Introduction

Hexbug Ant Micro-robotic Creature. Catch the high-speed Hexbug Ant if you can!  This Hexbug may look like a big ant, but it s actually a very cool little robot built for speed!  It s the fastest Hexbug yet zooming forward on its 6 spinning wheel legs until its front antennae and rear wire sensor detect anything in its path and direct it to reverse direction.  Let your ant run free, race it with other ants, or create mazes and paths for it to travel. There is always a new and different way to play with the Hexbug Ant! Real fun with real science. Easy to operate with a single power switch, the Hexbug Ant features a translucent shell that reveals its high-speed gear drive and let you see it in action. A great way to learn about robotic science, regardless of your age! Ant measures approx. 2"" long, with batteries included.
