After much searching, I finally located a RoboBoa more by chance than by diligent effort. A friend of mine, who was aware of my obsession with all things Wow Wee, asked me one day out of the blue, what is a RoboBoa? I immediately interrogated him as to why he was inquiring, and it was finally revealed that he had seen one in a store. Lucky for me.

The first thing I noticed when I finally found a RoboBoa, was how big it is. Its significantly larger than I was expecting, at least twice as large as I was expecting, and is definitely more Boa than snake. You can get a feel for how big it is in this photo of it next to my RoboQuad.

Getting it out of the box was much easier than I expected, possibly the easiest one yet. Which makes a certain amount of sense, since the are no limbs that have to be held in place.
