The Tamiya 71120 Insect Battle Set pairs two insect-style models, a Rhinoceros Beetle and a Stag Beetle, made from tough plastic and finished in bold colours for clear visibility during matches. The kit is targeted at model builders and those looking to experiment with basic robotics concepts.
Movement is handled by two motors housed in pre-assembled gearboxes and commanded by two-channel remotes that provide forward/reverse and left/right control. The remotes include a self-neutral setting to make manoeuvring easier, and a screwdriver is supplied to help with construction.
Useful as an educational resource, the set explains simple mechanical and electronic principles through building and play. The outer box serves as an instant fighting ring, and a colourful sticker set is included so users can mark their beetles and customise the arena.
