Got a robot? Enter it.
Weaponized Plastic is open to anyone, first-time builders included, and it's free. Individuals and teams are both welcome, with one robot per person or team. About 20 robots make the bracket. Once it's full, new entries go on a first-come waitlist, and waitlisted robots are still invited to come and demo if there's arena time.
