Robot statistics correct as of its most recent appearance on the show

All Torque was the first of four robots that were entered by Team Torque. All Torque was a flat box robot with a scoop on the front. All Torque competed in Series 2 and 3, reaching the Heat Final of the former, where it lost to King Buxton and Thing 2 respectively. The team also competed in Series 4 with Small Torque, Extreme Series 1 with Fighting Torque, and Series 5 with Hippobotamus and Bot Out Of Hell. None of these robots did notably well. In the First World Championship, All Torque had a small Robin toy as its mascot called Hamish. However Hamish was set on fire in All Torque's defeat to Razer.

[edit] Series 2

Series 2 All Torque

It was set on fire in the gauntlet after being trapped by the house robots, but progressed regardless. It was the only robot with enough power to push Matilda to the end in the joust, and won its semi-final after pushing Prometheus into the pit. However, King Buxton edged it close to the pit in the final, before All Torque was finished by Sir Killalot.

[edit] Series 3

Returning to the wars, All Torque easily defeated Crippler, whose axe had no effect on All Torque, and All Torque merely shoved it around the arena and into the pit. A quick and exciting battle against Thing 2 followed. Both robots smashed into each other, with All Torque pushing the larger robot around, preventing it from using its weapon. The robots then clashed in the centre of the arena, with Thing 2 finally winning the pushing match and pushing All Torque into Shunt, whose axe destroyed the receiver and caused All Torque to be eliminated.
