Dancebot Dancing Robot ($42.49; regularly $79)
Dancebot is…a robot. Who dances. What more do we need to explain here? He’s cute as a button, doubles as a speaker, and is packed with a smart dancing algorithm that can listen to audio, then bust out some fly moves synched to the beat. Dancebot will even read bedtime stories to your kids. There’s a reason this was fully funded on Kickstarter…because nobody turns down a dancing robot. Nobody.
Robosen T9 Programmable Robot ($339.99; regularly $499)
If you ever wanted a Transformer that was seriously a real Transformer, then you’re gonna lose your mind at the T9. One of the “coolest robot toys ever made” according to The Verge, this AI-powered bot uses more than 3,000 state-of-the-art components and 22 proprietary servo motors to pose, walk, transform, do cool stunts, and generally just be the kick-assingest toy under the tree this year, hands down. He definitely wasn’t on a CNET’s Coolest Robots of 2020 list for nothing.

PocketDrum Bluetooth Drum Sticks ($101.11; regularly $139)

Connect via Bluetooth to the AeroBand app to learning drumming or improve your skills with immersive gaming modes. Successfully funded on Indiegogo, the best part of the PocketDrum is you can plug in a pair of earbuds and no one else will hear one snare bash or cymbal crash as you Animal out.
PocketGuitar Bluetooth-Enabled AI Guitar ($29.71; regularly $40)
If you’re rather go sans guitar stick, then how about a tool the size of a guitar pic that teaches guitar playing and practicing instead? Learn the basics of rhythm, all without the burden of a full guitar as you strum and play chords out of thin air. And when you use it with your PocketDrum, they also double as foot sensors for kickdrums and other foot-driven percussion.
