HEXBUGBattleBots Arena Pro, Remote Control Robot Toys for Kids with Over 100 Configurations, STEM Toys for Boys & Girls Ages 8 & Up, Batteries Included

When I purchased this I remember thinking “this has better be worth a hundred bucks” and it totally is! My 8 year old is obsessed with this show and absolutely loves this! So much fun! Everything seems very durable. I love that there are many parts to change out the weapon on the bots. Kind of made it like it was a whole new bot with each change.So glad I took a chance on this! Very pleased.

I bought this for my 11 year old Grandson, he absolutely loves it. He like to change up the weapons and battle. It is very easy to assemble and so far durable. It was a great birthday gift!

The media could not be loaded. The battlebots were fun but the drum didn't work well and the battery panel on the blue one was very loose. Overall I put 4 stara.

Awesome gift for our 8 YO boy. We bought him a single/smaller set of BB, but after seeing BB live in Vegas we absolutely had to get the arena. Comes with 2 BB and obstacles/hazards in the corners of the arena. He assembled it himself. Pairing the remotes to the bots take a little trial and error, especially when your kid is so excited and can't *not* try to "help." The pieces are a decent quality and not flimsy, but little friends may be too aggressive if they don't play nicely. It's been a few months and it's holding up nicely and haven't had to change any batteries.

Overall this could be a fun little gadget and my son was very excited about it however, two major flaws have caused him to lose interest. The controllers have major signal issues. From disconnecting to interfering with the signal of the other bot. They also will have intermittent issues which makes controlling the bots frustrating. The signal frequencies of the transmitters are too close and the antennas are too weak. The other issue is the way the parts connect. The magnets on the side part that cover the wheels are so weak they fall off when activating the bots weapons. The accessories have such stiff connectors we have to help our son to remove and change parts. It seems like the accessory tabs will break easily over time which will render them useless.

The robots stopped working within 3 days. The motors burned out rendering them useless. For toys that are supposed to be representing a show based around engineering and durability, these are worse than cheap. For approximately $100 dollars, this should have worked extremely well. It didnt. The controllers for the robots only worked some of the time. I have no idea how they came up with a price point of $100, the parts are cheap and unreliable. Don t waste your money.

It was the perfect gift for our 6 year old grandson. He loved it!

Great kit that my son loves. Fairly easy to put together and get going. Batteries needed to be replaced within an hour. New ones are still working well weeks later.
