StikBot S1003 Studio, Orange and White/Clear

8 year old grandson loving making movies. Great toy.

Child loved them

Fast delivery, my son loved his surprise but unfortunately after a day of playing with it half the leg has came apart. I am unable to put it back together because it keeps falling off and I’ve tried to shorten the other leg so at least his legs could be the same length but I can’t get it off. So the poor guy is just going to have to hop

Simple but efficient!

These little Stickbots are a great way in to early animation. The little tripod is sturdy and holds a phone securely. The Stickbots themselves are brilliant for demonstrating joint movement allowing for some really clever animations. Try making a simple forward facing flip and the characters do it brilliantly. The surface does need to be a solid, flat surface for the suction to work effectively, but so far we've animated on glass, up the side of a cup of tea and along a wooden floor. The app is simple, but great quality in the final image and the ghosting feature is a real bonus for a free app.

I bought a couple of sets of this for a stop animation module I teach. I was surprised at the quality and flexibility of the figures. The pupils thoroughly enjoyed using them and the projects ended up being split between these and lego, usually lego dominates so it was a nice change. We will be buying more for next years class.

Is that it??? Looks so much more fun in the TV adverts but the stickbots themselves are difficult to manipulate and keep in position. Nice idea though and maybe for teens they'll have more patience with it but younger kids find them awkward.

Fun for hours with these , they come with other little accessories hike hair and bits and bobs to create a good green screen film/clip!
