Ribbot Hexbug Battlebot

My son is a huge battlebot fan, does his own hexbug battlebot videos on youtube so this is our interpretation of the Ribbot Battlebot based on the hexbug R/C platform of the NEW witch doctor, the one with the white skeleton self-righter piece on top. There is another model on here based on the OLD witch doctor, but we had a spare new one so I started from scratch to make our own.

I may do some more tweaking, but the top piece could use a little magnet to stay on more, ours is tight, but the big hits can shake it loose which for us is part of fighting and fun.The top does not attach in any way, the little clip piece that hold the skeleton armor was broken on our spare hexbug toy so that was not an option for us to re-use.

the back piece is not original to the real battlebot, but we needed some pieces to be detachable to "end" the fight once they all fall off so we made a back piece with spikes

front forks are little too big, but work very well, weapon is quite powerful as well
