Great Idea. Terrible Execution.
||Posted . Owned for 8 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The idea behind these is a fun one. Robots made out of random bits and pieces of garbage that are totally modular with each other. You can be happy with a single set, or buy multiples to make bigger robots. The fact that they're all blind boxes isn't even as big of a drawback as other lines, due to being able to just remix any duplicates you have into a different robot. Add to the fact that the dumpster packaging, "chain and padlock" keeping it closed, plastic "trash bags" the parts are sealed in, and the cardboard boxes make for great accessories for the robots themselves, or for any of your other toys or displays. Unfortunately, the overall quality of the actual product totally kills the potential. Some parts fit into each other just fine, while others are very loose and will fall apart easily during play. Worse are the parts that are too tight, and either won't go in at all, or break off when you try to remove them. One of the limb parts cracked the body of a robot down the molding steam when we first tried to pop it into the port. We've had two other part's ball pegs snap off into the foot parts we tryed to put them in. These sets will also come with either a mini light module, that lets you light up your robots by way of clear plastic bendy pipes; or a motor module, that causes certain parts of each robot to either open and close, wiggle, spin, or roll around. The motor could make one robot roll around on wheels just fine. However, when the motor was attached to a body with a spinning feature, the part that was attacked to it along with a propeller must have been too heavy for the motor, and it seized up and broke. All of these problems make actually playing with they toy very annoying and cumbersome for anyone teenage to adult, and near impossible to enjoy buy younger children.
