Lego Education Spike Prime Set
Mad at Lego for Mindstorms’ demise but not mad enough to stop buying your favorite building toy? Mindstorms will live on, in a limited fashion, through Lego’s Education division as Spike: a collection of building sets featuring Technic components, sensors, servo motors, and a central brick computer. Designed for schools to teach the basics of robotics, the introductory Spike Prime Set is a bit expensive at $384.95 (expansion sets are available, too). You’ll also have to worry about the chance that Lego might eventually end support for Spike as well.
