For those that may be waiting to buy Spybotics at your local store, I saw all 4 sets today at my local Target (Dayton, OH). Also, the local Meijer stores have the "Technic" RC Race Buggy 8475. Andy (22 years ago, 9-Aug-02, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

It looks like the Spybotic designers strongly focused on the one thing which was appearantly overlooked in the RCX: situational (and peer) awareness. This introduces new concepts like the Here and There and a world of missions and gameplay. Let's (...) (22 years ago, 5-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics)

Here are a couple issues regarding my Gigamesh Spybot. I presume it's the same for all of them. 1. The manas controller controller works with the Spybot. That's great.

(...) John, I think you may be confused about the IR detectors. There are only two and they are facing forwards. The 2 white parts facing forward and the white part facing backwards are low power IR emitters.... Cheers, Ralph (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.robotics.spybotics, lugnet.robotics)
