    • How many kinds of robots can I assemble with this product? And how long does it take to make one robot?

      Hi, 
      The instruction manual shows five different robot models -Racer, Android L30, Roaster, Top dog, Donnergugi- can be built. However, since parts are similar to LEGO bricks, your imagination is the only limit.
      It takes less than 30 mins for an adult to build the most complicated robot, Racer.
      Hope this answer helps you.
