Samurai robots

"The Samurai served its purpose"

- DeVoe's assistant

Samurai robots were combat robots designed to look like traditional samurai warriors. They were presumably created by Clifford DeVoe or his assistant. One of such robots, nicknamed Samuroid by Cisco Ramon tried to goad out the Flash into open, as part of DeVoe's plan to bring Barry Allen out of the Speed Force.

Overview
DeVoe and his assistant have created at least two units of the Samurai model, one of which was destroyed by the Flash, with its remains brought to S.T.A.R. Labs, the other was put on a podium by DeVoe's assistant in their hideout.

The Samurai model is made out of both heavily armored material, giving it the appearance of samurai armor, and a more cloth-like substance covering the joints of the robot, making it look like a clothed person wearing pieces of armor. The models possess great destructive strength and have considerable mastery of swordsmanship. The units are equipped with jet packs and wings that allow them to properly adjust their flight.

History
A unit of the Samurai model, nicknamed Samuroid fought Team Flash throughout Central City and was eventually destroyed and picked up by Barry Allen. DeVoe's assistant repaired another unit of this model at De Voe's hideout and placed it on a stand. However, DeVoe commented that the Samurai they sent out has served his purpose already, luring out the Flash into open.
