Tobbie the Robot is a clever and interactive little fellow who loves kids!

He has wonderful futuristic lights and sounds effects, and two programmed modes that assist him to follow or avoid certain objects.

You do have to build him, but he is cleverly designed to be easy-to-assemble using the detailed, step-by-step instruction manual!

Once he's all together, it's just like having a pet in your midst, as Tobbie responds using his very own emotions and gestures!

In follow me mode, Tobbie follows whichever object approaches him, just like an obedient pet.

He'll use his IR sensor to detect your movement and follow your hand, another pet, or even another robot!

In explore mode, Tobbie can avoid obstacles using his IR sensor and can find new routes to keep moving.

Challenge him to see what he can do! Why not create a maze for him, or allow him to follow you! He's super stable on his feet with 6 spidery legs to keep him balanced!

Recommended for ages 8 and up.
Requires 4 x AAA batteries to operate.
He stands approximately 16cm tall.

Nephew liked it when he received it, but not sure if he has put it all together successfully.

I have purchased three Tobbie robots as three of my grandsons will just adore the. They look great and I am looking forward to Christmas Day to see their faces when they open these amazing robots.

Four family members will be thrilled to receive their unique 3D Puzzle boxes. Before buying, I reviewed the items on Coolthings and other online sources. The prices were reasonable, and I was purchasing from an established Australian business, which is important to me....

It was done with goodwill and authenticity (but did not, alas, impress sufficiently to earn the $50 v...

As a grandmother of 7, (eldest a girl aged 9 then 6 boys aged from 6 to 1), I am always looking for new, innovative and stimulating gifts for them all and " Cool Things" did not disappoint.
