The guys at MegaBots - a Boston-based startup devoted to the art of robot combat - challenged, completely out of the blue, their counterpart the Suidobashi Heavy Industry of Japan to a robot duel by way of YouTube:

"The MegaBots team plans to show up to the fight with its Mark II robot, a 15-foot-tall (4.6 meters), manually piloted bot that can walk around and shoot supersized paintballs. Suidobashi's bot, named Kuratas, is a tad smaller at 13 feet (4 meters) tall, but it packs a more lethal punch with its onboard arsenal of rapid-fire BB guns."

It only took days for the guys at Suidobashi Heavy Industry to make a response and accept the challenge:

lol one of the comments

Germany will see this and join the race, Russia will too. Canada will also try to build one but then apologize for it not being environmentally friendly and then drop out only to apologize again for dropping out of something they were never invited to.

At first, I read MegaBots as Medabots and got confused for a second :P
