R-109 appears in TimeSplitters 2 as the next version in the R-100 series appearing in every game. TimeSplitters 2 also contains R107, or "Robert One-Oh-Seven", a fighter in the Machine Wars within the R-100 flanks but not a machine. R-109 appears in the Robot Factory mission along side Gretel Mark II from the Gretel series.

R-109 appears in Night Shift, Spoils of War, Demolition Derby, R-109 Beta and Starship Whoopers; missions set in Robot Factory, Scrapyard and Ice Station. Although not appearing in the Ice Station bot set, he does in the Robot Factory, Scrapyard, Ufopia, Site and Sidekicks bot sets. R-109 Beta is a notable challenge for R-109 as it features many prototype R-109s in a battle test. R-109 also features in But Where Do The Batteries Go?, enemy to R One-Oh-Seven and ally to the forces of the Dark Machinist Child, contradictory to his canon.

[edit] Story

[edit] 2243, Machine Wars battleground

R-109 was a fighter in the Machine Wars. The R-100 series, a series of fighting robots created by Jacob Crow of UltraNet, were wrecked during the havoc of the war; leaving few to survive. R-109 did, but even Crow fell.

[edit] 2315, Dark Machinist Child's Robot Factory

Main article: Robot Factory (Story)

UltraNet still lived even after the massacre of their robots and the downfall of their leader. The Machine Wars left massive impediments to all involved and over the hundred years, there was silence between all factions, except one. The Dark Machinist Child had secretly built a power node network to produce a robot army to exact his own revenge. UltraNet discovered this and sent surviving robots of the Machine demise, Gretel Mark II and R-109 to maintain the lack of machine conflict.

The robots battled through the factory and the latest and best in fine robotic production; even despite them being built from Machine War scraps. After destroying the power nodes and finding the machinist, they put death to his machine and him inside.
