HEXtravaganza at Mastermind Toys


Hexbugs are BACK at Mastermind Toys Stores and at mastermindtoys.com!

What is a Hexbug you might ask? Hexbugs are really cool, robotic bugs that react to the environment around them! We have 4 different styles to choose from in a variety of colours!



First off we have the Original Hexbug !(9.95) This little critter scuttles in a forward motion. However, if you clap once, this Hexbug shifts backwards and changes direction! It also changes direction when the front antennae encounters an obstacle in it's path!







Next up is the Hexbug Ant ! ($11.95) It is very similar to the Original but is MUCH faster! The Hexbug Ant has sensors at both the front AND the back. When it encounters an obstacle it bounces back and heads off in another direction.





Then we have - The Hexbug Inchworm ($19.95). The neat thing about the Inchworm is that it requires the use of a remote control! It goes forward, backwards, spins on its base AND can change directions. The Inchworm works on TWO different frequencies (A or B) which means if you have more than one you can work 2 at the same time OR put them all on the same frequency and they will move in a synchronized motion together!



The Hexbug Nano ($9.95) is one of the coolest things you will see! Using only vibration these little bugs ZIP around, bounce off obstacles, flip over, flip back to their feet and continue on their way. Nothing can stand in their way!


Now, no Hexbug Nano Collection would be complete with out the Nano Habitat ($34.95), which is BRAND NEW from the Makers of Hexbugs! Because the Nanos like to scamper all over the place, this enclosure allows you to keep your Nanos safe, but also allows you to create your own topsy-turvy Nano universe! The best part is, the Hexbug Habitat comes with 2 Nano Bugs to get you started!




Hexbugs are a great introduction to robotics and without a doubt these little robotic bugs are a blast to play with and really fun to watch! Each style comes in a variety of bright colours AND they come with batteries so they are ready to play with as soon as you get them home!
