Thames & Kosmos Code+Control Dinosaur Robot REX Robotics & Engineering STEM Kit | Build & Program a Robotic T. Rex | Includes Sensor, Motor, Lights & Sounds | No App Required | Ages 8+

After putting together a few toys and robots for my kids, I’m always nervous about putting one together.But this one had great instructions and it took me about 30 minutes total. I put it together without my kid because they’re quite young but I think a kid 7 years or older could handle it.It requires 5 AA batteries.It has so many modes, doesn’t require you to code to make it run, but it also has a coding mode where you can instruct it to do a set of tasks.My kids were also delighted that it had a “fart” button, lol.Overall, a great quality robot and brings plenty of fun and learning about coding.

Kids really enjoyed this. Takes couple hour to assemble as adult so prepare for that. Instructions are easy to follow. Control has lots of options to explore. The finished product does not move very quickly but can be maneuvered around, under, through and in reverse too. The kids enjoy the noises (soft farting sound) to add. Recommend as fun gift. Good value for the cost and interest.

The media could not be loaded. I bought this for my 6 year old son. He and I had fun building it together. He mostly just needed help making sure the wiring was ok (it’s simple and has easy to follow instructions throughout). It works well and he loves using it to battle his other remote control toys, so it’s sturdy! Great toy overall, no complaints so far!

Got this for my 7y we built it together. I had to help him with the building instructions as some parts where hard for him to understand how it went together. Only problem he has was snapping the pieces together but his finger strength is a problem for him. Once built he loves playing with it ! He loves chasing people and making it fart.Only problem is it can be front heavy and fall forward sometimesOverall happy we got it

This is a work in progress. I can say it's very nicely made and all the pieces were there. I'm having fun with my grandson when he comes. We've got it partially together and i cant wait till we get it completed. We work on it when he stays over with me. Quality time alone is worth the price. Would make a great gift.

My 5yr old at the last minute said he wanted a dino that we could build together, then added “thats a robot”. I was a little skeptical at first but was pleasantly surprised. Parts fit well. Easy to assemble with clear instructions. Be was engaged for about 25 minutes and helped build the legs and installed the motor. I finished assembly in another 20-25 min. He really enjoys it. Whoever thought to out a fart noise on the remote is a genius he spent 30 min just making it fart and laughing his head off.

Multiple pieces missing. Really bummed! Since I got it for my son for Christmas and just now getting around to building it there’s nothing I can do about it either!

My 9 year old put it together by himself and thoroughly enjoyed doing it. It seems sturdy and works well.
