I bought these for Christmas for my boyfriend. We grew up in the 70's and played with those old school Rock'em Sock'em Robots. These are WAY cooler because they are remote controlled. You win by knocking your opponents head up, just like the 70's version. My boyfriend LOVED them, and my daughters did too, although they were more interested in making the robots do dance moves rather than fight each other. lol The only thing I'm not crazy about is that they are kinda loud, but all remote controlled toys have that same sound.
