Hi Everyone! It's been an awesome ride. We all really appreciate everyone's support. A few things: Please do not feel bad for us/me. This was an incredible journey and I think I speak for the entire team when I say I am VERY happy it happened. Instead, let's all celebrate how far we actually got. And who knows, maybe the robot sells for enough to try again? :)

I hope this isn't the End, but just a turn around in the history. P.S.: just remember to avoid Loans.

Damn... Im so sorry. I am too young to have any experience with debt, but making a huge robotics company from loans was probably a struggle. One thing I can see is that you are all extremely skilled, and had a goal: to make mech fighting a real thing. Hell yeah, that would be awesome, but in the end, this happened. I hope you succeed at whatever endeavors you persue, and maybe, one day, consider picking up the subject again. Either way, good luck, and the best of wishes. Could you leave the channel up, though? I may want to see your battle with Japan again.

It would be cool if the hacksmith KZbin channel were to buy this. They are working on the Power Loader from the movie Aliens. It would probably speed up the building process. (Also I am really sorry that Battle Bots didn't work out, but hopefully you can pay off the debt, and who knows maybe someday try this again). If you were to make another robot someday though (which I have no IDEA how engineering a robot works or any engineering for that matter) I would probably try to make something a little smaller, and faster. But you are an inspiration to people who have always wanted to see bots fight each other.

I swear I felt a tear in the corner of my eye forming when you announced the challenge between USA and Japan. Megabots will forever be close to my heart as the giant fighting robot that brought about a new revolution. I don't think this is the end for fighting mechas. I believe this is only the beginning. You've ignited a fire inside of so many minds that I bet you a new mecha is ready to be born again in the not far off future.

The problem with your comparison is that two megabots fighting like battlebots would result in millions of dollars of repairs. Also it would endager the pilots. So the only solution is to have damage markers or fake armor and at least the direct contact carefully planned to avoid injury and real damage. This would make it imho not as interesting as battlebots, but it might still be really cool.

Cur3d you do make a valid point, but I still think that MegaBots is far more exciting and interesting than battle bots. Don’t get me wrong, battle bots are amazing 😉, but they just can’t compare from an Engineering perspective.

You guys got so close. I'll be watching for the return. Even outside of arena based combat for entertainment, there has to be industrial application for this kind of design...

This was awesome. Thank you for putting art and amazing engineering back into the world. Looking forward to seeing your next incarnation. Just because you didn't make a profit on it doesn't mean you didn't do something that 99% of people couldn't do. You're an inspiration.

There's no demand bc people realized that the reality of giant robot fights is that it's undewhelming. The bots are too expensive to risk destorying and the tech just isnt there yet. It sucks bc I was really excited to see how this developed in the decades to come :(

Damn. That fight aired on my birthday! It was the best birthday present I've ever gotten! You guys made this guy's dreams come true, and I'm sure a lot of others as well... Screw the haters! As you said, you've gotten closer than any other company in history to making fighting giant mechs a reality! I'm just sorry to see it come to this conclusion, and I hope that whoever buys it can keep you on board to rebuild.

super shame it didn't work out for you. Thanks for trying and creating the entertainment you did in doing so though. I hope someone else is able to pick up where you left off towards making this commercially viable. When that does happen tough, and I am sure it will, you will be remembered as one of the original pioneers of the whole concept for sure. Thank you very much for your contribution! You will be missed, but certainly not forgotten.

Sorry it didn’t work out this time. I’ve been following MegaBots since your first announcement. I too was hoping this would be the next big thing. Glad you got to give it a shot at least, and hopefully you’ll get another chance. Take care, and I look forward to seeing whatever comes next.

Thank you for putting your blood sweat and tears (and 5 years) into this and for sharing the ride with us. Good luck with the auction.

Loved seeing the advancements you guys made, the hype, and even the fight. I think you guys did a tremendous job and it's nothing short of purely amazing that you were able to hang in there as long as you did, Matt. I really look forward to seeing what you all manage to do with the vision and drive you have. I just hope the financial backlash from all of this does not end up crippling you or anyone else. Good luck! P. S. Think of *constructive* applications vice *destructive* ones, i.e. logistics loaders or building construction.

I not usally write comments but..................damn , guys , i knew about iron glory back in thenth or eleventh grade of high school............im on my fourth year of collegue now, and knowing someone out there was making a gigant robot give me hope that i too , someday ,could make something amazing like that if i word hard enough . This try may have ended , but i know you will eventually go back to this and will make it big ...........its just need some time. And even if not , you already give amazing inspiration to people all over the world (myself , a peruvian ,included) , lots of good vibes for everyone in Megabots and hope you dont let you dreams die...............because you inspire me to follow mine.

Don't be down on yourself. You brought together groups of engineers, programmers, and dreamers to build something so unique. You inspired millions to go into STEM. It was artistic works like this that inspired me to go into computer programming and become the programmer that I am, today.

It may not have been the most spectacular robot fight in history but is sure was the first one. I am sorry that things took that turn and financial problems kicked in. Personally I was hyped to see the fight and I was not disappointed. I really hope that you get a better chance with your next endeavor. One thing I have to say to you. Don't listen to haters. You have made 2 awesome robots and the day of the duel against Kuratas history was made!!! Things will eventually turn for the better. Be safe.

Hey, guys, you are awesome, Eagle Prime is awesome! You inspire me (I'm sure - not only me) as awesome engineers, solving great challenges at mechanics, software.
