  Introducing the Meccano Meccanoid G15 KS Personal Robot—the only toy I’ve seen to date that has more moving parts than me! Ok, maybe not, but this is one complicated (in a good way … mostly) robot! Half puzzle, half human (no, not really), this guy is sure to provide hours of fun, or at least take a good many of them up. So step on through the portal and take a look at this truly amazing machine. One way or another, he’s sure to impress …    

Today I review the Zoomer Dino Jester Interactive Dinosaur Robot & consider the ways in which he is, and is not, similar to the Zoomer Dino Indominus Rex. If you enjoy smart / robot toys and would like to know just how well Jester measures up, click on through and consider the evidence. He’s definitely not a scary dino. Jester is more of a clown. Read on to see what I mean. 

Today I examine the first of 2 Zoomer Dino robots that I’ve recently been testing.

So, click on through and read my review if you’d like to learn all about this very scary Jurassic World Indominus Rex. I dare you!
