Make the world's best worst robot!

Hebocon is a competition where you will create robots by taking apart old broken toys and putting them together again in weird and wonderful ways! Think Sid from Toy Story...

You have permission to rip heads off dolls, pull tails off dinosaurs, glue wheels to their feet... Whatever you want! The uglier the better. You don't need any skills to take part as you will learn how toys are put together by pulling them to pieces! We will provide the toys (or bring your own if you're happy to destroy them!) and all the tools you'll need to create your own mutant toy robots.
