Thames & Kosmos Hero: Sound Sensing Robot

Open your ears, Hero hears everything! Through its three directional microphones, this robot perceives and reacts to sounds. Have fun with Hero’s four play modes! Hero can locate you, follow you around, be remotely controlled by your sound commands, and even play against you in a wild game of tug-of-war — all by sensing sounds! Clap your hands or use the included castanet to send commands to Hero.

Hero's innovative design includes movable arms that can disappear into his spherical body and a giant, illuminated eye for making facial expressions. Build Hero from over 100 parts. The full-color, 52-page manual guides you through a step-by-step assembly and includes an adventure comic. Plus, learn about how Hero’s super-hearing works, and all about sound waves and spatial hearing.
