There is a reason this went to clearance. My son got this for Christmas and it was really cool in the beginning, but it broke within a few hours of playing with it.

Reviewer: R. Castile,
This product is terrible! It took me an almost an hour to put the thing together and then when I finally finished it did not work! I had to take it almost completely apart and put it back together. Then it worked one time and broke.There is some part that is malfunctioning. My son was so excited about this toy when he saw the box, I am very upset with the company who made this product. It was the wost money I have ever spent!
I did not want to give this product any stars but Amazon's rating system would not allow me to do that.
Don't waste your money on this piece of junk!!!!

Star Wars Star Wars Science - Darth Vader Robotic Arm
This item was a waste of time. It was difficult to assemble and it did not function properly. The hand would not close as other mentioned. I was mislead in thinking this was a robotic item based by the name. It does not move by any motors. It is moved by 2 plastic levers that one twisted the arm and the other was supposed to open and close the hand which it did not. You pushed both levers to lower the arm. Don't waste your money on this item. It is on it's way back to Amazon.com as we speak. There is another robotic arm that looks better and is better reviewed on here for about the same money!
Too Bad, it is a waste of money

Reviewer: J. Everly,
We thought this would be a really cool toy for my 7 year old son who loves Star Wars and science. Unfortunately, the fingers didn't work because they were not linking together correctly with the wrist. Although when we had the hand off of the arm, we could see how the fingers should be able to work, but there was no way to troubleshoot when the toy was all together.
Also, the levers that control the arm would not stay in place- they would just pop off!
The decorative parts would also pop off. This is a very flimsy toy.
Fun, though "robotic" is a stretch

Just a few notes:
- "Robotic" is a bit misleading. There aren't batteries or any sort of power involved. You move the hand.
- I don't have an 8-year-old, so I'm not sure whether one could follow the assembly instructions or not. I get the feeling that this is one of those toys where the combination of a child's small fingers and an adult brain make a good team.
- In the end, you still have a Vader arm on your desk, and that's pretty fun.
