Great, trustworthy experience
Great deals, easy checkout with lots of payment options, shipped very quickly, and everything was packed well and looked exactly as it was described! I didn't end up needing any intervention with my shipping experience but appreciate the option to cover lost packages for a minimal fee, especially as we get into the late and lost package holiday season. I'll definitely be getting more of my baby gear from Kidsy.

Kidsy Customer Service Review
Kidsy had a great selection of deeply discounted baby gates. Unfortunately, there was a piece missing when I received my package. I didn't realize it until after the 14 day return/exchange window. But I reached out, and they were willing to send me the piece anyway at no extra charge. I really appreciated the customer service.
Fast and efficient
Got my item fast and it was in excellent shape.
Bouncer worked fine
Bouncer worked fine. Was a little worried when it showed up but it was perfectly fine!

Quick response
Ordered a gate prior to this one, UPS lost it on route. I reached out to Kidsy via email and they secured a refund from UPS. Was hesitant to order again, but I couldn't find the gate at a more reasonable price. 2nd order arrived with no issues. Gate is sturdy and the dog (Husky) hasn't gotten through it (he's an escape artist). Quick delivery from start to finish.
Very happy
Really happy with my order. Shipped fast and clean.

Q&A

4 high confidence · 7 web-sourced
What are the assembled product dimensions (ring/arena footprint and assembled robot height) and the packaged weight?
This Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots ring (arena) measures 25 cm × 25 cm (10" × 10") and each assembled robot is about 16.5 cm (6.5") tall. We see packaged/ship weight varies by retailer — Entertainment Earth lists package weight 1.90 lb (package dims 11"×16"×4") while Target's estimated ship weight is ~2.87 lb (shipping dims ~3.5"×15.75"×10.5"); expect the packaged weight to be roughly 1.9–2.9 lb depending on the seller's packaging. [1][2][3]

Does the game require batteries for the sound effects or any other functions? If so, what type and are batteries included?
No — this Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots does not require batteries for the sounds or any functions. Mattel's product support lists “No batteries required,” and major retailers list the product as having no battery use. [1][2]
Sources
Mattel consumer support product detail (Battery Info: No batteries required) and retailer listings (Target).
Is there an on/off switch or volume control for the realistic sound effects (or a way to mute them)?
We do not include an on/off or volume control — this Rock ’Em Sock ’Em Robots set produces the “realistic” noise mechanically when a robot’s head pops up, not from a battery‑powered speaker, so there’s no built‑in way to mute it. If you need quieter play, the usual workaround is to play in a different room or dampen the sound (for example, place a thin cloth under the arena). [1][2][3]
Sources
Mattel product page (product_description) and Mattel instruction sheet CCX97 (assembly/controls); retailer listing indicating no battery power (Best Buy).
What materials are the robots and ring made from (plastic type) and are there any small or detachable parts that pose choking hazards for children under 6?
We don’t publish the exact resin (e.g., ABS, PP) on the Mattel product page, but the ring and robots are molded plastic and the game uses a mechanical head‑release so a robot’s head will pop off during play. [1][2] Because those head pieces (and any small loose components) can detach, they are a potential choking hazard for children under 6 — the game is labeled Ages 6+ and retailers/listings note small‑parts warnings. [1][3]

- [3]Retail listing — Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots (notes small parts/choking hazard warning) (turn2search2)

How much assembly is required right out of the box? Are tools needed and roughly how long does setup take?
We ship this with simple, one-time snap-together assembly — no tools required. Slide the two controllers into the ring, snap the robot platforms/holders into the controller slots, seat each robot in its groove, insert the ring poles, and apply the small labels. Most adults can complete setup in about 5–10 minutes. [1][2]

Mattel instruction sheet / assembly steps (game assembly)
How durable is the head‑release 'knockout' mechanism with repeated play, and are replacement heads or internal parts available from Mattel or third‑party sellers?
This Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots uses a mechanical head‑release built into the plastic robots and ring and is made for repeated play, but the pop‑off head is a mechanical/plastic part that can become more or less sensitive or loosen with very heavy or aggressive use (some players report one robot being more “trigger‑happy”). [1][5] Mattel’s parts portal currently shows replacement parts are not available for this product; you can sometimes find loose robots or reproduction/3D‑printed pieces from third‑party sellers on marketplaces like eBay or Etsy, but fit and durability will vary and those are not officially supported by Mattel.

Are replacement robots or parts for this set compatible with older/vintage Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots or other Mattel versions?
We can’t promise parts from this Rock ’Em Sock ’Em Robots (Mattel product CCX97) will fit older or vintage versions — Mattel lists replacement parts by specific product numbers, so parts are generally model-specific. For vintage or non‑Mattel editions you’ll often find aftermarket or 3D‑printed replacements (eBay, Bonanza, Etsy) but those usually require checking fit or minor modification. [1] [2] [3]

Do customer reviews report that items arrive in good condition and that the seller ships quickly and as described?
Yes — reviewers for this Mattel Rock 'Em Sock 'Em Robots are overwhelmingly positive and repeatedly mention fast shipping and that orders arrived as described (keywords in reviews include “fast,” “shipping,” “arrived,” and “described”). We also note the item is brand new (box may show minor damage but the product itself is unaffected), which aligns with reviewers' comments about condition.
