On clearance at Walmart (likely at Amazon as well), so quantity is limited!....

Yeah 80 is absurd, it says right on walmart.com that msrp is $49.95 which this is still a decent discount on. The bits of plastic arent worth very much but the kit is designed very well and there is a THICK book of projects to do that teach kids about every single component in there. $25 is a steal for that much content.

Thanks. This looks like it'll be fun for my kids. I'm hoping to get them into FIRST LEGO League soon.

The extra manual with projects 62-230 isn't at the link in the normal manual. It is at:
https://elenco.com/sca200-manuals/

The old product page can be found at:
https://web.archive.org/web/20230...rcade.html
It has information on reprogramming the microcontroller block (including the original code), but the programming cable appears to have only been available as part of a discontinued kit. It is likely you could connect a USB-to-TTL cable in its place - though you would need to be technically inclined.
