The product was smaller than I anticipated. It is cute decor for the office. Fun as long as you use your imagination.

Acrobots Are Fun

Acrobots are fun for kids who enjoy putting things together, or taking them apart. They can pose them, stack them, etc.

The Acrobots are nice, and it is a great price for 3. I prefer the single Acrobot with multiple joints, but for the money, it's a great item for the desk.

Tons of Fun

I ordered two sets of the Stacking Acrobats. One for my 4 1/2 year old and one for my 7 year old nephew to keep them occupied at a boring family event. The cousins laughed and played with the Acrobots for hours. These are especially good to keep in my purse and pull out at a restaurant while we wait for our meal. Overall, a good toy.

Acrobots Stack Pack

I bought the Stack Pack for my 11 year old son. Not only did my 11 yr old like them, so did my 9 yr old daughter and 12 yr old son. They stack them, put them on the fridge, and just carry them around. You know that we have a great toy in our house when the kids start fighting over it. That's exactly what happened when we opened the Acrobots Stack Pack!

My rating of Acrobots Stack Pack
Posted 10/12/2006 by Ann Voelkel

Rating:

Durable, cute, and fun to play with. I wish they could swivel more on other joints. When you stack them up, they tend to lean in one direction because you cannot adjust their hips. Still, a fun desk toy!

Not quite what I expected, but still good
Posted 7/30/2006

Rating:

When I originally was looking at the Acrobots I found the single packaged standard Acrobot. Then I saw a 3-pack and figured I'd save some money, but these appear to be miniature versions of the standard Acrobot. That was the first thing that surprised me. Another thing was they lack the extra joint that the regular Acrobot has - so you don't have a ton of options for what position you can place them in. Lastly, it looks like the ends of the feet/hands just have a piece of very thin metal foil glued onto a small magnet. I kinda wonder how long until the foil pulls off. They're still neat to play with and are just decoration for my cubicle, but if I had it to do over again I probably would have just bought 1 or 2 of the standard Acrobot so I'd have more options in positioning them.

Acrobots

Product seems fine. My son wanted Acrobots for his 9th birthday. He got two packs for a total of six relatively small Acrobots. He likes the smaller size and uses the original packaging for storage.

Cute little guys
Posted 2/12/2006 by Daniel Diaz

Rating:

This trio is cute. They are well made and fun to pose. The magets are strong and the colors are attractive. It turns out that the Acrobots feet and hands are at a slight angle. I stacked them on top of each other hands to feet and the tower of Acrobots leans forward. The hands and feet look like they are at right angles. I could always bend them myself. Not a problem, but I find it odd.

When I first opened up the package of acrobots they weren't exactly what i had expected, but after many hours of watching my friends and family enjoy them, I have to say that I was completely satisfied with this product and will be purchasing more as gifts for birthdays and other holidays. Thanks again.

My five year old has enjoyed playing with these toys for hours on end. They work well with other magnetic building toy sets. I wish I would have purchased an extra set for me.

For Kids?

Got this as a present for my nephew (2-1/2). He played with them, my niece played with them (4-1/2), but I think my brother was ready to claim them for himself! Fun for all ages.

Kids Love 'Em
Posted 1/7/2006 by Anne Monk

Rating:

Kids of all ages love these things. They are perfect for anyone who enjoys "fiddling" with things. Their play appeal is very high. However, I have big concerns about the welds, potentially lead, used to attach the magnets to the figures. (Note from Fat Brain Toys: We contacted Hog Wild, the manufacturer of Acrobots. There are NO welds on the Acrobots. They are merely riveted and crimped metal joints. Hear that? That's an audible worldwide sigh of relief.)

Great gifts
Posted 1/4/2006

Rating:

I gave these out as Christmas gifts to my co-workers. They seemed to be very well received. Giving food items is nice, but everyone does it and eventually it's gone. These toys are fun to play with, don't take up a lot of room, cost about the right amount you might want to spend on a co-worker, and if people don't like them, they can pass it on to their kids. I even bought some for myself.

