I still don't get it to this day. Why were they removed from the shop? Its almost as if low league play isnt already boring and filled with all of the same bots? They even went through the effort to give the boa an entire new model before vaulting it?
War robots wiki says they're temporarily removed for balance reasons. Balance reasons? Since when did pix care about balance? And since when were these three unbalanced?

TBH, I can't figure out any reason to have done so, unless it was some move to remove viable Silver Mechs to force early spending on things like the Bolt or the AQ... but it definitely wasn't for balance.

Less clutter in store? Imagine a paying customer wants to by a tier 4 robot. They would need to scroll over all these trashy bots just to get to the robot they want. If I was a paying customer I would be annoyed by this too.

May take:
The Boa and Golem were taken out a time when both could offer considerable firepower and survivability and be upgraded, even to lvl 12 mk2, on the cheap. I don’t think Pix wanted the player base to be able to do that. It’s the same reason much of the silver bots don’t have full module capability.
I ran high-level Boas and Golems through the dash-bot and inquisitor era. Boas were great fun.
Pix might as well add them back to the store now. Both wouldn’t compete in the current meta as well as they could when they were take pin out. Then again, maybe Pix doesn’t want players reaping the silver rewards from destroying well-leveled Boas and Golems.

They told us that they would be great to make old bots competitive and fun again to promote variety in gameplay.... The modules were released and "old" bots were lucky if they got 1 module slot.......... |

My guess is there were tons of complaints from new players using the bots and facing dash bots and newer and pix decided to remove the two Ag bots if they where the problem rather than balance the game content. Patton, Vityaz, Griffin, Leo and Natasha are next.

I have a vague memory that Pix said it’s because they didn’t like the loadouts. Boa and Golem have never had those hard points repeated but Vityaz, which stayed, has several more bots with that same configuration. Schutze idk, it’s just kinda weird. But if my memory is correct I don’t believe anything Pix says anyways.

My Schutze is level 12 MK2 and even when using long/mid range weapons it's a egg with legs, so it doesn't make sense to remove it when it's an easy kill.

Mayhapa they possess unique mechanics that are exploitable by hackers.
Since you’d then have to risk your account to exploit them, thE pool of exploitable accounts for this trick would ever be diminishing
Just wild guess . No basis in prior experience
But if I’m not mistaken these are the scripted trainer bots right? May be more to it than you’d expect
