Mechatars
Combining the best of robotics, online gaming and remote controlled toys, iloveRobots launches Mechatars, their newest toy line designed for kids ages six and up. Connecting the physical and online worlds through the company’s cloud-based platform, the Mechatars line introduces a unique and interactive play experience called Blended Reality. With even the youngest consumers demanding more high-tech sophistication in their toys, Mechatars are poised to become one of the most sought after gifts of the holiday season.
Mechatars leverage innovative technologies to create a truly seamless online-offline experience. This cross-dimensional play allows kids to participate in epic battles from their living room, or from a computer. In the backstory, Mechaverse is under attack from a dangerous enemy known as The Swarm, and the Mechatars are fighting for their freedom and to bring peace back to their world. Kids have the critical responsibility of training their Mechatars for this fight. The more a child plays with and trains their robot – both on and offline – the more weapons, skills and abilities their Mechatar earns.
This fall, three Mechatar Tribes are landing in stores: Alpha, Wrexx and Kodar – each with its own personality and strengths in battle. Mechatars are available now at major retailers nationwide for $39.99.
Straight out-of-box, Mechatars offer a unique RC experience. The included remote control will send the Mechatar speeding around the room. When other Mechatars are present, the robots will sense each other and launch into epic battles. When no other Mechatars are nearby, kids can guide the Mechatar on reconnaissance missions to earn additional points and skills.
Mechatars Power Packs
Groundbreaker of Et (Geos) (Buster effect)- This Power Pack is infused with what many believe to be the purest source of the powerful element Geos ever discovered. This unfiltered power gives the Grounbreaker of Et its awesome strength. It is feared that the rich source of pure Geos will soon run dry, making this already rare weapon a true asset for any Mechatar trainer looking to increase his standing within the Initaitve. The is pure power. This is the Groundbreaker of Et.
Zephyin’s Howler (Aeros) (Buster effect)- This truly unique weapon was invented and first used by the first Chieftan of the Alpha tribes during the struggles against the Ancient Threat. Some historians even credit the astounding force of Zephyin’s Holwer with ending that war, as it was unlike any weapon anyone had ever seen. In fact, the Mechatar tribes outlawed use of Zephyin’s Howler for centuries, fearing that the damage it created was simply too great. But today, the threat from the Swarm is simply too great and so its use is once again permitted on the battlefield. The newly-released Power Pack version provides a massive punch and it is one of the most popular weapons in the Mechaverse.
