Description

Build, code, and play — with mighty REX! Assemble your own robotic model of the giant, powerful, ferocious Tyrannosaurus rex. Use the handheld controller to command your robot to move around in all directions, light up its eyes, and play sounds, including chowing down on food and even farting! The special Code+Control wireless unit enables you to either directly control REX in real time or write and save sequences of commands for the robot to perform at the push of a button. No app or separate devices are required! REX makes hands-on STEM learning fun and accessible. First, follow the step-by-step instructions to assemble the robot and controller from more than 150 pieces using the included screwdriver and decorate your completed dino with stickers. At 11 inches tall and over 20 inches long, REX really commands respect! Then, learn the function of each button on the controller and how to combine those functions together into programs for your robot. With two motors and a flexible tail, REX can move in one of two modes: walking or gliding. Put REX into guardian mode and it will use its infrared sensors to identify intruders then unleash a ferocious roar! Finally, you can try out the suggested experiments to learn more about how the robot works and about the various electrical components found inside a robot.

Keep them learning

It took my son a few days to finish the dinosaur. He spent around 30 minutes each time. The instruction book is very detailed. The pieces are big so easy to figure out where the parts go. It can be a bit harder for kids on the younger side. The coding is my son favorite party. Making a video game is his next goal.

Hands on!

I strive to make my children remain children for as long as possible and with that you have to keep them busy. I love hands on activities to keep their brains fresh and their soul busy. This set makes a fun way to build something together and to make it work. The end goal is playing with it while using the controller.

So fun

This toy was a bit of a project to put together and it was awesome. My son and husband sat there and did it all together. Once together it’s such a fun toy. He has played with it daily. Definitely recommend it

Dino kit

To be fully honest, me and my daughter haven't put this together yet. We opened it up and went through the book and the parts and it looks very fun and manageable. As soon as she gets back from camp we plan on assembling Dino and stationing her to guard my daughter's room. I may update my review if necessary.

Cute project for the dinosaur enthusiast!

This is a very cute dinosaur project. The idea is great, but it did take more effort from adults than I would have liked. My testers were 7 and 8. They loved following directions and putting it together. They love legos and building and this was similar, but had a dinosaur at the end. We are still working on the 'code and control' part as well. It's more of a learning curve than I was anticipating.

Fun, entertaining toy

This Dinosaur Robot TRex is a fun toy, my almost 9 year old is loving putting it together. The instructions are clear and she’s been able to complete a good portion without adult help. I do wish it came with a mini screwdriver, the screws are micro sized.
