Description

A fighting robot on spider legs

Exo-Force tells of pilots who battle in giant combat robots, and the Battle Arachnoid is one of them. The name gives away its shape: a machine that stands on several legs like a spider. The set came out in 2008 with 131 pieces and a single minifigure to act as pilot. It makes a friendly entry point into the theme, because the model goes together quickly yet still looks like a proper piece of military hardware.

Black with loud accents

Black is the base colour, with orange and yellow adding strong signals on top. Trans-neon green completes the palette and suggests glowing energy cores or sensors. The mix feels futuristic and is rare in other themes, so anyone who likes strong contrast gets plenty to look at. The parts list on this page shows which element appears in which colour, in case you want to recreate the same tones for robots of your own.

Movement from specialist parts

Of the 131 pieces, 45 are different shapes, and many of those are joints, clips and connectors. These are the elements that make the legs move, and they are especially valuable for later rebuilds. You can use them in mechs, cranes or poseable animal figures. If you want to know exactly how many of each are included, the list has the answer, giving the count and colour for every individual element in the set.

Play it, display it, rebuild it

The Arachnoid is small enough for a shelf and sturdy enough for play. If you take it apart after a while, the “What can I build?” tool on Bricoria can compare your own bricks with other models, including combinations with further sets. That keeps the set useful even when the robot itself does not stay assembled for good, and its specialist parts find a new job in your next build, perhaps as the legs of a larger machine.
