Construct Bots give you the ability to create your favorite Transformers and convert them easily between their robot form and vehicle form, or you can customize and create your own Transformers.
Each Construct Bot Construction kit comes with the pieces to make a specific Transformer, instructions, and extra pieces so you can design and play with your own creation. The larger sets come with a very handy and stackable storage box where you can keep pieces and instructions.
We received both Ironhide (smaller 45 piece set, no storage box) and Wheeljack (larger 55 piece set that comes with a storage box) to try out:
And here is what we made...
If you could only hear the adventures happening in our family room right now! Parts are being swapped, and robots are saving the good guys!
Now I will warn parents - from about ages 3-6, children may need some help with transforming the bots into their vehicles and back again, but they are done very similarly, so it is no big deal once you see how they connect! Otherwise, the parts are easy to connect and change, so kids have almost limitless ways they can change their Transformer to keep things fun and create new adventures.
Not only can kids play with the physical toy, but they can log into the online game, add the points that come with the toy packs, and they have an area to upload the bots you create and name!
The boys actually have been having so much fun with these, that we also now have the Optimus Prime/Megatron set as well. I can't wait to see what new robots they create!

What a blast... litterally... to flick the Cars Sorry Sliders around the racetrack! Regardless of who wins, this game is great.
