Toys and Games Reviews of Toysmith 4 M Soda Can Robug
Customer Review: excellent introduction to robots
Summary: 4 Stars
2 of my 4 kids really enjoyed being a part of the building process. My 6-yr old son wandered off near the beginning, but my 4-yr old and 8-yr old were spellbound. It took less than 30 minutes to put it together. Then we spent 30 minutes watching it spin in circles on the floor. It doesn't have an extremely sturdy build and it is definitely not 11 pounds of shipping. It's a fun little toy, albeit kind of expensive. We like the one we have, but won't be getting another. The emphasis in the description on recycling is a little over the top...Customer Review: Great!
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this robot as a Christmas gift for my 13 year old brother. He has recently been taking apart electronics and trying to make robots out of the inside parts. The Robug let him see how the pieces fit together. I was worried at first because I thought it might be too childish, but he seemed to really enjoy it and thought it was "super cool!." It was simple and quick to make and I would recommend it to anyone. I ordered it from Hobby Shack. They delivered it quickly and I had no problems at all.Customer Review: A nice $10 gift item, not a nanobot bent on world domination.

Look this isn't a kit from Nasa. It will not be the robot building experience of your lifetime. However, it will kill an hour or maybe two with a child and then leave something neat for them to have on their shelf. You will not be programing this as a droid for etiquette and protocol. It is meant to offer a little bit of fun on a Saturday afternoon just after lunch but before you start thinking about dinner. Treat it like the 10 dollar gift item it is and everyone will be thrilled.Customer Review: Cute and amusing!

I bought this product for my eleven year old brother. He and my dad had a great time putting it together. Once it was assembled (not too hard) the switch was flipped and the robot immediately buzzed itself across the table. Cute and fun to watch. I wouldn't say it created hours of amusement, but there was a sense of accomplishment and I don't feel that it will gather much dust before it's played with again.Customer Review: flimsy, cheap
Summary: 1 Stars
It's easy to put together, but the legs aren't strong enough to support the weight of the batteries, can, and motor. They start to bend immediately and the bug tips over almost right away once it's turned on. The kiddo put a lot of work into putting this together and was really disappointed when the legs kept giving out.
