If you love constructing wooden steampunk models, this hand-cranked, robot-shaped DIY Music Box is just the thing for you!

Orpheus is an adorable functioning robot that plays a tune and lights up! It’s up to you to assemble him using the step-by-step instructions.

Punch out the pieces and line them up using the tiny part numbers. You will need a steady hand, good eye sight and lots of patience and care!

Stand him up or sit him down with his poseable arms and legs, then crank the handle to hear him play the tune "Cycle of Happiness".

The included electrical components allow you to light up his heart with a bright LED at the press of a button!

Your Robotime Steampunk DIY Music Box Orpheus kit contains:

  • 4 pre-scored plywood sheets and all other parts required for assembly (221 pieces)
  • An LED light, music box and screwdriver
  • Wood glue, sandpaper, tweezers and illustrated instructions

Recommended for ages 14 and up.

Approximate build time: 5-10 hours (difficulty - intermediate).

Requires 2 x A76 button cell batteries for the LED not included (equivalent to AG13 or LR44).

Assembled dimensions: 15cm x 9.2cm x 18.5cm

I purchased astronaut food and a prank golf ball for my 15 year old son, as stocking fillers for Christmas. Amazing. They arrived quick. Well packaged. And I know my son will love them. I hope I get to try some of the astronaut food. I have never seen that before. If not... I will be placing an order after Christmas for more. ...

Purchased two novelty miniature musical instrument desktop toys to take to work to amuse the office. Products are excellent and well packed for safe postage. CoolThings communicated the order and shipping details promptly, and items were sent and received quickly. Happy to recommend CoolThings and now that I know of them will likely purchase again....

My goods were exactly what I expected, I was told exactly where my parcel was and how long it would take to get to me. Everything was just so cool, as the name suggests. Love your stuff, it's so different....
