HEXBUG JUNKBOTS - Industrial Dumpster Assortment Kit - Surprise Toys in Every Box LOL with Boys and Girls - Alien Powered Toys for Kids - 50+ Pieces of Action Construction Figures - for Ages 5 and Up

I really wasn't expecting much out of this toy. It's just a bunch of fake garbage in a garbage can. Then, your kid starts putting the pieces together to make little robots. It's wildly creative. They basically recycle junk from a garbage can into new things. My son (9) is enjoying this immensely! It's a good value for the money after all. The little garbage dumpster is great for holding all the pieces when they're not playing with it.

For the price, it’s funny to me that anyone would rate this less than 5 stars!My 9 year old has spent hours and hours playing with these toys. They are so cleverly designed. I am extremely impressed. I wish we could know how many sets there are total, so we could know when we’ve gotten them all.Currently here to order more sets!If your kids are mechanical at all, or interested in robots, this fun inexpensive set will be a win! Buy it!!!

Cute

The main reason I can’t give five stars is that, as other reviews mention, many pieces are simply too difficult for even a 5-year-old to put together. A secondary reason is the “collectible” aspect which I’ll explain more about below. Other than that, they’re awesome.My 5-year-old son is a robot maniac. He’s skilled with Lego, both in assembling sets far above his age level and also in making his own creations. So this concept is perfect: modular robots you can create according to a schematic and also piece together according to your imagination. He’s played with the single set for hours so far.As mentioned above, many pieces are just too hard to snap together. So instead of a “solo play” toy, I have to supervise and help. Not the end of the world, but if you want your young kid to be entertained while you read a good book, this won’t cut it.I really don’t like the “random collectible sets” aspect. You don’t know what parts you’ll get, and that’s simply not appropriate for a toy targeting kids as young as four. Don’t get me wrong, I like collectible things in general, such as collectible card games, miniatures, etc. But for a product this specific, it’s lame. We didn’t get the motor module so now I have to order more sets with no idea what I’ll get. I would gladly have paid more money just to get a complete set of all the major components. Furthermore, I have no idea how many sets I need to buy to conceivably get all the possible pieces.Despite the down sides, my son and I both love Junkbots. One day when he becomes a mechanical engineer and starts building real robots, maybe he’ll stumble across this review on Amazon 😂

This product was awesome! So much more than u thought! While the price is pretty high. I still bought it and still enjoyed it! I would recommend for parents with kids who will not choke on small items

I was excited to put these together with my kiddos, but they were very underwhelming. Pieces are very small and easy to lose, not terribly robust (several broke with minimal effort applied), some robots were just inherently unstable and difficult to arrange into a somewhat metastable configuration and pose, and the light and motor units were a great idea poorly executed.

Maybe seems like plastic junk but brilliant toy for the stage my grandsons are in right now, kept them busy for an hour, motors make this interesting and fun. I just with they weren’t random sets because I don’t want to buy a repeat. I’d buy more if labeled

I purchased this set for my 8 year old niece. Due to us social distancing I haven’t been able to be around when she played with the set, so I asked her to write a review for me. I couldn’t have said it any better myself.Review from My sweet niece:My aunt send me this junk bot toy set!I’ve had lots of toys with small parts like Ice Cream Shop Woodsies, and those little toys you get from vending machines. But Junk Bots is the best toy set ever! First of all, the lock and chain are SOOO adorable. Next, There are so many gross and fun pieces. Like milk with chunks. Eww. And a jackhammer.I sorted them into piles of plastic boxes and paper groceries boxes and bags, and a pile of favorites cause they’re so cute.Then, I tried to figure what the pieces are and what they do. I figured out that they snap together with knobs and little holes. Some of them light up and spin! The spinning one goes into a funny shaped hole in the pieces. My Nonni figured out that the light thingies go in little holes to make pieces light up. I don’t want to give away any spoilers, but there are so many surprises! You are going to love this Junk Bot set! If you come across this amazing toyYOU should definitely buy it!
