Description
Bionic & Cyborg Hand STEM Bundle
Build, control, and explore the mechanics behind real-world robotics—no motors or electricity required!
The Bionic and Cyborg STEM Bundle combines two incredible hands-on STEM kits—the Mega Cyborg Hand and the Bionic Robotic Arm—for an immersive journey into hydraulics, pneumatics, biomechanics, and mechanical engineering. Together, these award-winning builds let kids experience how robots move, grip, and interact with the world using only water, air pressure, cables, and human power.
Perfect for curious builders and future engineers, this bundle delivers hours of educational fun and awe-inspiring mechanical motion.
Mega Cyborg Hand
Build a GIANT, wearable hydraulic hand!
Explore hydraulics, pneumatics, and robotics by constructing a massive, mechanical hand powered entirely by water and air pressure. Using over 200 plastic pieces and piston tubes filled with water, this impressive build simulates the movements of a real human hand—no batteries, motors, or electricity required.
Once assembled, the cyborg hand slips onto your own hand like a glove. By moving your fingers, you control the mechanical fingers, which can grip and lift everyday objects like bottles, pencils, and small items. Every finger joint is adjustable for precise movement, and the hand can be configured as a left hand, right hand, or claw-style with the thumb centered.
A full-color, step-by-step manual guides construction and experimentation while explaining how hydraulic and pneumatic systems are used in real industrial robots. Winner of the 2021 STEAM Toy of the Year Award, this kit is an exciting introduction to engineering concepts through hands-on play.

Bionic Robotic Arm
The robotic arm of the future—controlled by your hands!
Assemble a cutting-edge robotic arm driven by a tendon-inspired cable system that mimics how muscles move bones. Built from nearly 300 pieces, this segmented arm delivers mesmerizing, fluid motion reminiscent of a sci-fi cyborg creature.
Control the arm intuitively using two joysticks that pull and release nylon cables threaded throughout the arm. One joystick controls the upper section, the other controls the lower, making movement feel surprisingly natural. Buttons on the joysticks allow you to rotate the claw up to 180 degrees and open or close it to grab, move, and release objects with precision.
For extra fun, swap the gripper claw with a bionic eel head and challenge yourself to pick up the included shrimp models! A full-color manual walks builders through assembly while teaching the science behind robotic arms, biomimicry, and real-world engineering applications.
Key Features:
-
Innovative tendon-driven cable system
-
Two joystick controls for intuitive operation
-
360° horizontal and 180° vertical range of motion
-
Interchangeable claw and eel head end effectors
-
No motors or electricity required
