The BattleBots Arena MAX is priced at $119.99.Īnother set was later released with Bite Force included in place of Tombstone. The standard Arena MAX set includes two remote control HEXBUG toys - a unique Tombstone resembling its 2020 season look with a blue bar and black armor panels, and the orange and black build-your-own robot based on the tank chassis. These feature plastic screws which spin upwards like the real arena hazard, activated by a small gray button between each set. One of the biggest features of the Arena MAX is the functional sets of screws which are housed at the top of the BattleBox.

Unlike the previous HEXBUG BattleBox, this toy does not feature plastic sections resembling Lexan panels. The original BattleBox sat inside the Arena MAX BattleBox. However, other BattleBox hazards such as the killsaws remain purely decorative.

The spiked panels from the real BattleBox are now molded into the walls rather than being two-dimensional, and the pulverizers had been redesigned to resemble their updated shape, powered by buttons rather than levers behind the arena. The arena is based on the World Championship V look of the iconic BattleBox, including the BattleBots logo from 2020 onward. Much like the previous BattleBox release from HEXBUG in 2016, the arena floor is now made up of interlocking panels to create a playing surface advertised as '50% larger than ever before', measuring 30' x 30'. The BattleBots Arena MAX was released in 2021 as part of HEXBUG's line of BattleBots toys.
