The Gakken EX-System is a series of educational electronics kits produced by Gakken in the late 1970s. The kits use denshi blocks (also known as electronic blocks) to allow electronics experiments to be performed easily and safely. Over 25 years after its original release, one of the main kits from the series was reissued in Japan in 2002 and now you can get it here! Instruction Manual Included is in Japanese. English PDF Instructions available.

  • hey man cool video. is there any inputs or output for maybe makin music with it ?

  • OMG I used to have one of these when I was a kid!! =D

    This was the BEST TOY EVER! (Well, for nerdy children anyway. lol)

  • I've never seen one of these before, just wondering what are those blocks he took out and put in?

  • I have no idea about electronics but this kit seems a good way to learn.

  • Hello ! Today arrive my EX-150 to Argentina buy you, need one copy user manual in english please !! Is posible ? if is posible send to me email ? (cv(at)mipw.com.ar) Regards, Juan

  • Is it made in japan

  • Í think i got mine in 1976, i still got it, an i also have all the extras for it. It was a great toy

  • 2:13 i hear my bro playing medal of honor vanguard lol

  • lol he said his bday was that day! 2/18. the date of the fid was 2/17

  • I had this exact kit about 30 plus years ago when they where first issued.

    The radio circuits worked very well especialy with the attena hooked to the central heating system! I didn't realy get my head round much more than the basics of the difference between diodes capacitors and transistors and transformers etc. Its easy to follow the patterns on the blocks and diagrams to make all the experiments. I've started building electronic kits as an adult. I wish i'd kept my original.
