Robot gifts for 3 year old nephews

I have two three year old nephews, (belonging to different siblings). I know both of them love cars, diggers and currently and most enthusiastically, robots. My budget is around £30 each. Does anyone have any ideas? I saw one on amazon with mixed reviews, mostly saying it broke quite quickly. I have teenage daughters, and little boys toys are a world away for me! I’ve already bought garages, duplo, buses etc in the past.

We have this robot game from early learning which is currently half price: www.elc.co.uk/childrens-games-and-magic-sets/rockin-robot-game/146176.html They have to make the same robot shown on a card before the timer goes and it all falls off/makes you jump. My almost three year old likes it.. Although she wants the timer to go off. Might be nice along with something else.

Amazon got some good ones you can choose from. Just check the reviews to make sure they don't easily get broken. Usually, the cheapest are the ones that don't last. Go for those that are close to your budget. I recently bought one last month as a gift to my nephew.

Thanks both - I’ve bought one of those games each. Half price too, so what a bargain SmileI’m sure I’ll find something to go with it. The youngest of them is especially fond of vehicles, bless him.

what about vtech switch and go dino's. convert from vehicle to dino & also have electronic faces & talk (bit robot-y)! my son had a couple at that age and he still likes them now at age 7

Those are amazing! They vary a bit in price, so I’m sure I’ll find some in budget. If only the adult males were as easily sorted.

Home Bargains has really cute wind up tin robots for, I think, £1. Don't know how sturdy they are though.

I was also going to recommend the robot dinos, my DS has one and loves it.

I bought DS this

Science museum shop online has a whole robot section, some great stuff there. My DS is obsessed with the bloody things.

Actually one of his best robot toys was from there - a set of 12 stacking wooden robots. He’s had hours of fun with them, you can put them on each other shoulders to make different configurations.
