Q: The description isn't very clear - once you've built it, does it transform into the other shapes, or would you have to take it apart again? Also what does the solar panel power - lights, movement?
A: Hi, to turn one robot into another, you have to dismantle the robot and rebuild it. The robot takes power only when in the sun and then moves in three different ways. For the "robot", the solar panel helps to provide movement to the arms and legs. For the "scorpion" the solar charge moves the legs of the scorpion so it crawls. For the "tank" the solar charge moves the tracks around, making the tank move. We've added a video into the product page which shows how each of the robots move.
I hope this helps! Robyn.
