“Tell us about what's left of your robot...”


It's North vs. South as robots from around the east coast meet at Robot Assault, competing for coveted slots in the Nationals, and praying it won't rain! This disc contains 48 fights with robots from 1lb Ants through 220lb Heavyweights, plus pit interviews and more. Run time: 130min.



2003 Nationals Packaging



“Two robots enter. One robot leaves... as a bunch of mangled parts!”


The 2003 season ends with a bang -- make that a lot of bangs --- at the 2003 Nationals. We're talking spinner hits that erupt into 15-foot chrysanthemums of titanium sparks, flips that send robots flying almost to the ceiling, and impacts that send both robots tumbling the full width of the arena.

And those were the boring fights!

Disc contains 56 fights in weight classes from 12lb Hobbyweights right through the 340lb Super-heavyweights, and no interviews, because we couldn't bear to cut out any fights to make room for them! Run time: 127min.
