    A gift for my grandson. When he opened it, I thought too hard for him to put together but he did it very easily. He has played with it non stop until he had to replace the battery. Great gift!

    I gave this to my grandson for Christmas. He loves the show and was so excited when he saw the toy. We played for a little while but one of the remotes won't work well. If changing the batteries doesn't fix it we will exchange it and try again.

    My son received this as a gift from us. He played with it about an hour and one of the remotes went crazy. It will not reconnect to the robot. We have contacted customer service and they are suppose to be sending us a replacement.

    Bought as a Christmas gift for my godson. He is 8 and really likes it. One of the bots broke after using it for a day, so that is why I gave it 4 stars. It's pretty expensive, too

    What else can you say my kids always keep me on my toes and tell me what’s is cool and new and this is the latest trend I guess. My wife had fun when she used the robot to fight within a little wrestling style arena and it was cool. Until one got really banged up and we lost a small piece already lol. Fun times just too many small pieces to break loll

    This is a birthday present for my grandson who, since age 5, has been a Battle Bots fan. He intends to begin building a full size contender he says when he is 12. In the meantime he wanted to begin practicing with this miniature set.

    I was concerned that these minibots would not be as similar to the actual size ones but they are quick and maneuver well. They have kept my 8 y/o attention far longer than I would have expected for this reason. Controls are very tiny though.

    My eight-year old son loves watching Battle Bots on TV and was SO excited to see they make actual Battle Bot toys. I can't wait to give him this for Christmas. I have read great reviews.

    The first shipment was damaged but Sherril in customer service got me one overnighted and my grandson's birthday gift was saved. The toy was hours of fun the two days he was here and he continues to enjoy it. I enjoyed playing with it too. We will now purchase new characters!

    Fun, but limited agility

    Very fun, but be advised these are not typical r/c type driving machines. They only have two drive wheels, the others just roll without power. That leads to a little harder time maneuvering, but the arena is small so this isn't a huge deal. They are easy to assemble and sync together, They will slow dramatically when the batteries get weak. Tombstone required a bit a shaving on the back panels to help keep them on better-they were too easy to knock-off before.

    Fun, but on the expensive side for the limited functionality. Battle bot fans will love the simulation.

    The battlebots work great but the board for the arena has a big crease down the middle so it don't work at all. The battlebots wont go they get caught in the crease making it unusable. My grandsons love the battlebots but were so disappointed they can't use the stadium floor.

    My two boys love watching Battlebots together, so when they saw this item, they started saving. Best Buy had the best price on this item, so they were quickly able to afford it. The arena and bots are true to the show and they have a great time battling each other. I recommend using these bots in the arena only as they can easily pick up stray hairs from the floor, affecting their performance.
