I think there is a lot of cool potential for a toy robot based start up that adds a layer of polish to a Mindstorms style interface. Something that focused more on a narrative than the educational aspect of designing robots. Imagine small rc bots that could be improved with new features/functionality via "expansion packs". For example you could have a base bot that you could add tank treads to or go with a biwheel design like these bots. You could design games to play with the robots like a sumo experience, a rockem sockem thing with touch sensors, etc. different designs would give advantages in different games. Combine addictive World of WarCraft style character customization with a relatively affordable robotics platform and you have a decent product for the $21B toy industry. Someone should do this for YC.
