Expect a whirling dervish when playing with HEXBUG Warriors Battling Robots! They twirl, spin, shimmy and shake in a seemingly haphazard way.
And who doesn’t love watching a couple of goofballs in motion?
Alright, alright. I’ll take this seriously. Bring on the BATTLE!
Two Modes of Play: Training Mode (for wussies) and Battle Mode (for rock stars).
Training Mode isn’t really for wussies, ya know. It just means all “injuries” to the warriors toy won’t decrease its health. It’ll just keep on takin’ the hits and giving ’em back!
In Battle Mode, they’ll fight to the death! Hits will decrease health until eventually one of the warriors toys wins, and the other needs to be revived. (A simple push of the on button will revive its health for a rematch.)
They battle it out on this snap-together Battle Arena.
Incidentally, as you collect more HEXBUG robots (available individually and in sets), you can add more arena pieces and turn it into a stadium like this:
The micro robotic creatures are high tech fun in tiny packages. Powered by battery-operated motors, they move by nano vibration technology and each of the warriors toys has different weapons and armor which can be removed, mixed and matched. Plus the kinetic weapons really move!
Who knew so much fun could be hiding inside such a small box?

Jennifer says
How fun!! We have a ton of HEX bugs but rarely play with them anymore. I think adding some new toys into the mix would help us have fun with the older bugs again
Sarah Hirsch says
I think my son would love this -anything with battles certainly interests him. i like the stadium for the robots!
Alexis AKA MOM says
Pardon me if this is a dup comment my brain is fried and I could have sworn I commented on Friday but I’m not sure … lol.
Cole would love this, I’m sure Caden would too! I will have to see about picking these up for Christmas gifts! Anything that has a battle is a happy thing for them 🙂
Cindy Bowling says
This will be a great gift for my nephew. Looks like a lot of fun.
Kelly Stilwell says
I was thinking my daughter would love this, and when I told her, she ran and retrieved one! I remember buying it for her years ago. They are even cooler now!

These toys are a great toy for girls and boys. I would like to get a Hex bug for my nephew for Christmas. He would have a blast playing with this toy for hours. I do not think that it is very expensive!
Kathy says
My son would love these!!!!
Jennifer H says
these look cool!!
Kiersten @ Oh My Veggies says
I’m so out of touch–I’ve never seen these before! So it’s like a high tech version of Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em robots? Interesting…
Tammy S says
Hexbugs are awesome! We have several of them and they can entertain for hours because they all are a little different. They are really worth the money.
Donna C. says
The first time I heard of these was at Thanksgiving. My nephew was showing me his HexBugs. When my sister and I went Black Friday shopping I knew what I was getting my nephew for Christmas. I like that the sets can connect to each other. The Bugs are also sturdy. My nephew was having his fall off the table and they keep going. Hours of entertainment for a reasonable price.
Jeffrey says
My boys got some of these for their birthdays and really like them. They play with these and Bey Blades quite often.

My son loves Hexbugs!! He has a whole container of the smaller ones, but I bet he would really enjoy these.
clarissa says
my children have a couple hexbugs and enjoy using them
