Default Insect Nano Robotic Bug £2.87




Only cheaper on play.com
as all sellers on play.com have to do free p&p

search Nano Bug.

What is amazing with these is the vibration
gets the legs going
and it gets up - never the same way.
Works on a watch battery - comes with it.


Amazon sell them but from a fiver

Same product
on amazon is £5
http://www.amazon.co.uk/HEXBUG-451-1..._cp_k_h_b_cs_1

"The HEXBUG Nano is a tiny, collectable,
micro robotic creature that uses the
physics of vibration to propel forward and
explore its environment. Powered by a tiny motor,
and 12 fixed, angular legs, the industrious critter
traverses the ground beneath it and quickly navigates
through the most complex mazes.
Possessing an uncanny sense of balance,
it can even flip to its feet and zoom forward
when turned on its back! When coming into
contact with an object in its path,
the energetic insect will switch directions
and scurry away on a new path due
to its persistent random behaviour."


Just over 1 and half inches.

No
as try a new location
and the fact it never goes the same logical way.


For you
you would build a race set and take bets
and fix one lane with a bump
so your one wins
