Product Description

Manufacturer's Description
Robo bugs is an exciting way to create mini robots with all the electronics and circuits you need to build 3 different bugs.

Simply build the circuits and swap from one bug to another.

The 'guide' robot detects objects, the 'wake me' robot lurks in darkness and attacks at dawn! The 'remote control' robot can be operated with any TV remote control, just think of the fun you could have with that!

Robobugs are great fun, unique and educational.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well-received Christmas present, 6 Jan 2007
By L. Wood "L A Wood" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this for my nephew (who is nearly 8) for Christmas and no sooner had he unwrapped it than he had it out of the box and was underway with the construction.

It kept him quiet for quite some time and he was really pleased when he had made his first robot and was getting it to move by the light of a torch.

A good gift that was a change from lego and one he can keep revisiting to make the different robots.

1.0 out of 5 stars agree - dont waste your money, 16 Nov 2007
By cocoloco (London Uk) - See all my reviews
Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars Educational:1.0 out of 5 stars 
had the same problem as previous reviewer - damaged circuit - so the bug just moved slowly and buzzed.Retailer would not replace (not amazon - birthday gift).Even if working you can only make one bug at a time (they use the one basic circuit)- my daughter was really disappointed and cried. Very fiddly (and we buy/use a lot of science kits)Totally overpriced! (although amazon is £10 cheaper for this than the Science Museum)a bad toy

1.0 out of 5 stars robo bugs, 2 Jan 2007
By Mrs. M. L. Lipka - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Don't bother to purchase. Spent about half an hour assembling the bug because the parts are so small. One of the circuits was broken when we tried to use for the first time and the quality of materials left alot to be desired. Can't imagine any child being able to play with this product without it breaking. You may as well throw your money straight in the bin.