I ordered these for my 6-year old son who likes manipulative toys. They were smaller than I expected but perfect for his small hands. He was delighted, especially upon discovering they were magnetic, and repositioned them over and over (just like advertised!)

Very playable!

I bought three of these sets for Christmas. I gave one to my son, one to my brother, and one to my sister-in-law. They all think these are super cute and fun to fidget with. They're much smaller than I imagined they were, and their joints don't turn in EVERY direction, so the possibilities for positions do have a limit. However, they're still cute little critters and fun to play with.

They are cool little people and come with a useful stand. I think you need at least two packages to get into it (3 bots in a package).

These figures are really fun to shape into different postures. I like the small size and bright colors. They have very strong magnetic feet and hands so they cling onto the fridge or file cabinet well.

My acrobots are now conducting a mountain rescue operation down the side of a metal container. A metal chain/rope would be a nice addition to the package. It would expand the mountaineering options.

I bought the Acrobots Stack pack for my three year old. They are a great inexpensive toy that allows my child's imagination to develop. He loves to play with them. They are awesome for car rides. I love to play with them also. These would make a great stocking stuffer for any age. They are the perfect size to put in a stocking. Highly recommended, A+++.

I bought several of these to have on hand for gifts. I gave them to 3 boys, ages 2 1/2, 5, and 7. Each of them carried them around for hours and played with them. It is such a nice, compact toy-great for traveling, etc. Also, they are just the right size for stocking stuffers.

Loved this item. I bought it for my son who is a "fidget-midget". He is always looking for something to do with his hands. The Acrobots kept him happy and busy for hours and hours....They were good value and well made! I would recommend! I am going to buy a set for Dad's desk and possibly even my boss!

Wonderfully Fun
Posted 10/6/2005

Rating:

These little guys are great. I have them on my desk at work. They are in a different pose everyday, and people love to come by and see what they and my "Candroid" are up to. The only complaint I have is I wish they had a little more articulation. The legs only move up and down. It would be nice to be able to move a little front to back as well.

These toys are cool for work. Others have really enjoyed them at work as well. They look cool hanging down from the metal shelf in a cubicle. Everything I thought I was buying.

Rating:

Kids love these...in fact, I purchased several for gifts. I wish the feet would actually sit flat on the platform, as only one can be flat. The platform could be larger too to accomodate two figures supporting a third. Still, this product is good value.

Acrobots for kids
Posted 5/27/2005 by Brian D. Wood

Rating:

My wife and I chose to pick up these acrobots as reward gifts for our two sons, ages 7 and 5. We ordered 4 packs. Each time they read through a short story, we reward them with a single acrobot. The acrobots work well with the Supermag magnets. Our sons can create buildings which the acrobots can stand upon, or they can create vehicles which the acrobots can sit in. I recommend anyone with little kids to order these with confidence.

My grandson just loves playing with them. we had brought some back from California and he wanted more and his friend wanted them also. Couldn't find them so I looked on the internet. I liked your prices. Will probably order more and some of the other items on your site.

My son loved the Acrobats. I wasn't so in love with them but he was and that was what mattered. He loved the clear heads and of course the magnets and colors. I thought that the magnets could have been a little stronger.

Acrobots Stacks for Easter!!
Posted 3/16/2005 by Elaine Marshall

The only thing I can see wrong with these are the size. For a child I would prefer them a little larger and to place 4 in a pack would be a great improvement even if it cost a little more. A really fun toy for all ages!

These magnetic 'bots are a lot of fun! You really need several, as this pack supplies, to enjoy the variety of shapes/stacks/forms you can make with them. The magnetic base (part of the package) makes them a very portable and compact entertainment to take along wherever you might be going (car/plane trips, etc. but keep away from computers!). I would recommend this toy to kids from 6 to 90.
