Build your very own wind powered strandbeest that moves by the wind and it's own engineering genius!

This Wind Walker Creator kit doesn't utilise electricity or batteries for power, it's infused with the power of nature!

Your DIY Strandbeest is made up of lightweight plastic tubes and wing-like propellers that drive it's feet to walk sideways when hit by wind. 

Follow the detailed instructions to assemble the body, attach the crank legs, configure the wind turbine and attach the cog wheels.

Wave a fan or use an electric fan to blow air at your tabletop walker and watch it shuffle and side-step to the left! 

You can even blow against the propeller or use the rotating shaft to make it move by hand when required!

Your kit contains: 130 plastic pieces including wind panels, a drive crank, mechanical walking pieces and illustrated instructions.

You will also require a pair of diagonal cutters to complete your project.

Recommended for ages 8 and up.

Dimensions once assembled: 20cm long.
