Product Description It's time to rumble with Me-Fisto the Rumble Robot. Me-Fisto is decked out like a prizefighter ready to take the ring. Rumble Robots are a combination card game and remote-control toy. Each robot comes with cards that swipe through the Robot's back to determine its strength and abilities. By playing the card game with his friends your child can win and trade cards. Robots do battle to try and drain each other's powers by tipping over, hitting a terminate switch or using a laser attack. Robots use a repertoire of remote control punches, moves and lasers to win. Imported. 6-1/2Lx6-1/4Wx6H". .com Get ready to rumble! Rumble Robots are like BattleBots meet e-pets meet Pokémon. Rumble Robots is a collectible card game that combines card play with a battling electronic robot counterpart. First, play the card game to win cards from your opponent, then swipe the won cards through your robot to give him more power. Robots battle in an attempt to kill each other's power supply, by either tipping them over, hitting their antenna-like terminate switch, or sapping power via laser attack. The winning bot gets to collect "treasure points"--registering their victories in memory. Just out of the box, the robot is sluggish, none too nimble, and he doesn't have "punch power" or "laser power." But that is easily remedied because he comes with five game cards, some of which can be used to give him more speed, agility, and battle power. Rumble Bot can travel forward or backwards, deliver a battery of punches, shout out various cries of battle, and shoot power-sapping "laser beams"--all via remote control. Of course if you want to battle, you'll have to get another bot, and to play a really good game, you'll have to get extra cards as well. Every bot comes with a poster depicting all the available power cards. The remote requires three "AAA" batteries (not included). The robot requires four "AA" batteries (not included) and three LR button cell batteries (included). --M. Sullivan

Too Complicated to Be Fun
Well, you get what you pay for, and at this price don't expect much. That way you'll be satisfied. These suckers are hard to get up and running and after finally figuring out how they work, they aren't half as fun as you expected. Slow moving, unresponsive controls, and bores children of all ages.

Not worth it!
This toy, although appears to be well made, just does not work as claimed. They don't move their arms. Needs constant reprogramming. Bought this and another of same kind. I have not bothered to open the other.In summary, don't bother with this toy! If you want this toy to just move back and forth, it probably might serve the purpose!

Very Good Toy!
I think these toys are very good. My favorite one is Me-Fisto, I also have Lobjaw. The object of the game is to destroy the opponents robot by: a). Flipping them over b). Hitting their terminate switch (on the back of the robot, the little tail thing.) by punching. or c). hitting them with your infared laser. A few cons about this toy are : a. They use up a LOT of batteries (4AA's+ 3AAA's+ 2 button cells for memory backup (Already included)) b. You must collect a lot of cards to get a good robot. c. Because they use infared controllers etc. they do not work well in sunlight and certain robots' signals will overlap (consult instruction manual for more info). This will make a good but pricey birthday present.

A waste of time and money
I thought the kids would have fun with these fighting robots. They just did not work well enough to be fun and hold their attention. Probably used for less than an hour total!

12 YEAR OLD ME-FISTO OWNER (this thing rules)
I bought this me-fisto at [a retail store]. I thought that me-fisto wasnt going to be too good of a robot because there was alot of me-fistos on the shelf when all the others were gone. So I bought it because I really didnt want to wait for another shipment and now I think its the best robot ever! Its fast, powerful, got an awesome punch, and just a lot of fun to play with. It swipes cards fine and easily. I rated it 5 stars for fun because its a hoot! battleing or just playing around its alot of fun. I rated it for duribality because when I play with it I climb alot of stuff and make it fall off and theres not a scratch on it. THINGS THINGS RULE! BUY ME-FISTO, YOULL BE REALLY HAPPY WITH IT!

The best Robot
Hey if your looking for a Rumble Robot this is the one to get. MeFisto is the best. He's fast and powerful. If you upgrade his power punch to 5 you won't lose. His laser is good to. He's my favorite robot. They things are really cool and really fun to play with and they are extra durable. I accidentally dropped it down a half flight of stairs and it didn't break. If your looking for a Rumble Robot get MeFisto. He's GREAT!!!!!

What would people do with out Rumble Robots?
Me-Fisto is the best!He is the prize fighting champ.I got him at (a retail store) and I just so happy I thought I would never get Me-Fisto(or any of the Rumble Robots).When I got home I would not stop playing with him because he is so fun.I showed My Friend and he wanted to get one.He got Boltman and his brother got Lobjaw.I never got to fight Lobjaw but Boltman always beats me but thats half the fun finding out who can beat you or not.I can't wait to get his armor too!I hope you get(and like)Me-Fisto.
