Robot Fighter Records

Awesome shop! Tastefully selected records both new and used. Fair prices and a knowledgable staff, a true Janesville jewel. I'll be visiting whenever I'm in town, you should too!

Super great little spot! Incredible selection and very fair prices.

Absolutely love Robot Fighter Records! It’s such a gift to have a real record store back in Janesville, and it’s quickly become a local gem for music lovers. Buckley is an absolute standout—his passion for music and deep knowledge of all things vinyl truly set this place apart. Whether you're a seasoned collector or just getting into records, he's always ready to help with great recommendations and honest insights. His audiophile expertise is a rare find and an incredible asset to the entire music community in the area. Can’t recommend this place enough—support local and stop in!

Tucked away in the back is a little haven for audiophiles. There's an eclectic range of music, most of it beautiful vintage vinyl, but with a good selection of new records, as well. The owner is great, greeting customers with knowledge of what he has on hand and what he can look out for. Supply comes and goes quickly, which is a testament to many satisfied customers, including myself.

Store is inside the Army Navy Store. Great selection of used vinyl. Decent selection of used CDs. They also had some cassettes and even a few 8-tracks and memorabilia type items. Their selection of Army Navy stuff was also decent. Overall, their prices on media is good, probably lower than the stores in nearby Rockford and Madison. I was given a fair to low offer on the CDs I was selling and they were only interested at all in 15 of the 40 I brought in. I did feel that their selection of what they called vintage clothing was considerably overpriced, but it did have some trendy looking items in it too. Of course I say this after shopping all of Janesville's thrift stores the previous week and seeing similar stuff, so I knew that better and rarer finds exist in this town for less than half the price. The price of Their Army Navy stuff was reasonably priced though and on par with the Army Navy store in Rockford. Overall it was a great shopping experience and the person behind the counter was a pleasure to interact with. I honestly would have given this place 5 stars had it not been for the rack of vintage clothing throwing me off.

Great selections, fair pricing, awesome people.

This is a local small business with rare finds at reasonable prices. This is Janesville's one and only spot for new and used vinyl, cassette tapes, 8 tracks, and more retro gear. It's all carefully curated by an owner who's passionate about his craft.
