Description

Extra parts for robot projects

A supplemental set expands a system you already own instead of delivering a model of its own. This one is intended for the NXT platform and adds building elements for robots and technical constructions. That fits its place in the education range, where schools and project groups often need larger quantities of parts. With 674 pieces there is plenty of material to extend several builds or to replace elements that have gone missing. Minifigures are absent because the emphasis is on engineering.

Dark tones for technical work

The main colours are black, light bluish grey, dark bluish grey and blue. That palette is typical of technical sets: it looks functional, and the parts blend unobtrusively into a robot. Black and the two greys give structure, while blue provides a few accents. The colour scheme also helps with sorting, since functional parts and cladding can be told apart quickly. Anyone extending an existing NXT model gets elements that usually match what they already have.

One hundred and seventeen part types

The standout number is the variety: 117 different elements among 674 pieces. That points to many different connectors, beams and special parts of the kind engineering builds depend on. The complete parts list on this page shows each shape with its quantity and colour. It makes it easy to check whether individual elements are missing for a particular project, and to decide whether this supplemental set is worth adding. With such variety it pays to read the list first.

Who benefits most

The set is aimed at schools, robotics groups and hobbyists who want to expand or restock their NXT system. Collectors looking for technical parts in black and grey will also find a large, varied supply here. The “What can I build?” feature shows which models come out of these parts and your own collection. Because the elements suit many technical constructions, the set stays a useful pool of parts for your own mechanical ideas even without a programmable brick.
