Well if you like robots & programming is there any way around something like this or do you have that already?

I dunno, LEGO Mindstorms is pretty cool

I used it a couple of years ago in a university assignment. We didn't use the drag-and-drop thing -- there's free software to do it in a C-like language.

We had robots fighting each other in sumo rings, and trying to navigate mazes and pick up bottles.
