What Star Wars enthusiast, young or old, wouldn’t want to have this best toys 2009 list member? Uncle Milton has done it again. The Star Wars Darth Vader Robotic Arm is part of the Star Wars Science series line introduced in 2009 by Uncle Milton. This toy is not only great entertainment for children and adults, but is an excellent learning tool, too. The learning guide included with the kit features both fun and informative data and details on how robotic arms are used in the medical field. If you lost an arm wouldn’t you want a Darth Vader arm to replace it? It surely would be better than even your real arm.

How it Works

This robotic arm kit has an easy to follow instruction book to help make the assembly process stress free for not only the adults in the family but for the manufacturer’s recommended age for children of six and up. The kit itself includes 45 parts that are made of lightweight black and gold plastic. By snapping all the pieces together you create the robotic arm. The gears themselves are pre-assembled so that you only need to connect all the pieces to make the arm function. No need to figure out how to put all the gears together so that the joints can move. One of the interesting things about this toy is that there is no need to keep batteries around as it requires zero batteries to work. Its many movements are performed by you manually. This is great news for the adults and their pocket books! Why not use some of that extra energy the kids have to have fun with this function?

After it is assembled, the Star Wars Darth Vader Robotic Arm looks just like the one Darth Vader used in the Star Wars movies. It can be maneuvered with the use of the interactive controls. These controls are located in the stand. With practice and good eye and hand coordination, you will be able to extend and turn the arm, bend the elbow, control the finger movements, and even grip and hold lightweight objects. This gripping ability is made possible by the fact that each finger has three joints. When the arm assembly is complete, its dimensions are 16 inches in length and 16 inches high with a 7 inch base.

You may want to leave the robotic arm assembled all the time so it can be used as a decoration or used to display an item. This sleek black and gold robotic arm will go with any décor. Just grip one of your favorite objects in the robotic arm’s fingers and make whatever statement you want. You could display a can of your favorite beverage, another Star Wars toy, a favorite photograph, or a notepad so friends and family can leave you messages.
