Replacement Cubes for Cozmo
While many of you have come to know and love Cozmo over the years, it is possible that you may be in need of a new set of replacement cubes. Over time the cubes may have become damaged in any number of ways, or even lost.
Unfortunately, Cozmo replacement cubes have been hard to come by, and the only place I’ve seen them available was on Amazon, through the Anki Store. That is, at least until the recent release of Cozmo 2.0.
Now that Digital Dream Labs has re-released the friendly little robot pal, as well as a new and improved Vector 2.0, they are also providing replacement Cozmo cubes which are sold individually.
Cozmo cubes for sale are available, and compatible with Cozmo 2.0, as well as the Classic Cozmo and the limited editions versions.
