Super Hero Robots Overview:

Superman and Lois Lane are on the rocks. Batman is down in the dumps and can’t decide on a name. Dick Grayson has retired his Robin gig and there are slim pickin’s in the sidekick replacement pool. Wonder Woman is contemplating chucking it all for a political career. And every one of them has costume issues.

Meanwhile, the bad guys just seem to be getting more dastardly, dishonest, despicable and diabolical by the doggone day.

The Problem:

It’s just getting harder and harder to count on the old-school carbon-based super heroes to get the job done defending Truth, Justice and The American Way.

The Mission:

It may be time to start putting our support behind a new generation of robotic super heroes. We need a crack crew of engineers to hit the lab and start designing, assembling, testing and deploying a new class of mega-powered programmable guardians to step into the void.

Using LEGO Robotics components you’ll collaborate with a small design team to develop, build and program a controllable super hero prototype that will be put to the test at the Build-It-Yourself Super Hero Performance Evaluation Center.

You’ll go head-to-head against competing designs in contests of speed, strength and power. Your brainchild will race, climb and launch sugar-based edible projectiles in an effort to make also-rans of the competition and build an adoring fan base. Because costumes are absolutely critical to a super hero’s popularity and effectiveness, you’ll need to jazz up your collection of blocks, gears and wheels with some suitable fashion accessories. Finally, you’ll present your ideas, solutions and the latest and greatest super hero to a grateful public. And collect sidekick applications.

Super Powers You Will Acquire:

  • Power Point Guru
  • Employable Artist
  • Master Mechanical Engineer
  • Hot Shot Programmer
  • Practitioner of Secret Identities
