Rockem Sockem Robots are a great toy that lets children vent their frustrations via plastic figurines. Ian Austin has not let his childhood dream of becoming a real life Rockem Sockem Robots figurine die.
He and a friend dressed up as the two plastic pugilists for Halloween. I am guessing they just gave them the grand prize. Even if they weren't the best, who is going to deny a fighting robot?
