My daughter is very interested in robotics and I have a question

My 7 year old daughter really wants to build robots. She is always bugging me about building one. Last year I bought her an R2D2, and, although she likes playing with it, it doesn't seem enough for her. She isn't shy with computers and loves to play video games. I'm contemplating buying her the Lego Mindstorm 2.0 system and I'm wondering, would this system be too advanced for a 7 year old? I'm a software engineer so I can help her with it, but will someone this age be able to do things with it on their own? I'd love to buy it for her, but the last thing I want is something that costs $200 to just occupy closet space. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.
