It’s on.
Late last month, Megabots -- creator of a six ton giant robot called MegaBot Mark II, challenged Suidobashi Heavy Industry — creator of a 4.5 ton giant robot called Kuratas — to a giant robot duel.
"You have a giant robot, we have a giant robot," MegaBots said in a video challenge posted to YouTube. "You know what needs to happen."
On Monday, Suidobashi Heavy Industry CEO Kogoro Kurata accepted that challenge, heralding what could be the greatest battle since Russell Crowe's Maximus faced off Joaquin Phoenix's Commodus in Gladiator.
"Yeah, I'll fight," Kurata said in a video response to MegaBot's challenge. "... I want to punch them to scrap and knock them down."
The American competitor, the Megabot Mark II, is made by MegaBots Inc.
