Edge Hog is a competitor that competes in the Roaming Robots events today, the first ever version was wedge-shaped and invertable and tried to but didn't qualify for Robot Wars Series 4 in 2000. In 2002, Edge Hog was rebuilt to what it is today, a round robot armed with a vicious axe. It lost 2 UK Championships of Robot Wars but did make its Heat Final in the New Blood Tournament where it was beaten by one of the earlier incarnations of Thor. Edge Hog has been competing in UK Championships and Winter Tours but has never gone beyond the qualifiers or the first round. In 2006, Team Wrexham Wreckers purchased Edge Hog off the team and changed the sharp axe-head to a blunter one to avoid causing too much damage to the other robots.

  • Edge Hog (also spelled Edgehog) was competitor robot that fought in Series 6 and 7 of Robot Wars, as well as the New Blood Championship in the second series of Robot Wars Extreme. It lost in the first round in both its main series appearances, but reached the Heat Final in the New Blood Championship, losing to Thor. Edge Hog's name is a pun on Hedgehog, along with the names of Kronic the Wedgehog and Wedgehog. It could have also been named after the robot's creator, Stephen Egerton, who claimed that its weakness was his own driving.
