Meccano Erector 25-in-1 Robot Set

This Meccano building kit is generally recommended for children aged 8 and up. It requires basic mechanical assembly skills and the ability to follow detailed instruction manuals to build the varying models.

The set includes over 160 distinct metal and plastic components to construct the various robotic models. These parts feature real, functional tools like screws and nuts to teach basic mechanical engineering principles.

Yes, Meccano and Erector are essentially the same brand, as Meccano acquired the rights to the Erector name. Today, the company markets its construction sets under both labels depending on the region and target audience.

Some of the builds in the set are motorized to allow the robots to move, which requires standard batteries to function. You will typically need to supply your own AA or AAA batteries to power the included motors.
