First I want to thank to Mikey G for the first contest. If you find this thread geeky beyond belief, its because I stand on the shoulders of giants.
In light of today's exciting announcement that Mars was once slightly less hostile to life than it is now, I thought it would be fun to take one o' them multi-million dollar Mars rovers and throw it into the battlebot arena with the robotic "Rover" known as Aibo. Rules are the same as before... give me the best reason for your choice of winner, or be the first up against the wall when our robotic overlords take over the planet.
Since (for reasons I cannot fathom) neither robot is bristling with weaponry, you are free to suggest any modifications necessary for your favored contestant to achieve victory. Yep. Cheat all you want to as long as you're funny.
Here are the contestants:
All the way from the red planet comes the Field Geologist of Genocide... the Purveyor of Planetary Pain... "Opportunity"!
And from the Land of the Rising Sun comes the Terrier of Terror... the Lapdog of Laceration... "Aibo model ERS-7"!
Let the carnage commence!

I was gonna send a robot back in time, but I got high.
