Nerdbots

Mr. Robot Head

This robot game requires a gentle and steady hand to get the loop all the way from one side of the wire to the other without touching the wire itself, Operation-style. When you touch the wire, the robot’s eyes will flash. Hours of maddening frustration. $28.99 from ThinkGeek.
