A 1993 post-apocalyptic sci-fi film taking place in what used to be the southwestern United States of America. Drake is a Giant Mecha pilot, whose duties involve taking tourists for rides in his giant-robot-scorpion mecha becase, hey, why not? His mech takes fire from members of another faction called the Centros, and he is ordered to engage, despite the fact that he is carrying civilians.When he isn't piloting his robot, Drake has a habit of wandering the desert landscape, where he comes across the wreckage of the Centros he fought earlier. He discovers that they are using weapons created by the Eastern Alliance. Of course, the Eastern Alliance are allies with our heroes, and in fact a delegation led by Wa-lee is in talks to purchase scaled down versions of their Spider Tank Giant Mecha, so when Drake presses the issue, he is grounded. Shortly after, the Eastern Alliance delegation hijacks the GiantMecha.It is up to our heroes to find some way to rescue the hostages taken during the Gundamjacking and stop Wa-Lee from destroying their headquarters.No relation to the TV series that came out later.For the Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode, click HERE. | |

Dolled-Up Installment | |
| Robot Wars (1993) / int_89499ccf | comment |
Dolled-Up Installment: The DVD release calls it Robot Jox 2. It doesn't take place in the same universe as Robot Jox but has a similar look due to both being handled by the same effects company. | |

Ridiculous Future Sequelisation | |
| Robot Wars (1993) / int_98995a37 | comment |
Ridiculous Future Sequelisation: There was a background gag where a group of people are walking through an abandoned city, and you can see a theatre marquee with Puppet Master 54. | |

Break Out the Museum Piece: The last of the Humongous Mecha (a Spider Tank) is used to ferry tourists across an American wasteland. Then, a Yellow Peril villain does a Grand Theft Prototype and starts using its to lay waste to everything around him. He also holds the tourists hostage. The pilot of the mech goes looking for a weapon, left over from an old war, inside a pyramid and ends up finding an intact humanoid mech. He uses it to fight the spider-mech and free the hostages. | |

China Takes Over the World | |
| Robot Wars (1993) / int_fd41610f | comment |
China Takes Over the World: Implied. It's never stated what country the "Eastern Alliance" is made up of, but the characters who are shown to be from there have Chinese-sounding names. | |
