Super complex
The directions take a good amount of thought power and figuring out. Kids definitely need an adult to help. Tons of small parts, so have a good blade ready to get the pieces out and a good open space to work. This is a great activity, but make sure to set aside a heafty amount of time to do it with your kids. The robot is super cute.

Cool but time consuming
Fun work together project with the little ones but certainly time consuming. My lil guy lost interest after 10 minutes but I was determined to finish. He played with it for 2 seconds and it fell apart lol

Adult supervision required
Pretty complex, even for a Lego genius.

Great to NOT have to buy batteries!
I like that I ordered it from Amazon and it was delivered right to my front door on time. My 9 years old autistic grandson has enjoyed it tremendously and carries pieces of it with. It keeps him busy.

Awesomeness.
One of the coolest STEM toy kit that I have ever seen. Really think through and smart.

"Bots" do not move with wind power.
My 11 year old put together two of the items, and the hand-cranked fan did not move the "bots." Nor did a small electric fan. Then the hand cranked fan's crank broke. If you want them for figurines, that is all they do. They do not move with wind power.
