I was given the Advanced ‘AA’ Robot radio kit with the expansion set and manual. All in great condition…figured I’d save it for my kids…

Somehow you missed the Bloc-Tronic kit on my site when writing your article! A friend of mine found this kit at a garage sale about 10 years ago and gave it to me. I've never done anything with it as I lacked the manual and some of the pieces seemed to be from other kits. So thank you so much for uploading the manual, maybe now I can make some sense of it.

I found an unopened box last week at my local thrift store. How do I know which set mine is? Haven´t opened it yet but I guess that it should say somewhere on the box?

My dad dave me a set of Bloc-Tronics when I was a kid and I still have them to this day. Yesterday, my ten year old son found them and was asking about what they were and we took them out of the packages and put togethor some simple projects. I was amazed by there condtion and that each component still worked has intended. I even put together experiment # 96 and was able to listen to the radio broadcast of the Giants and Eagles football game. I wish that toy producers would provide more projects such has Bloc-Tronics. It was exciting to see my son actually learn something from a toy.

Clearly I did not read the above comments before I commented on the lack of a modern alternative – glad to hear they still give kids some credit for their ability to learn advanced concepts.

I recently purchased one of these toys at a thrift store. It appears to be unused. All of the print is still on the blocks, and the wires are still bound with twist ties. All of the parts and the manual are there and appear to be in original condition. I have wanted to play with it since I got it, but have refrained in order to find out its value first. I am dismayed though to hear that they no longer make the toy or anything like it since i intended to replace it with something comparable if I sold it. Anyhow, if someone is interested in buying the set, I will consider offers. I also have a vintage Galoob RC Porsche, 60’s or 70’s, that also appears to be untouched and that I would also be interested in selling. If you are interested contact me at ravindararora@gmail.com.

Lectron blocks are still available from http://www.lectron.de in Germany. You can email the company at lectron@frankfurter-verein.de and write your email in German. If you need help translating, go to http://www.paralink.com but be careful about plugging in English words that have multiple meanings. Always use the back translation feature to ensure that your correspondence makes sense. Then order as many Lectron kits and extra blocks as you possibly can, and enjoy. Cheers!
