## Description

Product Description Now you can have your own robot friend with the Meccano Micronoid Socket. This robot kit comes with 123 pieces for building a small robot toy. Once you've got the battery-powered robot built, turn it on and start playing - with push button programming Micronoid can walk, turn, and smash through obstacles. There are three play modes, and you can program the robot to do different actions. In 8-Ball mode, ask the Micronoid a yes or no question, and the robot will respond with an answer, you might hear "Oh yeah!" or "No, no, no." In Dance mode, you can play music near the Micronoid to make the robot dance. If you leave the robot in this mode for too long, it will start dancing and playing its own music. And then in Autonomous mode, Socket has a mind of its own. The robot basically does whatever it wants, including moving around, whistling, laughing, passing gas, and more. If you've got another Micronoid nearby, (each sold separately), the two may start interacting with each other and dancing to a synchronized routine. You can also build custom walking and turning sequences for the robot by pressing the record button on top of its head and then pushing the arrow buttons in the sequence you want. You can also program the robot by twisting its head left or right. Then press the play button to make the robot perform your programmed sequence. If you speak to the robot while recording, it will record your voice and repeat what you say in its robot voice when the play button is pressed. Building the robot will certainly be fun for kids who are into construction toys and robotics, but they'll also like being able to interact with the robot after it's built. This toy robot has a silly personality that kids will like bringing out through the play, and they can even add to the silly sounds and phrases with the record feature. Micronoids are responsive to music and your voice, making it easy to play with and program. Micronoids make a great gift for kids ages 8 and up, who are into STEM and an alternative to more expensive programmable robots. Brand Story By Meccano

Review: It was good for the kids to learn how to tighten bolts ... - Took about 2 hours to assemble for my 7 year old boy and 10 year old girl. Had to help in the beginning for around 30 minutes. Once they got he hang of it they didn't want me around to help. The white one was a bit harder then the green one. It was good for the kids to learn how to tighten bolts and follow directions. This is not a toy for kids that lack patience. If your kids are good at Lego instructions they should be okay at this. Just have to learn to use tools to assemble. Kids are loving the different functions. You make simple programs to make it do different things. We picked these up for during the lightning deals for around 19.99 and they are well worth it.
Review: Fun little robots - My 8 year old has been asking for a robot for two Christmas's and I'm so glad I found these. My sons 8 and 5 3/4 got these robots for Christmas this year and love them! They require some adult help on putting them together. My 8 year old put his "green switch" one together himself after getting help on the "red socket" one from my husband. I put the monkey looking one together with my five year old and there were some definite parts that little ones would need an adult for. The green one has taller legs so it seems to fall over more than the other two. They are having so much fun with these little robots!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Not easy to assemble
*by S***N on May 22, 2021*

This item is really awesome.... If you can get it together. I have no patience for things like this so my sister tried and she couldn't do it. I had my boyfriend put it together who did it in no time at all. If you're not good at putting things together, pass on this or get someone to do it for you. It's a shame it's so difficult to put together because it's really very neat.
