Explore hydraulics, pneumatics, and robotics with your very own GIANT hydraulic hand! Using over 200 plastic pieces and piston tubes that you fill with water, build an awesome mechanical hand that uses hydraulic power to simulate the movements of the human hand no motors or electricity required! Once assembled, your cyborg hand slips onto your own hand like a glove, with mechanical fingers that you operate with your own fingers and that can grip objects with enough force to lift them. Challenge yourself to pick up and hold a variety of items like bottles, pencils, small items anything with reach! The hand can be configured in three ways left hand, right hand, and claw-like, with the thumb in the center and can be adjusted to fit virtually all hand sizes. A 40-page, full-color manual guides model building and experimentation and provides engaging scientific information about how pneumatic and hydraulic systems are used in industrial robots to assist with a variety of tasks in our modern world.

  • Perfect STEM Gift: Fun and Educational Mega Cyborg Hand Kit!
Style: Mega Cyborg Hand
I bought the Thames & Kosmos Mega Cyborg Hand STEM Experiment Kit as a Christmas gift for my 9-year-old son, and it was a huge hit! From the moment he opened it, he was excited to dive into the building process. The instructions were clear and easy for him to follow, and he managed to assemble it mostly on his own, with just a little guidance. Watching him figure out how each piece fit together and seeing his pride in completing it was priceless. The kit provides a fantastic hands-on learning experience, teaching mechanical concepts and the basics of hydraulics in a fun and engaging way. Once assembled, the cyborg hand is incredibly cool. It fits comfortably, works smoothly, and my son has been having a blast testing its capabilities, like picking up objects or pretending he's a robot. The fact that it’s adjustable for different hand sizes means he’ll be able to use it for a long time. This STEM kit is not only entertaining but also educational, sparking curiosity about engineering and science. I highly recommend it for any kid who loves to build, tinker, and explore how things work. It's a gift that keeps on giving! ... show more

  • Easy to follow instructions, nice and dirty product..
Style: Mega Cyborg Hand
This is absolutely the best gift for our 11-year-old this year. The directions were super clear and easy for him to follow. It took him about five hours in total but there was no missing parts, nothing broken, and everything works exactly as described. We have tried other forms of robot hands before, but they have all had failures. This product was absolutely wonderful. We highly recommend this product! ... show more

  • Fun but difficult to assemble
Style: Mega Cyborg Hand
Purchased for 8yo son, there was no way he could complete this! Husband worked on it for a few hours and still struggled. The concept is very cool and son absolutely loves the finished product but definitely was not age appropriate for assembly

  • The expression says it all.
Style: Mega Cyborg Hand
My son is 6 1/2, and was able to build 85% of this on his own or with very minimal help. We had the special clippers that made snipping out the pieces super easy without having to file down the burs. Her said it was the best present ever. Was great for spending time together and a great learning experience for him. This was all I was hoping it would be and more ☺️ ... show more

  • Not an easy build but the kids loved it
Style: Mega Cyborg Hand
I bought this for two families for Christmas. It is definitely not an easy build, it takes parent help and time. However, it is pretty cool once finished. Both the 6 year old and the 10 year old loved it.

  • A lot of fun but qualify could improve
Style: Mega Cyborg Hand
I think it’s a pretty good value as it kept my 6-year-old occupied for quite a few days to put it together. He got it as a Christmas gift and immediately fell in love with it, even before opening the box. He did need some help here and there but was able to follow the instructions and do most of the assembly himself. There are two things that could be improved in my opinion. First, it leaves a very rough sometimes pointy bump after breaking off the pieces from the frame, so definitely need to be careful when younger kids are playing with it. Second, the screws are a bit tight even for me, so I ended up helping to make sure all the screws went all the way in. But overall this is a pretty cool toy and the most important thing is my son loves playing with it! If I had the choice I would give 4.5 stars. ... show more

  • Things not included
Style: Mega Cyborg Hand
Cool product, I would definitely say needs an adult to help build. Box did not come with mini screw driver, so trying to find the right size to work was a bit difficult. Instructions didn't inform you on what you needed for size. Got half of it built and then when we got to the hydronic part, the instructions did not state what type of pil to use and did not provide it as well. Other than that once we can figure out how to build the rest then this would be a cool hand. ... show more
