Clementoni Anibot Gorilla Power Robot

Build a Robotic Gorilla That Walks, Rocks, and Roars — Anibot Gorilla Power Robot by Clementoni

Gorillas don’t walk like other animals — they rock from side to side in a powerful, distinctive knuckle-walking gait that’s all their own. The Clementoni Anibot Gorilla Power Robot captures that movement exactly. Kids build the robot from scratch, assembling the gear system and motor-driven arm mechanism that produces a realistic rocking, forward-moving walk — and when it’s done, their gorilla stomps into action with glowing LED eyes and an integrated speaker that plays real gorilla grunts and screams. Part of Clementoni’s Science and Play Robotics range, it’s a hands-on introduction to gears, motors, and mechanical movement that feels nothing like studying and everything like building something genuinely impressive.

What’s Included

• ✅ All plastic components to build the Gorilla Robot — easy-to-assemble, durable parts
• ✅ Electric motor — powers the gorilla’s walking movement via a gear system
• ✅ Rotating arm axes — the mechanical feature that produces the realistic knuckle-walking rocking gait
• ✅ LED eyes — glowing eye detail on the finished robot
• ✅ Integrated speaker — plays gorilla grunts and primate screams during play
• ✅ Step-by-step build instructions — clear guide from components to completed walking robot

Note: Requires 2 x AAA 1.5V batteries (not included).

Why Kids and Parents Love It

• ✅ It walks AND sounds like a gorilla — the combination of realistic rocking movement and genuine grunt-and-scream sound effects makes the finished robot feel alive in a way that purely visual robots don’t
• ✅ The gear system is the lesson — kids assemble the actual gear mechanism that drives the movement, so they understand exactly how rotational motor power becomes that distinctive rocking walk — real mechanical engineering, hands-on
• ✅ Arms on rotating axes mimic real gorilla movement — the design is specifically engineered to replicate the knuckle-walking gait, not just generic robot locomotion
• ✅ Glowing LED eyes add atmosphere — the finished Gorilla Robot looks great on a shelf and even better in action
• ✅ Builds logic, fine motor skills, and STEM confidence — assembling the gear system and motor develops spatial thinking and problem-solving in a context that feels like a challenge worth winning
• ✅ Part of the Clementoni Science and Play Robotics range — designed to make robotics, coding, and STEM concepts accessible and genuinely fun for kids aged 8 and up

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the walking movement work?

The Gorilla Robot uses a gear system connected to an electric motor to drive arms mounted on rotating axes. As the motor turns the gears, the arms rotate in a way that produces the gorilla’s characteristic rocking, forward-moving walk — mimicking the knuckle-walking gait of a real primate. Kids assemble this mechanism themselves, so they can see exactly how it works.

Does it actually make gorilla sounds?

Yes — the finished robot has an integrated speaker that plays gorilla grunts and primate screams during play, adding a layer of realism that makes the experience genuinely immersive. It’s one of the standout features that sets this kit apart from purely visual robot builds.

How does this compare to the other Anibot robots?

All three Anibot robots are part of the Clementoni Science and Play Robotics range and share the same build-to-move concept. The Viper Robot slithers, the Spider Robot walks with a leg mechanism and has glowing fangs, and the Gorilla Power rocks with a gear-driven arm system and adds sound effects — making it the most multisensory of the three. Each is a great standalone build, or collect all three for a full robotics range.

Is it a good gift?

Absolutely — it’s a brilliant gift for curious, hands-on kids aged 8 and up, especially those fascinated by animals, gears, and how mechanical things work. The sound effects make it particularly impressive to show off. A great choice for birthdays or Christmas.
