The new Hexbug Crab.

Hexbug Nano & Hexbug Ant: The two newest items from the Hexbug line are extra fun! The Nano is a cool little dude that skitters around like a cockroach! (only cleaner!) He is the lowest price Hexbug at $11.95. The Ant is this reviewer’s personal favorite. It has wheel type action instead of legs, so it really moves! Hexbug Ant senses if it runs into something and will back up until it’s sensor contacts an object, then it will move forward. Tons of fun for just $13.95.
