Build a unique sound-sensing robot from over 100 parts and learn about engineering and sound technology as you play and experiment with your six-legged robot friend. Thanks to its three directional microphones, Hero perceives and reacts to sounds, allowing you to control it by clapping your hands, snapping your fingers, playing music, or using the included castanet. Activate Hero to follow you around, respond to specific series of sounds, join you in a dance party, or even challenge you to a wild game of tug-of-war! With four different play modes, Hero provides hours of open-ended play and exploration. Hero's innovative design includes movable arms that disappear into its spherical body and a giant, illuminated eye for making facial expressions. The full-color, 52-page manual guides you through step-by-step assembly and includes a comic-book-style story about your new robot companion! \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003eFrom the Brand\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv style=\\\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0;margin:0;padding:0;line-height:0;font-size:0;\\\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\\\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/c3b21ee1-13b0-42d7-a960-02f2d4174ebd.__CR0,0,1464,625_PT0_SX1464_V1___.jpg\\\" style=\\\"flex:1 1 auto;min-width:120px;max-width:100%;height:auto;object-fit:contain;margin:0!important;padding:0!important;display:block;border:0;vertical-align:top;line-height:0;\\\" loading=\\\"lazy\\\" \/\u003e\u003cimg src=\\\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media-library-service-media\/a38a5cea-5f2e-41be-9048-d35249498dce.__CR0,0,315,145_PT0_SX315_V1___.jpg\\\" style=\\\"flex:1 1 auto;min-width:120px;max-width:100%;height:auto;object-fit:contain;margin:0!important;padding:0!important;display:block;border:0;vertical-align:top;line-height:0;\\\" loading=\\\"lazy\\\" \/\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt Thames \u0026amp; Kosmos, our goal is to provide fun, wholesome, educational experiences for kids and families of all shapes and sizes!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor over 200 years, our global family of companies has been refining the process of developing creative and innovative ways to inspire children—and adults!—to discover their world, ask questions, and try things for themselves, all with the goal of transforming that curiosity into knowledge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eHow did we get our start?\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThames \u0026amp; Kosmos was founded in 2001 when a Rhode Island science museum director and her son partnered with a 200-year-old German publishing house to fulfill the great need for science education materials that were more stimulating, effective, relevant—and of course, fun!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eHow do we support our products?\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur full-time team of in-house product experts is professional, knowledgeable, and responsive.
