In Rayman Redemption
Toybot are invincible enemies introduced in Rayman Redemption, appearing exclusively in Playtopia, and are an homage to the robots from the Game Boy Advance adaptation of Rayman Raving Rabbids, who appeared in the Child world which inspired many aspects of Playtopia. They are inactive until they spot Rayman or are hit by him, in which case they'll open their eyes and walk forward until they meet an obstruction or Rayman punches them from the back, in which case they will turn back and continue moving. They fall when encountering a platform's ledge.
They are meant to serve as mobile obstacles, as they don't actively target Rayman and cannot be harmed, being pushed backwards instead when Rayman uses his fist to attack the robots. This can be used to the player's advantage to move a toybot far away enough from a path.
In Rayman ReDesigner
Toybots return as enemies from Rayman Redemption, being absolutely identical to their previous appearance. They can be placed from the editor, located in the second page of the enemies tab.
As before, toybots will move back when they encounter a solid tile, but they fall from the level and all platforms' edges if there are no obstructions at their ledge, thus making them one of the few enemies that do not require a special non-solid collision next to a platform to fall.
Under the effects of the invincibility power-up, Rayman will push the toybots on contact instead of being damaged by them. Toybots won't change directions while being pushed this way.
Trivia
- Toybots were a bit different in Rayman Redemption's early production, appearing hunched and having black eyes.[1]
- Toybots also share some similarities with robots from Rayman Origins and Rayman Legends, namely their pincer hands or their near-invincibility.
