Last week I asked in a story about Robosapien Videos if anybody knows how to let Robosapiens fight against each other.
Marc Robinson (thanks!) sent us links to PDFs from Wowwee that explain how to control two Robosapiens indepently so they can fight against each other. The solution is rather low tech but kind of fun:
1 - Take a standard toilet-roll tube and cut it down the middle.
2 – Squeeze it onto Robosapien’s head as shown in the photo.
The robot will now only be controllable from behind.
I am going to host a Robosapien fight this week to try it out with some friends. I will report on I4U how that went.

There is also another PDF that explains how to put make a Robosapien guard the door.

The standard edition Robosapien sells usually between $89 and $99. Check the cheapest online store offers. Amazon.com still sells the Robosapien for $99.

I ordered mine from ComputerGeeks for $89.99, because the have a low-cost (albeit slow) international shipping option.
