The Tamiya 71120 Insect Battle Set is a compact robotics kit aimed at anyone keen on practical STEM and model building. The box contains two insect models, a Rhinoceros Beetle and a Stag Beetle, formed from durable plastic in vivid colours so they stand out during battles.
Both beetles are driven by motors fitted into pre-assembled gearboxes and are controlled via two-channel remotes that offer forward/reverse and left/right steering. The controllers include a self-neutral feature that makes handling easier for newcomers, and a screwdriver is provided to complete the build.
Beyond entertainment, the set shows practical principles of gearing and basic electronics, making it a useful tool for learning. The packaging can be repurposed as a battle arena straight away, and the supplied sticker sheet lets builders personalise each beetle for unique match-ups.
