I have always found robots cool, and adorable. I may want to work with robots someday, but I need to get better at math. Two robots that I love are Wall-E and Cozmo. So adorable and cool!

Lego haves a line called Mindstorms that you can create any robot you desire. For people don't have a programming background, they do have software you can drag and drop stuff on the screen to program your robot without writing any code. The current version of Mindstorm kits can be controlled by modern Smartphones.

I just notice on the box as shown below, you can program your robot with a tablet. This is my first time learning about this.

I first learned about Mindstorms at a toy event I went to 7 years ago. Lego Mindstorms been around since 98 and now they are at generation 3.

No I haven't. Is it good?

It is - it's a UK gameshow where people build fighting machines to take part in a competition to find out which Robot will be crowned the Robot Wars Champion.

Here's the first episode from the 2016 series:

America have their own series called Battlebots, which is very similar and you may have heard of.

Ah I see. I have heard of people battling robots. Just never heard of either of those shows. I'll check one of them out though.

I've seen such shows in the past. Fascinating actually. The different design approaches and how some designs can hold up while others can't. Yeah, great entertainment.
 
I always wanted Maximillian from Disney's movie The Black Hole to be my personal henchman and deal with the bullies that nobody else would or could take care of at school.
