Product Description

From the Manufacturer

Now you can be the proud owner of one of the Limited Edition Black NXT micro-controllers that we have produced to celebrate the 10 year anniversary of LEGO MINDSTORMS. The first LEGO MINDSTORMS products came out in the year 1998 and have since then continued to bring fun and active building and programming experiences to millions of robotic builders across the world! Why a Black NXT? Because it is cool! And looking around in the MINDSTORMS community we noticed that a Black NXT was high on the wish list among users. Once you have bought and received your new Black NXT you will get access to additional materials like a special-made program for the Black NXT, a personal certificate of ownership, wallpapers, building instructions for special models.

3.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy unless you're a collector! March 16, 2009
Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
There is no doubt that the Lego NXT is an amazing product. I can personally attest it since I have two myself! but this particular model is considerably more expensive than the garden variety and should only be considered for purchase if you're in need of a special/different version of an otherwise exact and same product. Apart from the black color, it's in no way different from the less expensive model that you can get on the Lego Education page, not even considering that it only refers to the programable brick itself, without any other parts, cables or whatsoever. I give it three stars because its only difference from the other NXT brick is it's color and price. You can even forget about that 'special' program: the only really special programm is the one you write yourself. Besides, I'm sure you can later get it on the net for free. Amazing product, but buy the cheaper one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Black NXT. Good price from Amazon. October 22, 2009

I have RIS 2.0 already, and I don't want to spend $[...] on the full kit. So this is the best option for me. I have also purchased additional sensors (lego and from 3rd party) and converter cables.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kudo's from a Lego Robotics Coach! August 6, 2009
Durability: 4.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
The Lego Mindstorms system has always been a favorite. The FLL Robotics program teaches students age 9-14 how to tackle real-world engineering problems and present their results to others. NXT is easy to build and program and can be used to build some 'highly-capable' robots. Let your creativity flow!
