Construct & Create Hydraulic Cyborg Hand Kit

I purchased this as a gift for a friend who loves Lego and anything requiring assembly. It turned out to be a fantastic choice! The quality of the kit is impressive, it's well-made, durable, and surprisingly sturdy once put together. The assembly process was part of the fun, offering a satisfying challenge without being overly complicated. It's clear that a lot of thought went into the design to make it engaging and educational. Watching the hydraulic cyborg hand come to life and work as intended was a delight, providing not just a sense of accomplishment but also hours of entertainment. This kit is perfect for anyone who enjoys building and learning how things work, especially for those who appreciate the mechanics behind hydraulic systems. It’s a great way to combine fun with education, making it a superb gift idea for Lego enthusiasts or anyone fascinated by engineering and robotics.

Great little project. Easy to build, works perfectly, and now I can pretend I’m a budget version of a certain time‑traveling robot. My only complaint is that it hasn’t tried to take over the world yet — but give it time.

CONSTRUCT & CREATE Hydraulic Cyborg Hand Kit An amazing construction kit, I was looking for a project to do and found this kit on Amazon, it looked very interesting. On opening the box I was very impressed with the quality and build of the parts to be assembled. All parts are easily identifiable, colour coded and numbered. The instruction manual is a great example of how one should be written, easy to read and understand, a joy to read. All parts are easy to remove from the frames and fit together, assembly is easy to follow and surprising how few screws are required to hold it all together and allowing the mechanics to operate. Having been in engineering most of my working life I was intrigued to see how the hydraulic system would work, it did and is brilliantly simple. This is an excellent way for youngsters to learn about STEM (science, technology, engineering and mechanics) I am not easily impressed but this did impress me. At less than £30.00 I rate this product five stars and a bargain!!

Bought for nearly 10 year old, building it was enjoyable but needed adult supervision and snippers to remove from the plastic frame. Daughter loves the finished product and enjoys trying to pick things up with it. It seems sturdy once built and managed to pick up a nice range of objects. The use of the thumb requires a tricky syringe type mechanism which she has to use her other hand for - not a barrier to use but a bit more thought for the lower end of the age recommendation would make it more functional and accessible. I don't think we're at significant risk of making a Terminator with this, but it was overall pretty fun and engaging and opened up some great discussions.

I wondered if my 12yr old would engage or find this a it young. After the initial cajoling to get going, he really got into it. (He is a model building fan anyway so that probably helps). Easy to do, clear instructions, engaging, no fuss and is being played with afterwards. The turning button in the middle doesn't quite work, but not sure if that is a building or product issue. Happy Mom.

This is a great thing .. not quite toy not quite functional. But brings a lot of joy to my Grandson. He built it with his Dad so that was nice. ( Age range is about right he was a bit younger) He’s had it some time and still one of his fave’s.

It took 3 days for my son to complete the project but he really loved it. One of the best birthday gift he said.
