1st Timer Robotics Advice!

Hi there everyone!
I am hoping that people on this forum would be able to offer advice from
their own experience for a fist time buyer (me + other new readers)
I am pretty sure that I will be buying a Bioloid kit, as this suits my as-yet
uncertain direction in robotics.
I would still like to hear from those who have bought OTHER bots and why!
I am curious about remote control, using sensors, grippers and all this sort
of stuff as expansion to the basic unit.
So anyway, PLEASE first state your bot/s model and maker
Good points/bad points/modifications/single pic of your Bot
-<AND>-
Please let me know what you think on these subjects:
-Is it better buying ADD-ONS with 1st purchase or later?
-New or Used?
-home made cb vs pre-fab pcb
-hacks for the various controller boards
-aftermarket parts/add ons/weapons?
-any other advice you can give from your experience with bots!
Thanks ahead for your input and involvement in this Topic!

Easy answer to your query mate.
Just read through all the forums on all the robots and you have your answers on every subject concerning them.
Cheers!
